He did it got blocked early doors. Fwiw it was probly going in as well.

He did but it would've taken something catastrophic for an Everton defender not to look competent tonight. Aye we didn't put him under much pressure at all. Exactly the sort of player we should have targeted with some pressing. Oh well logical tactics and Pardew dont to together

Sadly Wullie that's what we've become. I think the lack of resistance is a prime example why we've become small time. Ashley has won the war without a shot being fired back

then what the f*** are you in it for? Will Cthulu break through a rift in spacetime if you stop paying attention? Family history, local pride, obligation, habit, loyalty, all sorts of things. Most football fans have quite a s*** time don't they? I thought this was a fairly innocuous and obvious point. if you get zero enjoyment out of it, then you are a mug. If it's the sense of community, well this community has become about as apathetic as I've ever seen. And honestly, loyalty? You're an even bigger mug when you consider these overpaid tits. And I'm about as big of an idiot as it gets for picking this club to support, not having any real connection to it. Just f***ing misguided loyalty. I get some enjoyment, when we play well or win or score a goal. Or when I get to go to the match, all the normal stuff. I just mean the lot of a football fan includes a hell of a lot of depressing s***. I can agree with that. However, these vampires have slowly sucked the enjoyment I get out of any victory. There's no fist pumping for me anymore. It's just a flatline of disinterest, but sustained by unconscious, mechanical habit...or the faint hope that the passion will return. Yup that's exactly how I feel.

This. Been saying he's a striker for ages nothing to suggest he can play wide in a 442, 433 maybe 442 no chance

Fair point, I don't really disagree with that. But then again, after last season a lot of people were expecting a lot worse than 8th or 9th. I agree the manner of the 8th is not good, and the cups were obviously awful. That has no place in any argument, tbh. Last season was utterly disgusting and anything less than a significant improvement would have been a disgrace. Well OK, but even if I accept that - if you do deliver a significant improvement then it's not a disgrace. Which we have. No we massively under achieved last season thanks to Pardew so considering we are now par for the course after a bad season isn't anything to get worked up about. not to mention the pathetic cup exits and humpings to the mackems and being slaughtered at home every now and again. That's cool, nobody's getting worked up. I am with disgust. Humped at home to Everton ffs.

Only thing Pardew deserves is my foot up his useless ass. The man is a fucking fraud but keep the faith and all that.

We'll never see the end of Pardew whilst clowns like Ando back him to be honest. The man is always blaming the players and never has a word of criticism for anyone else.

Yup. Good to see someone post up accurate ratings. Everytime we lose people start throwing zeros around really makes me chuckle.

Created a tap in which Anita missed. Ando is a clueless prick who can fuck off.

They didn't even have to get out of second gear. The chasm between us and them is absolutely huge right now. More down to the manager and the difference in attitude imo. We will be stagnant until Pardew fucks off only 5 years to wait lads

Couldn't even put evertons youth team centre half under any pressure

We have no pace or strength in attack or defence that's fucking remarkable

No idea how they counter us so easily considering we have zero impetus going forward

What a difference it is having Ben Arfa and Marveaux on the pitch, two players who can actually receive the ball and play it with some composure

in times of old, Mascherano Tevez No one bats an eyelid though. The apathy is off the scale

Every time I see Hatem I wonder how the fuck is he sitting on our bench. Damming indictment of our management imo

I wonder what our shot % inside the box is this season. One of the lowest in the league I'd guess

Pardew is spinless that's why we are in this predicament we should be taking the game to them playing all out attack, Everton haven't won away this year ffs but they come here and we just roll over

Target man played without wingers rarely do

So our narrow 442 isn't working lol

Dummett covering far too much there Everton pissing on us again Ffs

Playing a striker on the wing tends not to work. We tried it not so long ago and it didn't play out very well

He won't stay too long so enjoy it whilst it last
