Everton Are A Soft Touch

[mahermi1]

The thing is, what do we want from this? The red card being rescinded is crap but it doesn't really effect us in any way. It wont bring Gomes back any quicker and why should other clubs benefit from our misery anyway?

I don't think there are any "victims" here. It was not an intentional leg break but I do agree that Spurs have been incredibly crass here. Just take the ban and get on with it.

The last bit is probably what's winding me up the most, thought it was brilliantly orchestrated though, got to hand it to them.

If someone breaks your mate's leg would you immediately console them and make sure they're okay? No, and no one in their right mind would expect you too.

Coleman's intentions were good but he, the manager and the people higher up have massively let the club down with their reactions to this incident. It was disgrace and none of them were willing to publicly stand up for Gomes, Everton, and the supporters. So depressing.

I think Tuson has a go at Son if you look at the replays of the aftermath Tuson is feumin,

Just seen a great interview from someone from Everton TV who says Everton have become soft.

Couldn’t agree more.

Summed up by Sunday’s events where our Captain is consoling an opposition player... a player who has just committed a very cynical and dangerous tackle on one of our own resulting in a very serious injury.

We have a manager who is so meek and feeble it’s a wonder he can get through a day.

We have a chairman and a board who allow the club to get walked all over time after time without saying a dicky bird. Poor refereeing and VAR decisions... getting ripped off in the transfer market...not sticking up for our own.

Enough is enough!

Grow a pair Everton!!

Excellently put.

You have no idea what happens behind closed doors with Silva, Brands, Moshiri, Kenwright or even Boa Morte and Ferguson.

Theres been a few times where the club has complained in private in the past and nothing has come of it.

The only way to not be "bullied" is to have a number of players who are absolute generals and warriors like a Roy Keane, Tony Adams, John Terry, Dave Watson etc.

Ive not yet commented on Coleman going over to console Son but would any of the named players above do that? Would they heck!

We have some players who "know what theyre doing" in Mina, Digne, Gones, Richarlison...what we need now is a couple of true leaders and top players signed, and im not talking about Fabian Delph lol

Recently Digne, Sigurdsson, Davies, Coleman, Baines, Jagielka have been named as captains.

Just from watching the games i dont see they hold a candle to premier league winning captains in terms of leadership.

The problem we have is...where do you find someone like that?

Agreed, but these guys can’t be bought, these are brought up and developed within...

Apologist for the under achieving and totally submissive club that we are.

Have some ambition.

The levels of not arsedness from the majority of our fans is utterly terrible.

We've been soft for about 6 seasons now in my opinion.

 

[PhilRegan]

Can we get the medicine balls out too ?

Why not, I'd get them on the bags and pads aswell.

 

[d34noj]

I tried this once, was told to chew stilton whilst swigging port, honestly one of the most horrendous things I've ever tried.

ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT.

Whats the point of being arsed? What does it do? Getting angry about things that are not in our control that wont change anything anyway.

It definitely does.

The media and powers that be are scared of the club's with the most vocal supporters, and make their decisions accordingly.

 

[Rudolf Hucker]

But all you're doing is complaining then saying "not my problem pal" when asked to come up with a solution.

The board are soft and getting pushed around... But how you cannot say. Nor what to do about it. The board should solve that. But they're useless so they won't. So you'll keep complaining.

The Everton board hasn’t been fit for purpose since John Moores got too old to run it.

As long as Kenwright has a hand in it, nothing will change.

We’ll just have to agree to disagree.

This doesn't answer anything though. Our 30 years of underachievement are due to us not being very good. Its not down to fight or being a soft touch, Moyes and his teams were not soft touches generally, yet we still won nothing.

We have done nothing for 30 years because we have not been good enough talent wise.

Who’s responsibility is it to recruit the right talent?


I’m going to leave it now. No point arguing.

 

[Bungle]

ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT.

I specifically chose the word 'tried' rather than 'done'

 

[Disgruntledgoat]

Why not, I'd get them on the bags and pads aswell.

Absolutely. Punching stuff is great preparation for football, after all. Who needs all these fancy kids who've been to college and read books? What do they know? A spell in the forces would do them the world of good.

 

[Frang]

Er, think you'll find Ped is from ToffeeTV not Everton TV.
He and you might think he's official, but he isn't.

Got love abit of bunchy

Boxing training is one of the best ways to build fitness, improve balance and create discipline. Of course education is crucial but that's another arguement. Armed forces nah don't agree with them.
