God you're boring.

First half started well but went pretty quiet - the game was very dull though, absolutely nothing to excite the crowd. Second half was great - the game woke up and so did the crowd.

As for the Everton fans, imo pretty much the worst away fans at the Amex for noise considering numbers. Thought the same last season, too. One chant of 'Everton' sung 5/6 times over the 90 mins. Shyte

Hang on I think we need to call Spence out on this one.

Spence, did you actually go today or watch a stream? By your own admission you don't go to many games.

I see you have posted on another thread MOTD since I posted this Spence.

You didn't go did you?

We know that. Some of us sussed you ages ago.

Keep on criticising. Even Das was allowed into a couple of games.

Agreed, although in the train queue all seemed decent football fans. Nothing condescending and actually seemed more annoyed by their own team performance rather than anything else

I know it's a bit naff to come on here and give the opposition fans a pat on the back, but both before and after the game speaking to Everton fans on the train, they just sounded like genuine, knowledgeable, less 'up their own arses' fans that we sometimes get down here from the bigger clubs......but their in-ground support was DREADFUL for the numbers they had.

Criticising the support when you were not even there - amazing.

So do you wait till half time ? The dicks around me seem more interested in the beer than the game leaving on 38 mins and getting back on 50 mins.

No not at all what i mean is the atmosphere seems livelier in the second half after everyone had a top up pint . If poeple decide to beat the crowd early on 38 mins or whatever thats there problem if they miss out on the action .

Flat at points, buzzing at others.

Best and worst of the north stand in one game IMO.

Why is it always us that gets focused on? If the rest of the stadium even pulled 50% of their weight, we'd always have a noisy stadium.

Still, it didn't help that Everton have the worst set of fans I've ever witnessed. Home and away they've been an embarrassment this season, they really have.

As it was away too. What is the point in being an Everton fan?

Do they have ANY songs for any of their players?? Didn't hear any last season or this. Surprises me that they're so bad though what with the size of the club etc. Especially away from home where you usually have a large chunk who sing constantly no matter what's going on on the pitch, as we and many other sets of fans do away .

However as a few others have said, I agree that they do seem decent, genuine fans overall.

Seen a couple of posts suggesting that the first half was a bit dull. Not for me. I loved the whole game, thought we played well and Everton had me worried when they attacked at pace moving the ball quickly and accurately. I thought the atmosphere was very good at times in what to me was an interesting and enjoyable game. Richarlison, although a diver looked a very dangerous player to me and his weaving in the box had my heart in my mouth.

We looked Premier League and have improved massively as a team to watch in the last month or so.

I may have been guilty of that. I guess I mean that after a bright start, as the half wore on we cancelled each other out a bit and both struggled to get shots away. All changed second half though!

Spot on. If you couldn't enjoy the game yesterday you're never going to enjoy football!

Even when the atmosphere was a bit quieter it was because people were on edge rather than bored.

Yerry Mina has many songs
One of them re a vacuum cleaner is deemed to be racist by some plonkers out there

Very flat all over the shop yesterday.

Away fans were silent, and there were periods where the whole stadium was morguelike.

One or two noisy spells, otherwise not one of the liveliest.

Bozza · Dec 30, 2018

Richarlison-Dead-(oh no he's not)-Gate was the catalyst in waking the crowd up, I thought, as well as giving the game some needle. It seemed to work for us as we were by far the better team immediately following that.
