Match Thread Everton v Notts Forest. Sun Dec 29th. 3pm

[GoldenToffee]

Possibly the lowest standards have ever been when fans no longer expect to win at home against a team that, until two years ago, was in the Championship for over 20 years.

Everybody associated with the club that's had something to do with this, outside of the new owners, ought to be thoroughly ashamed of themselves.

Thankfully the two worst offenders are dead/gone.

For all the glory the Forest defence are getting, they’ve kept 7 clean sheets, the same as us. Add a striker who can bang in the goals, you get top half.

I reckon a 1-0 win for us today with Broja to get off the mark at Goodison.

Despite Forrest’s great start to the season and the teams they’ve beat, this has a feeling of a must win for us personally. January is still full of tricky fixtures and although we’ve had 3 decent draws on the spin, we need to start picking up some wins from somewhere.

 

[TyphooToffee]

Top 8-9 for me, although still an incredible season. At some point that absolute cart horse Chris Wood has to stop scoring goals. He's been useless for years yet is somehow enjoying the best period of his career out of nowhere.

Oh dear, you've done it now.

Forest will find out today exactly how good they are: they'll be beaten by a team that will finish bottom 6/7.

Feels like a big day today. Hopefully we are happy come 5pm.

Had to miss the Chelsea match due to illness but will be in the Upper Bullens today. Its strange I am not looking forward to any matches, probably Dyche has worn me down due to his defensive play. Just want this season over with, hopefully in a safe league position and start again fresh next season...New ground, New owners, New manager, New players. I just want to see the younger generation of supporters see some success at the club like I did in the 80's...WE CAN ONLY WISH !!!

Give these a little wake up call blues.

2-1 to the Toffees

COYB!

UTFT!

 

[The Penalty Box Dancer]

Play like we did against Chelsea and we beat them. Surprisingly, we look good when we have the ball but we have to do more with it and for longer periods of the match.

 

[roy vernon]

This game looks so nailed on to be a 0:0 or a 1: 0 for either side. It'll probably end up being a 3:3 thriller

 

[blue to the bone]

Win this and it should give us a nice cushion to the bottom 3.
But I'm leaning towards another draw.

 

[anton66]

We need a win from somewhere. Wolves have just shown how to climb out of the bottom 3 quickly with a couple of wins. West Ham have now created a big gap between them and us. It’s ok drawing matches but it doesn’t move you out of danger zone.

Fully expecting a 3-0 today, Broja hitting the net, Harrison and Gana also registering.

Any updates on Ndiaye?
