Negativity against Everton - figure of habit , sticking with trend or justified .........

[mikey 62]

Like to throw this out to GOT members, are we not too negative with the posts / threads despite our current conundrum ?

being 9000 miles away I have lost the plot when it comes to the ins and outs of my beloved team were going to the match and the heated pub debates with my mates kept me up to speed also - telling the R/S mates to shut it while grown ups are talking

I joined GOT late last year just before Big Sam was brought in let me state Sam wasnt an option fancied , my call was Tuchel or Simeone , with Silva being a more realistic option

my point is I the latest Threads on GOT for example

Burnley match - over double more of the posts are predicting a loss versus a win , against a team that is in free fall , maybe I am foolhardy or ignorant or just a divvy but I always believe we will win no matter who we play or how bad we were - been wrong plenty of times but goes with the territory .
Big Sam - there is +5 threads related to him almost 80 to 90% wanting him out NOW also not just since the bad run started , many are rightly not happy with him but who else would have taken the job when there was a crescendo it was taking too long , he did give us a good results when he first came in not pretty but I believe it saved us from the drop , it is a short term contract and there should be no illusions there is an extention with a new decent choice for next season - therefore what good are the continous calls for him to be booted now and what are the options if that does happen ?

the above is two examples were majority of posts are what I would regard as negative about our club and seem to me that if you are positive it will come right back at you were you are slagged off as delusional

..it’s human nature that negativity increases following a defeat. There’s usually a plethora of new doom and gloom threads (I call them ‘threadwetters’) with increased activity in the Allardyce and Moshiri conversations. More generally, we’re not very good and Evertonians tend to be a realistic bunch.

Plenty of cause for the negativity at the moment, but it's also a lot to do with the nature of the internet. Football forums will always attract more 'glass half empty' types. That's just a fact of life.

Its apathy and it's getting worse.

3 points of a Europa spot and a win tomorrow has us in that 7th spot all going well, more snowflakes here then outside.

Dortmund Chief Exec calls English fans "clients".

The School of Science gets BFS as manager. And we swallowed it like good little customers that we are.

And we are supposed to be happy?

I am off the booze for March and the month is already endless.

Tend to agree with you, the mass hysteria of negativity about Allardyce is really not helpful but its par for the course nowadays with social media & constant analysis by the press...

Allardyce has not helped himself sometimes with his comments & his latest press conference was not very encouraging & he does appear to be on the edge...

But a win against Burnley followed by another home victory versus Brighton would put a whole new reflection on things & maybe a more positive attitude from all concerned...

Allardyce was there to stabilize our club & lay solid foundations ready for another manager to take us forward in the future this needs to be done then we can move on & have a long term plan...

Knee jerk reactions & witch hunt mentality is not the answer in my humble opinion....

Justified.

If that's all it takes, then bollocks to it. Rather have some dignity.

It's a snowball of negative vibes. I'm going tomorrow so will be singing my heart out for the blue boys and hopefully the "boo boys" will stay behind their keyboards. COYFBB

Nothing has changed under Allardyce, we're just as gash now as we were under Koeman and Unsworth. He has us 2 points better off above relegation than we were before he took over. He blames everybody else bar himself for a defeat (we're paying this man £6m a year to blame everyone else for his failings) his press interviews are actually worse than Martinez's, he's got no balls when we play away from home, no matter who the opposition is, examples against the likes of Bournemouth and West Brom of parking the bus, so lots to be negative about.

For me this season has been hugely disappointing. I try and be a glass half full kind of guy and generally agree that I find the level of negativity a bit high on here.
