Would love to see the average life expectancy of an Evertonian in comparison to the average person.

Supporting this club doesn't do any good for your blood pressure

Yup. Think I've been grey since we drew with Coventry to stay up

I will be here. I have become very fond of the club not just because of James or Mina, its history is quite remarkable and inspiring. The fans are passionate, and there is a great community of them here at GOT, I feel part of it. Besides I have been told that once Everton has touched you, nothing is ever the same

Getting touched by Everton is on a par with getting touched by Josef Fritzel, you do you realise that don’t you

He supports Huddersfield Town, though. You'd have your head in your hands, wouldn't you?

Must win i feel.

Beautifully put Sas - hope we batter them and their cryarse manager!

Let's see if the blues take what they got from beating the rs at Mordor into the rest of our season - there's no excuses now, we simply have to kick on.

Thanks, Nath.

I agree, no more excuses specially when almost everyone in the team is now healthy. This is the time for them to show their worth and we know it is valuable. We need to win this match and a big win would be very satisfying!

You will also age rapidly and swear more

Hopefully I have enough good latin genes to endure the age punishment but the swearing may be hard to avoid

Hahaha, I didn't. But you do realize I'm a bit of a masochist don't you

I don't think anyone has the genes to withstand this ride. Still I've got an absolute maximum of only 50 years more of it. More likely 30. So I'm over halfway

6 points this week and for me we will be in the mix until the end

Glass half full

Lose this and it's curtains for top 4.

Glass half empty

...there has been no hard and fast study on this...but anecdotally, I would say that Evertonians age must faster than any other football cohort (with the possible exception of Spurs fans). The average life expectancy for a western world bloke is around 78 years. I would say Everton supporters pop their clogs a good 10 years younger than that

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Confused by this. The rs,Spurs, Villa, Arsenal all won. The only result that went our way was West Ham, and they were away to Man City!

Leicester could go into freefall as the injuries mount up for them

 

[Sharpattack]

We’ll know within 10 minutes of the start if we’re going to win. In the Fulham and Southampton games we just sat back and let them control the game from kick off. We laboured for the whole of those games and never looked like getting into it. Compare those games to the RS game.

Finally its game day!!

 

[maccavennie]

A real tough tactical decision tomorrow.

Just my opinion, but I'd be very tempted with DCL and Richarlison up top as a 2. But that would mean a 532 as I want Doucoure, Allan and Davies in the middle and that would mean no James.

We'll have serious options tomorrow with DCL, Rico, King, James, Iwobi, Gylfi, Bernard. Time for us to start turning turning screw on the knobheads above

6 points badly needed now...
