Match Thread Everton v Manchester City, Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[The Trinity.]

No luck . No goals. No points. We are now in trouble.
Awful refereeing decision at the end. And VAR is a complete waste of space. We are going to have to win matches by scoring a few goals. Can't expect , and we won't get help from the useless referees that are now ruining football. We are just not getting any breaks.
Anyhow.......play like today , only take out chances , and we could be ok.
I say could be ok. Because as we all know.........what Everton will turn up .

Unlucky today. But being unlucky won't keep us up. We need points. We need goals. We need clean sheets. And we need that wee bit of luck....And we need all that now. Now. Not April. Now....

Anyhow.......onwards we go. Spurs next. Can't get to bothered about the Boreham Wood match. It's now all about getting points. Play similar to today. And we could get something.
Two last points. Benetiz should have been booted out after the collapse at home to Watford. Maybe have given a new manager a chance to then pick up a few more points. The powers that be at Everton have a lot to answer for this terrible season. A lot to answer for.
Our players have been mainly useless this season. But if they can play like they did today. Only score a few goals. Then we will be ok.

Last point........I guess that's match of the day getting a miss again tonight. Don't tune in when Everton are beat. Haven't tuned in much this season tbh. Is Linekar still presenting.
Up The Toffees. Our hopefully staying up unlucky wee Toffees......

lol, not clear enough evidence to conclusively show it handball is reason given lol

VAR Chris Cavanagh. What?

The only possible reason I could think for Kavanagh not giving it is that they didn't have a head on and he thought the angle made it difficult to know if it hit his arm or not.

I'm raging. I just can't get past this. Absolutely scandalous decision

 

[heatmeiser]

Not enough evidence to give a penalty?

What does he want? A signed confession? Utter joke

At one point the ball literally hits the inside of his elbow FFS. Clear as facking day.

Not enough evidence ? There's about a hundred cameras over the stadium for a start .

Not having seen all the views on Sky now. Poor indeed

Not enough evidence mate, VAR needs some satellite images obviously

Positives from this though is that we would have drawn with the best team in the league had we not been cheated out of a penno
