Match Thread Millwall v Everton, FA Cup 4th round, Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[deipnosophist]

To be fair, I've supported Everton all my life and I am starting to take delight when we 'Everton things up'. The comedy value is the only enjoyment Everton offer these days.

...that’s the approach I adopt. There’s a ‘watching an imminent train smash’ element to following Everton which appeals to my penchant for black comedy

 

[TheBigIguana]

Your take is wrong.

If you want your team to go of the cup because you don't like the manager you should find another club to support.

Especially because he isn't getting sacked if we lose. We're just out of the cup.

 

[TheBlueGibbon]

Bet you Oliver has said I can't give it despite seeing it on the big screen because it's not in the rules. Why do we always suffer bottle jobs from refs?

If that were the case he be looking to even it up.

 

[Jreverton1]

He scored a goal with his arm in a game where the entire point is to score goals without the use of arms. It has to be called.

If that was an Everton defender would it have been a pen?

Bet you Oliver has said I can't give it despite seeing it on the big screen because it's not in the rules. Why do we always suffer bottle jobs from refs?

And if it were Liverpool he'd be using his initiative to overrule the decision and getting widely praised for it.

VAR is only at premiership grounds

Why though? We’ve seen a replay of the handball from every possible angle.

 

[overkill]

Bernard would just get kicked by these yard dogs. Not the game for him at all.

He slips a lot on the best of pitches, here hed slip getting in the pitch.

 

[riddick]

its ok, when he gets 11 of 'his players' in we can judge him then.

until then he stays

18 . He needs an 18.

 

[MrD]

We've found our level. Nice one.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Our reaction to conceeding has been pathetic.

Mentally feeble.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Such a poor performance. So disappointing. We’re getting worse and worse.

 

[tsubaki]

We're a total joke. We can't even be professional againt a championship relegation side. I dont care if the goal came from a handball, offside or whatever. There's no excuses to conced. We've had two shots in over 85 mins of football againt Millwall. They have been full value for this draw. Even if we nick it this has been a disgusting showing. I dont care what anymore says that this point. Silva isn't the man and if he sees the season out then he'll be gone within a mouth of next season. This club is rotten to the core.

This isn't about professionalism. Look at United, where they reacted to Mou by bringing in someone who changed the way they play and have won eight games in a row.

We on the other hand have brought in four managers who have kept the way we play. Would any player be motivated in such circumstances?

 

[suey_11]

How can we have so much possession with so little threat.
Pointless football without any direction or passion.

 

[daza_1973]

Reminds me of when Oldham beasted us to a replay a few years back

 

[Jebus_lives]

Our reaction to conceeding has been pathetic.

Mentally feeble.

Not for the first time

 

[Brollyboy1234]

Refs in this country though. Bin them all.

4th official there. Couldn’t be more useless if he tried.

4th “official” was watching The Chase
