Michael Kenrick

Let's make this the Matchday thread once the coverage gets started. Great to hear Moyes acknowledge that the lads must improve on the shite produced in the last two dreadful derbies... Let's be having the red bastards!

Does anyone have a link the match will be on tonight? I will be at the theatre of Filth and my Dad doesn't have Setanta so I need to try and hook him up!

Cheers

Rob: tell your dad to go on justin.tv type in the game and follow one of the feeds. Then someone in the chat box will usually post a spot on link.

but you need to download ’TVants’from the ’software’ section of ’www.myp2p.eu’ first with this link:(http://misc.tvants.com/download/TvantsSetup.exe)
- very easy to do...

this is a live stream of setanta’s UK coverage and it is pretty good...

This is adress I highky recomand when you shall stream. I watch many Everton match on this page.www.myp2p.eu On the top of the web page you have to click on live sport’s, next step is football, and then click on the game you will see. It’s many link’s on the site that work’s, but I recomand the setanta link.

Have a nice game!

Not sure if its my internet connection but I went onto that TVants one and got Setanta playing. But it does freeze up every few seconds. This would cause too much agony watching it live so I will have to find a pub somewhere that’s playing the match

Torres and Keane start. Its gonna be a tough one boys.
Anichebe better show some promise tonight or he can fuck right off. If hes not up for it theres something wrong.

Not at all happy about Anichebe starting, would much rather have Gosling

I agree WIII, lets be havin the red bastards. Ryan Jones your dead right. Benitez is waitin for a batin! Only jokin WIII I know your point is that the editor in chief shouldnt be using such profanities but its derby night man. Its allowed. And before you go sayin its attitudes like that which lead to trouble, remember this is a site where it is ours to say what we like. Come on the blues

Steven Gerrard has just given a good interview with Setanta. I do not understand why he gets so much stick from Evertonians when there are so many other twats playing football (Wayne Rooney?). He does his best for his club, I just hope we give up on these horrible chants and beat them good and proper

How the fuck can Webb book Peanuts when he’s got his back to the play? In the replay you can see him turn around, see the lady boy on the floor and reach for the pocket. I fucking hate ref’s!

Kieran Kinsella

Thanks. I got it working. Anyone have flashbacks to Graeme Sharp with that Cahill speculative effort ?

Simon Hopper
33 Posted 19/01/2009 at 20:41:35

Business as usual: Gerrard and Torres are a right pair of nancy boys, the ref has booked Peanuts for being strong in the tackle, we haven’t really got on the ball like we can and Jags is having a consistent game. If only we had a quality midfield general we’d be the ones looking to go top with a win.

Nick Marsh
34 Posted 19/01/2009 at 20:44:12

Moyes has pushed the back4 up and we are shading it over the last 10 mins. keep it up blues

Simon Hopper
37 Posted 19/01/2009 at 20:48:25

We have really started to play like we have been recently in the last few minutes and it’s much better to see. We should have no inferiority complex here because how the hell they have sat tp is beyond me. We have had more chances despite not having the possession we could and we should be looking to win this. I can’t believe Skyrtl - he’ll probably cry because I’ve spelt it wrong - being such a pussy. He’s spent too much time around Gerrard and Torres. In all the build up we were described as the grafters and the long ball team but the only time we look to be troubled is when they play long balls.

Matthew K. Salem
38 Posted 19/01/2009 at 20:52:04

43 Posted 19/01/2009 at 20:53:42

We look pretty organised but aren’t offering enough upfront. Unless they bring on another midfielder I think we could push Anichebe further up and move him central, go 4-4-2 and give them some more to think about. Everyone is having a solid game. They have had one good chance but the little girl they play upfront missed it. Jag has had her in his pocket otherwise.

Neil Parsonage

Santosh Benjamin
45 Posted 19/01/2009 at 20:53:18

Can hardly believe what im seeing... everytime those fairies Torres and Gerrard (now also frog-eyes Riera too) fall down, Mr Webb earns his pay-off for the night by blowing for a foul. Pineaar booking... Webb was too busy looking the other way for any hurt Liverpool girls but still managed to give the foul.

From our side, I think we are being silly in font of our own box and thankfully have not been made to pay by them. We were lucky that Torres missed when one-on-one with Howard.

Hope we can produce a moment of magic and steal the game. Cahill looking lively and likely to score. Ossie is crap... get Gosling on please... COYB

Please get hold of the ball Blues! Doing so many things well tonight - much better fight than the last two Derbies - but we can’t afford to give them so much of the ball. Mikey needs to step up here and get on the ball. COYB

Simon Hopper
49 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:25:18

Bastard ref. Bastard Gerrard. Hope he doesn’t have Webb as a judge on Friday or he’ll be given compensation.

Please, please, please....Vic & Leon off....

Stu Gore
51 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:32:37

Anichebe should have shot..... weak. And Gerrard will be getting lots more hugs from men in prison.

Ray Lupton
52 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:32:40

Come on Moyes make a change, be positive and go for it

Robin Finlay
53 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:33:31

Shit... We need to make changes now. We?re missing the big man.

Simon Hopper
54 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:34:20

Get Vic, Ossie and Peanuts off. Put VDM, Gosling and Castillo on. Just hope we don’t go pointless long ball now. And get some reinforcements in for God’s sake BK!

James Gildersleeve
55 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:36:13

We look afraid to shoot. Get the kids on, Kissock and Gosling need a chance

Ste Lewis
56 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:40:09

Pienaar off? I think he’s looked lively.

Simon Hopper
57 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:37:24

Of course that was a foul by Peanuts. After all he shoved his back into the defender’s hands. Would still say we’d do better if we didn’t constantly play 12 men in Derbies.

Charlie Norton
58 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:38:45

Maybe another 10 years then lads, their too jammy these reds!

Viv Sharma
59 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:39:39

If we do go on to lose this, I would like to say that I would rather lose than have that dishonorable shit on my team.

Simon Hopper
60 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:41:09

I just think we need to change it up Ste. Peanuts has been okay, especially the pacy run, but something’s got to change. No point protecting a 1-0 defeat!

Brendan Duffy
61 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:42:31

Typical Moyes... too late to make summit happen, Osman piss poor.

Brendan Fox
62 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:32:40

Why the fuck doesn’t Moyes give someone a chance 10 mins left throw one of the kids on for a change?

Steve Carter
63 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:42:57

Harsh on Webb, Simon. He’s been the best we’ve had this year. We couldn’t have complained if Torres got that penalty.

Simon Hopper
64 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:43:53

Moyes as proactive as usual it would seem. Fail to see what we’ve got to lose freshening things up. We’ve got late goals this season and have to keep believing. That’s one ref off, just two more of the bastards on the pitch to worry aout.

Brian Waring
65 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:42:32

Simon, now you know why we are refered to as ?bitter blues?. How have we been playing 12 men tonight? Webb has had a good game tonight: 2 spot-on penalty decisions, and when there has been a foul for us, he has give it. FFS lads, lets not go down the "ref gave us fuck all tonight" road.

Simon Hopper
66 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:47:21

BEAUTY!

Brendan Duffy
67 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:44:49

Tonite's defeat just stating the obvious, we need a skillful midfield where we can at least cope technically against the sky 4, arteta very poor tonite as well, I wouldn't mind but the redshite were beatable tonite. Moyes has no balls... Timmy you beauty!

Simon Hopper
75 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:49:04

Brian, we get a free kick and we score. Simple. I honestly think lots of little decisions haven’t gone our way. The big ones have been evenly split. I might be a "bitter Blue", but after recent seasons that’s understandable! We have not had the run of the ball for many a match against them. Maybe I’ve been harsh but I’d rather look to blame anything other than the Blues!

Steve Ellison
80 Posted 19/01/2009 at 21:58:38

First posting ever. Spent first hour trying to find a quick link (I?m not that computer literate) finally found iraqgoals just as the accused popped up. Should have been a penalty,, Webb, but we should have got tight on the accused. Listening to a pisspoor Merseyside commentary until his Timship popped up. God I wish we had twenty of them we?d win everything including the boatrace. God bless you blues. The waiter's pansies must be sick as shit. Thanks for the links. COYB.

Jason Broome
81 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:05:29

Hibbert was immense! Possibly our man of the match!

Gavin Harris
82 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:12:17

Excellent performance lads, Jags again outstanding and so was every player.

I have to say the ref was excellent today, just what was needed.

Bring on Sunday!

Simon Hopper
83 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:08:42

Defence superb all night, Hibbo included. Cahill did what he’s on the pitch to do - pop up with the one bit of magic. Hope Mikey is encouraged to get on the ball more on Sunday and Pienaar is encouraged to run at their defence more. Brian, I honestly believe lots of the little decisions went against us tonight but I agree, after looking at the replays, he got the two big decisions right. In the heat of battle you’ve got to blame someone other than the boys in blue! And Ped, I was sat down all night but fair enough. Tonight it worked but I was hoping for subs to change things because we hadn’t looked likely in the last 15 minutes had we?

Robin Finlay
84 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:13:59

Hibbert did give the ball away to Riera for a chance but I thought he was solid and effective throughout the game, as he normally is to be fair. He doesn?t warrant the abuse he gets.

Paul O'Hanlon
85 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:12:38

Timmy?s a superstar. He?s not blessed with great talent, but what he does for us is invaluable. Heart of a lion, big game player and loves scoring against the shite at Anfield. What more could we want? Some more Cahill type signings please Moyes!

Steve Ellison
86 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:15:53

If you get the chance, listen to Alan Jackson on Merseyside. The Scandanavians are ripping into the Waiter! When the accused gets sent down, they?ll be really fucked! Manuel (who was laughing when the penalty wasn?t given) must have a face like a smacked arse! Let's destroy his weekend

Jim Slade
90 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:27:42

Ladyboy Luganis Torres can go fuck himself diving for that peno. Anichebe should have stayed on his feet. Jags was fucking brilliant tonite again. He made the right decision early on by not taking the ladyboy down when he missed the chance. Could have changed the game completely.

Pete Gunby
91 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:29:33

Deserved at least a draw tonight. Some posters were calling for Pienaar to come off ? get a clue. Pienaar?s work rate was tremendous, Baines was rock solid, and for the most part our back line was good. Osman was the only player that vanished tonight. Even big Vic put in a good shift.

Arteta?s free kick was perfect and Cahill did what he does best. It?s difficult to see what Moyes could have done differently ? our options are few. Maybe Osman off with 20 minutes to go. Great effort, good support and a decent result. Let's go out and beat them on Sunday. COYB

Jimmy Crack
92 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:38:36

I am very disappointed.

Liverpool were FAR from convincing.

Why would Moyes play a poor Anichebe on the wing when we had an actual right-mid? Where was Gosling? I would rather have had Andy VdM in on the right than Anichbe.

I’m also mad about Anichebe diving, very, very, disappointed. Every other one of our players played with dignity.

That being said, Anichebe, Pienaar, and Cahill were the only ones who played with any balls. Everyone else gave too much time, space, and respect to the Liverpool player with the ball. We made them look a lot better than they were.

I now know where Moyes gets the nickname "Dithering Dave". No substitutions (again) and no emotion from him until we were down. Also, it was obvious to everyone that we need a striker. With Yak and Vaughan out for the season, and Saha probably out for most of it as well, it should not have come as any surprise to him. He’s had the whole month of January to bring someone in, even on a short-term loan. I love Moyes to death, but he is immensely frustrating sometimes.

I can’t wait for Saturday. Hopefully Moyes plays the same full strength team, only with Gosling on instead on Anichebe. With that lineup and a little more confidence, we can end the bastards’ season.

COYB

Jim Slade
93 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:44:14

Absolutely, Pete, nothing Moyes could have done. Shows you how fickle fans are. Cahill didn't score that and fans would be calling him Dithering Dave; Cahill scores and he?s a legend. Can't see Yobo getting back into that back 4.

There has to be a striker out there somewhere. Big Dunc for the next 3 weeks anyone???

Jimmy Crack
94 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:48:41

Oh I also want to add:

Cahill is a living legend! Fantastic spirit and ability. Make him captain, Moyesey!!

MOTM: Pienaar

Jim Slade
95 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:52:20

What could he have done, Jimmy? In all fairness he had no options. I'm sure there will be a loan striker signing soon.

Sean Lloyd
96 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:52:10

Pienaar!?

Were we watching the same game?

Jim Slade
97 Posted 19/01/2009 at 22:58:24

Kaka has just told City to fuck off with theirselves. Any chance Bill? Wheres Mark Cassin when you need him.

Kevin Sparke
98 Posted 19/01/2009 at 23:05:32

Jag was outstanding... he’s turning into the best central defender we’ve had for many a year. How he’s not being considered for England I don’t know.

Arteta was quiet (for him) but that free kick to Cahill’s nut was perfect

Thing about the subs is - who could you have taken off... and more importantly, who would you have put on?

Chucking a kid on when you’re 7 minutes from the 90 and a goal behind is just stupid.

I don’t expect the same team to start Sunday... I’ve a feeling Moyes will leave Anichebe on the bench and play Gosling.

I’m putting next month’s rent money on 1-0 to Everton, Cahill to score the first goal.

Neil Eccles
99 Posted 19/01/2009 at 23:10:17

Anyone else notice how the fat waiter was so confident at 85 minutes that he took the ladyboy off and decided to play the last 5 minutes (plus injury time) without a recognised forward. Obviously hasn't studied Tim while in hospital, too busy writing his rant at Fergie.

Tony I'Anson
100 Posted 19/01/2009 at 23:01:03

Just back from the pub. 3 proper blue scousers, 2 Villa Fans and 3 off-duty plod watched it in the basement of a posh hotel bar at £3 a pint. But it was well worth every penny.

I think we made them look so ordinary it was boring. We knew all their strengths and had them well sorted. Just one effing moment from HIM again.

When Tim scored from Mikki's delivery I first thought of that article in The Times with their interview. Our goal has been practiced over 100 times, I can guarantee. It was textbook off the training ground and I bet they were bored shitless during practice.

Let's get our players more bored shitless at work and score another 3 of these on Sunday. That lot are not the RS, they are the OS (O = ordinary).

After tonight:
I am not happy.
I am not sad.
I am a bit disappointed.
I can?t wait for the Sabbath.
I reckon they are shiteingit now.
I have absolutley no fear of winning.
I reckon we will win that goddam FA Cup.
I am now going to stop.

Buenas Noches.

Tony.

Graham Holliday
101 Posted 19/01/2009 at 23:19:14

Personally, I?m absolutely delighted with a point...now let?s knock them out of the cup too.

One matter of concern... Baines is our only defender than can (or even tries) to pass the ball. The rest of them are still playing hoofball far, far too much.

But still, a reasonably good performance and a very good point.

Jimmy Crack, you need to lay off the crack mate! We?ve just put in a great team performance and come away with a point from Anfield thus denting their title aspirations and you're posting negative nonsense.

"Dithering Dave" kept faith in the eleven men on the park and in my mind ? scoring an equaliser with those eleven men on the park would suggest it might have been the best thing to do. If he had slung a couple of kids on for the last 15 minutes and we had lost would you have been happier with our manager? For all those above who were screaming for a substitution, surely on this occasion, the equaliser and the point vindicates DM?s decision not to make one?!

The entire team played well. This was a team effort with a point well deserved. If I had to give an award for MOTM however, I would have to give it to Leighton Baines. When we played the shite last, our defense was shite and the leftback position was our weakest spot. Baines was composed, competent and consistent. I really hope that Moyesy keeps him in our starting 11 (no disrespect to Yobo).

I believe that we must go ?all out? against them in the Cup. We really have nothing to lose. They looked ordinary tonight, if we had Yak in the side I think we could have won.

Great perfomance.
Howard had fuck all to do really.
Let's face it, it was a class goal from the whinging Gerard but can you honestly say that they had bags of chances and merited a win? It's another undefeated game and could cost that lot dearly when it comes the end of the season.
Jags and Baines were awesome and Piennar didn't stop all night. For fuck's sake give credit were its due and stop fucking moaning about everything you crying bastards. We have just took two points of them, we are undefeated in 7 and have conceeded 1 goal in 7 matches.

Yes, Jimmy, there was nothing on the bench really to change the game. I just hope Vic has seen the ToffeeWeb comments over the last few weeks and this has put the preverbial rocket up his rectum to make him try like he did this evening. Let?s just hope he can find yet another 10% on top of this on Sunday.

PS Did anyone think that Lady Body Torres looked a bit chubby.

Jimmy Crack, you?re off your head!

"I now know where Moyes gets the nickname ?Dithering Dave?. No substitutions (again) and no emotion from him until we were down."

Yes, and the 11 players he kept faith with pulled the game back to 1-1 ? securing us a great point! When a manager?s decisions don?t pay off, feel free to have a pop. But when the manager makes a judgment that the 11 players on the pitch have the best chance of grabbing an equaliser ? and they then do exactly that ? you haven?t really got an argument, mate.

Don?t often do this, but thought it was worth putting some player ratings out there for our brave performance today.

Howard - 7... a bit off his line for Gerrard?s goal maybe? Hmmm....

Hibbert - 6.5... defended well, very poor distribution, big heart though, like his spirit

Jags - 6... very solid for the most part... caught flat once, Torres should?ve scored on that, lucky not to concede a penatly, could?ve been a very different story...

Lescott - 7... not bad, some timely support to teammates in trouble

Baines - 7.5... if only he can get forward more. Has been criticised for his inability to defend in the past... looked pretty good to me today that?s for sure!!

Pienaar - 7... very good at times, needs a bit more strength in the body, occasional stumble when he could?ve been through..

Neville - 8... captain courageous, very big player out there tonight, intercepted, tackled, supported players in trouble, took the ball and distributed wide when needed a leader to stand up

Arteta - 7... solid, dependable, very very good set pieces all night, but not as influential as could be. Awesome free kick for the goal.

Osman - 5... for his potential probably the most disappointing of the night. Just got shrugged off the ball when we had 2-3 clear counter attacks that looked promising.

Anichebe - 6... give him a 10 for effort at times, but still needs a bit of polish. Not a bad effort...something to build on.

Cahill - 9... mate, he jumped and chested the ball down and tackled and competed for absolutely everything tonight. Can?t fault him for anything today. My Man of the Match.

Probably would?ve been good to see Gosling come on for Ossie at some point, push Vic up front. In games like this that are so tight, youth, pace and enthusiasm can sometimes crack it. Remember Cadamateri????

You have captured the thrill of the performance in your ?poeme concrete?. The shape of the ketch?s sail, the national flag of Nepal? Who knows.

I night to remember. God bless EFC and all who sail in her.

Y muy buenas noches.

As an Aussie, very proud of Timmy happy to have his name on my jersey. People bag him about not being the most technically gifted player, but he never gives up and is a constant source of big match goals and there is nothing more valuable than that.

For 1.5 million he has got to be Moyes’s best transfer. We didn’t help the shite’s permiership claims but it would be so sweet if we could knock them out the Cup

Just back in from the evening at my local pub in Rotterdam:

Spent the game watching with a Red from Bootle and the banter was terrific. Then No Fod popped up with his usual 25-yarder and thought we were dead and buried. Laughed when the Waiter took off Ladyboy Torres and 2 minutes later we nab the equaliser. On the balance of play I can’t argue with a draw, and much more pleased with the fight and the fact we tried to actually have a go at them.

Man of the Match could be anyone from Jags, Baines, Pienaar or Cahill. Jags was solid as a rock all night and did well to put Torres off the sitter he missed. Baines put in a superb shift down the left, always dangerous. Pienaar was the liveliest of our midfield five and to me is a lovely valve to have. Notice how much better Arteta normally plays with Pienaar on the field than without.

Then there’s Cahill. If I supported any other team I’d despise the obnoxious, niggly, little git. Winds players up like there’s no tomorrow. BUT,boy can he head. The other thing that I took extreme pleasure in is pointing out to the Reds in the pub the absolutely dreadful marking. Absolutely no RS player picked Cahill up at all, he hung around 3 yards out, moved in front of Hyypia and had a completely free header.

Can’t wait for Sunday now - I honestly think we’ll do them after the confidence boost in the late equaliser.

Re: Russell Buckley... I recently spent some time in Australia so I picked up a bit of the lingo... To "bag" someone, means to put them down or critisize as opposed to actually putting them into a bag!

Being a sarcastic shit aside ? we thank your country Mr Buckley for bringing us our Timmy. We all love the little bastard! (Something elso I picked up in Oz ? you can call someone a bastard in a nice way!!!)

115 Posted 19/01/2009 at 23:25:30

Pride Restored tonight ? a much improved preformance by the blues. We went to Anfield and had the 1st half by a country mile. More shots on goal, more corners, more heart. God my mates and me were PROUD BLUES tonitght. the RS fans started to leave the pub at half time. They were shitting themselves.

Everyone put in a good shift but we were surprised most of our play was going down our right hand side and none down our left. Second half and it opened up. Still the boys were fighting for the blue shirt, the left-hand side became more of a outlet for us with Pinner and Baines becoming more of a threat. It was still scrappy so Arteta couldn't control the game but loads of commitment from the boys. We were very happy

Then the GOBSHITE scores. Unbelivable but did our heads drop? NO, WE BELIVED and GOD did defeat Satan. Saint Tim and Saint Arteta combined to deliver us from Evil. COYB ? let's win this... but time ran out.

Next Sunday will be our day, confidence gained from today and may be a couple of the youngsters on to win. Let's live the dream. Well done to all tonight... more of the same on Sunday, please.

Torres was substituted. Lescott got forward. We pressed. We scored. And when Torres was called off, his face showed his respect for the manager ? who thankfully is an arsehole.

Ben Kelly
117 Posted 20/01/2009 at 00:03:25

Absolutely delighted with the point and can?t believe some people are not happy. The girl up front for them cost more than our team! Also can?t believe that Anichebe gets no credit for tonight (apart from the dive) he was excellent. Caused them all sorts of problems and actually ran with the ball.

Also amazed at people saying Arteta was quiet. Best derby I?ve seen him have by far. Defence superb all round. Only disappointments were Osman (anonymous) and in a way Pienaar ? he got around but seemed to give the ball away far too much. Maybe I was watching a different game to everyone else! Think the only thing to agree on is that Cahill is an absolute legend.

Nick Entwistle
118 Posted 19/01/2009 at 23:53:41

In the last third we had nothing. Anichebe should be ashamed of himself and deserves a bollocking. How about he goes for goal rather than a red card and penalty. Amazing. Very synical attitude for a 20-year-old.

Gerrard takes a clip on his right ankle and rolls around clasping his left knee. Ladyboy went down in the box too easily but couldn't disagree if ref gave it, just lame he thought he had to embellish it. Good for us though.

Now here?s something... If the same team is put out Sunday, I thnk AvdM on at 60 mins for Ossie or Anichebe would be FA Cup magic and put the cat among the pigeons! We need his... whatever it is.
7/10 on the pleased scale.

Jamie Hynes
119 Posted 20/01/2009 at 00:16:58

Does anyone else feel such a release tonight? All the wave of positive stuff about our chances tonight and then we pull it off? I was like everyone else when we got the equaliser ? I wanted the winner, but by God we scared the crud outta that lot. They looked frightened and that will carry into Sunday. They had 28 players on tonight capable of scoring and they managed one brilliant effort.

This is the time to believe, we are Everton! Knock us and take out our strikers, we will take the league pretenders on their own patch and show we are more than a match. Keane, Torres and Riera would pay for all that team but one Evertonian means more than 20 Liverpudlians (hell, that exchange rate was 20 years ago)!

Next step, the FA Cup. At the start of the week, I would have taken a draw and a win. We're still on. COYB

Matthew Salem
121 Posted 20/01/2009 at 00:52:37

Yes James, relieved as fuck. A draw is exactly what we needed to scare the shite out of the shite for the FA Cup match.

They looked vulnerable, insecure and plain scared. Keane, Benayoun and Riera are a complete waste of space right now. After pulling back and playing the way we did tonight, I know we can kick them fuckers out of the Cup. This was the game they needed to win and they are gotten to have conceded so stupidly. On Sunday, we are the more motivated side, because, let?s face it, the FA Cup is all we have left to play for. COYB!

122 Posted 20/01/2009 at 01:17:26

If I found Tim Cahill in bed with the wife...

He always turns up for the big games. What would we do without him!!

The midfield were at fault for Gerrard’s goal, 3 of them pulled to the right leaving acres of space for the twat to place his shot. Can’t blame Howard.

Lescott (at LCB) was at fault for losing his concentration, allowing Torres his chance on goal. Jags was desperately trying to recover the lost ground from RCB.

We missed Fellaini. The RS looked far taller than most of us, and no matter how industrious or speedy our little lads may be, their short legs can only take them so far. Or maybe it’s my TV. COYB

123 Posted 19/01/2009 at 19:33:23

Something other than that great result tonight - anybody notice that Richard Dunne picked up his 8th Red in the Premiership to tie with Viera and Duncan.

Just Checked - 8th November 1998 - Arsenal beat us 1-0 - and all 3 were on the pitch at the same time and not one red card - Although Dunny and Dunc got yellows.

Other news from that weekend was Liverpool losing at home to Derby. Some things don't change, others only slightly.

I love how I was worried all night about whether to sing and support Everton like I should as I was in Yates in Liverpool centre... but then the pub just started going sick with Everton songs... most of us in our neutrals.

We really are the best team in the world and the few Liverpool fans in there that were giving us all shit when they went ahead really did look like knobs when tim did what he does best. Gerrard scores important goals for them... Tim scores priceless goals for us. I love Everton and you should have seen my reaction when we scored in front of the dirty reds fans haha

Love you Everton and Have my tickets ready for the cup game

Great effort, blues.
