Yep, it’s Slacker Sunday, Everton vs Newcastle, Dumb vs Dumber, as two of the Premier League’s biggest disappointments come head to head. Everton have had a woeful summer and an egregious season so far, getting dumped out of the UEFA and Carling Cup at the first hurdle and being comfortably beaten by their neighbours Liverpool. And Newcastle have been a train crash ever since Kevin Keegan’s second coming…
Today sees the two sides of the same slacker coin meet up, and with Everton being truly dire at home this season and coming off the back of three losses in a row and Newcastle being given a “Crazy Gang” makeover by Joe Kinnear, it is not so much the immovable object meeting the unstoppable force as the wet sponge meeting the damp squib.
So what are your predictions, win – lose – or draw, for this Slacker Sunday match-up?
