It doesnt seem right, not having the holders in the tournament. If Liverpool win it (very unlikely :p:

) it would be so unfair if they were'nt even in the tournament next season!

We are gonna win it goddammit! :biggrin:

I suppose we could cope without the Champions League for a seaon, we'll just have to concentrate on the League! But if we don't get it, Stevie will be off :frown:

. And we won't be able to attract as good players just being in the UEFA cup. Oh, and the whole money thing too.

No peep from the mags and smoggies about the only team in the North East to win something this season?

Heh, well done to the Sunderland, will be nice to take 6 points from them next year! :biggrin:

apparently there is some money kicking around somewhere...

That's what was said about Everton over Christmas time. It certainly wasn't in the christmas spirit to get our hopes up about a £30m takeover.. :frown:

Hopefully, due to this great season, potential investors will start crawling out of the woodwork.. It comes to something when Everton can be outbid by clubs like Birmingham, can;t afford to pay the wages of Bolton, and have players choose teams like Fulham over us (thankfully this part should be history now :smile:

)

Edit: I don't think Sunderland will go straight back down. If Wigan come up they'll be straight back down, and so will the team from the bottom 4 in the prem that doesn't go down this year.. Sunderland will hopefully establish themselves as a quality Premier League team in years to come :smile:

Well hopefully! Back where they belong contrary to the belief of people like the mags :smile:

I've got much more faith in McCarthy than I had in Reid, Reid was ok but could only take the team so far (then it all went to pot), McCarthy seems to be able to pull good young players out of the bag and we're also playing really good football now. I reckon a lot depends on our goalscorers. If you haven't got people to score a few you're not going to stay in the prem. Elliott looks like a great prospect, great goal tonight and been excellent all season, and he's improving. I shall have to actually get off my arse and go to a few matches now, glory hunter that I am :smile:

Haha - it's difficult to get to matches for myself, as i'm working every single Saturday and when I do get the chance either my Evertonian mates are in work or theres nobody else to go with! - i've promised myself that i'll go to one of the European away games next season though.. being in Europe and all.. :wink:

I think Mick has done a good job for Sunderland, he's a good manager and it seems like the players are all working hard for him - just need to bring in a few decent players, even if it means picking them up from Division One so be it; look what we got in Tim Cahill! :cool:

Plus it doesn't take much to be better than teams such as Pompey, Southampton etc..

Just out of interest, how's Chris Brown doing? Thought he was a great striker when you lot loaned him to Donny Rovers last season and I heard he was getting a few first team appearances this season. In fact, we could do with another striker... :wink:

Pretty good, he's been starting matches lately and putting in a lot of work up front.
