I reckon he's watching this right now, just sat there in his cardigan and a pair of old Everton slippers, guzzling a chang, smoking a lambert & butler blue, muttering under his breath "...fucking Moshiri, fucker, I''l show ya, ya wee shite..."
Odds on he'll go after Baxter, Mirallas, Jagielka, and Baines, come January?
Nah, some great days and nights there, some quality moments. Not going to start on him, could have been anybody, could have been better, could have been worse. Funny old game indeed.

Love that Cahill goal against Newcastle, what a moment that was.
think my favourite Cahill goal was the other head kick against Chelsea, (if i recall correctly) ball was blasted across and he some how managed to over head kick it in..was in the last few minutes..

Still to this day can't believe we didn't win the Europa League the season we went out to Fiorentina, talk about name on the trophy.
Especially given we'd already beaten eventual winners Zenit in the group stage and would have fancied us to beat PSV in the next round and put Rangers away without a second leg needed

Two of the best headed goals I ever saw scored by Gray, although strangely I have no recollection of either of their disallowed goals. I think 4 - 3 would have been a fairer score having seen them again.

More than anything, they played for each other, which at the time we just took for granted, only to realise later that it's anything but.

I was watching that game with a Tottenham fan and said to him well played just before Pienaar scored and then said fair result a draw and then had to say unlucky when Jelavic scored. He was not happy and to be honest, even though he is a mate, I could not help but laugh at him when the final whistle went.

Nice memories of the Moyes era and some great wins, but no trophies in more than a decade in the job and the 'knife to a gunfight' mentality tarnish it for me. Nice memories is all it is. We need a winner.
A decade where he had to consistently sell his/our best players, the years we could have 'kicked on' we needed to invest but we didnt. when we did invest all the players that would have made a difference where already bought, i'm sure most them seasons we needed to invest, we where waiting on loans before investing... blaming Moyes for not winning trophies during his tenure is short sighted i feel, his hands where pretty much tied when he was here.

Moyes did a great job of saving us from relegation and turned us into top 8 regulars, but I think that's as far as he could take us. Pochettino is doing a similar job at Spurs now, with similar financial constraints (albeit on a grander scale because of the finances of the league now) and has Spurs regularly in the top four and challenging. I'm not for a minute suggesting that's what Moyes should have had us doing but his mentality was all wrong in terms of taking the next step. We were always "knife to a gun fight" when we ourselves had quality players. With Arteta, Fellaini, Pienaar, Baines, Cahill etc, we could have done more with the right mentality. I think that best of the rest mentality lives on at the club to this day.

you are saying spurs had the same financial constraints as us? fuck me, yeah Moyes has his limitations, but to say spurs were on a similar financial footing as us is a ridiculous statement as i have ever heard.
I wish this constant sniping at him would end, he has gone, we have moved on, sadly not forward or upward. but give it a rest ffs.

I said Pochettino is working with similar constraints, relative to the market at the time, in terms of transfer fees and wages. Spurs are probably not in the top 10 spenders in terms of net spend over the last four or five years and we weren't under Moyes when we were signing the likes of Fellaini for £15m. I'm not "sniping" at Moyes as I clearly said he did a good job initially, but we were never going to take that next step with him telling our players they were knives in a gun fight. Quick to jump on me. Should we all accept 7th or 8th is the best we'll ever do?

Post by: Shropshire Blue on May 14, 2018, 08:37:48 AM
It’s hard to describe just how big an occasion it was then. It was 33 years since we were last in the final so the first time in my lifetime. Wembley was just a dream for most fans, many never ever went there let alone with their own team. Cup finals were major national events riddled with tradition, the Queen usually went but this time it was Princess Margaret. Papers were full of it for over a week before the game.
We lived in Macclesfield and my Dad got two tickets somehow but not together. In those days touts made fortunes selling tickets from back street hideaways in the weeks before and that always made the papers. My preparations started over a week before making decorations for the car. If it was blue, white and silver and could be made into something then it got nicked! Posters, ribbons, rosettes, scarves – something for every window and external bit of car that could take string or sellotape. I spent two hours the night before attaching it all, my pride and joy being a large silver replica of the cup for the back window.
It was an early start on the Saturday (5 or 6am?) because it was a long trip. The M6 only went as far as Staffordshire so after that it was the A5 all the way. The early hours and loads of cars in a steady stream all, it seemed, full of Evertonians and that was before we cleared Staffordshire. Every place we passed where people could rest or stop for a drink was full of scousers.
Then Wembley. It looked magnificent with the twin towers, the steps and Wembley Way. It was magic – I’d never even been to London before. We parked on the main car park and my mum who hadn’t got a ticket stayed with the car and when Princess Margaret arrived she drove right past her as she stood on her own and she got her own personal wave.
Around the stadium the atmosphere was electric, people asking for tickets, trying to climb into the ground via the windows on the stair wells and everyone wearing plastic blue and white hats that had obviously been given out free somewhere. And the noise – I’d never been in a crowd like that.
Can’t remember much about getting in but once in I had a seat, it was a long continuous wooden bench with the number painted on it between two lines - the width of the seat. Abide with Me was totally respected and sung by everyone with a military band playing it and the national anthem on the pitch. Memories of the game are sketchy but I was in the corner by that second tunnel where they brought equipment in and out so was quite close when Alex Young ‘scored’ the equaliser only for it to be given offside. I remember feeling totally empty when they got their second and it seemed all over. Our goals were scored at the other end, got excited when Trebilcock scored the first but it still seemed a long way back. Then the second went in and the noise was deafening. Eddie ran on the pitch and there seemed total mayhem. From then on it was incessant chanting and then Derek Temple got the ball off Gerry Young and I can see him running away from me towards the goal, it was like slow motion and lasted for ages and then the ball hit the net. I can’t remember even getting up but I was suddenly aware of being stood on the seat just screaming- don’t even know what. From then to the end it was just noise louder than anything I’d heard before and then it was over. Brian Labone a distant figure holding the cup up, the chant, over and over again, of ‘We’ve won the cup, we’ve won the cup, ee aye addio we’ve won the cup’.
It’s still the best moment of watching football I’ve ever had and nothing will come close to it again. Next day I read and re-read every thing I could find about the game. I couldn’t get to Liverpool to see them come home but there was a 30 minute programme on the TV about it, a quarter of a million estimated to have lined the streets, but all in black and white then.
It’s been a lousy season this time around but it’s moments like that that remind me why I still go. I still want more of it.

Still kills me that we robbed of opportunity to go into the European cup

In the sanitisation of Heysel by the media and the general arse licking that surrounds Liverpool - it is deliberately forgotten that we were denied the chance to win the proper European cup. The team of the 85/86 season, with the spearhead of Lineker and Sharp and the best goalie in the world at that time in Big New, would have in my opinion won that year.
It was the beginning of the end of that glorious team as I doubt Mr Kendall would have left to ply his trade at Bilboa. All conjecture now but that night along with the semi against Bayern are still my best memories as an Evertonian.

No doubt about it, we were the best team in Europe at the time, the ban cost us more than most.

Don't remind Watford about this, they have already thrown a couple of dummies out of the pram this week.

https://twitter.com/EvertonMusings/status/999168046387392512AH yes the rearranged derby. Seem to remember John Wark shanking a penalty for them and almost hitting the corner flag.

The only survivors of that day are Coleman ,Jagielka and Baines .....and Mirallas if he still counts.
But how good was that Moyes team ?
