The 84% is probably because we are massively better than we were a decade ago. That's progress, progress normally comes from careful management and running, in this case that is only partially true.
Financially we are very well motinored, we spend every penny on wages and players and debts racked up paying wages and buying players, this is fact... well that and lawnmowers.
However the flip side of the financial coin isn't monitoring its progress and instead of financially progressing, we are regressing, bigger debts and less assets.
I wouldn't accuse any fan of ignorance however may will choose to be happy with challenging for 4th and having a big debt that is managed the way it is over where we were before, i.e less debt and a shocking team.
I guess they don't care we rent.. everything, or that even below average teams bring in more money and that we could have a much better team if the board actually did... well anything at all really, because when you get down to it, what really matters is the football, and here we are excellent.
I'd also like to say I've not had any negative dealings at all with the club on a personal level, so they get good marks from me in terms of actual match day. In fact combine the improved football and team and the overall match day experience, and I guess if you didn't come on the forums to talk about the rest of the weeks dealings, its a pretty positive day.
Well 84% think so anyway
I agree in general, except even in pure footballing terms it bothers me that 84% of evertonians are happy with no trophies and 5th and 6th being our aim.
