@everton: Martinez does add that striker @CMcAleny will travel down to London with the team after returning from injury. #WHUvEFC

Wonder if that means Kone will start and Lukaku given time off.

Kone may start, but Lukaku is hitting some sort of form again so I don't think he'd want to take his foot off the gas

McAleny is the 19th member of an 18-man squad and is there as cover in case someone crocks themselves beforehand or Eto'o becomes distracted by, er.......

I like when he says stupid [Poor language removed] about our players and manager. It's that much sweeter when we beat him.

What a cheeky bell Fat Head is, having a pop when things aren't going right for a manager. Bet he would have loved other managers twisting the knife when he was struggling to keep up West Ham last year.

I know. Hope we beat them with a refereeing injustice too just to watch the fat blert fume afterwards.

' You learn to be more flexible as a manager over time' that right Sam? In your case time was 20 years of the same hoofball until the start of this season when you were instructed to change or be sacked, bellend!!!!

Far be it from me to spoil your fun in having a go at our opposition's manager, but I can't find too much that I disagree with in what he said.

"Whilst Everton are having a sticky patch at the moment, I'm not sure that is down to Roberto's philosophy," said Allardyce.

"It is about players going out and playing to the best of their abilities.

"Everton at the moment, because they have had the extra games with the Europa League, it has told.

"It is nothing to do with his belief and philosophy. They have found it difficult to cope with more injuries and more games."

As for the bit about flexibility, you wouldn't have to look for too long on this site to find plenty of people making similar comments about Martinez.

Having said all that, he's defo had more bungs than secondary school science technician.

Hes just giving it large because his teams won a few games, no one with any sense can possibly respect the fat fugs views, even his own fans have hated him most of his career.

thanks for that info. was thinking of parking at upminster and then getting tube in but that seems round the houses. brent cross sounds good.

Is there free/cheap parking there and will ya get back ok even if the games goes to extra time do you think because wil prob do the same.

There is a car park at the station, think its five pound something for the day. Ive been told Hendon Central is a good backup if its full, there is a free car park just around the corner from there and its only about a 5 minute drive from Brent Cross. I always used to use Watford for London games, but with this being a Cup match, Id rather use an actual Tube station, as the tube runs later. I remember we only just got back to Euston in time for the last train to Watford after that Brentford game a few years back. Dont fancy that rush again if it does go to pens, especially as West Ham is a fair way out from Central London.

For those who have never got the train to West Ham before as well, get off at Upton Park before the game, but walk back to Plaistow after the game. The queues at Upton Park are obscene, its about a 15 minute walk max to Plaistow, but saves forever queueing. Its the stop before Upton Park as well, so it wont be so packed you cant get on either.

2-1 the Toffs

Huyton Layne · January 12, 2015

Up for this.

Hoofball Sam can do one. Play nice footy 10 years ago with Bolton did ya? Then utter garbage until this season? Gtf.

Just whatever we do needs to be done in 90 minutes. No extra time please.

I just hope we win tomorrow - because that will get to him.

It has bothered him so much that we got the late equaliser.

It will be hard, just hope we pull through this game.
