Just finished watching the first half on football first, how we we were not 4 down is anyones guess, two stone wall pens too, we have used up all the luck that went against us earlier in the season plus more. commentators say it was the most one sided half they ever seen, and its hard to disagree.

and another thing you fucking self harming low self esteem twat we absolutely battered Everton second half. Get a fucking grip.

I didn't like your dismissive view of the team's performance and, yes it f*cking annoyed me. So I thought I say something. Sorry if I upset you,

agreed though weve played much much better (chelsea) and lost. everton fans thought we deserved the win. thought that was odd given their total domination in the 1st half

motd tonight was a joke - showed all the everton chances but didnt show the 2 chances le fondre had - one in the 1st half where he beat the keeper and then had a bad shot and the other when he was one on one with the keeper and jaglieka made a brilliant last ditch tackle....WTF!!!

im beginning to hate bbc and motd more and more, same goes for the bloody refs favouring the big teams

you're right - we should have given up at half time.

At the risk of abuse from Leon,

But how many fans can (honestly) say they thought we would win after that first half?
Not that we might win but actually thought that we would win - cant be many
Personally i was all doom and gloom at half time and could see no way back. So glad to be proved wrong but it was an amazing unexpected turnaround

[melonhead]

surely you can never say when predicting a future event, so by definition even the positive ones would have said might.

i said before half time if we got in at only 1-0 i thought there was a good chance of a point

[creative_username_1]

I don't think we were totally outplayed in the first half

[melonhead]

agreed - shaky at the back, and passed poorly going forward, but still managed to get a few chances, and it certainly wasnt 1 way traffic

Stonewall is a strong word but they were definite pens to my eyes.

[Ian Royal]

I can see why both were not given. But I'd expect them to be called at least 8 times out of 10. Whereas ours I'd expect to be called 10 times out of 10.
