My god how stupid is this thread becoming?

Deflections are just unlucky, would you prefer they made no effort to put their bodies in front of the ball?

Last night MOTD were praising Birmingham for doing pretty much what we did - our luck is out and there's is in. Not much you can do about luck.

your right mate, its all about luck. Birmingham are definitely getting there rub of the green at the moment, but it doesn't last forever...

I think this thread is just a messabout. I haven't seen one serious post.

anti deflection surface to air emirates balti pies????

none! Let me repeat my question, do you actually follow Everton? Surely you'd know which game changed our season, who's tackle it was and on who, nev on twinkle toes, he got booked but it was actually a legal tackle and the goalscorers (fletcher and felli) and also that felli's was a header if you followed Everton!

Hes saying the Spurs game changed our Season, a game in which Pienaar scored a deflected goal.

Hayee · January 10, 2010

But it didn't so he's wrong!

Thats up for debate, you think it was Nevilles tackle, some think it was the Spurs game.

Cheers Goat.

That was the game which Arteta got moved to the centre and we became good.

A game. As opposed to one incident. In a game where we scored no deflected goals. Unlike the Spurs game. Who play near Arsenal. Who scored 2 deflected goals. Unlike Us or Man U in the game where Nev made that tackle on Ronaldo.

The only thing I will say is that we picked up 3 wins on the bounce after the utd game whereas before the utd game we won just 2 out of 11.

hence why, for me, it kick started our season

Well, Moyse should invest some money on developing Tim Howard's psychic powers, so he can see 5 seconds into the future and know if a deflection is coming! (y)
