adrian lord Posted 27 December, 2013 Share Posted 27 December, 2013 Just maybe we can inflict a second defeat in a row at Goodison Park and really derail their season while getting us right back on track. I bloody hope so. We need to bridge the gap to Spurs and Utd, not fall back towards Stoke.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatlesaint Posted 27 December, 2013 Share Posted 27 December, 2013 Was that really 30 years ago that little runt Heath scored that goal ? Bloody hell, I need to move on, I've been haunted by that all this time......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doggface Posted 27 December, 2013 Share Posted 27 December, 2013 Well Artur Boruc is in today's training gallery running with the team and he is wearing gloves. Chances are he is taking some shots on so could be very close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 27 December, 2013 Share Posted 27 December, 2013 It was horrible, just horrible. Bloody Adrian bloody Heath - nothing hurts more than a goal like that. Apparently not. I'd have thought 30 years of trauma was more appropriate to an average rape, not losing a cup semi final. Why do people hate Heath so much too? According to his wiki, he is neither from nor has every played for Pompey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eelpie Posted 27 December, 2013 Share Posted 27 December, 2013 Our team is still way off full strength. We know the stand-ins can play together as we saw against Cardiff.....However, it is still a fragile set-up. IMO, it will all be down to confidence on the day. I predict a win, a draw, or a defeat for us. You forgot match abandoned because of weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for not making it clear in order to avoid confusion :-/ I'm being facetious but I don't really get why losing a semi final to a team who've never particularly been our rivals is so bad. We must have beaten Everton about 10 times since then. If none of those wins avenged our defeat in '84 I doubt a win on Sunday will either.

Glasgow_Saint Posted 27 December, 2013 Share Posted 27 December, 2013 Despite Gazzas improved performance vs Cardiff id still pick KD if he's fit.

Georgie Posted 27 December, 2013 Share Posted 27 December, 2013 I don't expect Boruc to be back until West Brom game on 11th January, with Davis playing in the FA Cup game. Although I hope Davis is picked ahead of Gazzaniga for Everton and Chelsea. Despite the clean sheet yesterday Cardiff didn't really offer much of a threat, Everton will.

austsaint Posted 27 December, 2013 Share Posted 27 December, 2013 Tough game; I keep thinking of the Man City game with a weakened side though when we conceded early and it looked like being a blow out. I know it won't happen but I'd consider playing Lovren in Morgan's role alongside Davis and Cork and leave Yoshida at CB. JWP just does not look a 90 minute player in an intense game and even his set piece and dead ball delivery has not been great lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egg Posted 28 December, 2013 Share Posted 28 December, 2013 I'm not at all sure that Lovren didn't play as a DM on occasions at Lyon but then again they sometimes have strange ideas concerning their players' capacities. He did and is decent there. If we're down to the bones I'd expect to see him feature in a holding midfield role this season at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We must have beaten Everton about 10 times since then. If none of those wins avenged our defeat in '84 I doubt a win on Sunday will either. Unless we have beaten them in the semi final of the FA cup in the last minutes then it has not been avenged. Back in 84 the cup really did mean something (still does to some). Saints had played away in every round with trips to Blackburn on a Friday, shef weds on a Sunday plus that lot down the road and notts forest. It seemed at the time as if we were destined to win the bloody thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffo Posted 28 December, 2013 Share Posted 28 December, 2013 Funny that. Although Everton fans have just as much of a chip on their shoulder as Liverpool fans. They have an awful home support with no real standing area like we have with the Northam or even the Itchen North, and their away support tends to be sat down in the majority.
