Everton (H) - Sat 10th Feb, 12:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

It would be great if the fans turn up.

 

[BrianW]

Fucking ffp gone mad, no more free toffees?!

I remember the famous chant, circa 1967:

'You can stick your fucking toffees up your arse.'

Probably why they stopped.

Same chant at the quarter final in 81!

 

[The Colonel]

A few evertonians at work wanting us to win Saturday. Quite funny.

Same. “Don‘t worry about us. We‘ll quite happily roll over”.

No repeat of last season please.

 

[richards30]

a chance to go top for at least a few hours and put pressure on the dippers with Vinny coming to town. Full strength please Pep!

I meant, not seen her throw sweets in ages. I have sometimes seen girls dressed as the Toffee lady. I get in the ground just before kick off now so maybe I miss it all.

I remember in the sixties when she walked round Maine Road (whwn we played Everton) throwing toffees into the crowd, and the City fans chanted "PROS -TI-TUTE", "PROS-TI-TUITE" at her.
Poor girl must have been mortified.

It’s 10 degrees, no rain. T shirt and shorts

Do we have a Geordie lurker?

 

[Travellingman]

Just asked me mate who goes in the ground early with his lads. Toffee Lady duties are now performed by a young girl, chosen random from season ticket holders. She will, along with mascots, greet the team as they take to the pitch. Not sure if she still gives out toffees anymore though? Never seen any walk around the pitch like they used to do. I knew I had seen young girls dressed as the Toffee Lady.

So, Finally, I can say .. Yep, she is still there.

It’s 2024. The toffee lady will have a cock

 

[mancboy]

You can buy them in the shop still. Just cannot throw them at Kopites anymore.

so we cant throw toffees anymore? how about grenades is that okay?

 

[mancboy]

Do we have a Geordie lurker?

nah a geordie wouldnt be in a t-shirt

If they did not want a toffee they did not have to have one.

throwing toffees into the crowd would mean claims for injury now, and probably banned by health and safety anyway

Everton are without a win in their last 6 league games whereas we've won our last 9 in all competitions and Pep has a phenomenal record against Dyche so I'm pretty confident we'll get the win.

However, thier league position is a bit misleading as without the points deduction they'd be 12th. Also, only 3 teams have conceded less goals than them so this will likely be a slog. An early goal would make a big difference.

Heh, would be a great story, shame Kompany has no team capable to make it a reality

 

[alexmcity]

It's unlikely to be a slog IF we play well. We scored 3 goals at their ground and had 9 shot on target. And we were without Kevin and Erling...If we play close to our best, we are likely to score 3 goals again (or more).

lol fucking no, can’t understand a word the cunts say (and personally I’ll be wearing big coat and scarf tomorrow)

Waiting for **** stones to ask a cunting question (Slimon not John I mean Eccles!)

I'd like an early first goal so i'm not chewing my hands off a goal down as has been the norm of late.
