Party time might be over in North London soon, for whichever mystery club and player this might be.

31 year old player ? Trossard he has guilty eyes !

@tbc pretty much named who it is alleged to be in ^^ that comment.

West Ham kept that under wraps, no?

David Gold's lips don't lie.

Ah I get it...ta

So Bergvall should have seen red for the foul of Tsmimikas, but isn't. Then when Tsmimikas is off the pitch for treatment following that foul, Spurs attack down Liverpool's left side and Bergvall scores.

No wonder Slot is seething.

Liverpool cracking up.

the new manager bounce is fading
slot out

Agreed

he should be seething that konate was so easily bullied by solanke and noone picked up bergvall.

bergvall lucky not to get a second yellow for sure. lots of football in between

Heehee

Dyche gone. Mixed feelings. With the hand he was dealt he did incredibly well. Uninspiring footy but we’re quite an uninspiring team atm.

He's clearly not been inspiring but I think it could be a decision they'll regret. Thought they would have stuck with him until the end of the season.

On Dyche, I saw this yesterday as a reminder that football isn't always shit

The problem they had as team was scoring goals. Apparently of the players with not touches in the opposition box, not one was an Everton player.

They had grit, they could defend, but they just can't put the ball in the net, which is kind of fundamental.

Moyes favourite. LOL.

Will probably do a decent job tbf.

Blimey, just looked in to Blades / Cardiff on the tele ….. no atmosphere , no fans … looks just like a cold Thursday night , winters ,training game ……
Too cold for BBC or Soul Crew … or just shit scheduling ! ?

Not a list that would fill me with excitement

7 o'clock on a Thursday night with a 4 hour drive, no public transport and two teams that played each other a couple of weeks ago.

Exactly - really hate the fact that some games are just being side lined …. It’s the F.A. Cup … surely a cup game for these two would generate more interest / fan excitement on a cup weekend , Saturday three o’clock … ?
…. now off to go outside and shake my fist at the sky …

Big harsh to fire Dyche a couple of hours before the game. At least let him do the team talk then fire him.

Am a fan of Peterboro being sponsored by the local skip hire firm - proper old school.

Yep, it's totally shit.

The Ipswich game is £10 for adults and £5 for kids, and home tickets have been really hard to come by this season (season tickets sold out before we got promoted, other ticket sales are by ballot to members who went to games last year) so the FA Cup will be a great chance for people to take kids for their first game or for people who are late coming back after the wilderness years.

7pm on a Thursday robs the clubs of that income, but also robs people of those sorts of opportunities.

Bramall Lane is a great ground when it's buzzing as well.

The official club statement is odd. Not a word of thank for your efforts etc.

Everton Football Club can confirm that Sean Dyche has been relieved of his duties as Senior Men’s First Team Manager with immediate effect.

Ian Woan, Steve Stone, Mark Howard and Billy Mercer have also left the Club.

The process to appoint a new manager is under way and an update will be provided in due course.

Under-18s Head Coach Leighton Baines and Club Captain Seamus Coleman will take charge of first-team affairs on an interim basis.

Ian Woan

What a blast from the SWOS past!

Bramall Lane is a great ground

Crikey! I've only been to Brammel Lane once in the Portsmouth premier league glory days, I've always had it pegged as the worst ground I've ever been to.
