Yep,the blessed Walter!

Who was always disappointed lol

Who was always disappointed lol

"Very disappointing"

 

[twoblue]

Yep,as I said originally the parallels are very similar mate,we have some very decent players this season but they are for one reason or another just not gelling,ps wasn't materrazi sent off v Sheffield weds at goodison when he was in tears at the side of the pitch?

Thought it was forest but you might be right.
In that moment you knew he wasn’t sticking around for long

 

[Khalekan]

No , he was intimidated by Tranmere soddin Rovers instead !

lol

 

[Khalekan]

Remember when he played 5 centre backs in one game.

I will never forget it.

Against Derby County.

Let down by big expectations as always. Myhre started off really well in goal as well and then Gerrard ffs.

Think it was Coventry wasn’t it? The game where we needed to win to even give ourselves a chance going in to the last four games. Campbell got two and proceeded to put himself in our hearts forever.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Collins was a massive let down.

Still is.

 

[Brendan Janus]

I don't know about the rest of you but this season is beginning to look a lot like that season,we had a newish owner,we spent a lot of dough that summer on the likes of Collins,materrazi,dacourt etc but somehow things just didn't gel on the pitch,i don't think we even scored a goal at home for six games,the football was drab and boring too,it was a long old season,just seemingly like this one, apologies in advance for sounding like a figure of doom!!

To be fair, super Kev bailed us out at the end of the day, otherwise I think we would have gone !!

 

[Brendan Janus]

Still is.

More interested in the clubs supply of hair gel !!

 

[Brendan Janus]

Yep,the blessed Walter!

He should never have sold his chain of family butchers shops !

to be fair didn't moyes play 6 once? haha

 

[Roachey11]

Remember being at the Sheffield Wednesday home game that season when we got beat, I thought we were gone after that.
Not sure what was worse this season or then. I think back then felt more exciting that's for sure.

 

[TGW89]

In 1998-99 we drew 0-0 at home to Liverpool, extending our unbeaten run over the shower to nine matches.

We don't even have that now FFS.
