Once again proving how massively unfit they are to run a Premier league club. It's been obvious since the league cup loss that Lampard needed to be replaced. They've spent months sitting on their hands hoping things would change and that the fans would turn on Lampard and the players - not on the board.
Leeds had identified Marsch well before sacking Bielsa, Brighton the same when Potter left. We're still scratching our heads wondering what to do. Haven't even announced he is gone when everyone in the game knows he is gone.
Yet they still think they're doing a good job, throwing supporters and managers under the team bus in order to save their own necks.
Absolutely sick to the teeth of the club if I'm honest. I liked Lampard, desperately wanted him to succeed as he genuinely seemed like a decent person, but its been obvious for months he was failing. He was unlucky to lose DCL before the season started, maybe him and Thelwell gambled we'd score enough with DCL and concentrated on defensive and midfield. I dunno, either way it hasnt worked and he hasnt shown hes able to adapt to problems he faces.
This board doesn't deserve a premier league club, only the fans do. Sadly I think we're going down and I dont even want to contemplate the financial disaster thats waiting for us when its confirmed.
I'm glad I'm old enough to have seen us win leagues, cups and a european trophy. I'm sad for younger fans they may never get to see us win a meaningful trophy in at least another generation.
This is the Everton football club Bill Kenwright has likened in his own image. A majestic failure.
