£6,000,000 mate for his latest bit of work. I honestly don't think he's arsed in the slightest.

It's probably the other way around. I imagine he saw this coming, and so he asked for enough to compensate his reputation when the inevitable came along - the club did make it pretty public that they asked everyone but him before he was offered it.

Let's be honest, getting sacked for finishing 8th isn't a bad job in the slightest. If I took a job on an 18 month contract where I knew i was going to be used for my experience/abilities, then binned off once I'd fixed the last bloke's mess, I'd want paying well above my norm for it too.
 
Allardyce's only memory is Everton, from tomorrow evening, will be the 10m quid the club paid him. He can forget us, we'll forget him. Job done.

I am hoping that the new manager will be somebody high profile not previously mentioned. At least that would answer the media suggesting that Sam was as good as Everton could hope for as a manager. I don't think Silva or Fonseca will do that.

Unfortunately the perception that Everton supporters have of their club and the perception that the media have of Everton are poles apart.

We feel that we are one good appointment away from being a top team again and the media sees us as no more than a mid table premiership team with ambitions that are unrealistic.

I have recently looked at all the Everton managers that have been at the club since I started supporting around 1969/70 and so many were just very ordinary. Even Howard Kendall did not look like an ambitious appointment at first. He really was the only frog that turned into a prince in about twenty odd appointments. I think that Joe Royle also probably fits into that category as well.

Just for once I would like to appoint a manager that will have the media talking about us positively instead of asking if Silva or Fonseca will keep us safe in the division.

I may be obsessed with media reaction but unfortunately it is important in football today.

We have never been or will be media darlings mate,Catterick was the most successful manager of the 60s and yet you never ever hear anyone mention him as a great,Kendall won the league 2 out of 3 years and was then cruelly denied the chance for us to win the European Cup (we all know why don't we)but is never mentioned as a great,the media is full of the RS constantly talking them up so me personally :rant: what the media think of us after all we know who and what we are.
