If Evertoning has thought us anything (and reading through this, it hasn’t) it’s that daring to express any whiff of positivity opens the door for the footballing gods to put us all back into our box of deep despair and on the verge of hopelessness before dragging us back in with an unexpected win and round and round we go
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks we will get demolished today...
 

As always, if anybody wishes to get themselves hooked up with IPTV for legal streaming of television (😇) hit me up.

It's on these channels today.

Semi-related. Has anyone else found BT not allowing IPTV. My app also doesn't seem to like VPNs so stuck with hotspotting from my phone.
 
I think a good idea would be to filter any positive comments on the run up to a game that we may think we have 3 points that are there for the taking. It works for the bad language and would help keep our expectations low and therefore keep the disappointment factor down when we do mess it up.
It’s a wonderful idea, we need to quell all positivity as a holding exercise until we find out which one of us ran over a gypsy cat
 
It will be tough but lash loads of crosses in and the game is there to be won.
2-0.
If the pionts hadn't been taken off us we would have the same pionts.

Poch has warned his players not too give away free kicks near the PA and corners to stop us crossing.

That can happen, but you can also buy services that build in workarounds so that your ISP can't block it. Or use a reliable VPN - I use one called Ivacy and it works great with the Fire Stick.
 

This is what I don't get. What's different about football now and when it was played on poor surfaces and with no substitutes and other less favourable conditions and nobody talked about having a days less or more between games.
I think players are probably fitter overall than they were in First Division days.

Think about the old Easter weekend fixtures when they played on Friday, Saturday and Monday. I know they all played on the same
days but even so.
Mate, I don't remember players in the 70s and 80s spending so much time injured. If they had broken bones, yes.

However, the amount of time spent actually playing compared with being unavailable through injury these days is frankly ridiculous and really annoying.

Being paid obscene amounts while contributing nothing on the pitch is what angers me about today's EPL.
 
If we put in a similar performance to Thursday then the result will take care of itself.

Looking forward to seeing Myko up against Sterling
