very scrappy first half an hour where the only higlights were three bookings for the red shite, welsh,finnan, cavanagh. the only blue shirt who could hold there head up were shcumacher and mcfadden( who was involved in everything positive). li tie for the first 20 mins picked up were he left off in in the arsenal match( which was rank). the number of times free kicks were wasted was unreal, even 30 yards from goal gemmill was intent on passing it sideways and each time pong hole nicked it and sprinted into our half. as for pistone (or should i say perry como) does he now the meaning of the word urgent, anymore laid back and he'd be asleep. before half time otsemobor was also shown the yellow card.

the second half saw us only really compete in the first 5 mins. after that la tallec and pong hole were running riot.
mcfadden becoming more and more frustrated and was permanently in the refs ear , this just resulted in him getting no decisions at all. ( i realise it is le tallec but with la being the female french verb for the and with the knobhead having a head like annie lennox i thought that la was more appropriate).

with about 15 mins to go a poor clearance by wynn fell straight to welch who from 25 yards caught it sweet and it flew past simonsen. after this the red shite were attacking at will, with pong hole and la tallec giving the defence a torrid time, this resulted in peter clarke going right through the back of him wich brought blues only yellow card of the night. with 5 mins to go la tallec from pretty much the exact position as the first goal walloped it past simonsen again. (maybe its his blind spot).

on the second half show no blues could hold there heads up, li tie was slighly better, but with his first half show being so poor that is hardly a recommendation. gemmill and especially alexanderson may as well not have been on the pitch.

Everton were beaten 2-0 at Haig Avenue by the Shite, last night in wet and windy conditions on the coast. On the plus side Sex God 'Sandro Pistone came through 90 unscathed minutes, in an often scrappy affair. Everton's best chances fell to fell to Pistone and fellow first teamer Jimmy Mac. The game was hardly a classic and the shite's goals were scored by two players who smelt of shite. A player who sounds like shite, Pong something or other, was booked, and I can't believe a Shite player would do this, but it was for diving. Moyesy was on hand, and will have been impressed with the performances of Faddy and Li Tie. (14/01/04)
