• Maybe Pickford should have dived in rather than sliding, he still might have conceded a pen though. He absolutely had to make a challenge of some sort after Branthwaite (not Tarkowski or anyone else, it was Branthwaite) let it bounce past him. Shitty way to start the match, mistakes happen, but we still pulled even twice from being behind. Great spirit from the boys to never say die....
  Neil Tyrrell in Blues come back twice to claim a point and keep Europe in sight
• Yet another game we are chasing and no sign of Dibling, if any team are crazy enough to give us most of our money back we need to take it. Both Dibling and Aznou need moving on as Moyes doesn't have faith in them, can see us taking a loss as a pair but hopefully not a huge loss. As for the debate about the goal I'm amazed anyone has looked past Pickford, his fault as he never needed to make that foul. Braithwaite was occupying Thiago, Tark was busy pulling his caravan, Myko looked the only one who made a genuine attempt to stop the goal, fault lies mainly with Pickford, and it would have been nice if Tarks done the basics of following his man, maybe even stepped up his jog with a sprint....

• A good point given that we gave them a goal start and a deflection late on almost cost the whole three points after looking the better side for the most part. George, only on for fifteen minutes looked great and surely should get more time next week against RS. Whilst a Euro spot would be nice after some disappointing seasons it's more important to give some of our youngsters like George some longer playing time in readiness for a much better season next time. With the guidance of an old head like Moyes these youngsters could be the turning point in Everton's fortunes....

  John Collins in Premier League — Matchweek 32
• My condolences to Gerry Quinn. ...and also for our fleeting dreams of Champions League glory, anyway I'm glad we blew the cobwebs out after all that time off, so we're fit and revved up to drop another set of must win 2 pts. Can't blame Moyes for that poor start (or can you?) 3 different players watched the ball bounce 3 times down the centre and into the box. Is it just the way the League is this year? For seemingly months, I've watched us win lose and draw and we're still, last time I looked - 8th! I'm not expecting any major changes to our version of Newton's 1st Law of 8th place Inertia. Notwithstanding the fact that in theory we could still scrape into Europe's (nay the world's?) top competition with a points total that starts with a 5 ffs. I think that any Euro involvement is a problem waiting to happen with our small squad. I wouldn't mind, just this once, putting what is apparently the worst rs team for a decade or more to the sword and let the ...

• Brentford are a physical team. Lots of crosses and percentage balls. Other than the school boy error for the first we coped well with their crosses. A quiet game for a few of the team. Why didn't kdh take a shot when clean through? I just didn't understand that. We showed fighting spirit and deserved a draw at the least. George needs more time on the pitch. Mcneil has done well recently but it might be time to give George a start. The shite haven't got a right back so give George a chance. ...
