How boring are we to watch?

colin hughes · May 9, 2015

Went to only my 3rd game of the season today as I don't have a season ticket and can honestly say that was as boring football as anything I witnessed under Walter Smith when I held a ticket.When do we ever look like scoring 4 or 5 in a league game? Can't remember the last time we hit four in the prem.Surely we can't put up with another season of that slow clueless football. Whenever a team defends deep we have no idea how to break them down. I am not forking out £38 again to watch that team untill he's gone.

Very.

It's not great at the moment Colin but when we get it right we're great to watch. Man Utd an example.

When we're at home against a team setup to stop us playing though, it's more than likely to be grim...

It's crap when Speedo Man isn't there. He at least gives everyone a laugh.

Your right boring and predictable.

It wasn't great day but it was miles better than the Walter Smith days.

We bothered attacking for a start.

Grim today, but oh well, season finished in Kiev.

Need to go back to trying to outscore teams like early season, not arsed if we concede a few

It's been a bit of a painful watch this season, before United which was a relatively entertaining performance, when was the last time we were honestly entertained in a match? Maybe Arsenal at home last season?

People are forking out a lot of money week in week out to be bored to death. I'm not saying we should go Kamikaze style but a bit of urgency and a quicker pace wouldn't go a miss.

Remember when we put 7 past Sunderland? Great day that. I miss us snotting teams!!

We can be very boring on occasions...but today wasn't one of them.

I thought it was a cracking little match and how the heck we didn't take sommat from ut is a mystery.

If the OP was so bored by that game that he felt moved to come on here and start a thread about it then I suspect football ain't his thang.

Arsenal at home this season was boss as was many matchs in europe.

That sunderland one was a one off

Did someone really say that today was worse than when Walter Smith was in charge?!! How quickly people forget we played some games under smith with 6 defenders and 4 centre halves and our creative players consisted of Idan Tal and Niclas Alexandersson with zero pace until radzinski arrived.

SingBlue · May 9, 2015

Didn't we go on a run under Smith when we had 5 or 6 games at Goodison where we failed to score, and 0-0 was therefore the best result? Can't recall many of them as I think I slept through, but I remember the one (season opener?) when John Collins missed a penalty. Was 0-0.

Today was, to coin a Walterism, "Disappointing". But boring it wasn't.

I am always nervous when i watch us play, so it's never really boring to me, i guess you have to ask a neutral about this stuff.

Our football can be grim sometimes, but not today, i think we just were unlucky (Both goals, Mccarthy shot etc) and ref played his part too.
