I think the outsiders don't understand what Frank did for us last year - yeah he saved us from what seemed certain relegation... but he's (and Thelwell tbf) done so much more WRT uniting the fan base, getting the most out of the funds and financial constraints we are left with after almost a decade of fiscal mismanagement, having a clear plan on the pitch and structure in the club and what he demands out of Everton players in their attitude & work rate.
Most of us can also see the type of footy he's trying to get the team to play and it's what we've been crying out for.
Also they're managing to keep Moshiri & Kenwright's nose out of making marquee signings (so far).
