Aguero the difference I'm afraid.

Typical

robbed by linesman

 

[orly]

Absolute gang of cowards from the top downwards

20 minutes to see the game out and another two goals to the seasons tally

Martinez's mates on the whole game. Cleverley - one of the most cowardly, god awful performances you will see. Runs Osman FA Cup final one close.

Gang of utter melts the lot of them

Time for Martinez to leave EFC now. Shocking subs, destroyed the match on our part. Our defensive performance cost us tonight. I hate to say it, but I want him out now after that disgrace.

I used to think these were the best group of players I've ever seen at Everton. Turns out late 1994-1996 still takes that honour - and their nickname was 'The Dogs of War' :/

 

[bluelife]

Be arsed anymore

So then. Good fortune? A brilliant backs to the wall 90 minutes and even maybe a Lukaku winner or a Barks 35 yarder smacked off the bar. Who knows?

Then there's the usual. Totally hammered 3 or 4-0 or 1. Perhaps if that happens we can hold out hands up and accept the better side wins.

Then there's the Everton Way - the slow, sadistic, hurtful, luckless (in a Collina/Thomas/Clatt etc) way - where we hold our own (0-0 or 1-1) for 87 minutes before a horrible deflection off some poor unfortunate MoM Evertonian cruelly beats Tim Howard and we succumb in extra time to another and perhaps - in Villarreal style a late killer as we chase a winning away goal.

Which is it to be? History or Pain?

And, as surely as the earth rotates around the Sun.. and day follows night, Everton are beaten by a ghost goal.

 

[fozzy]

Koff Everton.

Kofff booby

Koff the officials.

Just koff!!

@davek will be happy though as at least we had a good cup run!!!

 

[Rossisboss]

His crossing was even worse

 

[jal123]

Wait until DaveK comes along to tell us all about bobbys cup pedigree and his big game mentality.

 

[mark warner]

Beaten the the better team, with a little help from the officials. Gutted.

 

[Ring master]

This bastards will lose in the final now.

the winner will be whoever gets the most dodgy decision,and that like you say will be pool

 

[Deleted member 28206]

We've now conceded 110 goals in all competitions.

 

[rbm]

Face it, we're piss poor.

Golden generation my hole

Too true.

Mid division no mark team in danger of slipping into relegation battle.....useless
