I am not very good at golf, but each round I make one or two decent shots that gives me the encouragement to come back and play again. The same is true of a season spent following Everton. There have been some very low bad times in this topsy turvey season; I still shudder at the thought of the Reading FA Cup match.
However, today was the game that will bring me back for more next season. The Manchester City billionaires came to play and in the first half they looked like a high class team; they went into half time one goal up. The second half witnesses an invigorated Everton pull City apart. The atmosphere in the ground was fantastic and under this kind of pressure City soon crumbled. As the Everton manager said afterwards: you can buy a team but you can't buy team spirit.
