Or they could continue to go to work and collect a fat pay cheque every month. Love how people flaunt morals and ethics when it's not their money.
Bet you disagree with some of the higher ups in your place of employment right?
March into HR now and tell them how disgruntled you are then hand them your letter of resignation. Go on, do it now, or is it not the right thing to do when it's you that has to do it?
The interview process of a football manager appointment should be a very minor point. Anyone can talk a good game in an interview. You should be judged on your previous work, your success or failure and your methods in those jobs.
If the board have genuinely been talked around in an interview process then that does not bode well.

In fairness (and in no way advocating his appointment) that sounds like he set up the team to play to their strengths (or lack of them) which I don't think is something you can criticise too much.Rafael Benitez’s Newcastle generally set up in a 5-4-1 formation for the majority of the 2018/19 season. The formation rarely changed as it suited the squad’s players and disguised their flaws.
This was the shape they sat and defended in with their low block. As they were a very defensive side under Benitez, they were in this shape for the majority of their matches.
Under Rafael, Newcastle were a very defensive-minded side. Benitez has always had a reputation for being a very pragmatic and tactically brilliant coach. At Newcastle, it was no different, his football was not easy on the eye.
Newcastle typically allowed the opposition to build out from the back with minimal pressure.

This tactical analysis article will be an analysis, comparing the tactics of Newcastle under Steve Bruce and Rafael Benitez. We will be looking at the different tactics of Newcastle under Benitez and Bruce, from the 2018/19 and 2019/20 season.totalfootballanalysis.com
Can't hardly wait to be bored to death once again.
Would be nice if we could do that rather than trying to crowbar our squad into a system that the manager wants but they clearly can't play in.
Kids. Don't do drugs.
Never wanted Benitez , wanted Ajax boss but if he gets the job, I’ll still be an Everton fan .

I doubt we'll be doing anything of the sort. Stop thinking you are the all-conquering all-seeing intelligent one and the rest of us are a level below you. You might think that but there are many on here who you wholly underestimate and think that nobody will call you out because you are the bullying type. As a matter of interest, what is your highest tertiary qualification?

Yes.
Are we going to pretend this isn't an issue?
You and others can look down your nose at those fans who are not fair and reasonable enough to accept an ex RS manager all you want.
It does not change the fact that the sentiment is exactly that and it is not a healthy scenario to improve things from.

On the flipside he played more attacking footy at Valencia, the reds, Chelsea & Madrid and absolutely battered some teams during his tenures there.Rafael Benitez’s Newcastle generally set up in a 5-4-1 formation for the majority of the 2018/19 season.

He's a pragmatist similar to Ancelotti, though obviously not as successful. He played very defensively at Newcastle as it suited their squad at the time. Literally their only attacking threats whilst he was there were Rondon, Perez & Shelvey - hardly the most fearsome trio that. He's also on record saying that Ashley took the piss and basically wouldn't back him to add any significant quality.
That kind of footy won't stand up long term at Everton, and it was the same case for Ancelotti.
Ultimately the hope is that IF Benitez genuinely feels he can turn us into a top side as long as he's sufficiently backed then that's something that Moshiri et al will be hanging their hat on... but it's a huge risk.
He was there for three years mate and didn't change the style of play even once. In fact, he signed players to suit that style. Look at the utter turd he brought into that club to go into his team.
