I hope like me you too are very happy to get that monkey off of our back in the shape of the Everton hoodoo. It had been on there far too long, had resulted in far too many crazy results and, up until we scored in the second half, was really starting to feel like [...]
Happy match day Gooners, hope we're all holding up well? It's the return to an unhappy hunting ground in recent years, as we take on Sean Dyche's Everton and for a team who hasn't exactly been one of the leading lights in the Premier League for many years, they have a surprisingly (and annoyingly) good [...]
I suspect this might be a short one today, as all is quiet and the calm before the content storm pre Everton starts to envelope us from tomorrow with Mikel's press conference probably happen at some stage then. But as we hurtle towards the weekend, thoughts turn to the away day trip to Everton for [...]
Howdy peeps, hope we're all feeling good on this Premier League weekend? The big matches don't happen until tomorrow with Man City going to Everton to pick up what will inevitably be three points as Everton lie down and have their chins tickled by a Man City side who will feel pretty confident that they [...]
After 30 minutes of the game yesterday I glanced over to the touchline. Sean Dyche was there in his technical box, stood still, arms folded, looking on. I couldn't see his face from where I sit, but I could make a pretty educated guess as to what the expression was: pleased. He'd sent his charges [...]
Happy match day folks. A midweek match day in the premier League. And what an opportunity we have that sits before us. An opportunity to go five points clear at the top. An opportunity for revenge against a side that beat us just a few short weeks ago. An opportunity for us to start saying [...]
Morning folks, how we all doing? Looking forward to tomorrow night's slugfest against Everton? Because let's face it, it will be a slugfest. It will be a gruelling, grinding, low-blocking, frustration of an evening as Everton try to double up on our wide forwards, they camp on the edge of their own box with bodies, [...]
Ahh man am I tired. I know it's 'first world problems' n all that, but sometimes in the middle of a working week you just want to go home and vegetate on the sofa, not entertain clients. So apologies if today's blog seems a little more incoherent than usual. My head is pounding and my [...]
What is it about Goodison Park, eh? What is it about Everton? What is it about playing them when they are in their worst run of form and then somehow contriving to lose to a team that we should be able to swat to one side? I don't have the answers I'm afraid, but yesterday's [...]
I am a lot more nervous about this game than I thought I would be, you know. I thought that this Everton team have looked ragged all season, they have disgruntled fans turning on the club and its ownership, there was talk about protests going on during the game, plus more. Before the Premier League [...]
