I want them to stay up, I know loads moan about their fans being deluded, but I dunno, it'd be crap if they went down and someone like Stoke stayed up.


Why? They don't exactly play sincilating football but neither do most of the teams in this division. Stoke City have more than earned their place in next season's Premier League. If Newcastle do get relegated, they'll deserve everything they get and more. Just as if they stay up, they will have earned it. It's a hoary old cliche but after 38 games, everyone gets what's coming to them.

It's going to be bedlam on here if Everton win a trophy this season and Liverpool don't.

It was a penalty yesterday, of course it was, but these things do of course happen. I'm not naive enough to think that, because Berbatov doesn't run around like a maniac, he isn't trying, but I thought his penalty was rubbish. Of course they're all rubbish if they don't go in but still, he could have made a better effort with his ability.

One thing I was impressed by yesterday was how much it meant to Everton. (I appreciate this may sound patronising so I apologise in advance). They really wanted to win it and it was great to see these days when most teams don't really be that bothered. As noted above, if they do win it, no one can say they've done it the easy way.

They've forced countless managers out and that lack of stability has contributed.


To be honest, if you are refering to Allardyce, he has to be one of the most clueless and inept managers that we have had in charge, so i dont think he was forced out so to speak. Keegan left because he didn't get what he was promised and wasn't going to be a puppet for the board, which Kinnear is.

Maybe, but I'd wager that if Allardyce was still in charge, you wouldn't be 19th.

Would you be playing good football ? No. Might Steven Taylor be upfront ? Yes.

Well done to Everton, Utd were the better side even with the players we had out and should have had a penalty however fair play to Everton, I hope they can go on and win it.

I have to ask though why Tevez and Wellbeck did not take pens? Once again Wellbeck looks okay in build up play but useless in front of goal, Anderson and Gibson played wel in the centre of midfield and the two central defenders were superb.

I very much doubt it. Hardly a new thing though is it? Fergie and Wenger are terrible losers. It's part of the reason why they win so much.

Fergie's talking about Arsenal and Wenger now.
