I loved the barge by Johnny H. Wonder if that did put Cole off a bit?
Great result today, they played well, got the result. I was sat in a Manchester pub, there was only half a dozen people in, the woman behind the bar **** it when I screamed as Phil slotted the winner in...Well chuffed.
 
I'm still shaking here. Did we just do that?

I had the shakes for about an hour afterwards, awesome. Had to have a couple of pints and watch the rugby to calm down. Amazing day. Couldn't go in the end but watched in the pub with a mate, it was full of Chelsea fans and we went compltely mental at the end.

Picture. Thousand words.
 
Back from the game and watching the ESPN recording and it ends halfway through the second half of extra time! :@

Still, I took good quality video on my phone so I'll upload the clip I took from before Cole's penalty until the players went off onto my Facebook page and then post a link here (y)
 
Well what a game, watched the majority of it on ESPN HD, but had to go pick up my girlfriend in the second half of bloody ET!!! But still, listening to penalties on the radio was exciting...fairly sure i scared a few pedestrians as they would have seen someone jumping up and down in the car going crazy.

Well the match, i thought we played great. So happy to see Jagielka back, and other than nearly hitting it in his own net, i thought he played great. Arteta was back to his usual form, but the Man who takes the most credit must be Howard as he made so many saves, and even before the penalties would have gotten MoM.

The bad thing about the match tonight, well that was just our attacking, i mean Baines did well, brilliant infact, and his crossing was good, but Coleman got into so many good positions but his final ball was just awful most of the time, he just needs to get the ball in the box and not think about it.

The subsitutions were risky, i know Cahill was quiet in the game, but still, everyone knows what he is like, only takes him a second to score a goal, so it was a risk by Moyes. Bily coming on was a good decision, and we almost scored thanks to a fantastic cross to anichebe by him. Anichebe on i didnt agree with, and i didnt think he did anything really upfront, but Heitinga did a job, even though he still whimped out of the 50/50 challenges. He needed to take a look at Jagielka, because he had some immense headers and came out from nowhere alot of the time.

The penalties, i cant believe Baines missed! I thought he would have blasted it, and im still not sure which was best really, probably Nevilles, just so unexpected!

As for Baines' goal, well that was perfect timing, and was such a good feeling when it went in.

Well done Everton, especially to some of the players who havnt been in form recently, we really made a performance - but it was expected, we always do. Now we have to do something very rare, which Everton hardly ever do, BUILD ON THE RESULT.
 
B'ham, United and Stoke so far in the hat. If it came down to one of these three I'd rather avoid Stoke home or away than United at OT, tbh. It's just that type of season for Everton.

Couldnt agree more, im going to be more nervous against Reading than i was today.

I really hope we get United
