Up the Toffees. Our staying up wee Toffees. Stop being so negative folks . We’ve got this . And Maupay could score . Who knows ? But just in case he doesn’t , we need Doucoure and McNeil to also score . Maybe even get a goal from Iwobi. And of course , we keep a clean sheet. Lovely Jubbly.
We’ve got this folks . Up the Toffees.
 
I think, as much as we do not wish for anyone to celebrate or relish another last day survival and thus use the pitch as their "celebration" or " commiseration/protest" it is inevitable that encroachment will occur in either scenario.
It's definitely happening. I can't see a mass (like last season) pitch invasion if we stay up, or if there is one then the mood will almost certainly be one of relief followed by anger as opposed to partying like it was 1999 last season. If we go down, then all bets are off, hence why the board will not be there to face the music.
 
It seems we have stumbled upon a perplexing phenomenon known as "The Great Time Freeze of Everton."

When it comes to relegation battles and nail-biting final matches, the laws of physics seem to take a leisurely stroll down Goodison Park. Time, that mischievous rascal, decides to play a little game of hide-and-seek with our anxious hearts. While the rest of the world may be busy adhering to mundane notions of chronology, we find ourselves trapped in a temporal purgatory

Minutes feel like hours, hours feel like days, and that 90-minute match against Bournemouth might as well last for an eternity!

There is a scientific explanation behind this phenomenon. When Everton's fate hangs in the balance, a cosmic switch flips, altering the very fabric of time itself. It's as if the universe wants to savor every moment, prolonging the agony or ecstasy until the very last second - like the cruel mistress it often is.

I implore all scientists to unravel the secrets of the "Everton Time Dilation Effect" and enlighten us mere mortals who suffer from this unique brand of football-induced temporal distortion. In doing so, you will unlock the key to everlasting joy or everlasting despair—depending on the final score.

In the meantime, lets find solace in the fact that we are all in this time warp together. United by our shared impatience, we shall endure, hoping that time decides to resume its normal pace once the final whistle blows.

Stay strong, for time may be frozen, but our spirits remain unwavering.

UTFT.
Thanks, mate. It's been a puzzler. You've set many minds at rest
 

Referee: Stuart Attwell. Assistants: Constantine Hatzidakis, James Mainwaring. Fourth official: James Bell. VAR: Michael Oliver. Assistant VAR: Mark Scholes.

Attwell has refereed us once this season when we lost 2-0 away to West Ham in January, with both teams picking up one yellow card.

He's refereed 28 games in all competitions this season, issuing three red cards and an average of just over 3 yellow cards a game.
 
Not sure leaks of Dyche getting the axe is ideal preparation for a must win game. He might play Maupay and Keane to spite us. Oh and Holgate
 

Anyone else think we should wear our pink kit for this match. Our best performances have come in it and psychologically it could give us an edge to play better. We have been so bad in the blue this season at home
