Matchday 34 - Everton v Nottingham Forest - „El Fiasco!“ - Sunday, 21st April KO 1:30pm

[Red Echo]

I wonder if part of the psychology of Everton playing increasingly poorly as the season goes on is the looming administration.

Players must talk about this stuff. If a lot of them know they'll have to find a new club/contract in the summer, they're not likely to give it all for the cause. Self-preservation 101.

Absolutely cannot give away sloppy free kicks or corners against this lot. They have some big buggers in their team and we all know we are weak as p*ss at defending them.

The mods won't like me saying this but I rely on a dodgy firestick to watch the games now as I live in Spain, usually it works a treat but last weekend it didn't work so well...it started buffering at the exact moment Wolves lined up to take the corner for their equaliser. A voice in my head was saying "I bet they bl*ody score here" lo and behold when the stream came back Wolves were celebrating. I missed how the ball ended up in the net but also knew it would be a clusterf uck of a goal. Forest didn't let me down of course. My point being you can almost guarantee we'll f uck up defending a set piece. So we have to score two or three.

Forest successfully defend a corner.
Fans go crazy.

This been has been known to happen from time to time.

Good news: We limited the opposition to a single corner in the last game.

Bad news: We are still shit at defending them.

True.

I think Bobby was referring to Spandau Ballet's (correct) assertion that Danilo is "Gold"

I was very excited just then for a split second.

Then the bad news knocked me duck off.

That was actually for the Wolves match just gone.

Ian Storey-Moore hat-trick?
Just hope Joe Baker doesn't get mortally injured.

This is pretty much the mood throughout the entire Everton forum. Very few see anything other than an Everton loss.

"I'd take a point all day, deep down I think we're getting bummed. Forest actually look a half decent team and we are just s#ite"

Are we playing for a trophy in the FFP Points Deduction derby ?

A five pound note will be presented to the winners at the end of the game.

 

[enlightened]

A draw. We will concede, I hope we score. It'll be a terrible game.

Aye... sounds about right.

I just hope they don't kick the shit out of us but that's likely to be in vain.
