That ex-player thing is gonna bite us on the arse isn't it?

Everton's defence is too good have Oba sorted. Should have gone for Viduka, and hoped Lovenkrands could find some flick ons.

Butt or Raylor I reckon, probably Raylor.

Smith coming on soon.

Raylor has cramp :S

What other options are there? Smith? Geremi? We're doomed!

RB

Not really, read back to earlier pages, I thought he was a shit signing and nothing has made me change my mind. A waste of £4m. Fans against players from the start. Not a good thing.

I haven't. Sorry for having an opinion on a player. I was referring to BigTRon. Not you.

Sorry but at 26 you should have enough experience and down right sense to know, don't dive in 2 footed on a player. Apparently that's not what Nolan intended to do.

Sounds like people have been waiting for the first slip up to have a go tbh.

Nolan has just issued an apology.

Nolan has just apologised to Anichebe.

In the end, he's on a 4 and a half year deal. Time will tell.

Raylor has been my pick of the half tbh.

Shame, he'd been doing well until that moment. Am dissapointed with him, but I think he'll be the first to apologise later.

We are definitely better than we were during Hughton's last stint...

Definitely must keep Raylor at right wing.

His usual good game after a rest. He'll go to pot eventually.

This is good. Threat of Raylor will make defences less comfortable as they become less willing to risk a free kick which gives others more time on the ball.

They'll get 10 mins at the end. Plus 10 mins added time at this rate.

Sky showing even less respect for the referees by publically microanalysing time added on.

But only for two hours...

You may have all ignored my positive reflections of the team in the pre-match thread, but perhaps I can grab your attention with one more positive thought: ALAN SMITH IS NOT STARTING he's on the bench but HE'S NOT STARTING David Moyes might not get the chance to see that he's shit.
