I must confess to my sciatica starting to give me jip: I've been on the edge of my seat for days waiting for this fixture - the culmination of what's been the most riveting PL battle since welding was invented.
And what a denouement we are in for!!. Two giants of the game, both in a good moment of their football, going toe-to-toe in a winner takes all extravaganza.
And who, outside of Nostradamus, and possibly @davek, might have foreseen such dramatic season's conclusion?. Following a summer where most Evertonians were a little apprehensive about the early transfer business conducted by our intelligent looking DoF, and our svelte, easy going Dutch manager, we have... most all of us...been treated to such sumptuous football fare , that only the most gluttonous amongst our spoilt Everton tribe might complain of being unsated.
Maximum points against Huddersfield, Newcastle and Stoke, three historically fierce rivals of ours, present coruscating lustre to our season's achievements, but I would suggest managing two draws against mighty West Brom, occupy a shared pride of place .
Highlights beyond the Everests just mentioned?...too many to list were truth be told. And detailing the component parts of this coruscating season cannot do justice to the refulgent total the sum of such parts constitute.
Suffice to say, Everton have done us all proud this season and only some miserable curmudgeon might find ground for complaint.
And so we come to it - the great battle of our time : Everton vs West Ham at the Olympic Stadium- a clash of the Titans!.
Me? I'm on tenterhooks. I am such ajitter that I've necked a diazepam and 15mgs of Imovane...I hope I wake up in time for kickoff!!
