… before that RTB fella posts his little thing. For some reason Everton always seems to act up when they come to the SOL so it’ll be interesting to see how many show up and how they behave. There always seems to be aggravating Scousers around the coaches and away entrance. This is an awkward trip so I’m not even sure they’ll sell out. Their form actually stinks in my opinion although they seem to be escaping criticism because of how poorly the three bottom teams and Fulham have been. Since they lost to Leeds in mid-August, which was totally deserved, they’ve won one game. They only scored twice in October one of which was a penalty. Without Pickford, who’ll get a good reception, they’d be really struggling imo. They look like they’ve gone stale to me and won’t be relishing a trip to Sunderland. Their supporters seem to see us as beneath them and won’t be excited to make the trip. Moyes to me, seems as fixated as any manager, with his style of football which seems the same as the last time they came. It’ll be interesting to see what RLB does. Despite calls for Alderete, Reinildo, Ballard and Mukiele I think he’ll keep faith with Hume who played a lot of football in the Chelsea half. Hume hasn’t merited being replaced so I think Alderete will have to accept a place on the bench. It’s becoming a fight for the shirt if you lose your place. Despite their contributions at Chelsea none of Geertruida, Traore, Rigg, Brobbey, Talbi, etc can expect starts … … Moyes won’t have a clue how we’ll set up and neither will we All mad stuff these days, it’s ’turn up and see what Reggie did this time’.
