Match Thread Everton vs Newcastle - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[hallamblue]

Remember when richy got taken out by that Burnley grock and was out for over a month yet VAR did naff all

It’s such a stupid and inconsistent contraption

Never mind that, Shelvey scissor tackled Gordon at their place, a far more dangerous tackle, and only got a yellow.

 

[Flynnthistle]

Didn't Shearer make him MotM too?

Not sure, but he was clear for me, despite Iwobi getting the winner after doing nothing for 80 mins. He had a far greater impact on the outcome of the game, if he did say that, he was right for me.

I genuinely think the referees have banded together to give us awful decisions purely because we had the nerve to question one of their awful decisions.

They bang on about how they don't have any referees because they get so much abuse, just don't be a corrupt piece of s*** and we'll be sound.

 

[Flynnthistle]

You don't understand why Iwobi got motm lol

Ffs fella we are in a crap street and he's just scored the winner and earned 3 points. Begovic, Keane and Allan were the best 3 players but Iwobi gets motm and rightly so cos he scores the winner.

You have a point mate.

But for me he contributed more to the win than any other player on the park, the win was achieved with his dominance in the air, some brilliant blocks, his timely interventions, that platform gave a guy who had done nothing for the whole game to steal it for us.

I get it, but the best player on the park for the duration was Keane for me.

 

[Jeff Jones]

Hans Segers dodgy goalkeeping kept us up. There was talk of him being involved in match fixing that season and our second goal on the last day looked very savable.

If the game was fixed why did Wimbledon lead 2-0, and if it was just Segars why didn't he let some in in the first half?

Didn't exactly push the boat out. lol

Yes I agree he was the best player on the park mate, but for the absolute desperation, if Burns had scored an og he would have got the motm. It was a superb finish tbf as well, great move, great goal.

Ran himself into the ground too.

Special shout out for Richy too but Iwobi was excellent. Been good in general under Lampard too.

Goal aside i would've had Allan MoTM, no other player has benefited as much under Lampard than him.

This evening half an hour before the game I had to sit the wife down for what I described is a serious situation and means a lot to me. She doesn’t understand football, doesn’t watch or follow it, that’s why I love her. I’ll be 42 in a few weeks and said to her the predicament we find find ourselves in and that if we were to be relegated. I had the match on and at the end she was jumping up and down with me and said ‘Everton are the best I love them, can we go to Goodison?’
Looks like she’s hooked, I’ll try and put her off though so I don’t get blamed for the misery we have to go through ? UTFT

 

[marnie]

I'm currently in tenerife.
Sorry but just couldn't watch the game.
Instead I drank most of a bottle of whisky.
My best friend Steve told me what a great result .
Suppose I had better finish it.
Happy days blues!!! X

Are you and Steve celebrating in style mate.

 

[bluelord49]

Lol, considering he said F off at least 15 times when storming off, idk that I like our chances with that argument

If the game was fixed why did Wimbledon lead 2-0, and if it was just Segars why didn't he let some in in the first half?

Calvert -Lewin for the sublime backkheel that Iwobi only needed a toe poke to score....
At last an end product from Iwobi...
YES.....

IG it’s not a red and shouldn’t ever be one. Was not overly dangerous. Was not the last man. It’s a professional foul, and a yellow all day long as it should be. The decision was criminal and I’d argue that til the cows come home even if they do start calling it red more often in other situations. It’s a joke.

Imo it was only not dangerous because Saint Maximin kind of got out of the way and not because Allan took any type of care. My opinion is professional fouls where you absolutely destroy the man with no regard for the ball should be closer to red than yellow.

Now they aren't like that so to give him a red is a ridiculous decision.

In my opinion your opinion is wrong.

There wasn’t much to it in my case mate. Once I had kids I knew I had to stop letting poor results ruin my weekend; I knew that meant I wouldn’t be able to enjoy the highs as much either but it was a trade I was willing to make.

I generally swerve the games, and when I don’t I always say to the missus that “I’ll turn over when we’re 2-0 down.” Unfortunately they seem to call my bluff more often than not these days!!!

Once my lads are a bit more grown up I may decide to reconnect with the club. Who knows where we’ll be by then!!?

I hear you mate.

Our love for the club is a strange thing.
