Remember this point of the season.

kiss the crest · January 14, 2018

Yesterday’s result and performance should be remembered by every fan over the coming weeks and months.

I say this because as low as we all feel right now and no matter what happens results wise between now and the end of the season, the board of Everton football club should be reminded that Fat Sam is NOT here any longer than the last game of the season.

What he said yesterday in his pre match interview was way back to the days of Moyes taking a knife to a gunfight. He said “if we get a point here today that is a good result” I’m sorry but I want my team to win no matter who we play.

Some people have mentioned on here about bad Martinez was and he did have massive flaws, however he did get us going toe to toe with most teams we played (can you imagine a fat Sam team going to Wolfsburg and winning 3 - 0 )

My worry is the more we spend in this window means one thing he is here next season.

THIS CANNOT HAPPEN

A point would have been gratefully received

Fully agree a point would have been welcome, but like the OP stated we should be at least making an effort for all three.

More re-writing of history to suit agendas.

Martinez did not have us toe to toe with most teams in his last two seasons, we were an utterly garbage, sideways passing team devoid of ideas.

Very well put KTC.
I couldn't agree with you more. Allardyce shouldn't have even been considered for the job as our manager. No matter how "desperate" we were a few weeks ago, this charlatan was not the answer. A few decent results against poor teams doesn't change that.

Yeah imagine winning 21 games out 38 in one season and setting records for attacking football...all from sideways passing.

Hopeless analysis.

Best counterattacking seen at this club for years.

Now we have some dullard even worse than the other two dullards Koeman and Moyes.

Wowsers. You must really hate Sam!

“In one season” being the operative phrase, Dave.

Jesus, no one would love it more than me if he could replicate that first season again but the facts are there - seasons 2 and 3 were pitiful and the football was dross.

I dont. I remain grateful that we have Allardyce rather than Koeman who was a disgrace. At least with SA you know where you stand: he's hopeless and everyone recognises that and he himself doesn't pretend (like Koeman) that he's a great manager.

I blame only one person: that beaut Moshiri.

Three seasons here: best PL season we've known + two SFs in the cups.

Savour that because we wont be experiencing a repeat for a long long time.
