If anyone ever asks you why you bother shelling out so much money to go and see some men kick a ball about at a rugged old stadium during the dark winter months, you show them the last 12 minutes of that game.
And more importantly, if anyone ever asks why in the world you put up with Everton ruining weekend after weekend – every year – and throw you off a cliff just when you’re riding high on optimism, well, you show them the last 12 minutes of that game.
After the 60th minute, Goodison was just that, after so long. It was absolutely raucous, and most definitely deserved that fightback. We deserve more than what we’ve got this season, there’s no doubt about that, and hopefully this game will be a key point moving forward as we too move forward, and hopefully upwards to back where we should be.
