Do They Know?

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

Do the current board know how useless they’ve been?

Imagine whatever job you do. Imagine being the boss. Imagine being as useless as our current lot have been. Would someone tell you that you’re a waste of space? Or would you be allowed to carry on destroying the company? For over twenty fuck1ng years?

Hang the DJ.

Certain people associated with EFC deserve the chop. Regardless of if we survive or not…

Very sobering indeed.

We were a truly enormous club 3 decades ago. We’re still a big club, but the fact that we were more successful than Man Utd when the Premier League was established is just extraordinary.

‘The boiling frog is an apologue describing a frog being slowly boiled alive. The premise is that if a frog is put suddenly into boiling water, it will jump out, but if the frog is put in tepid water which is then brought to a boil slowly, it will not perceive the danger and will be cooked to death’

We’re about to be plated up and smothered in garlic butter. If we go down I don’t see how William can be allowed to continue.

I think we have an element amongst the fanbase, who'll still kiss his arse and refer to his critics as entitled kopites, regardless of whether we go down or not.

We'll yes, but unfortunately.....

This kind of behaviour will be absolutely rife.

I cannot understand how people STILL defend Kenwright.

Not long now..... Tick tock.

… it’s Christmas!

 

[ToffeeTim]

And yet Goodison still applauds them. You get what you deserve sometimes

 

[Nymzee]

It’s Christmas time at all

I don't understand how people STILL think he is the problem.

He has oversaw mediocrity, which of course is not good enough, but he has not presided over an utter shambles where we have hacked away at any shred of identity or dignity that we once had.

"Building us a stadium" though isn't he?

 

[Toffee_Loaf]

It is harsh to lay the blame only at his door. I think the best thing we could do as fans is to get public commitments from him anyone in such positions about targets, that we had to achieve something by some date like a league title. All we have on him are vague statements on the new ground and the various iterations. If we had got him to say I want to win the league title by this date or do this by that date. That would be something we could hold him accountable for. Since he's weaseled out of all of that stuff, he gets away without anyone actually being able to challenge his record of mediocrity.

He has been a failure in his current position undoubtedly, but will be here for a long time to come.

Do I wanna know?

"but what about"

Nonsense. They're all at fault to varying degrees.

The fact is, he's been on the board for 33 years, chairman for what.... 25?

Its arse sniffers in the media and fanbase that allow that mediocrity you mention to become the norm.

I don't demand trophies, but I do expect them to be the very best achievable version of Everton under the circumstances. We're a million miles from that.

Remove Moshiri, the board is still abject, stumbling along season to season in an era of unprecedented commercial wealth. Why were we hand to mouth BEFORE Moshiri? Bad luck or pathetic leadership?

When you factor in the Chairman surrounds himself with "Good Blues" who'd otherwise probably be unemployed strengthens his hand. They can always be relied upon to back him up when needed.

It's utterly embarrassing.

It's all very well the owner saying I want to win xxxx by xxxx, but without a road nap of how he hopes we achieve that it's exactly like you say, vague ideas.

If he says "I want to win xxxx by xxxx, here is our Director of Football and First Team Manager to explain how they aim to ahieve this." it's worth a listen.

If he says, "Here's Bill and Denise to talk about Big Dunc and our exciting plans for our new sleeve sponsor" it's a waste of time.

Played a master stroke.

He’s managed to dismantle us from one of the best sides in Europe to a club who accept “we’ve had some good times”, despite not winning a trophy for a minimum of 28 years, with relegation looming large.

We’re a joke.

The rot had started way before that. Realistically it started in round 1988. Lack of Europe, sold our best players replacing them with players who were not as good and missing the Premier League gravy train.

The game has changed, we were left behind when the Premier League kicked off and went further down past that.

Under Kenwright's "reign" we were pretty much the best of the rest for the most part (again nothing to celebrate but hardly awful either) whilst the big money clubs continued to dominate the league buying up everything and everybody. We cut our cloth accordingly in the meantime instead of "doing a Leeds" and chasing a dream that was not sustainable.

Now we have the dream chaser in charge who thinks that throwing money at everything will fix all our woes, it obviously will not.

As always with these cases I never see any alternative suggestions other than impossible dreams with no basis in reality. A ground move we couldn't afford (which is no guarantee of success either) or selling to some murderous regime or some scumbag billionaire who couldn't give a toss.

We all want better, of course we do. How we get that though is not as easy as some like to make out evidently.
