18 Neville
04 Yobo
16 Jagielka
05 Lescott
20 Pienaar
23 Fernandes
26 Carsley
21 Osman

So its Rodwell and not Anderson, lets hope we don?t get any injuries!

Lee Watters

Yeah according to evertonfc.com it is now Rodwell....
I hope Moyes doesn't play Fernandes on the wing again!!! Play him in the middle and let him dictate play...

Michael Kenrick

Thought it should be Rodwell. Thay have changed it now on the Offical Site.

Villa just equalised...damn!

Dan Sedlak
8 Posted 11/05/2008 at 15:14:12

Man City Red Card!

Chris Cook
9 Posted 11/05/2008 at 15:23:24

How many cards do City need for us to leapfrog them?

Dan Sedlak
10 Posted 11/05/2008 at 15:24:10

I think that is all it takes if we keep a clean disciplinary sheet.

Peter Pickles
11 Posted 11/05/2008 at 15:25:23

Richard Dunne of all people! Brilliant! He’s a toffee at heart. Reckon him and Bally are up to something.

Or probably not.

Dan Sedlak
12 Posted 11/05/2008 at 15:28:42

YES! Sod the FP league!

Joey Brown
13 Posted 11/05/2008 at 15:25:23

GOAL!!!!!! The Yak!

Trevor Tannenbaum
14 Posted 11/05/2008 at 15:29:31

40 yard Fernandes free kick. Sign him up now before someone else does !!! COYB

Santosh Benjamin
15 Posted 11/05/2008 at 15:32:04

The Yak scores.....come on.................

Viv Sharma
16 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:07:42

oh crap...

Rob Chan
17 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:08:42

That'll be right to sum up the season... penalty but not our way!

Tom James
18 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:29:22

With City having a man sent off and a booking, surely we?re now in line for the Fair Play place?

James Marshall
19 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:28:49

COYB, one Joleon Lescott.....

Greg Maddox
20 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:30:49

Great goal Mr L....2-1 COYB!!!

Andrew Steen
21 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:32:02

Come on You BLues!!!!!

Super Joey Lescott !!!! Even with a dodgey knee

Viv Sharma
22 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:30:55

you must feel like a bit of a tw@ for being so negative eh!?
Arteta wont leave, nor will Moyes, we will buy a CM (would be nice to have at least one at the club!) and we will win the uefa cup... ok, so im on a high, but can you blame me!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! C O Y B!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nathan Stroud
23 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:27:13

COYB!!! 2-1 Lescott superb!!

Viv Sharma
24 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:36:23

Good point Andrew!
Imagine what he’ll be like next year! Moyes will have to set him a 20 goal target next season!

James Marshall
25 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:39:57

A penalty!!!!!!!!

James Marshall
26 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:41:45

Get in!!!

Alex Taylor
27 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:43:26

We’ve waited all season for that!

James Marshall
28 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:45:09

Oh Tommy Tommy.....I’m enjoying this.

Andrew Steen
29 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:45:30

Sorry just come round.....i passed out when somebody told me we had a penalty!!!!

Anybody know where i can get some of the injections that lescott is having!!!!

Andrew Steen
30 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:46:53

Villa are drawing!!!!

Not that it matters

Andy Stone
31 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:53:45

UEFA Cup football it is!!!!!

Alan Farrell
32 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:57:14

Moyes out!

Steve Parry
33 Posted 11/05/2008 at 16:51:05

Get in! Our best performance in 2 months, all the boys played well, and what a time for Manny to have his best game.

A couple of quality midfielders and a striker who can complement Yak and we could go further next season. COYB!

Jack Baker
34 Posted 11/05/2008 at 17:03:23

COYB!!! Not surprising Lescott scores again. At last a win on the last day of the season. Last one was way back in the 95/96 season with a 1-0 win over Villa.

John Hall
35 Posted 11/05/2008 at 17:05:30

Stuck in China working. How did we finish up. Anyone please.

Rish Atcha
36 Posted 11/05/2008 at 17:06:57

Also, how much money are we going to get from Man United winning the Premier League title? Part of that Wayne Rooney clause or something?

Lee Watters
37 Posted 11/05/2008 at 17:10:13

Jack, we beat Portsmouth on last day last season... we got a penalty that day too!

Neil Pearse
38 Posted 11/05/2008 at 17:09:22

3-1 John!! Fifth place ahead of Villa by five points. The table does not lie. Tremendous achievement!!! Well done boys!!!

Mike Coates
39 Posted 11/05/2008 at 17:09:32

LoL.. Stuck in China, I’m living here :) and didn’t get to find any feeds online to watch and the missus had the laptop til now.

What a result! :) Yay.. cept Howard didn’t get his clean sheet and Yak didn’t get his 22nd but 21 close enuf! :)

Mike Coates
40 Posted 11/05/2008 at 17:12:07

Weren’t we vying for sum record of no penalties in a season.. We went and ruined that one (lol) :)

John Hall
41 Posted 11/05/2008 at 17:14:44

Neil, thanks a million. Great result.
Enjoy the party boys. Time for bed here as past midnight. COYB.

Jack Baker
42 Posted 11/05/2008 at 17:22:06

Actually Lee Watters, Pompey was our second last game last season - our last match was a 1-1 draw against Chelsea. And a penalty too - dreams do come true!!!

Alan Codd
43 Posted 11/05/2008 at 18:39:33

I have just got back from the game which I thought we could have won by much more. Fifth place and Euro footballl again next season!!!

Dave Turner
44 Posted 11/05/2008 at 22:11:39

Didn’t we beat Newcastle at home 2-0 on the last day a few seasons back?

Anyway a good way to end the season, can’t wait to be back in Europe.

For those who (like me, can’t find highlights links or use Everton tv coz of where we live, ie. China)

I found this highlights of the game.

Although, for the first goal, this link is better :)

"Didn?t we beat Newcastle at home 2-0 on the last day a few seasons back?

No - we beat them in our last HOME game of the season. We sealed 4th - then lost 0-7 at Arsenal and 2-3 at Bolton

Amazing really - but a great win to round off the season - now about that contract...
