Next Everton Manager

[mkrudden]

Only hope he is getting interviewed to flush out or help with negotiations on other candidates

No chance is Moshiri taking up valuable time counting his money to interview Sam for flushing out purposes.
He's incoming Neil. Face it.
Good appointment.

If Allardyce is appointed to our club I will make it my life’s mission to drive him out,even if I end up as a lone voice. This character is not fit to be a manager of Everton Football Club.
He is a nasty little Klingon on the backside of football and should have been scraped off and flushed away long ago.

It couldn't be The Big Sam, could it?

I would be very disheartened if true.

I'll believe it's Big Sam as soon as I see it on Panorama once they've trawled through a Bermudan legal entity's hacked email account and found a smoking gun of Usmanov paying him £100k a week for consultancy fees.

I'd rather leave Unsworth in charge and take more time to get a manager that is actually good, rather than give it to Big Sam who will spunk a load more cash on a bunch of yard dogs in January.

He won't be given the money to spend in January. I think he will be told a CF and that's it.

Pictures of billy liar on MOTD...he still has a malign influence on Moshiri.. Hence why we are going to appoint one of 2 managers steeped in mediocrity just as Moyes was. Just the image of that gum chewing tub of lard on the touchline is enough. Thankfully I am now retired because I would dread going into work having to justify fat Sam as manager. Laughing stock we are now.. Thanks bill... Not!!

Actually, they did. You're thinking 'but they had Okocha!!!' - but the tactic was to hit it long to Davies and let Okocha do all the work with the second ball in the final third - he was never likely to drop deep for it.

It was quite similar to Moyes in that way; get the ball into the final third ASAP.

Oh no absolutely, sorry I thought Dave was insinuating Stoke-like footy: everyone in the box.
You're spot on, it was first ball into the final third and play from there.
They did play some decent footy, just like we did under Moyes.
I'm not advocating long term with Sam but it's a gimme for the rest of this season IMO.

Take nothing away from Ivan Campo.

Djorkaeff
Anelka
Hierro

Yes, a two hundred nicker bet would bring the odds tumbling down

Quite a lot of action around this morning on there though - think the market has grown by £10k overnight which is a fair bit in a next manager one (but nothing in a match / racing environment)

The embargo buster articles have got it going

I seem to remember Bolton under him, having 2 or 3 games at the end of the season having a pop at playing actual football* once they had ground out the requisite points to ensure another season of top flight tedium.

*edit to include it was probably just in comparison to Walter Smith or Moyes' Everton or whoever was our manager at the time playing consistently dross like rot at the time.

Actually give me a day and I will find a positive slant on Big Sam.

Is it just me, when you see fat Sam chewing the cud, it makes you salivate like you're in a dentists chair?
Probably just me...

Theres nothing wrong with long balls if you win.

I thought Bolton played some good footie back then

If Allardyche comes in and things don’t improve Goodison’s toxcicity will reach unprecedented levels.

Among my circle of matchgoing friends and acquaintances yesterday, there was 100% opposition to this scoundrel being appointed and fetching in Shakespeare and the other merry men.

More than one fellow said they will actually stop going if Sam comes in.

We do not need to take this step at this moment in time.....if ever.

A club would only ever think of appointing him as a last resort if they were in the mire.....five or six points from our next three games, two of which are against current bottom three sides, will see us in the top half with Huddersfield coming to town after that.

For goodness sake wake up Moshiri.
