Overreaction? I think not. 21:18 - Jul 13 with 7758 viewsMyFinalHeaven

I don't know if you lads remember, but around the same time last year in July we lost to a Mickey Mouse team in the US by the name of Richmond Kickers. At the time they were a semi-professional American division III side.



Just like with the loss to Barnet this week, people here were saying that it was just preseason, that we shouldn't be overreacting, and that everything is going to be fine. Low and behold, just a few months later, our manager gets sacked, and we end up at the very bottom of the league with seemingly no light at the end of the tunnel.

Preseason or not, there is NO REASON, I repeat, no reason why we should be losing to a team that finished in the bottom half of fvcking League Two. We're a Premier League club for Christ's sake. There is no excuse for this, and it's clear that a lot of work needs to be done, upgrades need to be made, and a lot of deadwood needs to be shipped out.

I can't help but think this loss may have factored into Sigurdsson's decision to stay home and reconsider his future. Why stay at a club owned by greedy fvcks with zero ambition and one that just lost to a League Two side, especially when the most steadily rising club in the Premier League is after you, one that is in the top 7 and will remain there, will play in Europe next season, and who has a new billionaire owner that has backed up his desire to be in the Champions League with both his actions and his wallet? Ever since he took over last year Farhad Moshiri has been one of the most ambitious owners in the UK, and Everton's expenditures prove that.

"Did we sub close to the entire team at half time?"

Yes but the problem is that Barnet did exactly the same. That makes it more worrying.


You don't even know what the final make up of the squad will be before the season starts, and you are already worried, after a kick about at Barnet, at least wait till the pre season ends, before you relegate us

You give it out, you take it back it`s all part of the game

Yet we smashed(as you put it) Wolves last season, did you think we were in for a great season?

There's always a few people who over react to meanginless preseason results.

It's the equivalent of watching a training session and predicting doom based on what you see.


I disagree. The OP is spot on... this was a must win match and Clement confirmed the same with a starting eleven that's nailed on for Southampton away

I think the 135 grand a week and the massive signing on fee would have had slightly more bearing than a loss in a meaningless friendly.


Am I being stupid by saying as he is in contract with us he doesn't get a signing on fee

Players only get signing on fees when they are out of contract,don't they?

Mods - can we have a Siggy only board until all this blows over. The contagion is spreading like wildfire and is more stubborn than trying to get T2C to admit he's wrong.

Don't think so the buying club can give a player what they want in contract or not.

Because it's an over reaction and a massive one at that.
A meltdown because we lost a pointless friendly & selling a player for near on 50 million quid is nuts.
Same people were shagging off the likes of Carrol Ollson and Ayew before they had kicked a ball.
Gets on my tits.


Who wuz shagging?

Good luck, Mr Cooper

I heard something about this guy Morgan who along with Lorente and Siggy triple teamed the wife of a poster on here. Which would explain the otherwise irrational hatred for these players

Do you remember when we embarked on our "record breaking season" of 2014/15 Villarreal played us off the park on the very eve of the season. 7 days later we beat Man U 2-1 at the Theatre of Ffacin Dreams. That friendly clearly meant the square route of ffac all, the opening friendly of the season means even less. If Barnet had any bearing on his decision the man clearly has mental health issues. Not that I'm saying that it is and that he has.

29 points from 19 games 2nd half of the season.
13 from the last 5 games these over reactions always make me laugh.
As does crap like we are a club on the decline 7th season in the PL and the doom merchants are off already.


Well.........yeah but.
This stat keeps getting repeated,I think it's dangerous to keep relying on it.
I watched most games last season and we were really poor most of the time.
We only started picking points up when teams had nothing to play for,luckily there were some weak teams in the Prem last season,I suppose we have to rely on that again.

You're comparing us losing to a bottom half league two side to us losing against a Villarreal side that finished 6th in La Liga two consecutive years in a row? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
