It is shocking. Especially Jagielka. Awful. This is called relegation football.
I wonder how we can score a goal in this match.
Hopefully we will pick things up but we do look off the pace. Sad thing is we have noone on the bench who can change things!!!
We all knew this was coming, the club is a fucking joke
Are we honestly suprised after the summer?
I was hoping this would be like 0405 - everyone writes us off but we come out fighting. But this sounds simply awful, and at home against a very ordinary side
Wow, we’re trash. Both Phils look like they’re lost.
Not suprised in the slightest....
I can’t afford many matches, and I glad I decided to sit this one out. Am I really the only one thinking it’d defo the bottom half this season? If we don’t sign playesr soon, Lescott will be off in Jan:-(
I just wish Bill Kenwright would FUCK OFF!
I no longer believe that we can secure 13 points from our first five games. Blackburn should be a comfortable season opener but we look unprepared and poor.
If we lose this game I fear a heavy backlash. Where the fuck is James Vaughan?
This is fucking awful. 1-0 and 11 men behind the ball.
Anyone know of any streams where I can watch the match? On a Mac laptop, so can’t download sopcast
Never thought i’d hear my say this but... we should of signed Zoltan Gera!
what surprises me is people are surprised we doing rubbish ffs look at the team shocking then look at the bench conference standard we are in the shit big time arteta and the yak will follow jolean out the door in jan if summmat drastic doe,snt happen
and if that rumour about vaughn being fit but frozen out is true then get moyes the hell out of our club
Yeah! Get in! Well in Mikky LAD!

Just need to download TVU Player.
Its not good viewing though
We are playing like a team with no midfield. Saying that, we still have Arteta!! Get in, what a free kick.
geeeeeeeeeeeeerin nice one mikky need him n the yak on fire
Exactly Stef. I decided to sit this one out and stay with family and watch the Olympics. Anyone who is surprised by the performance is clearly deluded and unfortunately for us blues it’s the Everton management.
you can watch the game live on

you dont need to download anything either, decent picture.
1 - 1 at half-time (I’m sure somebody’s already said that).
We are crap but it was a stunning free-kick by Arteta....I knew Robinson would help us out!!
We have to thank Robinson for that. But it was a brilliant free-kick by Mikel. Our only hope will be free-kicks and corners. It says a lot really that a team like Blackburn is much better than Everton. We were with our backs against the wall in the first half.
A seriously good goal by Mikel at the death.
Let’s hope the players are more resilient and not such surrender monkies as so many of you in this thread, eh?
COYB!!!!!!!!
Thanks Glyn, Mark and Nilesh!
Watching it now :)
Baby!!! Yakubuuuuuuuu!!!!!
Goal!!!
Everton 2 Blackburn 1
Goal by Yakubu. Excellent cross by Arteta.
2-2. Brilliant goal by Santa Cruz. Blackburn hit back immediately. This may never happen. Really poor. Brilliant technique by Santa Cruz though.
You can tell we miss Carsley. Blackburns movement in front of our back line is frightning. Our defenders are over exposed.
Jason Roberts is excellent today. He left the Everton defence standing once again. Brilliant save by Howard though.
We need to put Baxter on. We need a bit of pace.
Arteta by far the best Everton player today. Osman and Jagielka are really poor. Rodwell has a decent game except for the one mistake in the first half where he gave the ball away in a dangerous position.
Cheers Glyn H. Have had to be putting up with Collymore and Nigel Pearson
Everton 2 Blackburn 3. Ooijer scores the winner. Fully deserved. Everton will have a very difficult season.
How the fuck are we supposed to attract any decent fucking players after then pile of horse shite? What the fuck did we expect from this fucking bunch of fucking inept fucking losers in the EFC backroom. Bunch of wank-faced fucking Muppets!
We were by far the better side in the 2nd half Jimmy, don’t be such a mouthy muppet
fucking joke. fuck of Kenright
Our defence looked lost without Carsley. Have to say though that the youngsters played well and we tried.
At least Spurs lost!
That was painful, fuckin painful
Could see it coming though
utter fuckin shite
Moyes looked really helpless. If we don’t sign any major players the next two weeks I can see him leaving right away. I don’t know what’s going on at Everton or whose fault it is the situation we are in but things have to change very very quickly.
RJ I am allowed to vent my anger and if you don’t like it I politely request that you go fuck yourself too!
Its a fucking joke absolute fucking shambles. Fuck off Kenwright you Cock!!!!
Mike M - Sorry just saw your comment. I always use http://livefooty.doctor-serv.com. As long as you get on before the game it seems reliable.
Robert Jones
How many points did we come away with against a mid-table at best team? Glad we played well in the 2nd half then, eh? Good to see you have such high standards as a fan!
Our hoof ball has really come on...
Robert Jones, we were by far the better side in second half?
Extremely disappointing. I'm at a loss as to why we haven't purchased any players at all and sold one of the main strikers we had. Whether it's the economic environment, Bill Kenwright or Moyes dithering, I think we've seen the best of the Moyes era last season. Everything we built for last season required just a final few pieces in the jigsaw to make it complete and yet we decided to lose a few pieces along the way.
My only saving grace from today was the performance of the two youngsters, I think they did themselves proud.
Rob, I don’t know what game you were watching. Perhaps you thought we were good in the second half because of how unbelievably awful we were in the first?
Jagielka was appalling; he can’t play in midfield again. I’d prefer Baxter or Kissock, or even Lescott. Anybody but him.
Baines didn’t look up to it either today, which is a worry.
I thought Rodwell showed potential, but he wasn’t half thrown into the deep end today.
We’re in big trouble. I’ve seen a lot of fans on here describe weeks this summer as ’massive weeks’ and then nothing has happened. Well, this is a massive week coming up now. And if nothing happens, I can honestly see Moyes walking. I wouldn’t blame him.
Surely no-one expected an Everton win. On the bright side the last we were beaten at home on the first day of the season we finished 4th. Roll on the good times : P. Hey guys if you dont laugh you’ ll cry.
It's my wedding anniversay today n all... 5 years Surely I deserved at least a point.
We all saw this coming and I'm sure we all fell the same. If Kenwight and Co don't sort it, we are in for an 'orrible season
Woe is me, an you lot too!
The one and only positive (there were a lot of negatives) is that Jack Rodwell and Jose Baxter gained valuable first team experience and they can build on this now Im not saying they can play every game but they can certainly start improving game by game as of now.
It’s remarkable that we conceded three goals at home against mediocre opposition with a total of SEVEN defenders on the pitch and a goalkeeper.
Just got in from the game.
Absolutely fucking awfull, and to think we will have to play nearly 70 games with this team.
If we last past the first round inthe cups that is ?
I feel at a loss.
’’How many points did we come away with against a mid-table at best team? Glad we played well in the 2nd half then, eh? Good to see you have such high standards as a fan!’’
I’m not fucking stupid, I know we came away with 0 points but JL was going on about how shite we played through the match even though we were the better side, I’m not happy with 0 Points but we deserved 3 points, Jimmy is going on like they sat down in the centre circle and drank fucking tea!
In the words of Dewey Cox..............WTF is Robert Jones on about????............we were absolute shite............IF THATS WHAT YOU CALL OK YOU ARE EASILY PLEASED...........
Oh yeah, Blackburn aren’t a mid table side at best, they’re a side challenging for 5th/6th place, in case you haven’t noticed that’s what we’re competing for.
That was very poor. Dreadful in the first half, which was rescued only by the brilliance of Arteta. A bit better in the second half while still looking vulnerable. Good play for the second goal but awful defending by Lescott for their equaliser.
We need new players in, pure and simple. It?s been the case since the last game of last season and it remains the case. It?s obvious to everyone!
It's a shame that this result has now compounded all of the negativity that has been coming from the club lately.
Terrible start.
Hold on. Why is everybody venting their frustrations on Robert Jones. He made a comment he’s entitled to it... move on.
Save the anger for Hillbilliy Kenwright and his board of fucking Clampetts!
Okay, some silly boys have got themselves banned. Jimmy Lee and David Dean for starters. THREAD CLOSED!
well said Jason Broome. They have been a disgrace to our club this summer.
Another massive lie to chalk up to Kenwright.
He said we?d be surprised come Saturday.
Well i fucking wasn?t.
it was only the first game of the season, don't be to disheartened; things will get better and plus we have an easy game next.

I wonder how we can score a goal in this match.
