I'd go no further than to say solid first half.

If we hadn't put this effort in after last week I'd be kicking off, but agree we havnt really had a chance yet and could easily be 1 down if that pen had been given.
 
He brushed his foot and Rameries embellished it. He could have scored if he stayed on his feet. His prob not ours.

Playing well, with a couple defensive fails and the score is tied. Just like every almost every other Chelsea Everton match over the past few years. Saha would have scored already with the kind of service Baines is sending in.

Osman is playing well on D and creating runs for Baines.

Its going to be 1-1 and on to pens.
 
Terry went the lenght of the pitch to get to the ref but where was Neville?

Neville escorted the ref off at HT...he knows what Chelsea will do if they get to him.

To be fair, the ref should have just let the incident go and not booked Ramieres. It's not necessarily the case that a foul not given is a con. Too many refs think it's either/or. There's a more sensible way to look at these incidents: a coming together with no intent.
 
What's with Jags and these own goals? We we win corners we should just position him with his back to goal and tell him to aim the header in Howard's direction. We'd be unstoppable.

Ah fair do's, hopefully he told Dowd not to listen to them.

And you're right on the pen, no dive, possibly a foul for Howard lunging at a player across his path but no contact.
 
I'd like us to not panic. I've seen times ehen both our center backs are ahead of the half way line with Neville and Coleman as the last men. One of the CB's loses the ball and it starts the counter.

So even if it's 0-0 heading into 75 or 80 min...stay calm lads, keep playing with your full concentration, you'll create one chance maybe but then make the most of it!
 
Chelsea will be straight into Dowd at HT telling him he got it wrong on that Ramires incident. I bet Dowd makes up for it 2nd half.

Big time.


Happy with the performance even though Chelsea should be 1 up.

Same old, same old though. Turn up for the big teams...wonder why we dont do it to the smaller ones...ba-humph.
