Today's Football 2015 / 16

Was only 1 match left after City. 5th place was locked in at kickoff, couldn't move up or down no matter what. That's why RS thought we'd roll over.

Arsenal had two games left to play, though. Technically if they'd lost them both and we'd won both ou,s we could have finished 4th.

Would never have happened (arse got all 6 points) but technically was possible.

Koff

Bottling issue aside, Stoke were the harder prospective final.

We've still got Man City to get past yet.

Exactly this. Wouldn't have relished playing Stoke. And for different reasons entirely (bottling it again) didn't want to play RS either. It could all be immaterial around 10pm to 10.30pm tomorrow, but I really want to get to Wembley this season and we're one game away from it.

How many APL points was this loss, err sorry overall draw, err net win worth?

Everyone knows the script.

Liverpool will get a handball penalty in the 118th minute that will be taken bounce off the keepers bum and go in.

Then the papers will gush over Klopps amazing progress.

It is obvious

if it wasn't exactly that we all knew it would be something, because; see below

I doesn't matter who won tonight, we just need to beat City tomorrow to be in the final. That is the whole point of the competition, and Everton should be the strong enough to win the cup no matter who the opponent is.

haha never know a team in sporting history to achieve so much by drawing so much. 14/17 pen wins, i bet that's been in the last decade alone as well probably - i'd be more scared of facing stoke, being totally honest.

You remember that we finished 7 points behind 4th place though right?

Beating city would have just narrowed that to 4 points.

yes but dont pretend you didn't talk about that scenario in the games leading up to the city match when you looked at the fixture list, the palace game ruined our chances but we all talked about that game, oh, and it was only a joke

before pen's came in I bet the horrible blerts never lost a coin toss decision either

Even in reverse order we're still crap

Watching a Liga MX match. Lad from Deportivo Cruz Azul has shirt number 298. BOSS!!....ha ha.

 

[Khalekan]

now the dust has settled I am in agreement with those who say that happen we prevail at City tonight then the RS are a better team for us to play in the final than Stoke.

That defence of theirs is as fragile as ours with only the goalkeeper getting into our team.

Let's do City tonight and put it to the test.

COYB.

Firm stance being taken by the club there

I suppose football is a "family friendly" activity now, so I can't blame her courting the family pound

 

[LinekersLegs]

Seems an odd match to schedule as a "friendly"
