I've sent Davey my cv in the hope of becoming the new 2nd keeper, apparently it's an easy job, you just have to stand between the posts and not move.

10 Mar 2013 11:53:21
I know the lads not up to it but surely you are not blaming him for yesterday

09 Mar 2013 22:19:09
Just want to say how disappointed I was with felli today, the bloke was not interested when we were losing and showed his lack if commitment to our special club, the moment when mirallas tried to gee him up spoke volumes for him as a player and a person, he didn't give two rubbishs that we were losing 3-0 and going out of the fa cup, sell him ASAP and revuild, ETID!

Lets get this straight today was a huge embarrassment for all us everton fans but we still higher in league and went further in cup than our multi million spending neighbours. So for final league games let's forget this and push on for a Europe place in the summer big changes but for now knuckle down and move on. Or maybe give up now choice is yours fellow blues?? Paul

We are higher, for how much longer though is anyones guess. We won't finish above them.

We went further than Liverpool, yippee, get ready for the bus parade lads. 'Further than Liverpool in the cup' trophy to be paraded at the end of the season. Can't wait for that.

Mike

Push on for Europe?

Have you been watching what we've been producing on the pitch lately? It's a good job we had a good start to the season and the points are in the bag because this is relegation form and relegation attitude from players and manager.

why is everyone going on about getting rid of Moyes, what is wrong with these people, if he went, who would we get, we would end up with someone we've never heard of who probably can't speak english

You're right, we won't be able to replace one of the most successful managers in the modern era. There is no one we can get that will come in and improve on the messiahs ridiculously good trophy haul and stupendously good brand of football. Every other manager should just give up as they don't come close to super Davie.

Mike

There are plenty of managers out there who can improve our team. And plenty since moyes took over our team. It's gone stale and needs refreshing

Ultimately I just can't see moyes delivering us silverware

I think super kev baines and distin are the the ones who give 100% today mirrallas needs to play behind the striker or as the striker and stop tracking back and save his energy got the attack

Like kone stayed on the halfway line all day and still look fresh and dangerous in the 90th minute

09 Mar 2013 21:26:07
Shocking today! I really thought we were going to wembley this season! A miracle is needed now if we're going to qualify for Europe (can't see it on today's showing) why was Gibson on the bench? Why did Neville start? Need to drop some players and start the younger hungrier lads! The really worrying thing about today was that apart from jags and Howard that was very close close to our best 11 and we were taught a lesson at home by Wigan! Not acceptable! If I was moyes I would make some changes!
Howard (when fit)
Coleman jags (fit) distin baines
Oviedo Fellani Gibson pienaar
Mirallas jelavic

We need someone up to with jelavic to help provide him with decent balls! Mirallas is quick and very skilful and can pick a good pass! If jelavic has him running around and playing him through he will score! At the moment high lofted balls for him to battle with centre halfs for is not working! Moyes has to let jelavic be selfish! Keep him on the half way line when defending corners don't make him run the channels keep him in and around the box a and let mirallas do the running! Maybe play Barkley behind the striker! I don't know! But I'm getting sick and tired of seeing the same players week in week out under performing! Mix it up a bit moyes give us something to cheer about if your going then go out on a high!

09 Mar 2013 21:14:57
If David Moyes does leave this summer what will his legacy be? In ten years time what will he be remembered for at Everton?

Has he saved us from certain relegation for a decade and fended off financial ruin?

Can anyone else do a better job? Or will all the moaners on this site have something to really complain about in 12 months time? {Ed025's Note - if we dont try nostra..we will never know mate..he has done a fine job, but sometimes you just have to move on, and i believe that time has come..

Come on Everton get Moyes out, were a proud club with proud fans and a proud history, we do not deserve to be messed around like this! It is insulting to fans and former players who have gave everything for that royal blue jersey!
Sorry but had to get that off my chest as what Moyes is doing is not on!
BlueCarl

Has Moyes been given any real finance to take the club forward? Was he on the pitch? Did he have that many options? WTF are so called Evertonians blaming him for! {Ed025's Note - because the buck stops with him!...if the players are not trying, or unmotivated...then he is not doing his job properly..

09 Mar 2013 20:46:26
For those who think we should stop having a go, this is why most fans do. This is my day:

Spend £19. 00 on the ticket. I did that last Friday.
Today I spend £3. 70 on the bus fare to Preston Bus Station. Then walk to the train station. At the station I spend £6. 25 on a return ticket to Kirkdale. I catch the train at 09. 59 (having left the house at 09. 00). I get off at Ormskirk and catch the train to Kirkdale. Then I fill the time before kick-off by going to the club shop and the fan zone. Then I watch that sh*te and go to Kirkdale train station. I get the train and get to Ormskirk. I then wait 1hour 20min for the train back to Preston. Finally I get off the train at Preston, walk to the bus stop and get the bus home to Bamber Bridge.

In all, I spent over £27 on the ticket and travel (and that's for a child ticket on the train, match, etc - just imagine an adult) and take up 10hours of my day. If we get to watch a football team that wins, or plays really well then I wouldn't mind. But doing my day just for that utter tripe is why fans have the right to do what we do, in terms of have a go.

The funny thing is though, I'll also do it as I love Everton, no matter how happy or sad I am. {Ed025's Note - great post keith...you may be young mate, but you have a good head on those shoulders..well done..

Im despondent after today, I don't know how we can recover, moyes out i'm also young 15 and am seriously worried about the prospect of my beloved everton ever winning a trophy in my lifetime

09 Mar 2013 20:33:40
Moyes contract should have been dealt with way back by the Board. and not aired like he did. has bad effect on the team. also the team captain has a role to play, The players are paid Enormous amount to play, They didn't. What happened to Nothing But The Best, What a laugh. The whole team Need a boot out along with moyes who has lost the plot. A rebuild with Accadamy players In the fore. Raz.

09 Mar 2013 20:29:51
Please please get rid of Moyes and bring Martinez in. I've said this for a year now. Thanks Moyes for keeping us in contention but now we are treading water because you are not able to take us further! Shocking today and there is only one man to blame Markyg

I agree. Because Martinez is doing a great job in the premiership on a small budget. He's had time to prove himself, yet you moyes haters still think he a better man to move us on in the league. Did you see the game last week against Liverpool? If you want his "hit or miss" style of play, maybe we should get Kevin Keegan out of retirement. We punch above our weight in terms of the money we spend, a fact I think some forget, because we've just got used to being higher in the league than we should. A proud history doesn't mean we a right to be top six, and I don't think a bottom six manager like Martinez will change that. Blue Lee

Get real. you are obviously happy with the rubbish we put out today. I M not happy and I pay my season ticket to see it. gutless today and its been coming for a while. we are rubbish. with this squad we should be far better. Moyes to blame

09 Mar 2013 20:24:14
He sold beckford for 4 mil but a player who stepped up from league 1 to the prem and get 10 goals that's good going.

Wee need players with a bit of attitude rather than all model professionals who respect other players too much and want I all be friends we don't want that we want players who want to win at any cost!

Moyes takes every player who he signs and tries to make them defend more. I know I will get slated for this but look at Royston drenthe he was class at going forward
And he was direct and moyes wanted him to chase back all game but that's not his game he had a attitude but he could provide special moments and you need then players in a team like ares with no budget

Moyes cut his nose off to spite his face last year with roy. so what he missed training, he was only on loan for f. ck sake. imho against the red rubbish at that semi final when we had the upper hand at half time roy could and should of been let loose to run them ragged. Half the time roy didn't know what even he was going to do.

2nd poster, do you know 'Roy' broke into the training ground, drunk with an entourage of women? And was out on the lash more often than not? Now you do {Ed025's Note - i like him even more now...lol

One lucky man wish it was me

2nd poster, sorry I meant jimmy. But, yea he did do that, allegedly, Ed. Great talent and a top player on his day but a loose cannon and a bloody person more often than not. Moyes is far from perfect but he gave him plenty of chances. Shame really as we could do with someone like that, unpredictable, because it's all a bit stale and predictable these last few months. Everyone makes mistakes but Moyes has been making them week in week out for the last 2/3 months or so.

09 Mar 2013 20:13:39
Truly shocking, not much I can say that hasn't already been said and I agree that the time has come for Moyes to depart. If he still honesty believes that his stance over his contract isn't having any negative impact on the club then he is a very deluded and arrogant man. Can't see any other club putting up with this so why should we, come on Bill grow a set and get rid, you will earn a lot of respect for doing so, and show us you do have the clubs best interests at heart. Well done to Wigan, absolutely superb performance, and hope Martinez is the next manager as I for one would love to see us playing like that.

09 Mar 2013 20:10:00
I posted earlier to calm down, but most of you don't get it. Do you think MOYES is a bad manager? Do you think you know better? MOYES is top 10 in the world when it comes to managers. Wigan had a 10 minute spell were it all went their way otherwise we controlled the game. And all you can do is bleat on about Neville! He is our best MF IMO he is the best player to have pulled on the blue shirt! Now stop moaning and get behind MOYES and the boys! Managers need time to build and I can see we're he is taking us and I want to follow! {Ed025's Note - managers need time?...how about 11 years..

What a plank!

"Neville is our best MF". sums up the post

'Neville is our best midfielder'. I cannot stop laughing. Cannot pass forwards, can't quickly pass a ball on. Can't turn. Need I say more? Just answer this: attribute for attribute, would you prefer Gibbo or our 'best midfielder' Neville?

And top 10 in the world? Please. I'm dying of laughter. Considering his budget, he probably is the best manager in many miles to do something with the budget, but as a full on manager, which includes not bottling it, etc, he's far from the top 10.

IMWT.

For those who are wondering why I put IMWT, I'm speaking in the future. In Martinez we trust. {Ed025's Note - that made me smile keith : )

So what ED 11 years? If you supported UTD youd have called for Fergies head in the 80s! Give Moyes another 11 he is doing a hard job better than anyone.

Moyes is building. I want Everton to be considered in the same breath as UTD, LIVERPOOL, REAL, BARCA but it will take time.

Also people need to lay off Neville if we lose him were do we get a replacement?

Too easy to BOO and moan and whine, thank God Moyes has more strength of character!

COYB {Ed025's Note - you sound like a liverpool supporter..

He's red trying to wind us up! Neville best player to pull on a blue shirt, either David Moyes or a red. Nothing to say but rsign Moyes please and take Round, Neville and Heitinger with you!

Do you think MOYES is a bad manager?. YES
Do you think you know better?. Yes

MOYES is top 10 in the world when it comes to managers. ''HaHa, of course he is''

Wigan had a 10 minute spell were it all went their way otherwise we controlled the game. ''You are having a laugh. ''

And all you can do is bleat on about Neville! He is our best MF IMO he is the best player to have pulled on the blue shirt!. ''Now you are just taking the piss''

Now stop moaning and get behind MOYES and the boys! Managers need time to build and I can see we're he is taking us and I want to follow!. ''11 years is not long enough, give him another 10 years Bill''

Mike

I thought it obvious immediately that post came from a red. Nobody, and I mean nobody can be that deluded. I've watched Everton for 36 yrs and that was comfortably the worst 'performance' I've seen. My local pub side have produced better than that this season, it was absolutely pathetic. Very painful to watch for all concerned

Some f. cking d. ckhead red I suspect. They call us bitter ffs have you ever heard them there more bitter than bitter. Hate anyone winnng anything, even anyone winning the zingari league gets slaughtered sad b. astards {Ed025's Note - your right jimmy...but keep the language down in future mate, as we have a lot of young viewers..

Fair play ed, sorry. Had a few today. just anger and frustration. {Ed025's Note - your allowed one jimbo..

09 Mar 2013 20:03:36
Can someone explain to me what the hell Moyes does to proven goalscorers?
12 months under Moyes' guidance and Jelavic has become another Yak, Saha, Beatie, AJ, Beckford, etc. They were all goalscorers. When Jelavic arrived he was unstoppable. Why does Moyes think everyone wants to see workhorses? You need selfish strikers who are instructed to stand on the halfway line at corners. Why does he want to turn them into team players? Tracking back and putting a shift in isn't what I want to see in a striker like Jelavic. He looks shattered and his confidence is shot to bits. If those players cannot be motivated or motivate themselves for a a game like that, then wholesale changes must be made. {Ed025's Note - he does seem to ruin them pablo..

That is spot on they Pablo he takes that natural instinct out of them having them run the channels and when they get there and put a ball in the box who is there yep no one maybe he should put captain phil up there he plays him whatever and at least there he is out of the bloody way! Also ed can you tell me why is vellios not even getting a sniff whenever I see the lad play he does not look out of place or is it DM won't play players under 25? Stefc {Ed025's Note - i give up ste..i know he fell out with him a while back, but he has deserved more of a chance..

09 Mar 2013 19:30:31
Just heard Moyes give a post match press interview in which he says, 'I'm disapointed for everone'. er ok that's alright then. After that today you are disapointed???! Well what about the lads and lasses on £6. 19 an hour who forked out the best part of a days work to watch that total sh*** that you put out on the pitch today?
I got a feeling they might be slightly more than disapointed.
That interview must be his last, the arrogance of this man is astounding.
To cheer himself on his way back to his mansion he could check what's in his bank account. I'm sure he won't be disapointed.

Last post from me tonight sorry but outraged.

Mushroom Man {Ed025's Note - no need to apologise mushy...we all feel the same mate..

09 Mar 2013 20:30:49
Hunk your a bit over the top. Ok bad performance bad day at office,,

09 Mar 2013 19:21:53
Time to leave Moyes. That was shocking. markyg

09 Mar 2013 18:24:27
The worrying thing for me is we all know baines and Fellaini could possibly go in the summer and are squad isn't strong enough and the fact a few players are the wrong side of 30. so too strengthen us we have too buy but without a pot too piss in we are f***ed. maybe Moyes knows this hence the rundown of his contract, he will probably say at least he didn't walk out on us done the best he could with the funds available, blah blah blah, so its not looking good for next season without investment!

If we sell Baines & Fellaini, we will have plenty of money to buy replacements.
Fellaini mentally has already left the club. I would hate to see Baines leave.
Neville should retire ASAP and Barkley is ready made to replace him now!
All round, today was terrible! but keep the faith! COYB {Ed025's Note - thats hard at the moment jeff..

Think your missing the point! If fellaini and baines do go then yes we will have funds too replace them but would the manager get all the money from the sales to get quality players to replace them? I think not as some of the money would be siphoned off to repay are debt plus we do need quality players in too cover are ageing and injury prone squad ie. osman, neville, howard, hibbert, gibson etc.

09 Mar 2013 18:07:25
Anyone know what went on in the Park End after about 60 minutes? I was sat on row E (Park End) but couldn't quite see.

In reference to the match, my view hasn't changed, in fact it's got stronger, since the Norwich match in terms if Moyesy going.

Worst performance by an Everton side in absolutely years.

09 Mar 2013 17:43:15
Don't know if I'm the first to say but as angry and upset as I am I would like to say well played to Wigan, completely deserved it

09 Mar 2013 17:38:59
Football clubs sack managers at stupid times, in my opinion this is the perfect time to ask Moyes to sign now or your sacked. Nothing left to play for, safe from relegation give a new guy a month or so with the squad to let him see what changes he wants to make in the summer.
Thanks Moyes for a job well done but you have left us with an ageing old squad that needs a complete overhaul. You can no longer hold the small amounts if rights you had to hold our club to ransom. You either sign tonight or you quit/get pushed in the morning. A new dawn rises.

Svenny {Ed025's Note - im with you svenny..

''you have left us with an ageing old squad that needs a complete overhaul''

That is the most depressing part mate. The average age is ridiculous, youth players don't get a look in here.

Mike

Can't he just go tonight?

09 Mar 2013 17:15:34
Osman has his england cap and now thinks that entitles him to just walk around the midfield when we have the ball - watch him in future games - like
coleman or one of the centre backs is trying to play the ball out from the back and osman makes no effort at all to join in and make himself available for a pass - that's the reason we get overun

together with neville being an absolutely horrible footballer now with no skill - and just sideways backwards passes

coleman can't defend - he marks space between players and watches as the ball gets passed around him

put those three combinations together and you're going to get spanked

To give neville the ball is a waste he hasn't a clue what to do. we have a player the envy of all the top clubs and we won't even see him in a blue shirt for a season under neg moyes if today didn't prove we will never win anything with nm nothing will tom efc.

09 Mar 2013 16:55:50
I am a massive Everton fan and have followed them since I was six years old so that's 44 years!
David moyes, in my mind has reached the limit of his ability and should now think of doing the decent thing and leave and let a more experienced Manager take over. He's not signed his contract and made it public he will decide what to do when he finds out where we finish. This is obviously rubbing off on the squad as you could see today against Wigan.
Please Mr. Moyes, please quit and let us re-group as we will never do or win anything with you in charge.
If Bill had a pair of b. ks he would get rid and replace now. Yet another mid table finish with no trophy.
How could David Moyes think he could finish in European places with the performances he keeps producing.
In Moyes we do not trust!

Moyes doesn't help the situation by not signing a new contract-morale is low and you could see that on the pitch today. Time to give the younger players a chance

09 Mar 2013 16:38:39
I have always been a massive supporter of Moyes and kenwright and what they have done for my beloved club, in saying that though I'm still trying to get my head around what happened today, still can't quite believe it, however i've just seen Moyes's post match interview, and all I can say is B. S.

Moyes said we had an off day all round and were not good enough! Well Mr Moyes we were playing a relegation fighting club resting plyers, at home I may add, in front of an amazingly vocal and supportive crowd and yet we play one up front and Neville in midfield. Now I understand resting Gibbo with his injury, but we have hitz and barkly on the bench!

Wigan came and played with 3 up front! they went for it, and fair play to them, we were one dimensional again and when Wigan swamped midfield we looked lost! its at times like this that a manager earns his keep but Moyes looked like a rabbit caught ion the headlights!

Some of our players were a disgrace, no passion, no heart, no desire, again its up to the management staff to ensure players are mentally fit for a game, some of them looked like they were already thinking of their summer holidays or even what club they were leaving for! i'm under no illusions that we can compete with the likes of city, united and Chelsea however all I ask and have ever asked is that we give 100%, that we leave it all out on the pitch, if the players give their all and its not good enough, well then we can ask for no more!

However can we really blame the players? our season has been going down hill since the January transfer window, no signings, unrest in the camp and Moyes not signing the contract, I firmly believe there is more going on behind the scenes than we know. But with so much uncertainty around our club at the moment I feal that our season is over, i'm just glad we have enough points to avoid relegation! Success starts at the top, you need to have faith in your leadership, but it seems as if our club is lost at the moment!

We need the board to back the manager but we also need the manager to back the board, then and only then will our players have direction and purpose!

Kurajan

09 Mar 2013 16:29:04
you have made a liverpool fans day,

you lot really are crap and we are on our way back

with the magic guru BR, he will take us places.

have a nice day bitters

Says the team whose season was over a month ago, and are still below us! You really are deluded aren't you, suddenly think you're going places because you've beaten Swansea reserves and Wigan reserves? Clap clap you little gobsh*te.

Ed stop posting these ridiculous, hypocritical, deluded kopsh*tes posts on here please, all the best

09 Mar 2013 16:16:40
Well my king prawn on a saturday night from the local chinese has more backbone than that team today. You can tell the players aren't playing for Moyes any more as his contract scenario isn't helping. One positive thing though. the meat and potato pies looked nice in the ground.

09 Mar 2013 16:09:56
This type of performance and result has been on the cards for sometime now. I feel Neville's days as a player for us are well and truly behind him. I don't know why Gibson did not start and why Neville was picked before him. Moyes got it so badly wrong today, but when it comes to important games, games that mean something, he always gets it wrong. I think Barkley should play in every game that's left, this season to bring his game on and we need his energy in there. After today's game I feel both Fellaini's and Moyes's dreams of going to a so called bigger, better club, have nosedived into the dirt! When it really matter's they don't produce! Good luck to Wigan they deserved today, but we made it a stroll in the park for them!

09 Mar 2013 16:06:10
Still a lot to play for yes wembly would of been nice but it wasn't to be but no fa cup now full concentration must be on finishing 4th we can still do it keep the spirit up blues look what happened last year when the rubbish knocked us out we start playing our best COYB good luck to Wigan hope they win it Stef the blue

Your deluded do you really think we have got a hope in hell of finishing 6 th let alone 4th

And you say we are deluded we will finish above you

Dont be so stupid. we will be lucky to finish in the top 8.

I agree I don't like being negative and never am but with jelly not scoring and "bale fc" and "suarez fc" on form we will slip, even swansea have a chance mathematically, we have big games coming up and the others have played most of theirs if we can't score against wigan at home what chance do we have while the other teams have players bangin em in for a laugh, we would have to be city, arsenal (A), spurs (A) and win the derby to be in a chance of keeping our current position never mind 4th agefc

09 Mar 2013 16:02:38
Have you gobbled off too soon AGAIN? All players legends when 2 good games etc etc. couldn't happen to nicer bunch

09 Mar 2013 15:46:05
I agree Neville is useless now only passes back or sideways think we should start planning for life with out moyes and fellaini. Moyes has done well but he loves the seasoned professionals to much Barkley or hitz could do nevs job and why don't we play 2 up top at home jelavic needs support from the start what was looking like a great season a couple of months ago is now in danger of becoming disastrous anyway upwards and onwards now blue boys forget today and concentrate on the league COYB

09 Mar 2013 15:26:35
Anyone who saw the Wigan game on Boxing Day knew it would be a tough match today. Osman and Neville were appalling, totally outplayed and Fellaini was truly diabolical. Jelavic may not be scoring goals but at least he is putting a shift in.

I think it is over for Moyes now and he will leave this summer. Whoever comes in will first need to offload Fellaini and possibly Baines and then rebuild the team. Howard, Neville, Distin, Hibbert and Osman are on the way down. Heitinga and Jelavic have been poor all season.

There is a big job to do and we could easily be involved in a relegation scrap next season, Martinez would be perfect then!

Two positives today, Ross Barkley played and Mucha looked ok!

We have got to keep Baines

09 Mar 2013 15:06:51
In the 55 years I have folowed this club, I have seen the great, good and bad times. Today was one of the worst. Moyes was like a rabbit in the headlights, and those substitutions the mark of a true genius.
I will not waste my money going to watch while this balloon remains in charge. Top 4? We won't finish in the top 10. Wonder what excuse his media friends will come out with this week.
Hopefully this is like the Middlesborough game that finished Smith, if Kenwright has the b******* he was born with. If not then a plea from the heart to David Moyes. GO NOW

09 Mar 2013 15:34:14
well said and I agree with you moyes out now, coyb

I've done 50 years as a supporter and today's performance (especially the first half) and result are up there with the worst. Credit to Wigan, but we were complete rubbish. Anyway, now we can concentrate on the league - ha ha! We've enough points to avoid relegation - but I doubt we'll now get enough to qualify for Europe - so an immediate change of manager isn't so bad from that point of view. However, we're unlikely to get a new manager until the summer - unless we get a dreaded "interim" appointment. There's surely no way BK will sack DM, but the fans are now turning on the team and booing the players, so how soon before DM fulfils his commitment that he'll leave when the fans no longer want him? A season whose first few months promised so much is now collapsing into abject capitulation. So, for me it's a big thank you to DM for the many positive aspects of his more than a decade here, but it's now time for someone else to bring a fresh approach.

Ideally Moyes will quit now but he's too arrogant to do so. A new manager now would give him time to get to know the club, blood the youngsters and then sell felli and baines (I'll miss baines!) in the summer and rebuild with the 50m. We have too many at the end if their careers and tweaks are no longer enough.

Pod

I was going to say that the coventry game on new years eve 1983 shaded it as the worst game I have ever seen at goodison but on reflection that shambles today takes the title. what a load of rubbish, moyes, go now while you still have some credability in footballing circles. as for fellaini, if some mug wants to give us in excess of £25m for him take the money and run, his attitude today stunk. domo

09 Mar 2013 15:06:02

I don't post on this site often and reading regular posts I have to vent the frustration of I'm sure every Everton fan on here we where outplayed today Wigan seemed to have more passion and more guile to be honest I feel that this will be the nail in the coffin for DM unless we get European football but playing like we did that's a tough ask with the games we have coming Phil Neville for a me has been a good servant over his time at efc but with a quality player like Barkley or even Gibson sat on the bench it begets belief why he gets picked also the reaction of felli was shocking because he dd t have a good game he walks down the tunnel, as much as I will get slated for this felli has been ok since we signed him and has had great season so far does tommy grav spring to mind as a fan I can't take no positives from that performance but I do hope that DM does stay but unless we strengthen big time we are always going to be a side of what if and that pains me to say sorry guys for ranting but let's hope my passport is needed for next season

we got just what we deserved from that game, sweet fa. from start to finish we were second best to everything, I can't think of a single positive point from an everton perspective. the players looked completely uninterested and moyes' tactics were so wrong it was unbelievable. taxi for moyes and take neville and osman with you. domo

worst I have seen us play am totally shocked, nevelle spelling well no words can say what I think just shocking game. one question I watching at home when felli got subbed the crowed booed commentry seem to think crowed booed felli which I dnt understand I think its more to do with the fact he has been taken off and not aimed at him. I know we played shocking but if am wrong and fans are booing felli off the pitch. well wow fickle very fickle.

anyway the game first goal I will accept
second goal I dnt slate players tbh but this should be nevs last game tbf like playing with 10 men
3rd goal defence back off way too much and mucha didn't move at all he didn't move for any goals or when they hit post. so not good enough for prem.

after watching this game and the manner we played I have now relised one thing we won't win a cup anytime soon or finish in the top 4 anytime soon either and the reason is simple as a team we just have not got the bottle we can't hold our nerves

people may not agree but this is how I see it

Neville should retire Fellaini thinks he!s a superstar. Jelavic pathetic. Time for a change Moyes to go please

Blame the manager toffee

Felliani is overrated sell i'm and buy 3 quality players

Everyone was booing Fellaini because he was just strolling around not bothered. An just before he came off he lost the ball an just turned his back on play an started walking away

Felli was booed because he had a go at the fans after we had a go at him for giving up. Get rid I say although I wouldn't pay £5m for him today.

what a load of rubbish another season with sod all and next week it ll be the same boring negative formation and the same players captain marvel neville leading the way moyes complains about the size of his squad and won't even give other players a chance because he's content with finishing 7th or 8th well i'm not content with that if he wants to win something u have to take a big risk moyes never does oviedo duffy barkley hitz stones don't get a chance gibson on the bench and if he's injured why put him on the bench so fed up right now sick of this negative football going on for months now spurs attack constantly we try to defend when we clearly cannot so try attacking mr moyes. youve gone as far as u can go with this team the club and u both need a change 11 years and nothing to show for it other managers would ave been sacked after 2 years and your earning a fortune

The only positive from today was mucha didn't make any mistakes. Not one player played well. Teams have worked out how to stop us but moyes will pick the same team week in week out. Imo the biggest mistake was leaving gibbo out. He makes us tick. I've always been a big moyes fan but him not making up his mind about his contract hasn't helped at all. I think he has done an amazing job but his hearts not in it any more and maybe now he should leave before all his good work is forgotten about. I would give serious consideration to martinez or even stubbs and dunc could have a go maybe working with peter reid at least ther all big blues and there heart would be in it just my opinion tho. Btw great performance from wigan and a really good club. All the best wigan ill b cheering for you to lift the cup.

Mucha didn't make a mistake? he was static the 3rd goal he watched the ball leave his foot and watched it all the way into the net and didn't move at all am notblaming him for today but he didn't move for 2 goals not good enough at least try to dive

Mate I was behind the goal. Mucha didn't see it because the guy bent it around the defender. Quality goal not keepers fault.

Any could See the balance was wrong in first 5 minutes, why can't moyse see it. He don't care anymore. We were out played at home by Wigan. Moyse can do one to Germany for all I care he lost us this match. Bill I have backed you. It's now time you and bored leave

Moyes to get Man U job, don't make me laugh? After this he would be lucky to get his old Preston job back.
Muppet try Celtic mate you might win something there.

Too boring for Man Utd

Martinez has just sent in a strong application.

Nev and Ossie off for Vic and Gibbo surely

If we ever need Jelly to fire its now. If they come out for 2nd half with Neville in the team the I'm going to punch the TV

09 Mar 2013 13:42:34
Absolute disgrace. Moyes should be escorted from the ground now - never mind his team talk - and take his love child with him

09 Mar 2013 13:40:41
Half time at Goodison. Never seen a moyes' everton team so uninterested and lethargic. No drive or willingness to show for a pass. Wigan have done their homework but where is our ability to change a system when it isn't working. Too one dimensional and been found out by Wigan. Neville shouldn't be on the pitch, Osmans season is catching up with him and mirralas and piennar missing. moyes, time to show your perspective new. Club next season how good a manager you are by winning the second half by 4 goals!

come on the blues 4 3 we will win. Stef the blue 45 mis come on iget into them

09 Mar 2013 13:36:43
to all those who don't want Martinez as the next everton boss, got any thoughts on the matter now?

09 Mar 2013 13:35:55
Ed Can you believe this? what's going on i'm gobsmacked.

09 Mar 2013 13:32:01
Coleman and Neville have been run ragged down our right hand side - they simple do not get tight to their men - so wigan can play triangles round them all day long

nightmare performance - their guys just look a lot hungrier for it

09 Mar 2013 13:29:45
Negative negative negative. One striker, Neville midfield and were the home team?
Moyes to leave? Let him. Need a new owner, manager. Not the players fault the managers every time. A real sad day to be a blue. Next red rubbish to finish above us. Great season, really?

100% agree. We are 6th they are going to get relegated yet we go defensive. What is wrong with Moyes. Why is it all supporters know Neville is finished yet he continues to play him. If Moyes has not subbed Neville off at Half-time I am going to bed.

I know it is unpopular but it makes sence to ground share and build a super Merseyside stadium.

No it doesn't

09 Mar 2013 10:24:14
I fancy Everton strongly today got them on my coupon so they better not let me down! I'm not a fan of Everton but I do hope they can lift the cup this season to do this must keep on the attack for the full 90 minutes no defending leads. Good luck TONY B

Howard won't be out for a month, it will be the season. If he has broke 2 bones in his lower back that has to around 2 months, and even when he comes back it will be hard to be the same goalkeeper!

09 Mar 2013 09:20:26
Moyes wants to stay at everton he wants to wait until end of season to see
What individual players intentions are
With tv money coming aswell he wants to make sure all funds go back into the
Squad and not on bk high interest loans
Bk sees Moyes as his most important
Asset so a compromise must be reached if Moyes looses players with out recieving funds then expect him to walk even without a job to go to his
Waiting til the end of the season is him
Trying to show bk he's not going to be messed with who else is going to come in and do the job Moyes has done we should applaud him coyb

08 Mar 2013 22:59:55
Everton aren't we on are claiming there is a strange change in the line up tomorrow! There always spot on with team news (don't know how) but they are, they say Mucha and Heitinga are starting and there is one more change that they can't get there head around!
I'm guessing it's Neville in there for someone knowing Moyes!

People disagreeing but I have no doubt that Neville will start! More than likely for Coleman or Osman

Looks like you were spot on lad, Neville for Gibbo, what's that all about? We'll soon see, I suppose.
