Everton-Villa 1st up, I've no doubt Stevie G will be given a warm welcome by the home support.

Keane dropped to the bench. as is Ings for the visitors.

Got a feeling Duncie F will win this one.

Forest v Derby on Sky Sports, plus Bristol City v Cardiff an early kick off as well, everything 0-0 so far.

Brilliant move by Derby, Tom Lawrence misses a sitter in a big derby game, sound familiar?

Careful. Overnight news still has us after him.

I would take him to be honest, on a cheaper price as well due to Derby's financial troubles, we can still take joy at his past misses though

Brice Samba in the Forest net has a lump the size of a chicken egg popping out of his head after colliding with a Derby player.

More crowd incidents sadly - two players injured because of something thrown on from crowd after Villa scored.

minnieclaret · Post by **minnieclaret** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 1:22 pm

Villa take lead and Matty Cash and Ramsay struck by bottle(s) thrown from crowd.
No goading going on although they were celebrating gy the corner flag.
Stiff sentences and lifetime bans might help eradicate this.

More drinks bottles like Lowton at Leeds. Time to ban people taking bottles to their seats? Pathetic.

Lighters, coins and a full bottle of something on the pitch next to both players

Not condoning it whatsoever but there does seem a bit of ‘inciting’ from some celebrations these days. Cash clearly told the Everton fans to ‘**** off’ when he joined the group to celebrate prior to being hit.

It’s an absolute disgrace. It’s happening again and again at grounds.

Let's deduct 10 points from Everton

sorry but we're that desperate anything would help

jrgbfc · Post by **jrgbfc** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 1:36 pm

Maybe players should stop deliberately goading opposition fans when they score?

claretburns · Post by **claretburns** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 1:38 pm

Forest lead against Derby, Lewis Grabban, 1-0. A few Forest fans spill onto the pitch to celebrate.

jos · Post by **jos** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 1:42 pm

I know that at Turf Moor CCTV cameras monitor the fans, I would assume it would be the same throughout all the PL grounds.

Lets get in for Keane. He doesn't seem to have settled in there and some of tge fans dont rate him. He was suoerb for us with our style of play ie. no midfield to speak of.

And maybe fans shouldn’t be chucking objects onto the pitch. It’s a problem that’s getting worse. There was no goading when I saw a Burnley fan throw something onto the pitch at Goodison. This is a worrying problem.

It doesn't matter what players do, you don't throw anything - full stop.

claretburns · Post by **claretburns** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:05 pm

How few braincells must someone have to see an opposing player make a gesture or express words that automatically makes you think I need to throw something?

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:06 pm

Everton with ome great crossing into the box but, Villa holding one.
They're starting to sound a bit worried, Toffee fans.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:13 pm

Forest 2-0

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:16 pm

Peno for Derby...scored.
2-1

claretburns · Post by **claretburns** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:17 pm

Refreshing watching a Championship game when a ref makes a decision and you're not having to wait for VAR to check it.

2-1 Forest with a few minutes left via a penalty.

5th yellow this season for a keeper, sort of sums him up.

claret2018 · Post by **claret2018** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:21 pm

Maybe opposition players should think twice before scoring goals if they don’t want things thrown at them?

No excuse for it,cannot be condemned enough FFS it's a game.

Ravel Morrison sent off for Derby, rightly so, but Samba should be off as well.

jos · Post by **jos** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:28 pm

Villa beat Everton 0-1, Good game

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:28 pm

2-1 FT
Full scale handbags on the pitch at the end.
That keeper's a bell end.

taio · Post by **taio** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:30 pm

Morrison should've been sent off in the first minute for having Ravel on the back of his shirt

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Sat Jan 22, 2022 2:46 pm

Is it now time to count Everton in the relegation battle? on recent form you'd have to say yes it is.

.....and it's a 'yes' to you, too, Tiger76. Thought Everton would get something from today with Big Dunc in charge. If they're not getting anything today seems like it's a bigger job to sort Everton out and think they are in the relegation battle......which is good

Anything which keeps more teams involved the better for us, and this isn't a short term blip from Everton, they've struggled for a few months now.

Doubt it will happen, but can you imagine Everton and Newcastle playing in the Championship next season.

If Everton were to go down would they be the biggest club to be relegated since football was reinvented in 1992, or are Aston Villa a bigger club?

Everton were a big club when I started watching football and also the wealthiest backed by the Moore’s family.

Man City surely, although that was prior to the dodgy money.

Newcastle and West Ham also, but Everton and Villa are both founding members, and they are generally considered established PL clubs, just shows how tough even the bigger clubs find it to sustain a place at the top table doesn't it.

Man City were barely bigger than us (hyperbole) when they got relegated and I bet Newcastle, West Ham and Leeds combined haven't won anything like Everton or Villa have by themselves.

City weren’t a big club in any way until these last few years when all the money rolled in.
