Stevenage 0 Everton 4 (Super Nais 2, Heitinga, Gueye)

For the second time this season Everton face Stevenage on Saturday, this time in the FA Cup 4th Round in the 5:30 kick off.

Roberto Martinez thought the ground was a bit bumpy on Monday? This is going to be a shitty shit of a pitch. We'll need our best hoofballers, and lucky all of our competent players are injured. Stevenage will be rolling out the red carpet for some of the best players the Premier League has to offer and Steven Naismith.

4-0 to the blues. Hibbert with a hat trick, and Naismith.

We need the heavy roller, a couple of Massey Ferguson drivers. At least I think that's what MF meant.

At this rate one of the YT boys will have to polish up big Duncs boots and Bobbie might have to start in central midfield!

0-0, we'll play for the draw

5-0 to the blues, Kone's not playing as he's injured so someone else will score instead.  Feeling VERY positive about this game !  

0-5 Lukaku hatrick,  two fingers to all the negative minded people   

"STEVENAGE ARE FAVOURITES" SAYS THE BLUE CHOSEN ONE.
The Toffees are currently sixth in the Barclays Premier League, chasing a top-four spot, and Boro are bottom of Sky Bet League One.
But while that disparity might suggest this weekend's will be a relatively straightforward assignment for Everton, Martinez feels respective league positions count for little at this stage of a knockout competition and that "the home team is always the favourite".
The Spaniard, winner of the FA Cup last term as manager of Wigan, said: "We are all well aware of the sort of thing we are going to find at the weekend and we have to be prepared for that.
"We are going to try to be as good as we can and make sure we don't let the home side have the advantage they will otherwise have.
"I think in these rounds people forget that the divisional status counts for very little, and it is about how you adapt on the day to the conditions, surroundings and environment.
"The home team is always the favourite in these rounds, so we need to make sure we are ready to face a very difficult game."

Look whose crawling back to our football screens tomorrow evening!

CONTROVERSIAL FORMER SKY Sports analyst and ex-Everton and Aston Villa star Andy Gray is set to join up with BT Sport, it has been confirmed.
Gray was widely praised for his punditry with Sky Sports throughout the 90s and 00s, before losing his job with the station three years ago today after making sexist comments about Premier League official Sian Massey.
Gray’s colleague, Richard Keys, was also sacked for similar ill-judged remarks about Massey at the time.
It is understood that the 58-year-old will be co-commentator for the channel’s coverage of the evening FA Cup game between Stevenage and Everton.
Among those reacting to the news was BT Sport presenter, Des Kelly, who tweeted: “Welcome to Andy Gray, who joins the @btsport team on co-commentary duties. Starting tomorrow.”

Unfortunately I have to leave for work at 17:30 hrs so I don't get to watch the match today

I've got to go out at quarter to seven, so I'm hoping we'll be six up by then.

Going round to friends house for dinner and wine tasting! They won the wine-tasting in a charity auction so have invited a few of us round. I fucking hate wine. Sorry, I know I'm a slob, but I would prefer a Guinness Tasting. Still, should be a laugh, they're from New York and they know how to throw a party..... loads of food, loads of booze, very noisy   

It is pissing down in Stevenage. Upset on the cards.

No Coleman, Lakuka, Distin today. All injured.........

Stevenage stadium is tiny.

My sympathy for you just got up and fucked off out the door   
I'm off to drive round Preston dealing with drunken chavs who think they could take on the army. If i'm really lucky, something will happen in Blackpool, Burnley or Skelmersdale (please god no!) and i'll get to go there instead

Could I just say, on behalf of the whole board, that we really appreciate your hard work on behalf of the taxpayer. Now sod off to work while the rest of us crack open a couple of beers and sit back for the night

Shouldn't feel sorry for Hairy. He doesn't, I believe, go 'out to work'.
