It got a tiny deflection off McNeils shin on the way past, his right shin too just to shut up the haters

Fair enough, haven't seen the highlights yet only live.
we were gwladys upper and didnt see the deflection live, only just seen thew highlights and it isnt obvious a deflection but he claimed it straight away. Shame as Tim deserved it.

Of course I only got to see the first half streamed live and then had to commute home so saw the second half highlights. Looked a world better than the first 45. Tim and Garner seemed to combine well. N”Diaye is something!! O’Brien seemed solid. Can’t believe Tim didn’t get the goal credit!!

Nice to watch a 3-0 win, even given the lesser competition. Not the cleanest game but I'll try to just enjoy it for once.

First game I’ve enjoyed for a long time .
Perhaps we need to drop a few divisions to become competitive again.
I’d much rather watch this every week than what we have been watching for the last few years.

First 45 minutes had me filled with existential dread for the rest of the season. Second half made me feel a bit better 
Incidentally was sat next to a boss old fella who turned out used to play for Doncaster in the 60s or 70s (Evertonian though). Got to love the Park End old folk

All three goals scored without a hoof in sight.
I am away on holiday so only saw the YouTube goals…
Croatia, if anyone is interested.

Careful. You might end up with Matty's ass tattooed on your face.
O'Brien.
Hopefully we punt Keane away on Friday to some desperate club for £8m. Replace him in the squad by holding a raffle amongst the fans before every game.

You know we would overpay League 2 players and make a mess of it.
It was slow and industrious first half, however it was nice to see some growing confidence in the 2nd half and some decent football, albeit against L2 opposition.
Ndiaye and Iroegbunam are two players I'm already becoming quite fond of, because they want to play positive football on the front foot - they try things.
McNeil looked a completely different person after 'his goal' (poor Tim), however if that can rekindle some confidence in him and rebuild form, I won't complain.
Beto worked hard and it was nice for him to score, yet I still have concerns about him starting over Dom come the weekend. As above, hopefully he can find form.
For me, Beto needs to concentrate more on his own play and movement rather than the opposition around him because it's losing him that yard or two.
It's the first win of the season, and at home too, so that voodoo is now off our back; hopefully, the squad can go into Saturday with some optimism.

That was the first game I've been to in a while, first time sat in Park End for about 5 years. I've missed the Everton da's huffing the whole game.
Complaining about passing it round the back only for Keane to hoof it to Beto which only results in more moaning and groaning.
Best shout was Ashley Young should have had a 3 match ban.
Doncaster only sang about Everton after using their 3 chants in the first 10.

At least Dyche might take the hints,
Mr reliable was booked within 2 minutes of coming on.
Maybe we could replace the old golden goal and replace it with the time of Youngs first booking.
