I just hope that the day before Everton leave Goodison Park, fans from all around the world sing the spirit of the blues for 30 minutes straight, as loud as they can...

Zenith data systems final here we come


...Next year

Our firstborn was due that day, but my mrs was convinced he/she would be late. I was working in Coventry and she was back home in Wirral, so I went to Leicester v Brighton on the Saturday and my mate and his brother picked me up the next day to go to Wembley. He eventually popped out on the 22nd.

What I like is the Notts Forest Brian Clough connection with Dyche, there when Cloughie was in charge, together with Stone and Woan.

0-0

Good shout.

We've done mediocre-to-okay in the last 3-4 games so naturally due for a pumping.

Superb man !

@Alan Whittle thoughts on eze?
He's a hell of a player so there's no need for his diving

As I said, both incidents up the other end & I’m not home yet. However, any player, no matter how good, should not dive. My lad has seen them and said both were marginal / harsh.
I seem to remember Everton had a player banned for a deliberate dive at Selhurst. Can’t think of his name at the moment.

On the live text on the BBC website, they were just wishing for Palace to get that penalty when Eze was carded.

All Red [Poor language removed] on there that's why.

Well I fell for it. You steamrolled us around our area. Some delightful footballers you've got, who'll always get pens. dribbling like that in the area. My boring nil nil on the coupon was knackered inside the first minute.

You weren’t alone. My lad (a Blue) also said 0-0.

Niasse, and it wasn't even a dive

Danny Murphy might?

Do you think we have a chance of getting Phillips on a 6 month loan? Do we even need him. I got a question b fellow blues, what is one position that you think we need to improve?

What was a nice touch is that all the staff in the coffee / beer bar in the away end - arthur waite stand - all had proper Everton T shirts on - even though they were local people. I wonder if they do that for all away teams? Fella in front of us tried to buy one off them - - told him to come back at FT. That and the scarf on Bill's seat was class.
