30 Years of Excuses

[Bally1989]

When are we going to stop as fanbase finding excuses to avoid having tough conversations about our football club and its ambitions.

It’s a bit cult like, similar to those lot across the park.

The fanbase is dumbed down to shrug their shoulders and accept this level of failure.

We're Everton Football Club and a club supported by two legged pit ponies who race whippets are taking the piss at our place and it's accepted.

 

[Ray Purchase]

One day it will turn.

Just not with this manager and group of players.

Tbf I dont think there's been a lack of conversation on here in the last week about us not having serious ambition.

Would level it at Moyes and Kinnear more than I would the fans.

Careful now, one of the wind up merchants or club lackeys will say something not very nice to you.

Don’t worry had my run in with a few of those lackeys on here already.

Careful now, one of the wind up merchants or club lackeys will say something not very nice to you.

We’ll get a careful what you wish for or look at West Ham…

Moyes will get till end of season most likely but no more hopefully

 

[Bally1989]

think this will resonate with a number of excuses makers on here

 

[ToffeeTim]

The only thing this club is good at is spinning failure as success and making excuses for why we aren't any good.

“But he remortgaged his house “ was a personal favourite of mine when discussing blue bill

 

[Bally1989]

“It could be worse it could be…”

Actually our existence is utter misery we don’t have anything to celebrate

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Our decline started really in the late 1980s,signing the likes of McCall,McDonald,Nevin,Cottee whilst the other lot were going for genuine quality we were basically accepting second best,Heysel? Yes a massive turning point,our board even then was weak,look at how the perpetrators of that horrific night actually prospered,we should never have allowed HK to have gone,if Lineker left as he did we should have had first option on any return,again a poor board,the list is endless,the decline has been steady ever since all the way through to where we are currently.

I am of OAP bus pass age now
And in conversations with mates, I said I don’t think I will ever see Everton win the league as a match goer.
Am I being defeatist or pragmatic

The frightening thing for me is I feel I am now conditioned to accept that we as a club are simply making the numbers up
