we had hope in the mid 90's. hope we wouldn't get relegated
Moyes added: “The image of this club being in crisis is completely wrong. If you are an Everton supporter then what you saw last Saturday, you simply haven’t seen very often all season, or in fact for several years.
“But maybe it has something to do with the hope we’ve given to the fans. Everton during the 1980s had great teams and great hope, but there wasn’t too much since then.
“Now, I think there is great hope. This season, we have provided the hope that we can maybe get back to those days, and so after a performance like that the fans are going to be disappointed.
Moyes making out he's doing us a favour again.

Is this not another myth......constant relegation battles in the 90s?
I can only recall two seasons when we were involved in the relegation battle at the business end of the season.....'94 and '98.
Maybe I'm wrong.
In the very middle of the 1990s we won the F.A. Cup.......and the following season we were involved in the Title battle up until the vastly underrrated Joe Parkinson was injured at Derby and the title challenge petered out.
But as it was, we finished 6th that season, pipped for a UEFA Cup spot only by Arsenal on the last day.
The 90s weren't the doom and gloom era that they are painted.
Telling it like it is.
Please, please, point out anything in what hes said that isnt 100% spot on.

Well, that for a start.
Off the top off my head, the surrender at Anfield and the second half at Wembley last season.
QPR at home in the first match of that season.....the Reading replay.....Bolton away....Everton 1 Arsenal 6.....the string of home matches in the autumn of 2011 when we lost to Newcastle, Stoke and gained a lucky point against the doomed Blackburn only because Fellaini sat Timmy up with his hand.
The ****ler seems to think he is Pep Guardiola.
He ain't.
It was the early and late 90s that we were gash like. In the mid 90s we were decent when JR was the manager but it all fell apart when he left. Johnson promised us the world and he failed to deliver.

Moyes will decide in the summer and Bill has backed him 1000 percent to allow him the time to decide.
That is the word from inside L4 as it stands tonight.
