Imagine an Everton team doing that, or any English side for that matter? There'd be riots!

I would have smashed 1 in from the halfway line.

Maybe grabbing myself a few hatricks.

i'm guessing if they can't pay the players they can't afford to give refunds back to the fans ha

TBH if Everton were ****ed over by their own owners as much as Santander have been then they would probably be expected to strike. Good luck to them.

A few years ago they got some Indian owner who said he was going to make them contend with Madrid and Barca, but he turned out to be a huge scam artist. He lied about being an LSE grad and made fraudulent deals. Players haven't been paid in months, and apparently one of the players has been breaking into the training grounds because he doesn't have anywhere to sleep. Truly a terrible situation.

Sky would still manage to analyse it for 2 hours, but even worse Motd would give it longer highlights than our game.

Credit the solidarity of the opposition, they knew what was going on and weren't going to try and score.
