Red Cards? I think Liverpool got 2 of them in one game vs Spurs, Spearing then got one, so that puts the club on 3 reds that I can recall.
Liverpool have three games in eight days. They play us on the 13th, their FA Cup tie on the 17th, then that match. Well I guess that's nine days.
What were you doing on a Man U website? J/K Did you ever see the little clip about when Liverpool came back and beat AC Milan for the CL. All the Everton fans, and Fergie were having heart attacks. Even though I'm Everton, that was funny as hell, especialy the actor playing Fergie. I don't know how they made this mistake but when the Everton fans are inside the pub the jerseys have the old Asian writing on them. But when they come outside the pub, the shirts all have "Chang" on them. If I can find it, I'll post it.

It's possibly one of the worst things I've ever seen, despite a good friend 'starring' in it. Dave Kirby is an utter bulb too.
:: @ Caligula- yeah, I've seen it, they even had a stage production. I think its funny enough. I go onto Man United sites to see how many Liverpool threads they have going at any one time. Its usually loads. @Joe- Kirby is a street poet. 'Spect the man. He went on LFC.TV and started to recite this poem and Barnes and Aldridge were there...the most uncomfortable TV moment of my life. Barnes and Aldridge looked like they were suppressing tears, or strong intestinal gases, maybe both at the same time. It as fucking brutal. Kirby was drawling on about fathers and sons eating poisoned butties on the terraces as Heighway bombed past or some other shite. The only thing that comes close to it is yer man from Cast singing Poor Scouser Tommy...the ending is pure gold, not to mention the comments underneath. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ZlPPfieR7tA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
I hate pussy tinkerbell fairy players who go down on nothing challenges. They know what they're doing.
From the Fulham-Everton match I went to in late October. This was supposed to be from the "neutral" section of the grounds but it was 97% Evertonians.
Everton on the attack. We were actually very close to losing this match. Zamora missed a sitter that would have given Fulham a 2-1 lead with very little time left. Everton came right back down and scored in front of our fans. We were still celebrating that goal when a third went in. :cheer:
Looks like great seats, Cal. Good shots. I'll take a few snaps of us scoring against your lot on saturday ::
Sheffield Wesnesday have sacked Gary Megson, despite them lying third in League one. Another strange sacking.
He must not be very likable. The Bolton fans were calling for his head and despite their poor position this season the fans seem to be all behind Martinez.
That was the my seventh English football match and the first time I came close to seeing anything close to resembling a "fight." It was between Everton fans and other Everton fans. :NotThink: A bunch of young lads decided instead of taking their seats, to stand in the aisle just to the right of me. There were about 10-15 of them and they were blocking the view of some of the people when the ball went into the far corner. The Fulham security were total pussies. They went up there five different times to sit these kids down and were told to fuck off and just turned around and beat feet. Finally some other Everton fans started shouting abuse at them and it went back and forth for a while. Enough people around me threatened them enough for them to bottle it but they still stood in the aisle until the end. When we scored the third goal the guy behind me pushed me fwd and then pulled me back and I grabbed the guy in front of me for leverage and ended up flipping him backwards and the guys behind me fell forward and knocked the guy next to me down as well. And there was a big pile up of drunk bastards celebrating the last two goals. I swear when we were all still in the pile, somebody grabbed my dick and didn't seem like in an accidental way. :scratcher: You English bastards are crazy! ::
Sounds good. Being in a proper football crowd should always feel like you're two reffing calls away from civilization dissolving.
Yeah. We we were all jumping around, singing and still celebrating the second goal and out of nowhere a third goal goes in. All hell broke loose and bodies were everywhere. Good times! :bow:
:: :: It's so funny when you get one or two tits who cause a stir and become centre of attention. There's this one guy who sits a few seats to the left of me at QPR and he screams nothing but "kick him", "hurt him", "break his fucking legs" towards the players. At one match he got what he deserved - a big fat ginger bloke hurled abuse his way and told him to shut the fuck up and to stop being so pathetic. He soon kept quiet ::
:: :: this is fucking hilarious. Somebody grabbed your cock??? Worst incident I ever had at a game was this handicapped girl who kept standing up and uttering these Whitman-esque barbaric yawps and howls of tortured derision everytime something didn't go the home-teams way. This might be deemed acceptable in most scenarios, except here, the home-team were none other than Shelbourne FC, now defunct, and they were playing the illustrious Galway United in front of around 2000 people. :: So the ref would award a free kick the wrong way and she would be like "Yaaaaaaaaaauuuuwwwwrrrrrppppppppaaaaahhhnnngggggg" with her head thrown back, wailing like a demented lobo. Fucking embarrassing.
A boy comes home from primary school one day. His mother notices that he's got a big smile on his face. She asks, "You look happy, did anything special happen at school today?" "Yes mum - I had sex with my English teacher!" he replied. The mother is stunned. "Get up them stairs now and wait until your father gets home!" The dad comes home and hears the news; he's as pleased as punch. Beaming with pride, he walks over to his son and says, "I hear you had sex with your English teacher." "That's right, Dad." "Well, you became a man today - this is a cause for celebration. Let's get fish and chips, then I'll buy you that bike you've been asking for." "Mint! - but I can I have a football instead? My arse is killing me."
I keep running into other Americans at English football these days. Saw another American Everton fan (female) walking home from Tottenham away last season. She asked me if I was a fan because of Donovan? I told her I've liked Everton since '04. She was with a guy who looked English so she may have been married to a Scouser. I was standing up against a wall drinking at Craven Cottage and I saw this country ass dude who looked lost. I thought to myself "This guy has to be American." Sure enough he walks up to me and in his Virginia accent starts asking me about how all of this works, how we can't drink in the seats, and how the crowd is separated. 25,000 people there and he asks another American to explain to him how English football "works." As soon as I answered him he looked at me like I was from outer space. "You're American too." Once he fucked off three Fulham fans stood by me (weird that the fans are mixed before the match at Craven) and two of the three had American accents. I remmeber that Fulham did have five US players on their roster a few years back. On my way to get another beer, I saw two more groups of Americans dressed in their NFL gear. This was the day of the Bears-Buccaneers NFL game at Wembley. I walked to Hammersmith after the match and got on the tube with a bunch of English people dressed up in NFL gear. I am dressed in all Everton gear surrounded by English people wearing American football jerseys and hats.
After we beat you on saturday, our chances will be greater of surviving :crafty: Are you going to catch the game online?
I'm hoping they show it here. I haven't checked yet but they show about six or seven Prem matches per week here(on two diffferent channels.) About five are live and two others tape delayed. I think every Everton match of 2012 has been on US TV (digital cable) so far.
