It amazes me that so many forget how awful those last few games where.Silva was sinking like a stone, getting smashed 6-2 at home to Spurs and 5-2 at Anfield. We won't mention Millwall.
But how will protesting stop us being relegated this season? There are no easy answers to this.I agree with davek is saying in that relegation is the biggest threat to Everton FC however if the fanbase don’t protest against the Owner/Board then we will be relegated. The incumbent hierarchy of the club has brought us this position, the inevitable outcome of leaving them in control is relegation and insolvency.
I think the most telling thing about the Owner/Board not knowing how to get us out of the current position we are in is that they don’t seem to recognise the perilous we are in. They don’t seem to realise what they have done to a once great team.
Agreed the sackings at the time were reasonably justified given the expectations then, and the general direction of the team (on a downward trajectory) and/or style of football. In the early sackings and earlier in Moshiri’s tenure, what no one could have initially foreseen is just how inept the board/owner were going to be in replacing managers and in many cases the replacements have been worse than their predecessors with an increasingly tightened financial set of parameters in which to operate. Its only with the unfortunate benefit of hindsight that we are now re-evaluating themI don't think any of the sackings were without merit, myself.
The issue has been consistent sub-par and incoherent recruitment since there was money to spend. We've filled squads with very average players on big wages.
We just stopped signing players with so-called technical or basic football ability, for a start. The various teams have individually and collectively looked terrified of the ball for years.
The managers have been hamstrung to various degrees by interference in transfer activity, that seems certain, but it's not the same as saying their sackings were unwarranted. Apart from Allardyce, we were in the midst of a dreadful run of form and results under all of them.
I know your feeling on the board mate, long standing like myself.I despise these people in charge of Everton. Their demise cant come quick enough.
The biggest enemy we have right now though is relegation. The only thing that can avoid it is getting players into the club. That has to be the focus of pressure.
I have a major fear of us being cracked open as a club in the coming weeks and the players disappearing down a huge hole and give up all fight. We've seen those things happen to other clubs and if we prioritise a civil war then we'll end up where they went.
If we were to liquidate as a club, would the pain cease ? Asking for a friend.
I question the word decent especially about 1 of them
is this la liga basically saying the FA's FFP rule is stupid?
Nah.We will thrash Southampton and the protest will end up looking silly.
Everton that.
It amazes me that so many forget how awful those last few games where.
He looked beaten and completely out of ideas on the touchline at Anfield with the weight of the world on his shoulders.
I'm sure he went to bed that night and prayed for the sack.
