Everton. The best team in the city of Liverpool.

[davek]

United and City fighting a bloody battle to the death for the league title; us and *them* arguing like two gummy pensioners about who's got most teeth left in their heads.

Merseyside, Merseyside, Merseyside!
Merseyside, Merseyside, Merseysiiiiiiiiiide!

 

[Phenom]

THEY ARE OUR AFTERBIRTH!

 

[Seamus Colemole]

Who needs Liverpool fans to bring us down when we have our own eh?

If we'd of both been knocked out of cup comps early on and then finished above them i'd be pretty happy too.

But to of seen them win 1 cup, and then knock us out of the other in a semi at Wembley means i'm just only slightly happy about finishing 1 place above them.

Oh and not to mention them beating us in the league twice.

Another thing I shouldn't laugh at today...but

 

[Groucho]

How much is 7th worth over 9th then lids?

Cheese on toast?

About £2.5m I think. That's a lot of cheese and a lot of toast

 

[Allezfan]

This is only the second time in my lifetime were we've finished above them. (Okay so third but second since I could actually speak and walk.)

Does it make up for us bottling the semi? Of course not. Does it make it a good season? Of course not. Does the fact they beat us three time and won a cup take the shine of it? Of course it does.

But it's still nice. It still gives you something to throw at the RS fans. If you can't enjoy this then you're going to be fecking miserable. We've got bugger all else to celebrate.

Basically it's like we lost our jobs three weeks ago and this week I found a fiver in a gutter, I would like to celebrate my good fortune without having people just shout me down with facts and figures about how if I still had my job I'd make that in an hour, anyway. It's true but it's also mean spirited to bring it up. I feel bad enough about losing the job already without it overshadowing everything else.

 

[Tubey]

Three derby wins and a cup pretty much nullifies finishing above them in every single way.

 

[heatmeiser]

Cups? Who gives a [Poor language removed] about cups?

I'd rather do the maggot shuffle with Prince Michael than lift the silver bowl above my head.

 

[chicoazul]

Exactly. It's not saying that we're boss again as we're clearly not.

But we finished above them and it will stop their crowing for a bit. Obviously it was all an FA conspiracy to let us finished four points ahead and Sir Alex Ferguson has meddled somehow but you can pipe them down real quick this summer by referring them to the league table.

Looking forward to it.

We need more analogies.

My turn again....it's like your house has just been burgled; but next door's house has just been firebombed.

 

[The Equaliser]

Don't think they'll be too happy about it like, even if they deny it. Which in itself makes it very nice indeed thanks.

Best of the lot, too.

JACKPOT.

Some are behaving like they want them to, moping about the defeats against them. Sad day when kopites can condition some of our own fans to act like they want them to.

I have enjoyed finishing 7th.

But like I said, it's bittersweet. I'm left contemplating various highs and lows, the good and the bad, things that went well and things that make you wonder what could have been.
