Relegation 23/24 Thread

[notrevE5]

lets look at it this way, at least they got that one bad performance out of their system, I mean it was bound to happen sooner or later

Gibbs-White will fancy his chance of a hat-trick next week.

Even if we scrape over the line this season, we’re just facing a fourth consecutive season of relegation fighting. Dyche has to be moved on in the summer.

Is good prople have confidence we can stay up, is what we need i am down after tonight but still ahead at this point. Is horrible but well onto sunday

Or something like a 6-0 hammering in your game in hand!?

Yes there you go. So now a 2-0 defeat at Luton and then a 3 goal defeat at Arsenal and Luton win another game and they catch up the GD just like that.

It is now far more likely than 24 hours ago to add to all the problems from tonight.

This night has given me that Newcastle feeling from last season.

The response was great after that...4 points from the next two and a 5-1 win. Badly need the same again but tbh I'd take three draws from the next three games.

Same as last season

It is still 35 points from 32 based on what's actually been produced on the pitch. Maybe the points tally wouldn't have been that high without the first points deduction and the defiance that followed but there were some really good performances between October-December.

My feeling was it wasn't going to last though and with no away wins since mid December reverted to type now on the road. Seems that 3-0 at Wolves killed all the positivity and it's been a very hard slog since with dire performances at Goodison.

Since the Wolves game it's 3 goals in eight away games and the Newcastle one could've easily ended scoreless but for the gift from Dummett.

Luton and Forest with 25 points and Forest with 26 points are suddenly Man City and Real Madrid who'll, of course, batter us in the game they play against us...all because we got beat by a team with 1 defeat in their last 12 games.

No, they aren’t Madrid or City, but I can see with my own eyes that they are more positive, more attacking and play much better football than Everton do.

We have nothing, zero. No passion, no goals in us, no pace, no energy, nothing. If you can’t see that then I don’t know what you are actually watching.

Edit: oh and the last 2 goals we have scored have been gifted to us by goalkeeper errors.

 

[Cork Evertonian]

No, I fancy reminding the faint hearted bottlers on here that we've been in way worse situations than this and still stayed up.

Off field though the financial situation has never been as dire as it is now.

 

[Bebeto]

Gibbs-White will fancy his chance of a hat-trick next week.

Only thing he would have to do is run straight at keane...frightening

We didn't just get beat, we got Castrated... You don't come bouncing back from that very quickly...

We didn't just get beat, we got Castrated... You don't come bouncing back from that very quickly...

As long as it’s not happening every week, I’d imagine it’s probably easier coming back from a big loss than a last minute goal or close game going against you.

Apart from Beto’s chance, there aren’t many things to mull over really. We’ll see how we play in the next few games though.

 

[Cels]

I'm still confident that we'll stay up.
