Default Derby Day

Amazing! Everton will enter the derby ahead of Liverpool by 1pt.

I know Moyes has good reasons for bringing Rooney along slowly, but for a match like this, you need to have your best 11 on the field to have a chance.

And to me, that means starting Campbell and Rooney up top, with Radzinski available to sub in should the Toffees fall behind.

Default Derby Day

I don't think Rooney will start. All part of Moyes's "protection plan". Kev and Radz will know that if they aren't on top of their game they will be pulled off though, perhaps as early as half time.

Our defense will be a little suspect without 3 of our regular starters - Yobo, Rhino and Hibbert.

Sadly I will be somewhere above Greenland at the time of the game, flying back for Xmas and New Year. My parents don't have Sky so I'm unlikely to see any of the game at all. Damn.

Won't be on the net much either. Hope you all have a top Xmas and hopefully we'll have plenty more points on the board to sing about.

Boy it’s pretty quiet around here. I thought you guys would be all rev’d up with lots of cheery banter about the “Match” I guess nobody cares.

Never mind, let’s hope that it’s a good clean and fair game with the result going to the better team of the day…..

Nah, we’ll MARMALIZE yis….!!!

Brave words. I want to see chunks taken out of a few Liverpool players if we start losing control of the match. At least that way they'll be disadvantaged going into next week and lose so Everton can go a lofty seven points clear after the D-day victory.

It "sounded" like chunks were being taken on both sides. Perhaps the two teams should have taken a big chunk out of Graham Poll and then we could have had a real old fashioned derby.
Good luck you (But no too much) for the rest of the season.

I wanted marmlade...!!!

The return leg at Goodison is just a bit away in February, plenty enough time to keep tabs...once liverpool fall past 8th I think pride is something they will barely have left by the time we take make that final blow to ruin their season.

LOL
Gawd, don't even joke..!!!
I said at the begining of the season here that I would like to see Everton up in the top 10 and a lot of blues poo pooed me saying it's too early for that!

Now you're all wondering how long the gooners will stay on top of you

So what do you really think now.
Top 5
top 10

I'd like to see you guys up higher than 10. It's really inhumane kicking you when you're really down.

Top 8 is my bet, pushing for UEFA, there's no way we could survive CL qualifying games and the league with as small a squad as we have...Let Ipswich be a lesson...

Smart thinking...The team can really build after good run at UAFA.
With money as tight as it is all through the leagues are the blues still going ahead with the Kings Dock project? I haven't heard anything for a while.

on the website they interviewed Bill Kenrwright, eh, the chairman, and he said things are still on target for us to move into Kings Docks.
