One thing you’d change about Everton

[Neiler]

Probably the curse.

 

[Neiler]

Probably the curse.

Oh and our players wearing red boots - you've all gone soft.

 

[The binman chronicles]

Winning football matches and trophies.

 

[the golden visionary]

Acceptance of mediocrity.

Although that’s more on a lot of our fans than the actual club.

The hypocrisy of the same people accepting mediocrity getting annoyed when the same club is mediocre

 

[Alex Young`s Cat]

Remember who we were.

School of Science. Merseyside Millionaires. A big club pushing for success.

Drop this mid-sized mediocre image of just staying in the league making up the numbers.

Over to you Friedkin Group

This 100%

 

[Dddddd]

Trophies

 

[gonetomorrow]

The lack of a keen as mustard young reserve team centre forward desperate to show what he can do.
Local lad too.

 

[Bluebonic]

I’d chane the FA ruling that bans us from purchasing a right back.

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

Get rid of the paid for membership.
Bring back stubhub.
Lose the not being able to buy shirts outwith the city.

 

[Tipp blue]

Change the whole attitude away from an utter refusal to upgrade LB RB and Striker positions.

This was the case as recently as maybe 6-7 years ago before the club made the wrong decision for fans and tourists alike to go full membership, etc.

Ticket resale sites like Stubhub (once owned by ebay but since (recently) sold to Viagogo I think) weren't even in the UK until about 12 years ago and even then they weren't fully allowed into the football ticket world until maybe 5 years later. Clubs caught on that people (and touts) were buying tickets and then selling them via these sites so memberships were made compulsory initially as an extra 'security' measure (yeah, right, because memberships have stopped this sort of thing happening).

West Ham give away thousands upon thousands of home match tickets to schools and charities because they don't have the season tickets or sufficient membership holders to buy all tickets. Will we follow suit with thousands of empty seats at some point in the future if season ticket and membership sales drop off and people have no other way of accesssing a ticket other than from a ticketing site?

I get giving members priority, that makes sense, but when there is hundreds of tickets on the resale site in the days immediately preceding a game it makes no sense to not open for general purchase after a priority window for members. How will we attract new fans to the club if they never have the opportunity to attend a home game without shelling out £100+ on seat unique or by buying a £60 membership to buy a single ticket at £60? I appreciate the club need to raise revenue but they also need a conveyor belt of new fans. The current batch won't live forever!

[Groucho]

I’d change the events of 1985 in Belgium.

This is not a bitter post. I genuinely would. It’ll all be so different now.

 

[Drico]

The fetishising of "stability".

We are now stable. We will not be relegated. We will likely not make Europe. We will definitely win nothing.

Whatever about the manager, what are we waiting for to improve the squad? Start signing better players, Everton. And please don't tell us the World Cup makes it a difficult market in the summer - especially if you sit out this winter window.

 

[sd_1992]

The loser attitude that permeates every single layer of this club. From the manager who could not care less if he wins matches, to the players who don’t hate losing enough, to the fans who fetishise crap negative football, to the administrative running of the club who have the only ground in the league where people have to go through metal detectors to get in on a match day.

Not one part of this club is ambitious or well run. Not one.
