Relegation 2022/23

[matty1878]

We have players who score. Gray, Doucoure, McNeill, Iwobi and the CBs all know how to get the ball over the line.

I can see us needing a draw in any case. I refuse to believe the other two have a win in them.

you no nothing dave ever

I've read this thread for some time, probably not the wisest idea, but I have at no point thought we are definitely down because there were always going to be really poor teams getting really poor results along with us.

Am I nervous? Yeah course, but some of the fatalistic stuff in here for months has been worrying. Genuinely being this negative all the time must be damaging some people's mental health and I say that as someone worrying about Internet strangers and not a dig at anyone. Quite frankly this version of Everton FC, isn't worth your sanity.

We're 2 points clear, we may have already done enough. Would have been nice if Newcastle had won tonight but its in Everton's hands come Sunday.

It might be worth some of you staying out of this thread and try and distract yourselves for the next 6 days as it’s going to play havoc with your heads.

We like to refer to each other as an internet family thank you very much

We’ve served up rubbish from the moment the season started I don’t see Sunday as any different

To escape relegation on say 34 points is a testament to everyone else’s failings as that’s a ludicrously low number

Just this weekend alone we’ve seen 1 side miss chances, play poorly for large periods but still show the testicular fortitude to get a last second equaliser, one side go in front but then decide to leave their balls in the changies at half time and the other leave theirs on the team bus for 88 minutes

More stats @matty1878

i hate the stats guys

I won't go into details but between close family and close friends of more than 35 years, this week we are much more concerned about the reality of loved ones with some serious illnesses and, sadly this evening, a passing of a lad in his 60s.

Tbh the thought of EFC surviving and us having to look at those clowns in the PL for another season just leaves me cold.

Worried about a pitch invasion?? If I were there and we survived I would turn around and head out of the ground ASAP.



I really don't care about those players or that Management....nor, I know, do they give a damn about you or me.

54 years supporting this Club, and always will be a Blue in the Tradition of Dean, Lawton, Mercer, Farrell, Eglinton, Young, the Trinity, therep stalwart hearts of the tough 70s and early 80s, the Kendall team, the Joe Royle Dogs of War.

I have just no interest or passion for these absolute disgraces to the Jersey on and off the field.

Get out of this Club and stop tearing true supporters' hearts apart with your mercenary attitude.

I repeat....on and off the field.

There is a number of whom I can count on the fingers of one hand that have behaved with the pride and passion that behoves being privileged to be actually paid to represent Everton.

Most of us know well who they are.

The rest.....just go!

Bless you mate.
I hope that your family issues can be as pleasant as possible , in the circumstances.
I may be a bit younger , but I also miss the true blue past.
My mind goes back to big Mick / Mike Lyons , and where has that Everton player / psyche gone ?

All Everton have to do is beat 15th place at home, chill out

Yes. It's a tough ask with our injuries, but let's have a bit of perspective: B'mouth will start as slight favourites but we'll get our chances.

I'd rather be facing them than Harry Kane, Son and Richarlison or Bowen, Benrahma and Antonio.

It’s almost like those sides are also bad isn’t it Kev.

 

[Joey66]

I just hope their players do stay fully committed and not just stroll about as to not get injured and miss the final.

​

And of the squad will be playing for a place in that final.....

[davek]

If they don’t win we don’t even need to draw.

I think draws are all that's available in all three matches - at best.

That suits us.

 

[Nightman]

Indeed...if you play for a draw you end up beaten

Yep. Hence Moyes' terrible away record against the top 6. Or top 4 as it was back in the day with us.

 

[Cels]

Did they do that on Sunday against Leeds?

We're not talking about Sunday though mate. We're talking about their last league game of the season. There is also the other side of the coin, their players will put in a top performance to ensure they get/keep their place for the final... it's almost like we'll have to just wait and see

 

[PhilRegan]

Bournemouth have slapped us around for a while now it's more of a mentality thing for us

 

[edge]

7 wins in 37 mate.
Battered by this team twice already this season.

If we were playing City, you'd be thinking differently. Many of us aren't taking B'muff for granted.

Your missing one important thing in those defeats ,
The lampard factor.
The other two teams are as bad as us as well.

 

[Cels]

And of the squad will be playing for a place in that final.....

Yep, just put that mate
