unfortunately, barring us winning every game and one of villa, liverpool, city or spurs totally self destructing that makes 7th place an utter dream.

Even if one of them did destruct, you'd think on the evidence of that, that birmingham would deserve it.

no excuses today. We were simply not good enough.

Howard and Neville were dross. Any kind of pressure and we resorted to some antiquated hoof ball. Our back four hasn't looked right since Irvine left.

Mentally we seem to be very weak. Pathetic performance today. Not one of Birminghams players are good enough for Everton but the manager installed a fighting spirit, a tactical edge and they well deserved to win it in the end.

Moyes needs to a fundamental look at his team, with regard to mental strength, because when they grabbed a goal back, we shat ourselves for the final 60 minutes,

Not good enough, and only the second season under Moyes were I feel we have gone backwards not forwards.
 
******* [Poor language removed]!!!!

Basically gave Brum the belief they've got that European spot (if it opens up) and they deserve it for not giving up. Back pages will be lit up with how good Brum are.

Yet again we give them 2 shots on goal and they score. We dominate for large spells and dont capitalise. Credit to Brum. Whatever they do, they do it right. Better side than us? For what they do, yeah.

Season's officailly over for me. Moyes made some shocking subs again today.
 
When things don't go right for us, we tend to have little experience in which to deal with it. Not a good thing if we want to improve.
 
I'm feeling alright now about this. I was not when they equalised! An away point isn't too bad...and this season I have been way more pissed off than I do today!!! Way way more pissed off.
I do however question some of moyes' decisions. It's no coincidence to me that cahill started and we didn't play as well. Bench may have been a better idea for him today.

Birmingham aren't a good team at all, as we showed by absolutely outclassing them for half an hour. If we hadn't conceded the first goal when we did it could easily have been 5-0. They were shitting it, so close to being a pounding, **** sake.

It's basically us not taking the chances when it's given to us on a plate.

This game was a 6 pointer, were 2 up inside 30 minutes, most clubs would crack on and destroy them, but the fact of the matter is the possibility of taking that step up the league was lost on the team, and they [Poor language removed] themselves, again.

Birmingham are not a good side, good keeper, but not a good side. We've beaten better this year, disappointed as usual.

They do what they do, and do it well.

We cant play well for 90minutes....not even 60minutes. They're always organised.

We wont finish above them this season. Was their cup final at the end. Great result for them, gives them belief for Europe.

Everyday!!
 
Fantastic result, our side of bottlers that are all on their summer jollies manage to get a draw against a side that fought and battled and wanted to win, that showed desire and committment. MOTM to every player that went out and didn't give enough of a toss but still managed to get a point at a technically and athletically very average Birmingham side.
 

Birmingham would seem to be a good side. Not a very good side, not a nice side to watch, but a good side. I think in general we are a better side but you've got to give them credit. We've played them 3 times and haven't beaten them once. They're where they are for a reason
