Perspective

[Noble Savage]

I only go to GP a few times a season when I get some time off work and I can make it up from Kent.
Regarding perspective, it's a tricky one. You can get very similar opinions sitting in the stands or visiting forums such as this good place.
It gets vastly different after the match in a watering hole or if you venture in the hell hole that is twitter.
What I do struggle with is how to perceive our loving OPs threads.
Are they bait or are they as deep as Greek philosophy?
Only the madman can answer that.

Just seen this post on here and made me think. Are opinions and perception different on here between those local who go the games and perhaps those who follow Everton from afar?



I guess it must affect how you view the game what you see and what influences you.

are you calling Everton bad?

I listen to the radio. Won’t pay for Sky. If I listen to 5Live I get a different experience to listening on TalkSport or Radio Merseyside

I'll attempt to combat that. I wrote a (rather meandering) blog article about 'The Fever' of growing up as a long distance Evertonian in the South Wales Valleys, link below...

Meandering look at long distance fandom

Enjoyed that mate. Well written.

Dunno mate there was a big slab of concrete in my face all game.

That was me last night, mate..

From where I was sitting in the MS right near the Street, I saw the corner swinging in then watched the ball enter the net.

But I didn’t see anyone jumping.

I think going to the match gives you an advantage where you can see the full view of the pitch (in most seats anyway) so when McNeil turns back you can see if he had a better option or not.

I also think you can get a sense of whether we are playing safe in general or not. I get frustrated when I’m sat in my seat usually freezing and I feel like we aren’t taking the game on and almost playing within ourselves. To me it just seems like we have a squad of players who are a bit mentally fragile so they play safe because they don’t want to risk making a mistake.

It’s either that or Dyche tells them 38 draws is better somehow than 10 wins, 8 draws and 20 losses.

Truely if I had been there last night in my youth - no changes at half-time - off for a pint - It was ale House Football - I am used to the School of Science football - I have been & seen some poor performances, but that was disgraceful in the 1st half .....

This is my perspective….. I now support Man City instead … so I’m now not affected by Everton shenanigans and can proudly look down on you all from my lofty position as a world champion

Is Ronny Goodlass still on Merseyside? He's absolutely diabolical.

Been to Goodison about 15x in my life, but follow a lot of games on TV here in Spain. Started following the club just in 2005, when I met my wife before the Villarreal game. Her family is a big supporter and season ticket holder of the club.

We always take the first half off to build excitement for all you lesser teams… second half we play a bit

Where are you from,Kind Sir?

Fans that only watch on the telly should hang on to every word that a proper match going fan has to say. They're the real fans, they really understand

Basically if you don't go the game you shouldn't even be able to give an opinion

Boooooooooooo
