Best Everton that moment

Recently the 'Everton that' trope has done the rounds a lot and has made me laugh the bitter-sweet 'just brushed my teeth and eaten a cola bottle' laugh of a long-suffering blue. At the same time it has made me think of the other 'Everton that' times in my life, the weirdly boss things about being a blue.
My old school mate from Barcelona who I knew when I lived there as a kid came over last season to watch Liverpool v Chelsea. The match was cancelled so I took em to Goodison to watch the fa cup game. I warned them (in true 'Everton that' style) that we'd probably get rolled over at home, but Lukaku did a Messi and I was the proudest blue a visiting Spaniards had ever seen. They made me look a right teet that day.
Anymore for anymore?
 


Does it have to involve us because Juve just had an Everton That moment in the CL.. 2 wins in 9 finals?

If so Man U feature heavily - 1985 going for the treble, 2016 semi - all those chances missed, 94th minute penalty conceded this season just gone, 2-0 up and lose 4-2 at home, 1-0 up and lose 2-1 and miss out on Europe (thanks IIRC to a dodgy pen for them), 0-3 down - back to 3-3 and lose in last minute - these are all classic ET moments.

When I think of Spurs away I think of how many times we score first and lose there. When I think of Chelsea away I think of countless heroic performances but late equalisers or winners deny us 3 or 1 point..

Carlisle home and away

All those horrible opening day defeats (usually at home) against nothing sides..

Sporting Lisbon at 2-0, Dukla Prague at 2-0.. dodgy refs in Europe (Villarreal, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Greece), Thomas, Atkinson, Clattenberg, Poll.

Denied European football - technicalities, rule changes, Heysel.. The ball is not quite round.

Like my old man said - "never been a lucky side have Everton" - two world wars.. Houlding, Labby (semi final 1971)

Tony Kay...

Ryan Moore just had an ET moment when the 40/1 shot came flying up the outside and stole his Derby race win.

Not sure to be honest old age etc
The game is recall we was winning 2-0 and got beat 3-2 at home ?
It was on tv
Walked out the house at 2-2 started cutting the grass cos I just knew the inevitable

You might be thinking of when we lost 4-2 after Manuel Fernandes scored a screamer, Phil Neville own goal that day I think.

The Bilyaletdinov one we won 3-1, sure it was the day Rodwell scored and ran into the Gwladys with his top off. The big dream.
