Everton 2 Fulham 1

Now that's more like it!

There's nothing quite like Fulham at home to lift Everton out of the doldrums, and thankfully the two teams stuck to the script Friday night under the Goodison lights. The victory propelled Everton into the fifth round of the FA Cup, the draw for which will be held on Sunday evening. With Manchester City and either Manchester United or Liverpool already exiting the competition, hopes are high for a sustained cup run for the Blues. A celebratory match report is after the jump...

Everton v Fulham: Live FA Cup GameThread

Cross your fingers that Dempsey doesn't score another hat trick. Cross your fingers that we can actually score more than one goal.

Our home form is woeful, and Fulham's away form is woeful. Something has to give and I'm not really sure what (It's going to be us). Let's just hope the match is at least entertaining and not completely lacking in firepower.

As always, comment below.

Everton vs. Fulham: Match Preview

Everton have a home tie against Fulham in the Fourth Round of the FA Cup in a rare Friday fixture. While the match is being billed here in the USA as Landon Donovan vs. Clint Dempsey, it could be overshadowed by an in-ground protest being planned by the Blue Union who have been very vocal (and it must be said, unruly too) in their protests against chairman Bill Kenwright.

It's not like Toffees manager David Moyes doesn't have much on his plate as it is. The team has swung between woeful and mediocre in the past few weeks, and while injuries can be blamed to a certain extent, a lot of it has to do with the apparent lack of talent and cohesion within the squad. More after the jump.

I'll have a Home Question please!

Landon your own two feet!


In the finest traditions of A Question of Sport (for those that are unfamiliar it's a novelty Sports Quiz on BBC) the contestants on one particular round are asked a question either on their own sport ("Home") or a random one ("Away"). Home Questions - worth one point - are supposed to be easier... name the last time Everton beat anyone by two goals* - whereas Away Questions ("when did Everton last play well?") are much harder & are worth two points.

Now I've not gone off topic quite yet. We are facing a rather critical three month period for the remainder of the season & the next few weeks are littered with challenges on the Home Front. Not only are we seemingly shrinking on the playing staff front - the departure of Billy seems inevitable & the arrival of anyone with the prospect of heading Leighton Baines as top scorer (so far) a critical requirement that may or may not be met - but a number of upcoming games will be at Goodison

The fee from Spartak Moscow seems to be around £5 million pounds and the deal is pending a medical. This isn't that bad considering he was a complete flop and we bought him for around £9 million.
