“Fans” that won’t support us if we get Allardyce

[maccavennie]

What sort of excuse is that mate?.

Seriously though, a mate of mine travelled to Amsterdam for 4 nights for the 85 CWCF. He was on the dole and hardly ever went the game because he couldn't afford it. There was a group of us making a break of it on the cheap, staying in a £5 a night youth hostel and getting an overnight National coach to London heavily discounted because we had some Mars bars wrappers or something. My mate still couldn't afford it but didn't want to miss out. So he sold his wife's sewing machine without telling her, to pay for the trip.

None of us knew. We're all over there having a great time and this mate is as quiet as a mouse, which is most unlike him. When we get back to London on he Friday for the Utd game, he comes clean. He was absolutely crapping himself over what his missus was gong to do to him when he got back. If you'd met her you'd know why. lol

lol boss that mate and I hope his missus went easy on him

I still don’t understand why so many people hate Allardyce to be honest.

As I’ve written before, Tim, it’s seen by most, at best, as a ‘comedy’ appointment, and at worst ‘desperation’ , especially as it was still only November when the board started to flap.

For our sakes, I hope he achieves, but none of us surely can say it’s the proudest chapter in our history; and his body language betrays this.

I'm currently reading his book. He's a tough cookie but with a rare sardonic humour.

No surprise there.

If I might be permitted to put my tuppence worth in, chaps.

And I don't care if anyone takes offence at this

IMO anyone taking this non existent moral high ground on the internet and going on and on and on about "not going the match until the fat crook is out my club " is either a very infrequent visitor to The Park or has never set foot inside it.

What regular supporter or season ticket holder would stop going the game just because he or she doesn't fancy the manager?

Going the match is addictive and it is habit forming and only ill health, poverty or anno domini (probably a mix of all three together ) will stop me going.

I say this because I know at least half a dozen season ticket holders who said all through the new manager hunt saga that if Big Sam got the job they would never be back while he is there.

I saw them all either in the Oak or outside the ground before Huddersfield lol

At least four of them are going to The Pit tomorrow

So if anyone is trying to tell me on here that they are an STH or even a couple of times a season attendee or one of our legion of posters who make an annual or semi annual jaunt from across the Atlantic, the Irish Sea of the Eurpean landmass but will not be going no moah while Sam is here then just tell it to the hand.....because I do not believe you


This is your team....it is my team....it is our team.

It is not about Sam Allardyce......it is about us and we go the game no matter who the temporary incumbent (because they are all temporary incumbents) happens to be at any given time.

Even if Donald Trump was the manager

(OK....I might draw the line there and join you in your protest given that scenario )

Another thing bugging me on here right now is the Sad Sack defeatism among so many of our friends re tomorrow's derby and dreading it and hoping it us snowed off.

Catch a flippin' grip, guys.

If you can't get excited and dream of a victory in these kind of games what is the point of this whole football supporting malarkey?

I ain't even going the game but I am already on tenterhooks and I will not sleep much tonight.

Ol' Khal just cannot wait to get at this shower tomorrow

From a personal perspective, I agree with everything you said there mate. It's our club, and managers, good and bad, come and go.
For various reasons ( working abroad, finances, work and family ), I was only an occasional visitor to Goodison for a couple of decades, and missed it dreadfully.

But I ain't going to have a go at anyone who chooses not to go. I know people who stopped going near the end of the Moyes era, and I know a couple who won't set foot inside Goodison while Kenwright has a role in the club. I don't agree with them like, but it's their choice, and their loss.

I think you've been at that white wine lad.

Chef's privilege mate.
One for the fish, one for me.

I'd just like to point out that I don't wear a cravat or a bow tie


Well, not often anyway.

The pocket square looks good, though

 

[tim cahill]

Still won’t watch us?! lollollol

So far Everton remain unbeaten under Big Sam.So hopefully, the longer this boycott continues, the longer Everton remain unbeaten!lol

This upturn if form has coincided with me cancelling my prem subscription. If I subscribe again we will start to lose again. Fact.

His right eye looks about to be attacked by a caterpiller.

Because he's got a past history of dodgy dealing and we have loads of virtue signalling social justice warriors supporting us who want you all to know how morally perfect they are for internet brownie points.

never mind morally perfect, 20 years we've had that (and then some) and its got us no where, bring on the snide and downright deplorable if it brings us some of them metal vases with handles come the end of the seasons

if anyone wants nice and smiley, continue your boycott and go and watch some under 5's cricket practice or something

Who claimed they wouldn't watch?

He's not Matty, he's Sam Allardyce.
