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

[D410]

For all the angst about his character, is he any worse than the players stealing obscene wages by playing abominably, showing no passion for the club, etc etc.

Indeed I,m hoping Sam will put a few of the thieves in the ring with Tony Bellew at FF for foot work sessions with no head guard.

I love the way some are posting “crook” despite the fact that Koeman almost ruined us and walked away with a £10m bonus.

Who’s the crook?

The lad who took kickbacks from his players contracts and lost the national team job because he was trying to take on the side work he was contractually not supposed to. Oh, and leaves a trail of broken financially clubs.

That crook.

Koeman was legally entitled to his payout. Like every rubbish CEO who gets fired. As Martinez was. Those little kickbacks for Allardyce, he wasn't legally entitled to.

That crook.

Taking what was owed to you in a legally binding contract can't be equated with taking bungs. You're well off there mate.

I am not in the minority, Goodison will be full on Wednesday

Aye, one big, happy family...

Big Scam will throw the fa cup, he always does with his relegation haunted outfits.
Not Everton that, the fa cup is in our blood.
If he's in I'm out

Surely it's time the blue union came out of dormancy?

 

[tim cahill]

Just said on the pod - does everyone like every player? No.

But we still go.

So why is a manager any different?

Are we all angels? Nope. I’m not anyway.

I’ll give him a chance.

Good work on the podcast btw.

Thanks we’ve just recorded this week’s.

Absolutely

No mate, it's usually because you have ballbag opinions that reek of you being a kopite.

Why is the manager any different? Because he's the main public face of the club. And this particular one has years of corruption and scandal following him.

And it is not excused because he wins trophies.

Not excused because he wins 50% of his games.

Or even 40%.

Mid 30s. Everton have allowed his cronies to swan in and will rag the club for a tonne of cash for the miserable time they are here.

Oh, and to get them in, we've sacked a load of Evertonians off to do it. Amazing, a club that looks after its own eh? But not when it gets really tough, we boot them to the curb and bring in as much amoral filth as we can muster.

well lets keep them and get relegated. maybe Moshiri and his people are starting to flex. hopefully Kenwright goes with them

 

[Gladystweet]

It certainly hasn't been a boring season, has it.......?

 

[orly]

well lets keep them and get relegated. maybe Moshiri and his people are starting to flex. hopefully Kenwright goes with them

He's starting to flex his muscles by appointing Allardyce and Shakespeare.

Ok mate.

 

[Rossisboss]

Thanks we’ve just recorded this week’s.

Where can I find this?

 

[macdog]

Yes, because they are on contracts, wages.

Allardyce circumvents the usual rules because he thinks that they don't apply to him. This is a man given (by default as all the other candidates were abysmal) the national team job and lost it almost instantly due to corruption.

And his team of acolytes, led by Walsh who has brought this club to its knees, will bleed it dry for however long he is here.

I see where you're coming from, and I'm not advocating him, but your opening sentence, to me, indicates that they are just as unethical.

A bit NEA tbh - it's crying over spilt milk. The club stepped on its dick in colossal fashion in the summer and that's what's done the damage - the sort of collective decision making that sets a club back years. So getting in someone who has a better than average chance of keeping us up sounds OK at this point in time [although I get the distaste for Big Sam the Bungmeister]. I mean what are people hoping for - a late run at the top six and a gritty, hard-fought FA cup run? We're the worst team in the league FFS.
