New Everton Manager

[Theoneandonly]

Really ?

And Benitez didn't stay overnight in Newcastle at all during his time there - the hotel bills would have been cheaper than the train fares

He used to get a private helicopter a lot too. Funnily enough he shared it with Carragher when he was working in the same area.

If there going to make such an unpopular appointment at least have the balls to announce it properly

Letting it filter out like this is pathetic

Lateral thinking as a club. Safe choice, boring football we’ve had for years and set in his ways. Lacks ambition.

Imagine not understanding how brilliant Veron was outside of the English game. Dreadful comparison.

No its not a dreadful comparison. You can't say 1 player who cost 5 times more 5 years earlier is acceptable, but a cheaper player who did better than average is a crap signing for less money.

People joked that's what they would do ,and they did

Did they?? Not seeing any announcement

If years of supporting Everton hadn't ground me down already then I would care a lot more about this. As it is, I just can't be bothered. If he's good then that's nice, we've been crap for a while now. If he's rubbish then let's try our very best to not kidnap his family.

Man Utd paid 30m for Veron in 2001. So yes Bellamy for 6mil 5 years later was "buttons".

Buttons for bobbins.

He was not a good signing for Liverpool.

Anyone its time for you to go back to your home planet now. Your mission is complete here.

I'm kind of the same but the other way.

I am too ground down to care so I can just let it go a bit and not bother with it.

I would rather have allardyce back than appointing Rafael.

 

[Davidoff]

I’ve no idea how they’d even consider him - he was always going to split the fanbase, he’s past it, and he’s an odious kopite

I mean wtf???

 

[davek]

If he bins Ferguson, Unsworth, Ebbrell, Baines and Jevons I'll carry that Rafatollah painting around for a day.

Well done Everton you’ve tried a lot over the last few decades to make me feel numb about the club but you might have finally succeded.

Never felt so distant, alienated and disenfranchised toward the club.

Alot down through the years I could reconcile with the eternal hope that better might be on the way or at the very least the club reflected integrity and dignity as key values of the club. This decision represents nothing of what the club should reflect or aspire to be.

The manager does not represent what I think our club should be and I just can’t reconcile it. It’s knawing.

Dont know how I‘ll feel when the season starts, but it’s hard at the moment to get excited even over new players, can’t bring myself to back anything to do with this at the moment.

Heres a thing about Benitez, when have you ever seen him at Anfield watching? never, Rush does and Daglish...etc I bet he hates the actual club, those saying he is RS, he is no more RS then Carlo is a Evertonian, he was just employed by them once, the fans might love him but who cares what they think.

I agree. Last season was the first season since i started supporting everton that i barely even bothered checking the final scores
