[Albion] Everton firsts

[FatSuperman]

First time we've won away from home in an orange kit on a Tuesday night under a Tory government in the top flight during a rail strike with a World Cup winner coming off the bench while Taken was on ITV4.

Seem implausible, I'd like this double-checked please.

 

[Swansman]

Conceding penalties - all converted - in three consecutive away games - yet still winning each of em.

Southampton technically speaking did not convert their penalty

 

[Perry's Tracksuit Bottoms]

From OptaJoe on Twitter: "Evan Ferguson (18y 76d) is the second-youngest player in Premier League history to both score and assist in a match, after Michael Owen in 1997 (17y 364d v Crystal Palace)."

Tremendous, by the way

 

[knocky1]

First team to score the 500th top English league goal against the current Champion GA accumulators Everton.
I think they said that on 5LiveSX

Crimson, officially

blood orange shirley.....!!

 

[dazzer6666]

Surely that's 11 minutes then?

Bot malfunction

First time played 4 or more players aged 21 or under in top flight, according to Times. Last time was in May 2011 in League One.

 

[Blatter]

Brighton 4-0 Man Utd was 49, 57, 60 for the last 3.

Errrm, that's 11 mins..............

 

[fly high]

Not quite a first but first time since 1992 an 18 year old has scored in the top flight in two consecutive matches (according to Radio Sussex)

 

[Greg Bobkin]

First time we've had a (current) world cup winner come off the bench...

Think that's wrong. Think it was macheda for man u in 2009 who funnily enough turned out to be gash.

 

[Nathan]

Conceding penalties - all converted - in three consecutive away games - yet still winning each of em.

The Southampton pen was saved, but the rebound was scored.

On a pedantic note, I was at the match where Owen scored his first for Liverpool. I took my boys up to Selhurst (we cleaned the seats). I am pretty sure it was against Wimbledon. That aside I am very excited by young Evan's start, I don't think it will be an "Aaron moment"

Cleaning seats……..not even close to a reasonable excuse, or kids, or much else for that matter.

 

[Bombardier]

From one of the Everton fan boards. Sums it up nicely!

 

[Mackenzie]

First time I’ve been to Goodison

 

[Right Back]

First time we have scored 32 Premier League goals when it is early January.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Conceding penalties - all converted - in three consecutive away games - yet still winning each of em.

That's an interesting stat. Maybe l'm greedy but l have to admit to feeling disappointed that we didn't get a clean sheet last night.

The stat was Everton's 500th top flight defeat...not sure if home or combined wasn't made clear.

 

[Ali_rrr]

I was at the match (almost by accident but anyway) where Roland Bergkamp made his professional debut back in 2009. I had a feeling that day that it was maybe a historical moment but it wasn't until ten years later that it turned out to be true.

That is a great stat. Why were you in Den Bosch though??

My grandpa worked in the Netherlands (not exactly sure what he did but some kind food-tech-shit) and for the last few years before his retirement, I used to go a few times a year and visit different cities and stadiums with him. Plan was to go see RKC the next day in the Eredivisie but due to some work thing there was a late change of plans and we just went to De Vliert instead as that was close and practical.
