Relegation

[ChoccieStarfish]

There is so little energy or brains in the centre of midfield. You can lack one of those things and get away with it... But not both

 

[miami]

Does atwell know that contact is permitted in football? He blows for the slightest touch.

 

[efc.1878]

Burnley will have a field day against us with corners and set pieces.

Absolute state of our defence.

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

No we cant write it off need to fight for every point. I kno its frustrating but just have to get behind them again and again until the season is over

I'm sorry mate but you're living in a dream world if you think that this team is capable of getting anything away from home. They're a wretched gang of cowards that wilt away under the first sign of pressure. You must know that at this point. Obviously the manager will be telling the players that they need to fight for every single point away from home but in the real world everyone can see that those games are effectively all a write off.

Lack of depth is costing us weekly...
Mina and Allan in that team and we probably win this

Allan is similar most weeks to the two who have started. We're awful even with our best 11.

Wont argue about this set of players but i have to think we can get points away from home. We have a massive set of games coming up away from home and we need to win/ draw if we get beat be in massive trouble. Just have to be positive i kno feel let down by this team but we just have to push the team till the last game

Absolute bollocks that ! But they do wilt when it all seems to go against them I'll give you that.
Soton Away
Should have had Pen at 0-0
City Home
Penalty denied again
Newcastle Away
Two injuries changed game

Even Thursday the gods conspired against us but the fans (and players) saw us thru.
The effort has been there in this game especially early on. Its not lack off effort...its ability and luck!
Majority of them just aren't good enuf end off.

 

[TonyT65]

But I will add I totally agreed with you after last Sundays game v Wolves !!

The way I'm viewing it is that we have five cup finals at Goodison to play. I have more belief that we'd be able to get somthing from a home game against Chelsea then I am about anything away from home at this point.

Yes but we won’t win all the Goodison games, somewhere along the line we are going to have to get something away from home.

 

[jonnyboy316]

I guess this means our final fixture to be rearranged will now be done so for the semi final weekend rather than shoehorned in somewhere very inconvenient

ye mate

Lose in the quarter final of the cup and going down…doesn’t have the same ring to it.

Do kno what your saying but it is every game the away games we have just massive a good result for us takes us safe

I never claimed that they lacked effort. Just guts, pride and fight. They are one of the must gutless teams I've ever seen.
