Ladies and gentlemen, I give you day time drinking and the cocaine.

I had to report him for his own sake unfortunately. Not a very nice attitude it seems

Well, I thought Dominic Calvert-Lewin getting through the game seemingly unscathed was a massive positive today.

He has still to take a shower.. So we will have to wait a few days!

if its any cosolidation @Alan Whittle is probably bored

Was driving back from the Lake District listening to Mrs Whittle ask for the hundredth time if we could listen to something else!

Should be interesting in the pub this week, couple of us blues, a fair few Forest and Leicester fans and one from Leeds…..

Ban the 'kin lot of them Pete

….nothing new today, dreadfully short on quality but we ground out a draw. Total inability to keep possession (remember watch Baines in tight situations, playing terrific little passes that looked so easy but were so difficult), it’s what players at this level regardless of position should be capable of.

Holgate starting was a concern, he thinks he’s better than he is and I hoped his ego might get him through but he’s pretty useless.

On the plus side, we got a point, DCL came back plus Doucoure is now available for the remaining games.

It’s grim, we might need snookers but we have a chance.

Sadly @Eggs I think we are down already

Knock on wood

 

[Connor]

That’s a good point if we can find a win to compliment it

Our away record is absolutely pitiful.

Painful watching this team trying to pass, create and score. Or just generally play football.

 

[terryefc]

Hard work watching us. A truly dreadful football team. McNeil or Tarks for MoM - just for effort but DCL did ok on his return. Pickford solid if largely untested. The rest were hopeless. Absolutely hopeless and I would sell the lot for whatever we can get.

He's like that every week and I report him every time I see him avoid the swear filter or openly swear at people and the mods do nothing.

Proper Everton, all over the place.

 

[Norwegian Cow]

I thought that our defence was poor just like the previous 2 games.

I actually wonder if Dyche isnt looking for a quick pay off.

Dyche should be fired even if we stay up

Everton defender James Tarkowski says: "We were quite disappointed, we're in a real battle and we need more. We had the opportunity to pick up three points.

"To grind it out with 10 men is nice but there's way more from us. We defended well, we had conceded a few goals recently so that's a plus but we need to do more and expect more from our forward players. We have some really talented boys but we need more from them.

"It has been a tough season and maybe we are losing that confidence. The players we have got are super super talented boys.

"The season has not finished now so I don't look at the table, there's six games to go."

Why doesn't Dyche do anything to positively effect a game? Every man and has dog could see that Holgate was going to get sent off, but beyond that we were never going to win that game the way we were set up, why wait until an 80th minute red card to change things?

You mean the obvious sub of Godfrey for Holgate wouldn't win us the right flank battle? lol
