You would like to think we would have got the shout for the tug on Beto mate. For the first time ever I thought the ref had a really good game. Tried to keep the game flowing and got the majority of his calls right.

Yes ref was actually decent, no complaints really.

The only positive for me today was that there were no league points at stake.

Starting to feel genuine hatred for these players. Stealing a living.

Maybe you should stop watching than..

Painful watching - yes..

Hatred - sort it out !!

The season isn’t over, we can concentrate on the league now.

3 games in a week, a squad on its bare bones, 120 minutes and a shoot out … that’s draining.

The penalties were shocking, but taking everything into account, it’s amazing we even got to that stage.

We need a few players back, a few players out and couple of players in, and a couple of players need to step up and others an attitude adjustment.

As a club we can ever stand up and kick on or fall apart.

In a season that has seen a lot of progress that may have been the low point of my time as a Blue

Cheer up mate, could be worse, you could be a Palace fan and seen your team knocked out and out played by a team from the Conference North and that’s with the fan boys on here, world class manager too.

I get that we are only a few points from 5th like a previous poster has said and we are pessimistic. The cup isn't just bonus territory and we have somehow become programmed to think so. It's nearly 40 years since last league and 32 by last trophy.

We just make first round exits in now annually, it absolutely stinks of useless mentality. Our best chance of a trophy and getting better players.

Feel so sorry for our younger supporters who have never experienced a trophy.

Sorting through your off sock drawer is more beneficial than watching us at present.

I'll stick that on my to do list. I'm incredibly deflated

I don't care anymore, I really dont.

I know Barry and Dibling are young but that’s a lot of money for what we’ve actually seen. Rohl has been hurt and transitioning to a new league but he has gotten off to a slow start and has a not insignificant mandatory buy.

Aznou probably showed more today in a half of football than some of them this season, given his fee.

 

[Lloydaldo11]

Taking a step back here.

Shunting Moyes is only 5% of the problem.

The problem is the core of the team is still the turd brought in by previous regimes and what’s been added are “potential” that unless they bag 30 goals in their first season then they’ll get rinsed.
Academy needs a complete overhaul too.

Whole setup is chronic. Even with a new ground, we can’t sort ticketing out with 100s of empty seats again.

Buy some footballers, we can't play.
We get passed off the pitch every week.
Poor management and crap recruitment.

Your optimism is an inspiration.

Everton fc the club, team and manager who never fail to disappoint their supporters.
Remember the saying up for the cup? Doesn’t apply to us anymore.

Beto and barry can't kick the ball properly

I think it would send a positive message to the fans if Beto and Barry were fined a months wages and it was donated to EITC.

Not being able to kick a ball 12 yards is gross misconduct for a professional footballer.

 

[Swartzy]

You think the penalties were embarrassing.

Look at the posts in here..

Shameless !!!
