We’ve not won away for 16 years.

Nothing on earth is quite like the bigg market at about 3am on a Sunday morning. I always half expected to spot David Attenborough with a camera man giving a running commentary of the absolute apes on the loose. It’s a place that evolution ignores

I'm going to have to give this a go now aren't I.. ya bastids!

You`re being unkind to apes there.

Think this will be a struggle but it's one we can win because they're so awful. Expecting another performance from us with the emphasis on defence, we do the basics right surely we can nick at least one down the other end.

Would definitely give Lookman a run out against these.

 

[SteRobbo84]

Lennon in for Davies I reckon.

...Perez is a goal threat and I don’t mean at his own end.

 

[Eggs]

Can't wait to do some scouting on the players who will want to leave after another low-table finish.

..they were comfortably above us a few weeks ago.

I'm not sure the club have ever gone a full 12 month period without one in the league.

I remember us going from mid September 1970 when we won 2-0 at Blackpool until early April 1972 when we beat Southampton at the Dell 1-0 with a goal from the late Micky Buckley. Unbelievable considering the players we had then.

Wednesday I expect Lennon on the right, Schneiderlin for Davies, Rooney back in the middle.

If we lost it would be so very Everton.

...it’ll be the end of the bounce.

The table in all seriousness at this stage isn't too indicative of teams' performances. I am confident we'll school these clowns tomorrow.

6 pts from next 2 and we're flying

Man can dream

 

[toffee-L]

Think we may see Rooney rested here. We should have enough to beat them but you don't go on a winless run away from home like the one we're on now unless you have something fundamentally wrong with your approach/attitude in away games. Big Sam has to overcome that and quickly.

Staggering statistic but 100% true.
