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

[stamullenblue]

Just have to get over it and support the team and the management ! Thats what a supporter does !!!

I am one of the many who think BFS is a backwards step for this club; I don't think he has the right moral fibre to be Everton manager, however, whilst I do not support him, I will always be behind the team. I have been for over 50 years and I'll out see BFS and am counting the days until he goes. BFS will not stop me going to matches and cheering on the players. Many people who were there on Saturday obviously felt the same because when BFS took his bow, they remained seated in a dignified silence

This largely mirrors my views. I was glad the he received a courteous reception, although I also couldn’t in all honesty bring myself to applaud someone I have never particularly warmed to, going back to his Bolton days. I have always perceived him as a rather petulant and slightly risible figure. I also think his overall managerial record is quite poor.
But I support the team not the man and will continue to do so, despite the manager and his equally repellent (to me) managerial team. I hope they prove me wrong and achieve some sort of success, but that will not alter my opinion of them.
As ever my mantra will be, ‘This too shall pass’.

It's all about opinion obviously.You like me have been a supporter for over 50 years,so you'll remember the appointment of Gordon Lee.Take a look at his record before he managed here.Billy bingham before him had come to us off the back of a failed Euro 72 campaign and managing Linfield and Plymouth (who were relegated)Hardly stellar,yet there was not the toys out of the pram responce that the Allardyce appointment has elicited.So where this "Everton are too good for Allardyce" comes from is puzzling and isn't backed up by history.

I think we are just seeing the difference between fans and supporters.

You're a boring sanctimonious ####

#superbloo!

 

[eddy]

He is here for 18 months, however he will not last that long
Some dirt on his dodgy deals will be exposed and he will quit
Will be embarrassing for the club and once again expose fraudhad for his clueless
ownership of a football club

Maybe he’s what we need. The last 2 managers have taken us backwards and we haven’t had a responsible squad of players since Moyes left. Let him get on with it, he’ll live or die on his results. If he’s successful all these other complaints will disappear.

It is hard to escape the feeling that some on here are willing Sam to fail.

That's what some supporters do. Other supporters (Me included) believe a verbal demonstration to committee members is required.

Can’t speak for anyone else, but for me, it’s the abject disappointment of a ‘comedy’ appointment after I was led to believe that Moshiri heralded a new dawn.

But that’s just me. It’s not personal.

So very true Khal, makes you wonder at times whether some actually want the club to improve, recover, thrive and prosper ?

 

[evertonarntwe]

Not advocating sam as I didn't want him, but like anyone will give him a chance and he's made a positive start but...

you know all this people saying about him gets bungs and all that, if I recall, on the video that was released and they was talking didn't fat sam say something like I'll have to run it by the FA first for whatever they was planning, I mean he's trying to make money but if he was going to run it by the FA it wouldn't have been that bad surely?

again I cant remember the full story, cant be arsed to look it up, just remember slightly and someone in work said something about it

But surely, Andy, this just smacks of ‘survival’ ?

Goodison was full on Saturday and when you think of the performances so far this season I think that shows that supporters support the team/club rather than the manager or individual players.

If we win matches under Allyrdyce then most people will be happy, but even if were to win a trophy there will be a few to complain and moan... this is the way things are and won't change.

I see that some are thinking this is an eighteen month appointment only, I would not be sure of that at all, I think it will depend on results and performances.

Martinez and Koeman delivered relegation battles. I’m past the point of caring about perception now. If Allardyce can get the results they didn’t then I don’t care what everyone else in football thinks of him or us.
