It was my “maiden” gathering, at the SODs Irish Pub along Tras Street, with the Singapore Evertonians Supporter Group. The feeling and atmosphere was AMAZING!! It just felt like being at Goodison Park itself. =D We all felt like old friends even when most of us only met the very first time. Such was the “brotherhood” of the Everton supporters! There were practically no strangers once u were inside the pub, wearing the blue (some white, some gold :p) top.

Nothing much could be said about the match though. The boys in blue played their hearts out in the full 90mins. But the only difference was the man in black. Matt Cullenburg, you will definitely pay for your mistakes!!!!! The Referee’s committee should fine and demote him to the lower divisions! I bet our S-league refs could’ve done a much better job on saturday. The supporters’ hearts broke in the dying seconds of the match, deep into injury time. But I must say Phil Neville made a spectacular safe. Haha!! Maybe Steve McClaren could consider putting him in goal, instead of the new Paul “butter-fingers” Robinson. =P Still, it was a bitter pill to swallow. It doesn’t matter if we’ve lost the game to a good opponent. But to lost the derby in such a fashion, was definitely unacceptable! My hope is that we go to Anfield in the return match and give Liverpool a thrashing! Its a hope for now, but I am sure it could be a reality.
