Salford v Everton - Saturday 27th July 2024 - 3pm

Yes I remember that well
I also remember we had a very good side then....

You mean you don't think the title is ours again next season?

Chelsea currently getting beat 4-1 by Celtic @kiss the crest

What was the reaction to that result, was it acceptable to just brush it off as pre-season training or did people think Everton should have played better ?

I don't know,I was only fourI'd imagine shock as unlike today we had our full first team including the holy trinity on the pitch!!

 

[Street end man]

Mad people who worry about the score of friendlys

When it's against a Real Madrid X1 i'd agree. This was Salford though.

 

[Sharpattack]

I really am dreading this season

 

[Nymzee]

So, were we crap?

How we played that is - don’t care about scorelines.

It's equally funny as it is pathetic how wound up some fans get about pre season results on social media. When have results ever really mattered? Chelsea have just been smashed by Celtic ffs..

I think Celtic and Salford are not on the same comparison level

The only thing in common was we both didn't have our strongest teams out

Moving the goal posts yeah, nice.

The Football Echo just gave a report on the game
But Twitter went into meltdown. Instagram imploded. And Tinder and Grinder went crazy

 

[GoldenToffee]

Can't really read anything into the result as we only had about three regular starters.

Obviously it's worrying if Calvin can't slot any goals in pre-season esp when there is a contract dispute going on.

We have nobody that anybody in the world would feel confident of scoring 10 goals this season and that's an incredible concern.

 

[cronullasharks]

Nothing to worry about obviously as we have swept aside pretty much every team in the last few years and have a superb squad.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

I'm just disappointed I don't really use my member benefit to watch the scintillating football, now we are free from any pressure and can cut loose.

Ropey official stream. Not my end of the Internet. As it comes free so to speak it's ok, would not be happy coughing up £8.99!

Remember we only need to finish 17th so no need to panic yet.

Maupay was still utter garbage so it's good to know that no miracles have happened while he was away.......
Other than that its almost pointless discussing the game as its just a fitness drill with no tactics being used at this stage of pre-season. Just minutes on the grass!
