Today's football

[RalphCoatesComb]

As parlous (or indeed perilous) as our situation looked just a few weeks ago, I am convinced that all will be fine at t'Turf for next season in The Premier League.

Sheffield were virtually down before Christmas and, as good as the point was for BFS against Manure today, they are too far adrift and will be visiting Deadwood next season. Their GD alone is worth - 1 point.

That leaves Fulham. No win since November 2nd ! After Everton, the next three games will decide whether they stay up with games against us, Sheffield and Palace. A maximum of 4 points there with some very difficult games after that. No, sorry Scott, a 9 point gap at this stage is TOO great. You're going down !

[FCBurnley]

All Fulham so far. Should be 2 up

[Longsider]

Come on Everton. If you win 8 nil you go above Liverpool into 4th

[tiger76]

All Fulham so far. Should be 2 up

Yep they've made a lively start, we need Everton to wake the heck up here.

[Buxtonclaret]

All Fulham so far. Should be 2 up

Been the same whenever I've seen them this season.
They play some good stuff.
But when it comes to scoring, they just keep on cocking it up.

[ClaretLoup]

Don’t jinx it Buxton.

[Vegas Claret]

would be nice if Everton remember there is a game on, woeful so far

[FCBurnley]

Everton playing for a 0-0 ?

[Buxtonclaret]

Phew.
Come on, Everton

[Rojales Claret]

Why are people worried if Fulham win tonight. They'll still be 8 points behind us, the same as they were 2 weeks ago with 2 games less to play. If anyone should be worried it would be Newcastle.

[Steve1956]

Fulham could play five more extra matches than us this season and still not catch us stop worrying the current bottom three are doomed

Prefer Fulham to stay up and the Mags go down.

[Steve1956]

Me to Buxton,it wont happen though

[DomBFC1882]

Fulham are battering them. Everton are dreadful

[DomBFC1882]

Me to Buxton,it wont happen though

I'd prefer Brighton more than any of them down there

[Steve1956]

I'd prefer Brighton more than any of them down there

Me to Dom....but it wont happen

[Steve1956]

Everton really are a boring club going absolutely nowhere...very surprised Ancelotti took that job.

[DomBFC1882]

Me to Dom....but it wont happen

Sadly I think you're right Steve.

We can live in hope though

[Rileybobs]

Everton really are a boring club going absolutely nowhere...very surprised Ancelotti took that job.

They are just 3 points outside the top 4 with 3 games in hand.

[DomBFC1882]

They are just 3 points outside the top 4 with 3 games in hand.

How scary is that

[FCBurnley]

They are just 3 points outside the top 4 with 3 games in hand.

How on earth have they done that !!!

[Steve1956]

They are just 3 points outside the top 4 with 3 games in hand.

And....still going nowhere....come on Rileybobs,they are bobbins getting bossed on their own pitch by relegation fodder.

[jrgbfc]

How on earth have they done that !!!

They're a good side?

[DomBFC1882]

And....still going nowhere....come on Rileybobs,they are bobbins getting bossed on their own pitch by relegation fodder.

At least they can't get worse second half Steve

[chekhov]

Everton players: no desire, no intensity.
They’re just don’t seem that bothered.
I think Fulham will face a completely different proposition come Wednesday.

[Rileybobs]

Not watching the game, I've already treated the other half to 3 games today! They are a bit of a 'meh' club, but this season they've got a great chance to make the top 4 - probably due to the weakness of other sides as much as Everton's quality. I'd expect Chelsea to kick on under Tuchel and make the cut though.

But they are four points off a top four place with 3 games in hand....I wonder what's up with him ?

[LeadBelly]

Fulham move the ball around really nicely but dont have a lot of cutting edge and always look like they can let a soft one in.

As a few have mentioned, Everton look poor tonight, they seem really lethargic and lacking ideas going forward without C-L to lead the attack. I assume Ancelotti is going to "have a few words" during the interval.

[bfcjg]

Ancelotti had his safe stolen from his house the other day, I bet his tactics booklet was in it.

You agree with me then....Everton are shite then?

Eh?

[Rileybobs]

Well they're better than us.

[gsyclaret]

Richarleson 4 touches in the first half, they need to give him the ball

[Steve1956]

Eh?

Read the thread stop cherry picking

[BurnleyFC]

Everton have no chance of top 4, even when all around them are faltering.

It’s a shame because I quite like them as a club and they are a historical ‘big club’, but they’re nowhere near good enough.

[huw.Y.WattfromWare]

By Scott Parker?

[Steve1956]

Well they're better than us.

is that all you've got?

[chekhov]

Read the thread stop cherry picking

Ugh?

[Buxtonclaret]

Heck.
They've actually scored!

[IanMcL]

1 eff's just scored!!!!!

[tiger76]

Bullocks! 1-0 Fulham, terrible defending by Everton again.

[Vegas Claret]

******* Everton

[DomBFC1882]

Come on Everton ffs

[Steve1956]

Top 4 Everton

[NickBFC]

Typical.

[chekhov]

Lovely goal by Fulham. Well deserved!

[FCBurnley]

Are Everton seriously trying. Nobody inc the manager seems to care

[DomBFC1882]

Are Everton seriously trying. Nobody inc the manager seems to care

Seems that way. Crazy really considering Evertons league position and potential top 4 place

[Taffy on the wing]

Fulham playing very well.
Lookman is a tremendous player, one of the big sides will be in for him soon.

[tally]

maybe us?
