So our fans boo Eboue after years of terrible performances and the press never let us hear the end of it, but the Everton fans boo Fellaini - one of the their best ever players - after one defeat, and nobody even bats an eyelid.

TBH ITV decided they were booing Fellaini but I know a lot of Everton fans are getting pissed off with Moyes (his contract negotiations aren't going too swiftly) and I got the impression they were booing Moyes for taking Fellaini off rather than booing the player.

Fellani's attitude was an absolute disgrace - he allowed an opposition player to walk by him with the ball as he opted to bollock a team-mate rather than work to get it back :x It's that old thing that players are expected to give 100% regardless of how good or shit they are and regardless of how they are playing and fellani fell well short. His attitude also stank the place out as he stormed down the tunnel rather than stay and support his team-mates......watch him use today's reaction as the excuse to leave them in the summer :roll:

Tbf that doesn't stand up when you hear the cheer they gave Gibson (the proverbial carthorse midfielder) when he came on to replace fellani

Its a bit odd I grant you, unless they were making their feelings known regarding the substitution but didn't want to boo the lad coming on in case it affected him and made him play as shit as the rest! You might well be right tbh, just can't understand why any fans would boo their best player who has had a cracking season after one mediocre performance!

And I wonder if we'll still be hearing about the booing of Fellaini in 4 years time !! The booing of Eboue was nowhere near on the scale I just heard at Goodison.....a few groans aimed at a bloke who'd been consistently ***** and a diving cheat or widespread booing for a bloke who has been Everton's best attacking player since the day they signed him

Still.....its only us that moan.......worst fans in the world apparently !

I know that we have two quality players for every position but you can't seriously expect us to compete with the financial muscle of teams like Wigan, Blackburn or Bradford can you ? :oops: :oops: :oops: :cry: :cry:

Yep it would have been a real pisser to have to play Millwall for a place at Wembley and potentially Wigan for a second day there in May eh?

Still who cares what fans want? There's only 2.5m on stake for winning the FA Cup so the wig wearing dick and his willing 7m per annum sell-out apprentice, wouldn't want such horrible distractions such as winning something in front of 90,000 fans to get in the way of the mouthwatering prospect of a dead rubber against Olympiakos in December.

Blackburn at home....the one cup we can win......I know I'll play Gervinho and Giroud......only a Coach of the Decade could come up with such genius. A few days later the gamble really paid off against a Munich side that should have been 4-0 up at half time

Welcome to the money making, fan abusing, soulless world of Kroenke Real Estate Inc 2013.

.....and Wigan going through to the semi final increases the chances of our game against them being moved. Something to bear in mind for the Irish gooners especially.

Amusing to hear the Millwall fans chanting, "Bentley, Bentley you're a *word censored*, Bentley, you're a *word censored*"!
