Ye it was masterful display of tactics against City. we weren't lucky at all, not in the slightest. If we played that game the same again... we would pick up a point again... honestly! come on, there's no fact involved at all. Anyone watching knew we were riding our luck the whole match.

London Blue Posted September 17, 2017 Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 Mrs birthday weekend, out for dinner last night so been given the afternoon to myself as a reward, not been called into work (yet), about to go out for brunch, watch the GP. Then I'm watching the game, looking for a vastly improved performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubecula Posted September 17, 2017 Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 Since I started thinking about bad results in the past, I feel a lot more relaxed about playing against Utd this afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that what's going on at Everton is in any way comparable to a funeral, it's just some people love a bit of doom and gloom; glass is always half empty.

Maybe it's me?) markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palfy Posted September 29, 2017 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 I know Wotton drove through it quite a lot going from Gloucester to Stroud, Forrest Green are the most environmental friendly club in the league's as well as the worst by position.
