scouse Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 EVERTON have come out with a strong defence of Ireland full back Seamus Coleman after the Donegal player was subjected to anti-Irish abuse online by a small section of the club's support. http://www.herald.ie/sport/target-of-hate-3300714.html Anyone at the match hear this? suprised at this given Everton strong tradition with both Irish players and Irish fans.

Lowensda Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 I read about it, thought it was stupid and disgusting. Didn't think our fans were like that personally, thought they had a bit more taste than that. Don't like to be associated with bellends like that, Coleman was stupid with 'that' challenge, but i've seen every single one of our current crop make a stinker, Coleman making one doesn't warrant that level of abuse.

Romey 1878 Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Not really sure why his nationality would even be brought into it. He didn't fuck up because he's Irish, he fucked up because he had a brainfart. Lowensda and pete0 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avinalaff Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Where are the remarks? Coleman is well liked amongst supporters, and most understand he is stil learning and will make the odd mistake, so I find it surprising.

Toffee_in_LA Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 That kind of language directed at someone is unacceptable. It's easy to find a scapegoat but in the grand scheme of things, the play of the entire team was a let down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mogsy Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 Whilst the references to his nationality are uncalled for, a couple of them, ie the tweet about Tony Hibbert doing a better job are perfectly acceptable, no difference from us on this site saying gibbo does a better job than Neville etc. People are entitled to their opinions about how they feel a player is playing. Just not need for crass remarks about nationality, or wishing they were dead, that is uncalled for pete0, Sibdane, Romey 1878 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 can't be doing with such insults associated with nationality etc. Thick yes - there is no doubt in my mind he ain't the sharpest tool in the box, it's a close call between him and Agbonlahor as to who has the face which says "I've got no idea what day it is". In fact either of them could stand in for Bill Murrays character in a remake of Caddyshack. I think he's missed out on a lot of fundamental youth development to become a top defender - pity really as he has tremendous athletic attributes.

Dalziel Kane Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 They're not all Everton supporters Got to love that "HA HA HA Coleman is the durtiest pikey gypo I have ever seen. 'Dis is my dawg'" Could someone please translate what the fuck that even meant ? Ok, Coleman may come in for a bit of berating, but bringing his country of origin into it, was really all rather unneccesary. I don't think it's any real Irish distaste, just a number of Idiots having a say. If Coleman was Welsh, or Canadian or from Guatemala, something invariably may have been mentioned. Plenty load of sorry assed people on those social network things with room temperature IQ's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcopaulo Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 means he's not very clean..that's what durtiest means...and gypo and pikey mean the same as far as i know...the last bit i have no idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowensda Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Looking more promising as a RB. Still got a lot to learn but didn't get into football till late, so as a late bloomer it's expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 I had my doubts about him (as a winger and full back) but in the last few games he has proved me wrong and he has impressed me. Like Ten says, there are still plenty of areas to work on but he does have a future at the club if he can keep that form up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitey Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Seamus is my favourite player. It's a bit of a fairy tale story for me. I hope he becomes world class, he is learning every year and improving all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 I wasn't aware that Coleman required surgery to remove an infected blister before his first game with us. Seems a kid with potential though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearso Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Seen a few mentions of late development, when did he start playing? I love him personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 He was a Gaelic Footballer up until 2006? If he's 24 now, he started football (as we know it) when he was 17/18? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoward18 Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 He's at worst a rotation option long-term. I like Pienaar but having Coleman on the overlaps has been crucial. He just needs to tighten up defensively. Twenty four is still pretty young for a defender so he still has a good 2-3 years to improve. Look how much Baines has blown up in the last few years.

Whitey Posted December 23, 2012 Report Share Posted December 23, 2012 I think we missed him verse West Ham. Jags can't cross at all and Heit shouldn't be near the team at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncanmckenzieismagic Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 I think we missed him verse West Ham. Jags can't cross at all and Heit shouldn't be near the team at the moment. I would go along with that, Jags isnt a RB and Johnny just looks like he is going through the motions until the January transfer window Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoward18 Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Yeah I think Coleman's value to this team is becoming more and more apparent. I love Jags but he's pretty helpless with the ball at his feet in the offensive half of the field and he doesn't have great wheels. He certainly belongs in the center. Coleman's far from Philipp Lahm but he's a perfectly competent EPL fullback. I don't think we can justify taking him out even when Hibbo is healthy, no?

He's development has been phenomenal this season. I can see him being one of the better right backs in the league in the next few years.
