Justice is done - to a point. Doesnt help us losing 3 points to the shyte though Atkinson should apologise to Jack for being such a retard

Haha No the word butch conjures up images of big fat lezzers

Its bloody shameful and those who partook need to be punished. I have mellowed my stance a little since Saturday and I think a bit of sense should prevail over the punishment dependent upon age, if it was kids they need to know its unacceptable and not the behaviour of a true fan, a season ban maybe. If grown men then chuck the book at them, they should show a little more restraint and think about the repercussions for the club

50k is possible for us and I agree with Romey, depends on what the new ground might be like. I think it may struggle to create the atmosphere we get in Goodison, there just arent many grounds left like ours. On another note though I do think football attendances will continue to decline, ticket prices keep going up (mostly to pay players wages) and what value are you getting particularly given the farce of Saturday (sorry dont want to start a tangent), you can pretty much find any game you might want to see streamed on the interwebthingy - it isnt the same as actually attending but its better than nowt.

It was in the currant as well. £1million a year for Barkley. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3851254/Ross-Barkley-in-line-for-new-Everton-deal.html

There is a small jolt there. When Rodwells knee makes contact with Suarez foot it causes the leg (of Suarez) to straighten. I dont think it bends as such he just straightens his leg, presumably to put in an excellent dive lol

Avinalaff is David Moyes

I agree to a point but to intorduce barkley when we are playing with 10 in the derby match, big ask for a young lad.

There needs to be some punishment introduced for play acting. In the Sin Bin in football thread a good point was made, something along the lines of both players should be sin binned (in saturdays case Rodwell and Suarez) whilst it is sorted, it might prevent some of the play acting if they knew they would be punished too. I dunno if it would work but diving is a blight on the game. In todays game how many times would Maradona have thrown himself to the ground? That goal would never have been scored. He wasnt the same player at Italia 90 as he had learnt to dive and didnt stay on his feet anymore

What happened to the sorts of Derbies I remember as a kid? Good light hearted banter and nothing more. I dont think its rose tinted specs, it just was a much better atmosphere without this underlying current of anger and animosity

Exactly. The behaviour we saw on Saturday is fundamentally what is wrong with society. There is always an excuse for doing something, being wronged somehow makes it acceptable to lash out and use violence.

Absolutely stupid. I hope your cousin is better soon

He has done his job quietly and efficiently so far. very under rated for us. As is Osman, it all went to pot when ozzie went off and Neville came on Saturday

If it hurt as much as he made out then he has a remarkable capacity for recovery. He was back on his feet before Rodders even got to the tunnel

Hibbos cross for Velios against Wigan was excellent. I think his distribution is much better than Nevilles and offers us a little more going forward. He has been one of the players I couldnt really criticise thus far this season

From the article Neither did so deliberately and will have watched the replays to see if they can improve positioning or judgement to prevent repetition of such errors. Could Atkinson have improved his positioning? He was stood right ferking there

Im sorry, when you see it from the other angle Neville is nowhere near. I clear Hibbo of any blame

I disagree to a point, eventually Neville gets his ass in gear and comes to close down but hibbo has lost his man and the cross gets put in

I agree. I thought he does try and get at defenders. Maybe Saturday he was more concerned with trying to keep possession

Hibbo is left isolated but he doesnt make a decision on what he is going to do and ends up doing nothing. Neville obviously doesnt help out when he should have done, his legs were fresh and he should have closed one of them down. Baines gets blatantly checked by Caroll which creates the space for the shot although I guess he does have time to regain his position. WTF Jags is upto I dont know

Give him a bit of time mate. He has hardly had a good crack at it yet and was not match fit when he first arrived

I can see your thinking on it but no. I just feel he will be wasted there. Give a few games to Drenthe and see how their partnership shapes up down the left, I reckon they could be awesome together

Carroll does check Baines before the goal which creates the yard of space for him

Andy Gray is ok but repeats himself a lot Lee Dixon is a pretty good pundit, he articulates himself well and is fairly knowledgeable. Mark Lawrenson is ok, Hansen is shit. Souness is gash and is running out of jobs in football now surely - Manager ultimate fail, Pundit ultimate fail. Maybe the shyte should give him a hot dog costume and let him work the pie van

Good point, trolls are like pigeons and shouldn't be fed
