Everton vs Roma - Saturday 10th Aug - 5pm KO

[YoboCopter]

Hey all.

I've been planning to travel from Wales to bring my 10yr old daughter to her first match.

Shes been super excited ever since we got the tickets.

However with all the riots going on up and down the country, I dont think I'm in the wrong for being a bit apprehensive about taking the trip.

Just wondered what the thoughts are of anybody that may be in the same sort of situation.

Be fine mate
Dont let a few fools change your plans

I cant promise you everything will be ok, just know that lots of people take kids to these games.

Have you seen those nature programs in which a predator attempts to attack an animals offspring?

It never ends well for them.

My Grandson will float all the way, hes been excited for this game ever since I got him a ticket.

I despise preseason games and im still trying to get my Wife to go instead of me.

That’s your answer then, let the wife go but you drive and drop them off by the ground….

Edit, only just seen the post saying similar…..

Decisions decisions.

Wife is not happy about us going, perhaps understandably so. Keeps pointing out news articles about planned disruption to EFL games this weekend.

Urgh, I really don't know

It will be fine. Whilst inherently really stupid the far right aren’t that thick that they think going near 20,000 left leaning football fans is a good idea. It would be like the time Oswald Mosley went to Bootle.

Not sure where you’re getting your figures from but that’s a gross overestimate of the political persuasions of Evertons match-going demographic

You’ll be absolutely fine.

There will be zero trouble at the game.

It’s a straw poll from drinking in pubs before the game and the basic political make up of the city as a whole.

Pickford

Young
Keane
Tarkowski
Myko

Garner
Gana

McNeill
Doucoure
Harrison

DCL

D wighting is on the wall, thrown to the ground roughly a DCL pen for 1-0.

O'BRIAN on as substitute scores to make it three in three for his good self 2-0.

Prediction:
Everton 2 Roma 0

NSNO

Why do we keep starting Keane?

Is Sean stupid?

 

[dutchblue54]

Pickford

Coleman
Tarky
O'Brien
Myko

Gana
Iroegbunam / Doucs

Lindstrom / Harrison
N Diaye
McNeill

DCL

The team to start against Roma and Brighton.
So 2 decisions to make in my view: knowing Dyche it will be Doucs and Harrison lol

 

[IrishBlue2022]

Just put Keane and O'Brien upfront.

Is Sean stupid?

Apparently MK has a slight injury so won't be risked, JarredB doubtful too.

No point risking an injury to Holgate if he is to be loaned at this stage of the window.

Hopefully Welch or Onyango grasp the opportunity and we give Tarky and JakeOB
a half each.

Do we?
I mean he played in 9 out of 38 prem games last season and only started in 4 of them.

I meant this pre season...if he starts tomorrow that means he probably starts against Brighton...no?

He will only play against Brighton if he's covering for injury.

Over the season it's a squad game.
It's where he is in the pecking order,
if two are injury doubts, others must be ready to step in.
