Everton v Crystal Palace. 16th April at 19.45.

[Duncan Disordely]

Gutted I'm not going tonight, was meant to be going to the original game but with being off for the United game this weekend I can't the the time off to travel over for tonight. Hopefully my Dad will enjoy my ticket.

Need to go full strength tonight, no point resting players for the weekend and then getting beaten tonight.

 

[Ron Burgundy]

I am buzzing for this.

It will be a 10 men behind the ball job for Palace, with Ince being the outlet for the counter.

If Johno and Sylvy can keep it water tight at the back, we should have enough firepower to nick a winner. I don't expect a goal glut though, as CP have been sound defensively sound since Pulis was brought in.

Come on Everton!!! 1-0 Lukaku

In years gone by, the Blues would draw tonight and lose on Sunday! It'll be good to have an indication of just how much things have changed.

Another bear pit required

 

[Sunderland afc]

I've gone for 3-1

Easy win. Palace are the worst team we've played at home this season and we still couldn't beat them.

 

[TheAlmightyFloater]

Even another own goal would do for me tonight. Don't care, just want that 4th spot.

To be fair mate, Sunderland are one of the worst teams we've played at home but we couldn't beat you. It's amazing what a bit of determination and a good defensive performance can do.

Been looking on the official site and it looks like there is less than 50 tickets available for tonight. Great going for a midweek game especially seeing as Palace did not take there full allocation and we have sold there end of the upper bullens to our home fans. Should be bouncing tonight COYB's

Fair point.

Still think you'll batter them.

 

[Pienaar's gloves]

Excited for this one, under the lights and all, very close to a sell out now as well!

 

[RFUS]

Fair point.

Still think you'll batter them.

I've been really impressed with Pulis' Crystal Palace and I'm really not so sure. If we do win it'll be a narrow one. Let's not forget they beat Chelsea recently and haven't even conceded in their last 3 games.

I'm hoping their players take their foot off the gas a bit, as they look pretty safe now.

Agree with this. A cautious tactic is way too much Moyesy style (and we are familiar how briliant that is, I'm afraid of). Starting with the best XI must be the right thing tonight. After 3-0 its more appropriate to make the subs.

Nice to see you've stuck around mate. "Once Everton has touched you..." Haha!

You're at home.

Take it from someone on the outside, three points easy, if you play like you did when I watched you play arsenal.

Guess if could get nippy bum time, the longer the game goes on and you don't score mind.

 

[Blue for you]

don't care how we win 1 nil 9-8 just win, if we win our next two we will get 4th
