we’re not out of the woods yet, but that was a good weekend. 4 points, at least 9gd and a game in hand over our rivals.
Survival is as much a mentality thing as it is anything else
What you can NEVER do in a situation like this is rest on the laurels, and that goes for everyone, supporters included
Until you're safe, you're not safe, and you can't drop the intensity one little bit until you're over the line
It's been SUCH a drag having to maintain that kind of intensity for, now, four seasons on the trot, and it's no surprise that Goodison has been so flat for most of this season
It wears you down, but you have to just pull up your socks and get on with it in the hope that you once again survive and next season you finally kick on and finish higher up the table with less stress attached to it
I hope we stay up and next season we don't need one of these threads, but right now it's a survival season and we need to get it right once again as a fan base, like we've done the past three seasons
