Match Day Thread Everton v Southampton 01/03/21 8PM Sky Sports

Welcome to the super optimistic magical magic thread, featuring Saints' trip to Everton.

As has been well documented we are **** and are on a run of 100 games without a win. Luckily nobody is fit again and Romeu has done his ligaments playing on that tip of a pitch on Tuesday so he is out as well.

The team will be made up of the biggest bunch of invertebrates ever seen, they will play well for 30 mins in the first half and trick everyone into thinking that they are a half decent. Everton will have their first attack, they will score in some unlucky way and that will be that. We will then go on to concede a few more as the players give up and blame it on "low confidence".

Match officials: Some inept group of ****ers Tom will spend the whole thread defending

Magic Prediction: Everton 3 Saints 0

 

Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin and midfielder Allan should be fit to face Southampton on Monday night.

Just fantastic.

 

Var and **** refs 4 saints 0.

Monday night on Sky. I don’t have Sky and I won’t get home from work until it’s nearly finished anyway. With any luck, I’ll forget there’s a game on at all.

Will check in on this thread on Tuesday morning to evaluate the level of misery and despair. Or, possibly, not.

 

It's just great to have some certainty, that's a relief we were due a break after all!!!
Nothing like surprising a team as we possibly will on Monday, the odds being racked up now against our success must be attractive for those so inclined. Just realised, got a lot on Monday night, phew!

 

Going to hand wash the dishes the night before.

 

With DCL back presumably that means Richarlison up against Bednarek.

Can only see that going well.

 

Lawro predictably forecasts Everton to win 2 - 0.

 

I actually think he’s being kind there(it will probably be more).

 

Got a funny feeling we'll win this one. We're in wretched form + wretched form at Goodison = Saints win. It's just the way football goes.

 

I have watched Everton quite a lot lately and got to know them well.

3-0 Everton

Dixie Dean 2 and Kevin Sheedy

 

I fancy Duncan Ferguson to get one.

 

Or Adrian grassy area 1 - 0 1984....

 

DO NOT MENTION THAT NAME!

 

I'll take losing this one as long as someone gets his studs into John Bailey's grolies.

 

Comfortable 3-1 loss.

 

Our season is going down hill faster than Tiger Woods, so a point here would be a massive confidence boost.

We may need some of that luck that has deserted us, just hope it's not another thrashing.

let's put fncking February behind us and have a marvellous March.

We March on
