...imagine what's it's like for us who live in the city after last night!!

I haven't ventured over the threshold.

Have not turned on the radio or watched any sports news on TV.

And that was only the quarter final.

Imagine the lead up to their blasted semi.

I mean, just when you thought the adsolute worst could happen to us this season was going to happen in a seventy two hour span starting next Wednesday, these buggers pop back out of their box and threaten to prolong the agony into mid May.

Partner went to the Palace game. We tossed a coin to decide who should go to Soton. I lost & am in U Bullens.

At best, a morgue type atmosphere. Lack of effort and / or baffling substitution, an eruption of anger which will shake whichever directors are foolish enough to attend.

Whatever the result it'll be a phenomenal performance.

Finding it hard to be enthusiastic, the life has been drained out if me over the past 2 days

*sigh*

15-0 Everton.

Niasse and kone to get 7 each and robles to replicate Maradona and glide past everyone to make it 15

Enthusiasm, yaaay

Decent preview that @Groucho

What ever happened to the rifle green kit? Pretty sure we're unbeaten in it but we haven't worn it for aaaaaaages.

 

[Abertonian]

sneak a 1-0 to lift the gloom a little.

Clev and Jags out. McCarthy suspended. Lukaku didn't train, Barkley, Baines and Lennon to be assessed.

A must-watch at Goodison Park for Hodgson

Everton v Southampton is one clash Roy Hodgson should make sure he sees this weekend. Because this, and Everton’s match at Leicester next month, are the biggest tests that John Stones will face between now and the European Championships. If the defender has not yet learned when to sally elegantly forth with the ball and when to hoof it away, then Shane Long (and then Jamie Vardy) is sure to expose him. Indeed, with the Goodison Park faithless poised to vent their anger at Roberto Martínez, it will be interesting to see whether Ronald Koeman thinks Everton are vulnerable enough to justify redeployment the ultra-attacking four-forward lineup that overwhelmed Newcastle last week. PD

• Everton interested in signing Manchester United’s Carrick
• Southampton would not stand in Koeman’s way, says chairman

Everton to win 1-0, Kone with the goal

 

[Thomasc]

Robles, Coleman, Stones, Mori, Oviedo, Besic, Barry, Mirallas, Deulofueu, Osman, Kone.

subs: Howard, Galloway, Peinaar, Gibson?, Niasse, AN other...AN other.
