Not being totally humiliated is almost a win. Will never get the game changing decisions at the pit so just have to accept it.

Thought Branthwaite was superb yet again. He's learning a lot with every game, long may it continue.

Both him and Tarkowski were magnificent. I came out of the shed and met my uncle (long-time RS ticket holder), with my first question being: Konate?

He said it's a yellow and a sending off all day. The Keane one he said you can see it both ways, which I think is a fair, objective view to be honest.

I thought overall we played really well in terms of nullifying them and defensively being strong. If it weren't for the pen, I was confident of a draw.

Think that was me. I also said hopefully we dont see him again after today (as its obvious he will be a disaster).

Repeating the mistakes of the past signing someone who was almost universally despised by Toffees.

 

[GoodisonRoadSupperBarWool]

the so called self proclaimed best team in Europe against the worst Everton team in years and it took a sending off and pen to beat us at a ground we never get anything from.

Onwards and upwards.

PS someone sort them bizzies out at the pit they get more angry the more the years go on.

Thought our lads worked their backsides off , shame but this lot are gonna get every decision it's the law of the premier league..

Dyche again slow to react to Youngs early booking,should have been withdrawn then,from my vantage point,the Greek fella for them got away with a similar one to the first yellow for Young,I am sure Pawson had someone in his ear for the sending off as he definately hesitated just giving the free kick initially,how Kounate remained on the pitch is totally inexplicable other than the fact Pawson was toeing the party line after “Spursgate”,haven’t seen the pen yet on tv footage,but it was quite obvious to every Evertonian present today the cryarses would get one,however that said thought we were very poor in possession today against a very “off it”RS side,couldnt question the commitment particularly when down to ten but the lack of quality was alarming.

it was only young that his selection was wrong

Yes Matty, that's why we played over half the game with 10 menl. If I can see that Young is hopelessly out of his depth in this league at his age, why can't Dyche? He has a propensity to play favourites , Young, Keane etc. and just continues to do it until the pressure from the fans becomes so great he will drop them, but, he will always be looking for an opportunity to put them back in. It's a pity it wasn't a straight red,at least he wouldn't be able to select him for 3 games then.

Twenty-eight players have been sent off in Merseyside derby history – 9 red cards issued to Liverpool and 19 to Everton.

Really??? Admittedly we have been 2nd best for most of the last 50 years but from 1892 to 1970 we were easily the more popular and successful club in the city.

A bit before my time, all my life all I`ve seen is them collect trophy after trophy and grow the club to this juggernaut that we can never match ever again.

Unless we get loads of Middle East money, which we aren`t... We are going to be stuck with a group that will have the club paying for them buying us like the Glazers and "living within it`s means" i.e. we aren`t putting a single penny in.

Just never going to be on top, certainly never going to match their honours. Liverpool v Everton isn`t a derby anymore, they`ve been in a different league for decades....

 

[Sharpies volley]

Akanji sent off for city for 2 identical fouls that their player should have been given a 2nd yellow for. Unbelievable.

Two liabilities on the pitch and they both delivered without the corrupt PL officials who are destroying the game.
