Everton Thread - 2021/22

This is the man who had his daughters toy pony as a lucky mascot and put David James up front......

People mock him for the Calamity thing, but it worked, as we won a penalty.

If it wasn’t for Blobby FowlUp making a fucking mess of the spot-kick we would have been playing in Europe the next season

Whilst i have no ill feeling towards everton, my enemies enemy is my friend and all that, plus in the 80s i always wanted them to win the league when we were never going to do so and to stop rags/dippers winning it .. i also have always thought they need to be relegated at some point after cheating relegation when hans segers took the bung in that last game of the season.
Everton 2-0 down but won 3-2 after segers let a few through his legs

Yeah but Everton weren't involved in the fixing so it's hard to make the case they deserved to be relegated because of it even if they did unwittingly benefit from it.

Yeah i get that totally. And i dont mean they cheated relegation. But they still shouldve gone down

i've always assumed he did that deliberately. wasn't it for 100 prem league goals as well? no way was stuart pearce going to just be given that, not how stuart did things, so he skied it. could be completely wrong of course, but like to think that's what happened

No because he played in what is now the championship in 93/94 so a few of his goals came in that season. He also said he was retireing so i doubt he missed on purpose

aye, someone rightly pointed out it would've been 100 career goals. knew it was 100 something, just got it wrong with the premier league goals bit

I dont disagree. Just feel they dodged it a bit

He retired after playing for City in the second tier in 2001-02; eight years after that.
