arsenal 1 wolves (10 men) 1
tottenham 1 wolves 1
swansea 3 arsenal 2
dmbs 2 blckburn 3
pool 1 blackburn 1
wigan 0 liverpool 0
wigan 1 chelsea 1
qpr 1 chelsea 0
west brom.0 city 0

to be quite frank if we dont turn up and scrap for at least a point in either of our next 2 league games we should feck off out of the league and let another team have a go. We are the only team incapable of scrapping against the big boys.

Prove me wrong lads.

agree with the sentiment to a large extent... but not many take three points away from Goodison

Plenty have come away with 3 points from Goodison this season.
Everton have lost 5 of 10 home games.

Bogdan will continue in goal; Jussi's back in training but not ready. Notable that they're not rushing him back. If Boggers impresses again this weekend, he should be seen as the current shirt-holder rather than a seat-warmer.

When Carrol's on the pitch our centre backs had better be on their toes. A lot of balls will get banged in his direction and he can jump and head a ball. He's pretty nippy too, for a big lad. We need to keep possesion and not just by knocking it square and backwards. Just hope N'gog sets out to prove some points and we need to take it to them and don't do a trapped in the box session and just worry about keeping them out. A few early balls into the edge of the box might not go amiss. Klasnic might just be a key figure in this one.

I get the feeling that because Klasnic was benched throughout last Premiership game and started in the FA Cup replay game that OC won't be picking him for this one.

Normally without Suarez you'd fancy this.

But with Knight and Wheater together at the back, we're sure to concede and unlikely to match that with goals.

We'll start brightly, they'll look shaky, then out of the blue we'll concede the softest goal ever and go on to lose 2/3-0.

I'll be erecting my 'Bad Runs Ended Here' banner on the roundabout again this weekend, just for Andy Carroll. It's worked for every 4ucker else! :hang:

My view too though it could be OUR bad run at home which ends ...... maybe, just maybe

I bought some eggs yesterday and asked the lady where they came from. She went and looked it up and told me it was Chorley. Chorley is much closer to Bolton than it is Liverpool, it could be a sign. I bought 6 eggs so I think there will be 6 goals, 3-3, 4-2, 5-1 or 6-0 maybe.

I also got some chicken but that was from Doncaster so obviously irrelevant.

No. no, that's relevant. Chickens equate to referees (running about headless and all that) in divinatory circles - so it means something, we've just got to work out what.

Dioufy plays for Doncaster now, and he's played for both clubs - ergo - nailed on draw! FACT! ;)

hahahahahahahah!!!! Coyle just can't help himself can he!!!
SkySpurts wrote:Bolton manager Owen Coyle is convinced it is only a matter of time before Andy Carroll finds the sort of form that made him such a huge favourite at Newcastle.

Carroll has struggled to live up to his £35million price tag - which makes him the most expensive British footballer in history - in the 12 months since he left Tyneside to join Liverpool.

Far from leading the line, the 23-year-old could not even make the Reds' starting line-up for last weekend's draw at Stoke, even though Luis Suarez is in the middle of an eight-match suspension.

Carroll is hoping to be recalled for Saturday's trip to Bolton but Coyle, for one, would not welcome that news as he believes the big number nine is a class act.

"I don't think there is any doubt he will reproduce that form," said Coyle.

"He is an outstanding young player.

"The thing is, when you get that kind of criticism you have to come through it with a smile on your face.

"It will serve him well. His quality is unquestioned. We have to make sure he doesn't show it against us."
