    Fuck me Pete you need to have a day off, we haven’t conceded a goal at Goodison since February and only City have more clean sheets in 2019 and you’re clinging to the fact we had teething problems with set pieces in his first couple of months 😂😂😂

    duncanmckenzieismagic reacted to pete0 in At Petes request, a poll.   
    I'm asking to name another team that do it. If it's tactics surely you can find one team that does it. 
    Walsh was a stats idiot, he wanted Gana over Kante and just got lucky at Leicester that Villa bought him (note: Gana played a massive part in them going down and are the only team that come close to clear chances through the middle like we had with Gana). Alladyce inherited a team with very little energy and did look to replace him. Silva didn't want him, and was happy for him to go, pending a replacement.

    It was my youngest daughters first game as a season ticket holder on Saturday and when we took our seats we found that the club had left a goodie bag that included a personalised certificate ,welcome letter, match program and other memorabilia . Made an already very excited 7 year olds day. Thought it was a really nice touch by the club

    I haven’t watched MOTD yet but the incident happened right in front of me and I was certain it was not a penalty when I watched it in real time

    I thought the game completely passed him by to be honest, Watford totally bossed the midfield and dominated us for large periods of the game, especially in the second half 
    Not having a pop at the lad he has only been here 2 minutes and hasn’t had a preseason so it’s hardly surprising he is not up to speed

    It probably is a generation thing, I did elude to that in my initial post
    Some younger fans from the Premier League era consider success to be finishing in the top 6, some of them don’t want Europa League either so it’s top four or bust
    For me success in football terms means having a trophy to show for it. Maybe it’s because the younger fans have never actually experienced a successful Everton side that they feel this way , who knows , I just don’t get it
    For some of them, the most ‘successful’ Everton   side they’ve seen was 2004 when we finished 4th but to me that is not success because we still won fuck all and therefore have no trophy to show for it. Take a look at the clubs honours list and you will not find any mention of that season
    Success to me is winning trophies, and success breads more success 
    I want us to win every game we play so the apathy by some to the chances of winning a domestic trophy is not something I will ever be able to get my head around
    These shouts of it being an unwanted distraction are bollocks, a distraction to what??
    We haven’t  as a club take this competition seriously since the 80’s and we’ve still not got a pot to piss in from any of the other competitions

    As always you’ve missed the point. 
    Back then we had a young up and coming side and the mere fact they got to Wembley and more than matched The Shite over the two games, we would have won it if the ref had not ignored Hansen's hand ball,  instilled a lot of belief in them. It made them realise they could compete with the best
    So much so that we went on to have a strong finish in the league that season and were back at Wembley a few months later to lift the FA Cup and the most successful ever Everton side was born
    Most say the real turning point for that side was even earlier , that it was a late equaliser by Adrian Heath against Oxford in the quarter final of a cup competition, guess which one?
    Either way if Kendall had your attitude to winning trophies back then he may have rested players against Oxford and lost that game , lost his job and the great  side of the 80’s may never have come to fruition 
    By the way it was the FA Cup final where Watford played their second keeper, so should we not try and win that either?

    Spot on, it was the same for us and we didn’t even win it 
    Just go and read Graeme Sharps autobiography. He says that the moment that the greatest side in Everton’s history began to really believe in themselves was when they went toe to toe with The Shite at Wembley in the League Cup final. That was the springboard to all their success , but what does he know Pete says it’s meaningless so we might as well go another 26 years without a trophy

    Scraps on the table my arse, that’s like a homeless bloke who is suffering from malnutrition because he hasn’t eaten for months turning down a steak because it was bought from Aldi 
    We have done a fantastic job of not getting distracted by the League Cup but it’s not helped us win a fucking thing in 26 years, I think maybe we need a new plan
