It seems like a while since we've had a "winnable" game in the league, bet you all can't wait to find out how wiley ex pros are going to predict this one before spunking a tenner on Saha & 3-1.
Deceptive this one though, Birmingham City are in some fine form of late and the other ginger haired Scotsman in the league has got them really solid, and grinding out results. Like we were back in the good old days. They have won 5 out of their last 7 with the two draws being against Man City and the team they are now level with on points, Liverpool.
So, before we all start getting into the Christmas spirit it would be prudent to consider that this is not an easy game at all. Humbug.
But, who are we kidding, David Gold was an absolute prick who once commented on Birmingham being a better attraction than Everton about that shabby dog Savage. And then there's Brady, who despite a large skull, would have got it around the time of Peschisolido.
This of course adds nothing about their team and players whatsoever, although I'd imagine a very warm return to Goodison for (Super) Lee Carsley and not so-heartily-but-he's-alright-so-we'll-clap-him McFadden.
Partizan Walton have found their fight again, Distin may be fit which would likely result in Heitinga moving back into midfield where he's looked most comfy and Rodwell being allowed to get that week on the couch which he's been promised, presumably to flick through Sky, have a casual afternoon shuffle over Sabrina the Witch and watch obscure sports but never X-Factor. Or more likely to sit on the bench. Cahill also returns from suspension although it remains to be seen if he'll start or if indeed Moyes starts with the 4-4-2 in place from the second half on Chelsea, I doubt it.
This is the opportunity to start to collecting three points and really get stuck into them from the first whistle, whilst were bemoaning our position in the league and that when the players come back it will be the cats pyjamas (thanks Bill) time is ticking on and failure to collect full points from games like Stoke y Wolves have put us in the position we are now as much as anything else.
Christmas player name puns for this game are most welcome, Lee Carsleigh is the only one I've got so far. Oh wait, and Louis Sahohoho.
Apologies and Merry Christmas to you and your families, pets and mistresses.
GET BAD SANTA ON.
