Everton that.

So much to criticise, but where on Earth was Coleman going for their third?

I think that was Cleverley in no man's land.
Get a grip.

They're celebrating what they thought was a last minute winner after travelling the length of the country and spending a lot of money.

Our defending cost us the points, nothing else.

eh I've saw time put back on the clock for field invasions in college football often to the same result. If you want to tear down the goal mouths wait until after the match.
 

Can't be arsed to drift through the whole thread but I presume someone has already slated Martinez's failure to make obvious changes.

Should have brought D-Foo and Kone off at the half for Mirallas and Lennon. Cleverley should have never seen the pitch today. This was a perfect game for Ossie - get a foot on the ball and get the ship righted. I also had the feeling that Howard was going to gift them a goal down the stretch - he's palpably shaky.

Good on the Cherries for battling back. Hope that point comes in handy later.
 
Think I agree with some of the Kone talk.

Should have been taken off. Arguably shouldn't play games where he will have to help Galloway out. Because he doesn't.
 

To be honest I don't think you can blame any one player for todays poor result. This result just proves we're not good enough to finish in the top 4, I can't think of any other team conceding 3 goals so easily in the top six. We just didn't come out for the second half and conceded 3 stupid goals. Not even a Sunday league team would concede a goal the last 30 seconds after scoring. I think like most Everton fans today I'm just in shock, complete and utter shock to lose 2 points in such a way in completely unforgiveable. However in some ways it could be a good thing for our fans in the long run, if you expect us to mess up games it's not that disappointing when we do. Only we can concede a goal in the 97th minute when only 5 minutes of time were given, Everton aren't we.
 
It was a fantastic first half performance and an equally bad second-half performance. We lost our best player in McCarthy and we switched off - which is down to experienced players not doing their jobs.

I won't slate an individual, because I don't think it was down to any one player.

A point there isn't bad, it's just the circumstances that are annoying as we'd looked to have got past this 'throwing results away' thing this season. In fact we've not actually given away a lead so far as I can recall???

Need to go into Tuesday using that result as a kick-up the backside. Think they perhaps got too arrogant, and as much as a last-minute win would still have made them realise that they need to wake up at times, then I think a last-minute draw makes emphasises that point more.

Need a strong display.
