Why was the Everton flag on top of the Bullens stand at half mast for that game?

Good time to leave Goodison behind, one would suggest.

Apparently it was for a feller in the backroom staff who died.

RIP.

I still think ours is one of the worst out of a bad bunch. It's amazing you can hear Moyes barking out instructions most games when there's 40k people in there.

Not from in Upper Bullens Road stand you can’t ——and whatever he was shouting on Saturday the players didn’t take a blind bit of notice!

There are lots of positives. Things are on the up and up. We’re headed to a new stadium. Setting aside all the disappointment of yesterday and the past many, many years here’s what I think are the core issues needing changed. The first thing anchoring us that we’ve moved on from is (hopefully) instability in ownership. They’re looking good but we’ll know more after this transfer window and after a year or two. Who they’ll ultimately replace Moyes with is key.

But as a club culture, here’s what we’re lacking that separates the bang average from perennial winners.

- No amount of points you’re ahead of your opponent, you keep going for more. Killer instinct.

- Top to bottom (owner - DoF - manager) all on the same page regarding vision. Trust flowing up and down.

- An inspiring manager. Has to be forward-thinking, balanced attack and defence minded. A combination of friendly and fair but with clearly defined boundaries between player and management. You don’t need to Pep and Arteta and scream at adults. They tune you out. If you’re too close, as a manager you’ll make poor decisions and will lack the cut throat nature you’ll need to bench someone.

No blind loyalties. All about the club at all times, every match, every year. Make decisions always where the club’s interest is paramount. Not the player. It has to be that way.

It pains me to say it, but I think we need a touch of what Liverpool brings to the table.

They never, ever given up on a game, they always score (think the stat was that they've scored in every one of their last 31 premier league games) and they always find a way to get something out of a game.

We have to get that attitude, we have to get that level

I ended up watching the match again in full last night and apart from a 10 minute spell in the 1st half where we scored the 2 goals, we were absolutely mince.

Really disappointed watching motd, hardly focused on our flag display and barely got a mention,
Annoying when them and sky fawn over the kop every home game.

Tbh I’m not really bothered what other people / fans think of our flags mate. Especially with reference to the RS. Know what I mean brother?

To be fair, they won the PL, and we avoided relegation with five games left to play.

Regardless, they've always been the same with the kop

Be nice to get a bit of publicity for the fantastic display though

but not championship tho aye

Pretty sure Ipswich are.

I've been hugely complimentary of Moyes impact, admitting it was a surprise, too.

Made tonnes of comments on here calling out the plusses of his first stint.

Are we saying it's the players? We lack quality in areas. Is it foot off the gas because half the squad is leaving ( on paper in 2-3 weeks )?

These are not his mistakes, sure.

But the current form table of the last 10 games is precisely what I feared and our football is poor.
