Toxic rival fans

[edge]

Only by hating ourselves can we truly be free my dear fellow bloo.

True that mate.
I spent half my life making sure the other clubs didn't like me or Everton.
Swift boot in the bollocks normally does that to people.
So can't complain when they pipe up on the net spouting anti Everton stuff.

Everton haters Sir. Thousands of ‘em!

If we’d have gone down I wouldn’t have given Leeds or Leicester a moment’s notice, the majority of Everton fans I know would have laid the blame solely at our own ineptitude.

Any fans of Leicester or Leeds blaming us or calling the Brighton result dodgy etc. really need to look at their own team’s failings. They haven’t gone down because we were anything approaching decent. They’ve gone down because they were utterly terrible.

Yeah they had 38 games and could only manage 31 and 34 points, but they think its our fault they went down?

Everton is the handsome rogue that all the ladies love and the other chaps hate.

I've enjoyed us staying up that little bit more because of how much it seems to have wound the rest of the premiership up.

I have found the reaction from the supporters of other English based football clubs of our survival very interesting.

It is not just the RS it seems to be right across the board a real disappointment that we have survived.

It is strange on one hand as we are a poorly run club who have not won a trophy for nearly 30 years and are unlikely to offer up any threat to the sharp end of the table for the foreseeable future.

I do start to wonder if on some level there is a bit of jealousy towards the club and its position as the old lady of English football. One of the founder league members. A club that is still integral to its local community with a highly concentrated local support base

For the Sky 6 success has come at a price. Prawn sandwiches, cheese rooms, half and half scarfs. It is a diluted experience. Look at the RS when they experienced a little adversity under Hodgson their attendances started to drop as people from Denmark no longer wanted to make the journey. Same thing happened to Arsenal a couple of years back when they were struggling. They still reported sell outs but some season ticket holders stopped turning up. We have been served up poo on a stick for large parts of the last 30 years. The last two seasons back to back relegation battles yet we have still been filling a stadium that has thousands of restricted view seats. The support should be proud. It also highlights how important it is that the transition to the new stadium is done properly to ensure we don’t lose our soul

I think one of the main factors for other fans and media negativity is our pretty much omnipresence through-out the history of football.
Something oil states can't buy, something far eastern band wagon supporters can't create and blinkered media empires can't dislodge.
It gets right up their noses.

Yes but he only turns up once or twice a year!!

 

[Abertonian]

The league should make it compulsory that every team has a spell under frank lampard

This would make things interesting, a way of introducing handicaps to level the playing field:

Congratulations to Man City on winning the title, next season you've been allocated Frank as manager.

 

[Drico]

Whilst the Bournemouth crowd were singing about us going down the ones I was speaking to after the game said rather us stay up than the other two!

The wonderful thing was they didn’t get to choose…

 

[Ralphie Boy]

The £500m narrative I find a little tiresome. It is not a net spend. Chelsea spent more in 6 months.

If we don’t correct them they will keep quoting, it fits their agenda of hating!

 

[Onwards Evertonians]

Th Southampton fans were desperate to see us down, remember so weird rivalry they tried to have with us too.

I’m definitely fed up of seeing little weirdos on whining about a 500m net spend which is absolute bs.

 

[Saint Domingo]

We were terrible as well. It was some going to finish below this Everton team.

If I was a Leicester fan I’d be raging at my own team though. Missed pen against us. Missed opportunities to beat Everton and Leeds at home when it was in their hands. Dropped all their best players to cowardly protect a point away at Newcastle banking on us messing up. I’d be bsolutely livid if any Everton manager had done what Smith did at Newcastle when survival was in their own hands to then go down the next game because the gamble backfired.

Only themselves to blame.

Thinking about our travelling fans that's one less S Coast trip next season ,Southampton replaced by Luton which is much easier to get to. Unfortunately their ground is only about the size of Walton Hall Park
