Ask them again next week, or have a look at the match thread.

For you average Liverpool fan over here I'd say the United game is bigger. Obviously locals will see it differently.

I'm an average Liverpool fan who now lives in Ireland.

True that. I often wonder what it must like to be average, but have never managed to fall to blaa levels. :pac:

You're looking upwards rather than downwards at it since you moved to Limerick I'm afraid.;)

Cannot say that I am not trying hard to experience all things average, what with my move here, and talking to you on here on a regular basis.

I wonder how Arteta moved without a medical?

Or was there a super 1 hour medical done in Goodison yesterday?

I knew it ! :P

You thought the FA was bad

eh i dunno

This thread goes seriously quiet at times. What we expecting today lads? 6 games undefeated against Chelsea. Would take a draw :pac:

bennyc

Any streams for the game ?

eh i dunno

Long season ahead lads. Did anyone notice Fellaini turn his back rather than jump with Terry for the second goal? Sell him quick and try get the 15m back for him which wont be easy

Team looks stale at present. Dark days

Stale because they know the squad is so light its unlikely any of them will get dropped. Fulham A Chelsea H and Man U H means we could go another 3 games without winning :mad:

eh i dunno

A new low :mad:

Looks like a mate of mine in an Everton jersey

I think I just got a little bit sick in my mouth

Never rated him when he was there before and still dont.

He is a Scottish McGeady or should I say he is an older McGeady since he McGeady is Scottish?

Lumbo

He's only training at Finch Farm, nothing confirmed yet (fingers crossed). Hopefully he goes to Celtic. They think he's Pele up there after the goal he scored against France.

Still though, his goal against Charlton for us is one of my favorite Everton goals ever.

Edit: It's been confirmed on the main site.

eh i dunno

What next lads? Davie Weir? Kevin Kilbane? This is a new low and were in a scrap to stay up in my opinon. 14/1 to go down. That will fall after we lose our next 2

eh i dunno

Better news than Jimmy Mac returning...future manager???

eh i dunno

1 up at half time. Badly need a win here. Great goal by Royston:D

eh i dunno

3-1 win...great win. Zamora's miss was unreal tho at 1-1

Laois_Man

Really needed that win today.

Really pissed off with Fellaini. He's not interested in Everton anymore. He's waiting for his move.

I'm a bit nervous about the next league game after Man Utd's hammering. We could really get a backlash from that. And the fact that Johnny Evans won't play is a blow to us too!

First tho, another game against Chelsea. They got a bit of a false scoreline against us last week so we owe them one. It'll be tougher than the FA Cup last season, but we can do it! I reckon Chelsea will put out a very strong team!

eh i dunno

http://www.chelseafc.com/matchreport/20110921/chelsea-fulham-_2249014_61070

That was Chelseas team in the last round so i expect similar and Cole is suspended.

Never rated Fellaini and just hope we get 15m in jan for him. Lazy and a liability. One dragback against Bellamy made some everton fans think he was a legend. He's not and has he ever broke into a sweat on the pitch?

eh i dunno

Roystons goal
http://www.attackingsoccer.com/2011/10/drenthe-goal-v-fulham/

eh i dunno

Confirmed Everton XI v Chelsea: Mucha; Neville Heitinga Distin Baines; Bilyaletdinov Fellaini Rodwell Drenthe; Cahill; Saha #EFC

Confirmed Chelsea XI v Everton: Turnbull; Ivanovic Alex Luiz Bertrand; McEachran Romeu Malouda; Anelka Lukaku Kalou

I fancy us to win

Lumbo

Why bother? :mad:

BTW Drenthe was a ****ing clown getting sent off like he did.

Really pissed off after that. No shame losing to Chelsea but that feels like a kick in the teeth after we'd put them under so much pressure.

The Volt

Not overly upset with that as I thought we were the better team. We actually played football for the first time this season and were unlucky not to get the goal with Baines's free kick. Just did not have enough quality to break them down

eh i dunno

Finally???

The Volt

Watch this space as BK would say.

It's hard to be optimistic about anything at the moment but hopefully this has legs.

eh i dunno

The nightmare season continues :mad:

I'm not an Everton fan but would like to ask an Everton supporter's opinion on something. A friend of mine is a fan and for Christmas I was going to purchase a DVD season review for him. I had planned to get the 2004-2005 one because I believe it was Everton's most successful Premier League season.

My question is would you be insulted getting a season review from so long ago? You could look at it as if I'm saying the current team is awful. If you do think it a good and appropriate present do you know where I can pick it up new?

eh i dunno

Not a great present to be honest. I'd watch it if i got it but wouldnt be getting too excited about it. Go with this instead for a tenner

I'm starting to get my hopes up about all this takeover business. It doesn't seem to be going way which is promising.

The Volt

Apparently Keith Harris was on SSN and said that the club has been valued at 150m. This is ridiculous given we've been asset stripped and the amount of debt that exists. No one in their right mind would pay that.

the report put the figure in his mouth. he replied with your not far off the mark.

i think the figure must be closer to 100m...no way can it be 150-160

Should go away once the next Blue Union protest is over next saturday. Its the way Bill rolls :mad:

Marouane Fellaini signs a new deal as expected. Top player.

Was very pleased when I read that.

eh i dunno

Still dont really rate Fellaini but glad he signed if only to ensure we can get a decent fee for him. Strange that Bill managed to agree a deal 2 days before the next protest march.

Must win game on sat though and i expect us to do the business.

Lumbo

eh i dunno wrote: »

Really? I find that hard to understand. I would consider him the closest to world class that we have at the club. He's got a great engine, can compete with any other midfielder in the league and throws in the odd goal as well.

Baines has been our best player the last few seasons but Fellaini on top form is one of the best in the league.

Lumbo

No mention of Operation Goodison meltdown. Leaked email, Ian Ross suspended (according to NSNO) and a protest tomorrow. This stuff is better then Eastenders.

eh i dunno

Howard, Hibbert, Jagielka, Heitinga, Baines, Fellaini, Osman, Cahill, Drenthe, Coleman, Saha. Subs: Mucha, Bilyaletdinov, Vellios, Gueye, Barkley, Mustafi, Stracqualursi

No Rodwell, Distin or Neville. Need 3 points badly today

Tried to post that the other night. It's some finish. Hopefully he's given enough time to settle in and get experience before the fans start demanding he's getting in the first team (he's only about 15 years old). Apparently, Spurs were very pissed off that we beat them for his signature. He's very highly rated already.

EVERTON XI v Bolton: Howard, Hibbert, Baines, Jagielka, Heitinga, Bilyaletdinov, Osman, Fellaini, Coleman, Cahill, Saha

Thats one weak bench :eek:
