Ok, not looking for an argument but, who was Haji Wright supposed to be marking then?

He was front post. This guy started about ten yard behind him. He was Kitching’s man.

Watching the highlights back and there are multiple occasions when Kitching fails to deal with the threat, including their goal. I’m fine with keeping him, but I really think a better starting CB would do more for this team than any new LB, ST or even GK.

Ok but you never answered my question, who was Haji Wright supposed to be marking?

It's over, and we move on.
Only way, otherwise we dwell on something for years on end, like stupid Sunderland supporters.
And we ain't like that.
BTW, I was at that match in 77, it was roughly 12 minutes extra, and we did like any other team would do, especially Sunderland, and we played for time.
Hypocrites, the lot of them. Also, what a lot of people don't know, is that near the end of those 12 minutes or so, the scoreboard announced an error to the score, and we all thought it would say Sunderland had equalised, (it was announced as 1-0 to Everton originally), which would have meant we were down. Turned out they lost 2-0 😂🤣
Hutch got two, then we let in two soft goals. Nothing changes much I guess.

Same as Sakamoto and several others. That’s how a partial zonal marking system works.

Obviously didn't work, oh for the days when Center Forwards like Dion Dublin and Mick Ferguson can defend against the opposition Center Halves. 🤷

That wasn't the issue, it was the fact that it was orchestrated before the game kicked off.

But, as you say, it's the present that counts.
