[UncleMikeNJ]

"Son, drinking and drugs are bad for you."

"But, Dad, Paul Merson!"

[meatfeastrock]

good goal, good goal, goaly goal goal.

[TheWoozybear]

I remember this game, apart from a 90th minute wonder goal David James won us this one with a bloody face and saves up the ass

[kizzyfur]

I think your all being a bit childish, with the your good but were great thing.

what a great goal from Merson, I remember nearly wetting myself when this went in totally out of the blue.

[MrC283245433]

[L2Villan]

[whatryewatchin]

legend



[SBOWsteffan]

take a bow merse what a goal questionable goal keeping from Paul Gerrard

[thedoc241000]

Villa The Creators of League Football 1888

Villa themost successful club of the nineteenth century

Villa the most successful club for three-quarters of the twentieth century

Villa Former Champions of Europe.

Villa currently the fourth most successful club...

Everton are a grand old historic club, but they are not a TRULY GREAT club like Villa. Villa gave the world this great game AND have won the game's greatest prizes. Aston Villa's history and influence in the game is unrivalled.

[astonv07]

Merson was quality. Would love him in his prime for Villa now.

[peewee1403]

SOLID CREW

[xXefcTOM1878Xx]

everton fc are de best i am a season ticket holder !!!!!COYB

[witchypoo797]

i agree with you rcmack Id think there is a few players everton have got, that we want to watch out for, moyes seems to know his stuff

[witchypoo797]

villa are good everton are great

[RCmack]

Nice 3-1 win by Everton over Aston Villa in FA Cup.

Tim Cahill's a great player. And watch out for Victor Anichebe. He is powerful with the ball and tough to contain. Everton needs to hang on to him.

[kelvinreginald]

Villa,only with Man Utd,Liverpool and Nott Forest won the European cup but not Everton.

[FCAstonVilla]

Villa CREATED the world's first league and invited Everton along...Villa currently 21 trophies Everton's 15...Villa former Champions of Europe...

Everton are VERY GOOD

Aston Villa are GREAT.

A subtle difference.

[scouseste100]

UR last fa cup was in 1957 ares was 1995 we have won 3 since 1957. use have won 1 league in a 100 years are last league was 1987 we have have won many trophys when the english divisions were much tougher and had more teams in the division use won most of your trophys in the 18th century when there was like 16 teams in the division we got robbed of euro football when we had argubly the 1 of the greatest sides england has ever seen

aston villa 18TH CENTURY GOOD

EVERTON 19TH CENTURYAMAZING

[onetruebanners]

i think you might have got your centuries muddled up. 1900-1999 is the 20th century not the 19th century.

[FingerElevenRULEZ]

Agreed

Villa Till I Die!!

[LowerGwladys]

Oh, is that why Villa have been to the 3rd division.. unlike everton. and Relegated in the last 25 years. Unlike everton.

[dubtoffee]

wrong buddy everton are 4th and villa are 5th, google Football records in England - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, you need to know your history!

[partyboyedd]

What a legend

[dubtoffee]

Everton+Villa(most played game in top flight)

Everton+Villa(2 of the founder members of the football league)

Everton+Villa(2 of the oldest clubs)

Everton+Villa(never relegated from premier league

Everton+Villa(4th and 5th most successful team in england)

Now, Pats your lot.

[JustRichClark86]

villa are 4th most sucessful...duno if you meant 4th or 5th as the 4th came first and so did everton i assumed you meant everton were 4th...but just wanted to clarify :)

[nosebuzz007]

@dubtoffee everton vs villa,, most boring teams on the planet

[CondeYNWA]

pity he is now a fat smackhead

[DieRomantic2008]

Merson was a great player for Villa fantastic goal

[bcolborn]

Stunning goal!!

[zedkay07]

did merson ince gazza and mcmanaman play in same era? if yes, that midfield, with shearer/ fowler/ wright/ sheringham/ cole/ ferdinand playin in front of them never did owt 4 england beggars belief

[onewildcarl82]

Absolutely outstanding goal

[bigdunk9]

Good Vision But Gerrard was ONE SHIT KEEPER. Everton-Villa the most played fixture in top flight football , now thats proper history.

[dreamcastII]

who was in goal for Everton ? Was it Richard Wright ? No probably Gerrad. Everton were on a role in this season and were a hard team to beat at Gooderson. Villa did well to win there that day.

Shame the FA cup final was poor and they had a guilt edged chance to equilise muffeled.

Everton - Villa games can be quite good - going back to 1977 and all that.

[goldenvision63]

As an Everton fan i would not say we were on a roll in fact we were shite that season and most teams did us at Goodison and away for that matter, good stat by bigdunk9 with out the likes of Everton and Aston Villa football would not exsist on the scale it does now in this country, two massive clubs with great histories.

[villaman69]

Merson, QUALITY
