Everton have sold their ful allocation so should be a good sight in the South Stand, full seats. Well over 40,000 sold so I expect at least 45,000 and maybe a sell out, will be good to see and hear a full SoL today.
I have always found Everton fans to be good, and far more humble than their neighbours (bit like us and Newcastle eh!)...
MON- this is a great result for the club, the fans made the difference today Moyes- I wish i had taken the sunderland job when that wigan lad offered it to me
I fancy it to come up Syd mate, we know the Toon are in a rut, but this is an IDEAL game, Ba vs a shocking defence, they will score a couple, i don´t see Bolton doing likewise! Boro are flying, Hull are decent, but home advantage will swing that. MON factor, I just have a feeling we will turn up big time, massive crowd, and a bit of a feel good factor after a bit of a barren time. You can thank me later (or not...)
Well, we havn't lost a game all season and have, to be frank, an awesome record with both Cabaye and Tiote on the pitch and it looks like the first time in what feels like a lifetime we will have a half decent centre back partner for Coloccini (and some well needed height to deal with set pieces), in Mike Williamson. Ben Arfa is looking more and more like himself again with every minute he plays (hoping for a start today - we may now have the defensive assurances we need to include him in the team) and Demba Ba speaks for himself really. A goal every 90.8 minutes this season in the league, second best narrowly to RVP's 90.06. I've included Sunderland in an 8 team betfair accumulator which includes Newcastle and put Larsson in my fantasy team for an injured Lennon, so it's probably one of a few times this season I'll be hoping for a result for the rivals. Everton won't be easy though and to be honest I think a draw might just be on the cards today.
A draw wouldn´t surprise me mate, I just fancy the lads might be pumped for this one, so i´m sticking with 2-1.
3-1 - either score or odds-on! Let the good times roll....beat the Evertoon (sic). Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to be, A Sunderland fan today!!!!
I reckon 1-0 or 1-1 myself. I would stick money on under 3.5 goals if the odds were better (3/10). Will you be backing a horse in the King George?
I´m torn on it mate. Think between Kauto and Long Run is tight as ****, can´t see anything else breaking through, so seems like there´s not much money in it to back one of those 2. Might have a cheeky 20 on Kauto for old times sake, that horse owes me nowt, it´s won me fortunes over time!
Bastard beat me a few weeks ago I had £40 on Long Run, Kauto won it easily. Having said that he's made me well more than that the couple of times I have backed him
Aye that´s the thing, we´ve all had a few quid out of Kauto, so it´s almost as if backing a loser wouldn´t seem like a loss, you´d have to go crackers to be down on it. One of my favourite horses ever.
You can lead a horse to water,....(etc), Or You can lead a whore to culture, but ye canna make her sing. Lost me coat !
I'm not letting the bookies get their hands on my hard-earned money...However, if I was a betting man I would go for a double of both Sunderland and bolton to win 2-1.
i know this isnt a transfer thread but its about a boxing day game... Zamora and A.johnston are not included in the fulham squad today against chelsea dispite both being healthy....
Kauto star is older than me BB. Nowt on Morley Street or Dessie either although he has been a good un mind. Remember Floyd?
