Everton Vs Blades

[geekblade]

I've seen some very good odds for an away win or draw. Worth a punt?

 

[Jim Chimmerney]

7/1 doesn't seem to represent our chance tonight and certainly tempting but a game to leave alone for betting purposes I reckon as are most Carling Cup games at this stage.

Everton need one more goal to have 200 vs Blades
Blades are into 2nd round of League cup for first time in 3 seasons.
Last time Blades won vs Prem opposition in this compo was 9 years ago vs Sunlan.
Head to head has Everton 52 wins and Blades 47 wins out of 130 in all comps.

I'm with Micadilly on this one I think we will get thumped but not the 5-0 he suggested elsewhere.
Been playing shit teams in div 3 that cock up chances and we have let the oppo have plenty of chances to date.
They will have too much pace and quality for us I believe.

Looking forward to seeing Blades at Huish Park, though - new ground for all of us.

Summary - don't blame me, geekers, if you decide not to bet and we achieve a cup upset.

To be fair though, we have only played prem opposition 3 times since

2002-03 Liverpool (L2-3 on aggregate)
2007-08 Arsenal (L0-3)
2008-09 Arsenal (L0-6)

Ssshhhh Darren - don't spoil a good stat.

Besides I would have to quibble with the term "Prem Team" in 08-09 - we got spanked by their youf.

Their youth embarrassed us good style and Kenny had a nightmare.
