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.

You may be right with a lot of the above, but I honestly wouldn't worry about what the media say about us. Far easier to accept and embrace their disdain. Take it on. Wear it like a badge of honour. Who cares? We know who and what we are (9 league titles etc). Hopefully we might soon rise again to previous heights. But one thing's for sure, the ignorant media will play zero part in that, either way.
 
Silva
I’m only getting excited if Walsh (and Kenwright) follow him.

Silva is a bit underwhelming too.

Very polite of you the describe it in this manner, underwhelming seems to be the in word at the moment.

I understand what you are saying but television appearances generate a lot of money and the higher profile the club the more often they are televised.
An argument has now started as well where the bigger clubs are looking for a bigger share of the cake. We don't want to be left behind by them.
