Is it ever right to want Everton to lose?

[Azza]

I never wanted Everton to lose, but I always wanted Martinez to lose.


How does that work?

I remember that thread about throwing the Arsenal game last season. I've never felt more embarrassed to be an Everton fan

I attended that City game and I actively wanted us to lose, the result didn't affect our position as we had already qualified for europe and it was for the greater good, I remember being horrified when Barkley banged that one in the top corner.

Thing is even if you want RK out losing to Sunderland wont do that.

Aside from that Man City, i really didnt see the benefit of Everton winning. There was one against Leeds about 15 yeas ago when Liverpool needed us to win so they could get in the Champions league, night match, i was 50 50 on that until it kicked off, then iwas like narr i want to win this, but we didnt anyway haha

I was at that Leeds game, that snake Barmby equalised if I remember correctly.

Nothing wrong with wanting us to lose that city game.

Celebrated like a madman when that went in, but then had a very sly smile on my face when City won as I was sat with 2 redshites who actively wanted an Everton win. If they ever actively want us to win, we're allowed to will our team to lose (as long as it doesn't cost us in any way).

I think, sometimes when the manager looses the respect from the players, they may loose on purpose.

I would say "yes", to your question. It is ok to loose, if it bring some constructive Progress.

However i do not feel that, that is where we are at the moment.
But i see your point

Only if one of your children is in goal for the opposition. Even then you should be hoping for a 0-0 draw.

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

Never.

It's never appropriate.

 

[AdaBrummieblue]

Never, ever. Frauds.

Not even when the rs are about to win the league.

Never.

 

[Azzurri]

I always want us to win, even if it helps Liverpool. Given that we sing "we don't care what the red side say", I can't really understand how anyone can think differently.

Because you're not from Liverpool. That's not a go, just the truth. You aren't surrounded by thousands of them every day.

Honestly on Sunday, while I didn't like the second goal I very masochistically enjoyed the third and fourth.

 

[Big Bob]

No never want us to lose but I did put all the money in my betting account on Sunderland towards the end of Martinez last season. Inevitable we were getting beaten that game.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Never. It shouldn't even cross our minds.
