Reality Check - what is successful for Allardyce?

[bullybeef]

Success for BFS is creaming as much wedge out of every possible situation, legit or not legit.

Moshiri’s gonna get fleeced.

 

[efcjames]

Not having to stay for more than 6 months

Everton are historically the seventh most successful club in England by trophies won.

Everton paid the 10th highest salaries last season.

We all spunked our pants when we Moshiri came in net worth £1.7b (2.3usd)

The reality is that he is about the 15th richest owner in English football. When players like Sigi are going for close to £50m and Champions League level players are £75-200m, football is a market that makes Billionaires look poor.
Manchester City probably have a squad value close to £1billion in todays market. Moshiri will never spent that amount on a squad.

Even with a billionaire owner, we are further away from competing with with the top four - who are far far away now and only increasing this gap.

Putting aside unrealistic ambition of Top 4 and taking survival this year as a minimal. Over the next three season, what would you think Allardyce needs to achieve to be deemed successful?

Um.... save another 3 teams?

Because he's gone come May.

Success for Sam?
Get these wasters actually putting a shift in...get that right and half the hard work is done

 

[Blue 1]

Keeping us up.

Which I think he'll fail to do.

 

[Robles#01]

Not being relegated...what a chop...

 

[The Legend of Southall]

7th most successful club? Surely we're 5th if you're counting totals?

 

[catcherintherye]

Top 8 finish and win a cup.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Not running out of gravy before he's finished his meal.

 

[tim cahill]

Keeping us up.

Which I think he'll fail to do.

I’m confident we’ll stay up now.

I wasn’t at the weekend.

[Pabbers]

This season : cup and top 7 minimum.

Next season : cup and top 7 minimum.

Season after : cup and top 7 minimum.

and so on.

getting us out of this mess and instilling some confidence, we can take it from there.
