Tbh I was thinking all the last 4 were must wins if we wanted CL qualification. Out of the question now I’m afraid. Must make sure we don’t miss out on the Europa League now.

Tbh I'd sooner miss out altogether than go in the Europa Conference.

Can't blame Moyes for that one BD.

Gave it a good go. Just not enough up front.

Some people will blame Moyes for everything mate. Me .? I blame those nasty anti West Ham conspirators at the F A. And Sky. If that game had been played yesterday when it was raining we’d have got at least a draw.

Oh I don’t know. Might give us a chance of our first trophy since the Inter Toto.

Hopefully get Declan back and see where we go in the next three games. Not making their keeper make a save in 90 mins is not a confidence booster.
David Moyes needs to get their mojo back. We don't want end of season malaise to smother the enthusiasm

The Inter Toto was a more important trophy.

Shame after the last game, but pretty piss poor all round to be fair.

We may have got a 0-0 with Declan and Oggie but that doesn't mask the lack of anything up front. Ancellotti sussed us out by crowding the midfield and defence nullifying our threat on the break. Oddly, you know who may have made a difference ?

Haller. Obviously if he was in the mood. It would have allowed us to mix it but hey. Moyes didn't want a replacement did he ?

A sigh of resignation from me but a better alternative to losing 1-0 at home with 4 games to go deep in the relegation mix.

It's progress.

But the conference thing will at least raise the club’s profile. And more winnable than the Europa League.

That said with our remaining games we ought to be able to guarantee at least 7th place which would ensure Europa league.

And if we don’t make it we’ll only have ourselves to blame. Although some will look to place the blame elsewhere. Won’t they Terry. ?

7th gets you the Conference. We need 5th or 6th.

Lads, lads, lads.
This was Everton not the blunts, they have a great away record. Their manager has won everything in the game. Did we think we could just turn up and turn them over.
They defended for their lives does that not tell you something?. We had two injuries which upset any rythm we may have got going.
They parked the bus, just as we have many many a time.
It was one of those games, we didn't get the rub.
Cheer up we are 5th, not 5th from bottom
