Match Thread Everton v Crystal Palace - Preview, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Charles Hawtrey]

They sure seem happy and they already been together for 5 years so hopefully their happiness continues for a very long time. After all, age is just a number.

I too knew I would be out of town this weekend (Daughter's b-day in Knoxville TN). So I was trying to figure out how to watch and not risk the ire of the family. thankfully the pressure is off in every sense.
BTW I cannot decide who was MotM... Iwobi did everything asked and more in 2 positions, Dele came on and changed the game, Doucoure had a great 2nd half, Keane sparked the comeback with a moment of class, Richy tireless, DCL there when we needed him, Myko ran his lungs out all game, Pickford's unreal save at 1-2, it is too much!

Happy birthday to your daughter, have a great time in Knoxville now that a weight has been lifted. Same with me, I have yet to vote for the same reason. Yesterday’s performance was a team effort!

Can't get over the 2-0 down to 3-2 up thing happening again.

Palace's second goal was just like Wimbledon's, too. The utter heartbreak of a chaotic, bundled finish.

Mad how things like this echo down the generations.

Let's hope we see echos of more positive moments in the coming seasons.

I was thinking that last night, it was uncannily as calamitous as the Wimbledon 2nd

@GrandOldTeam We need a HD picture of the final goal with the team celebrating and the sunset in the back. Beautiful stuff.

This?

Would be great but would have to be really HD which I don't have.

Just having a pint with a City fan as barman. He was delighted we did it and says all the United fans he knows want City to stop the rs.

He confirms my belief that everyone else hates rs and he is a lad in his early 20s, so he doesn't remember Heysel

I know it was said earlier, but here is that little vid, Very magnanimous of him to say it which probably wont please Leeds fans, or his players who were not overall happy with last nights results if you watched is P/C lol

Great to see the players who didn’t play be so passionate there, shows they are true blues. Hope Deli starts next game and kicks on next season because he could be back to his best with the positivity in our camp atm.

Love seeing Frank celebrating like that, this is what we’ve needed for so long. I’ve never bought into the foreign managers being better than our own, I’m really pleased we’ve given a young English manager a chance, and I really like Frank as a person, he’s one of the lads and all the idiots saying he’s from London or he’s a Tory can do one. Frank needs to prove himself and Everton need to get back to the top, it’s a great combination.
We haven’t had a scare like this for some time and it’s actually what the club needed. We are stronger for this experience and I honestly think we’ll be in the top places next season… we could even do a Leicester! COYB!!!

When you say your having a pint Br, do you mean about 10?? After last night I think I could sit in a quiet corner of a pub for a month and just be left alone ?

That's perfect. Thank you for doing that!

No worries mate, I've spent ages looking for 4K broadcast/high res pic but had no joy so can't print it. Nevermind.

That's very sound from him

I feel completely spent, just got nothing left in the tank today. Was up until 3am, slept on the couch until about 6, an hour in bed then the kids up for school.

Couldn't get a word out for a couple of hours, just sat there crying and couldn't stop. All the months of stress just rushing out.

I pretend I'm not arsed, I say this is it and I don't care anymore but the reality is I love Everton so much that it hurts to see us in the state we are in.

I don't think my emotions will balance themselves out for a couple of days either, the sheer relief is just too overwhelming to just settle down as if nothing ever happened.

I love Everton.

Enjoy it. It's been an awful season, but the way Everton won it in the end, I don't think anyone could ask for more. What an unbelievable and important win!

I just rewatched the game and got emotional multiple times.

I will continue when I get home mate.

I slept like a baby last night. Tension gone.
