Everton v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

maybe selective quoting?  You could look back over our threads and find lots of references to "whiny scousers", "2nd best club in Liverpool", "have to live in Liverpool", "quiet fans" etc.

Yes but generally you won't have too much ill written or said about Everton or their fans due to us being similar sized clubs. they, however, seem to really dislike us. Liverpool fans seem to respect and like us more and yet we hold them in higher contempt.

[adrenachrome]

From them:

"...let’s put our hands together to welcome our illustrious opponents from down the M6 – Aston Villa – as they come to play the latest instalment of the most played English top flight game of all time. The bit there where I said “illustrious” what I really meant was “plaque covered teeth sloth speaking try too hard mega scruffs”. Just in case there was any lingering confusion.

For a club with so much wonderful history and success they are unfortunately burdened with their fans. It’s like meeting a boss bird, an easy nine out of ten, but she’s got prominent arse grapes hanging out of the back. They're just there and you constantly know it.

These crushingly dull bum berries of Birmingham could choose to watch the game and enjoy the experience of following their sound club but instead are covered absolutely filthy rotten from head to toe with cringe worthy behaviour. Or as the whoppers on social media like to call it now: banter.

Let’s get it right: banter is for geordies, Soccer AM fawning texans, deeply insecure but outwardly confident university students trying to hide their middle class upbringing in the student halls and lastly: degenerate gobshites.

This isn't banter that I'm typing now, this is me as an Evertonian, calling you, Villa fans, a maelstrom of dim witted fucktards, and appealing with every last bit of goodwill in my heart to reconsider your approach to following a football club. Sincerely, please just try.

No more of this MY LORD crap, or singing about fire drills when a load of baldy half-arsed-about-the-footie scouse dars go the bog or the bar before half time. No more dressing like meffs or your Farmfood quality tattoos. Absolute no more singing stuff about stuff. Dull stuff. Stop being the rancid anus of humanity, I implore you. We just want to watch the footie and guess what? You might even beat us. Sound that.

But you go back to Birmingham, and most of us get to remain in Liverpool and the various wool areas surrounding it. So ultimately we win. Exclamation mark omitted.

There’s a path for improvement there if you really want it and hopefully you’ll see the constructive criticism in these words is intended to provoke a moment of self realisation, and a subsequent amending of prior unacceptable ways. If you have internet or adult literacy in Birmingham yet anyway. It must crush you that your wools (West Brom, Stoke, Leicester etc) are on the whole far more easier to digest in company than yourselves. Come on now..."

wordy, poor grammar

Unmitigatedly prolix. Or something that sounds like prolix.

 The author clearly has a complex which is quite funny. I respect them as a Club and recall a great atmosphere between the two sets of supporters after the epic last day 3-3 in 1990.   

Wat has to be said is that Everton also have the smallest collection of songs sung by fans ever. They only seem to sing 2 if they sing at all.

[Goldie.7]

Lets hope Osman isn't in the squad, he always seems to have a blinder against us. I can see him and Naismith running things.

[PeterWithesShin]

The hatred Everton have for us is very funny. I've said before, I used Rivals for a while years ago and they genuinely hated us. Which just adds to the enjoyment of us rarely losing up there.

I found asking them "what's it like being the second club in the city as i've no idea how that feels" was a good icebreaker with them. Or ask them where they got their tracksuit bottoms from as Witton Lane hosts its annual "Trackie day" when we play them.

[silhillvilla]

After the scouse derby, this is their Cup Final. All quite humorous really.

[l_mckay]

Take the game to them and can see us getting 3points. Benteke and Nzogbia to score. 2-0

All of those, apart from having to live in Liverpool, are true though. They're not indentured serfs, so they can live elsewhere if they so choose.

Their support is dismal. By the 60th minute tomorrow I will have heard all I can stand of the sheer level of moaning that comes from the Park End. It's a form of torture. They won't sing unless they're winning and even then only fleetingly give you a rendition of their one song. Their away support is equally as turgid. They're also obviously the second biggest team in their city and by a country mile too.

He probably needed a lie down after he had finished that.

[KevinGage]

Funny (well not haha funny)  but most of that can be said about their lot too.

Good club, fine history, shite fans. 

Like us, they travel in big numbers away.  Unlike us, you barely hear a peep out of them.  And when you do, it's that same sad song.  Now that Leeds are gone, easily the most racist fans in the topflight.

He's right about My Lord though. Time to stop it, it's dire.   Was topical and reasonably amusing when McGrath went missing in 1994.  Was mildly amusing circa 2006/7, in a retro way. 

Now, I'd be quite happy for the bobbies to baton charge anyone caught singing it in our end.

Speaking of the Old Bill and batons, I like the throw back pimp canes the senior plod sport up in Liverpool.

Although just for the Everton game, and for that fan in particular, I hope all who attend in the away end sing it from the rooftops the entire game.

Another throw back - whenever I've been to Everton I've noticed that the pavements around Goodison are covered in dog shit.

[frankmosswasmyuncle]

Agree with OzVilla...this guy has clearly got a massive complex about The Villa - perhaps he was a nose or stripeyfilth in a previous existence? Or is just getting in a bit of practice for when he is re-incarnated as one?

I know they have a bit of a downer on us but a good mate is a fan and he seems to have a downer on every team they play...and pretty much everything in life...it's just the scouse way...but it's everybody else's fault! "'The Mighty Reds YNWA' are better than us because they're bastards...Villa are shit because we don't like them...Leeds are crap because they're from Yorkshire"...completely random, nonsensical "logic"!

I hope we hammer the twats!
