We're on the march with Gordon's Army......

[Khalekan]

Remember 1977 of blessed memory.

When we reached the semi final the excitement was palpable and that chant rang out at every game in the lead up to the great Clive Thomas swindle.

A few years later we were Howard's Army and only the name changed.

Big Joe's Army was the cry in 1995.

We were Moyesie's Army in 2009.

It is a measure of the disenchantment currently gripping Evertonia that today, on the last home game before yet another semi final, there were no massed choirs singing about Bobby's Army.

Not even a "Tell me ma, me ma".

It is just heartbreaking the way the life is being sucked out of our great club.

I have never detected such pessimism among our fans on the eve of a Cup semi final

Said exactly the same at the Palace away game this week Khal - never known the away end so lifeless. Not even many comedy abusive shouts either!

If they can't get themselves up for a derby and a semi final whatever their misgivings about Martinez they should really be questioning themselves as professionals IMHO mate.

Been saying similar all week. Even with a relegation battle in 95, L4 was gripped by cup fever. There's just nothing but dread from us all about this year though.

We're on the decline with Bobbys' army
We'll all bottle wemberley
And we'll never shake them up
Coz he's lost the dressing room
And this ditty is as off form as the team.

Tailed off badly ffs, sorry

we need to send a message and sack martinez before the derby / fa cup semi final

its inevitable we won't win / progress with him in charge

someone needs to light a rocket and it needs to be lit soon.

Rocket on orbit?

Fifty years ago we were on our way to Burnden Park to play Utd. I was completely certain we'd give them a game and if the gods were with us, we'd nick it.

Fifty years later and I'd fear Crewe!

Amen brother.....

Strange that all this time after the Blue Union clown march to Goodison, we'll all be marching to Wembley behind another clown that nobody really wants.

 

[MACCA75]

A few weeks ago I genuinely fancied us to beat either West Ham or Man Utd comfortably.

Now, I can't see anything other than a hammering, we are woeful.

 

[paultheblue]

50 years ago we finished 11th in the league United finished fourth ,we hadnt conceded a goal in the cup, Catterick was attacked by our own fans for dropping Alex Young , The [Poor language removed] played Borussia Dortmund in the cup winners cup final (and lost).
grasping at straws ? probably but we have got to believe without dreams what else have we got?
