If fat Sam is here beyond this season who will renew their season ticket?

I for one could not stomach the idea of watching him on the touch line and his style of football we have become so small time and a laughing stock.

I've had a season ticket during the Walter Smith, David Moyes, Martinez and Koeman eras. We haven't won a single thing in that time and have had some poor to terrible seasons under all of them. I've seen us crash out of the Cup at Goodison to Tranmere, Reading, Wigan, Norwich under those managers and suffer humiliating defeats to the likes of Bolton (4-0) and West Brom (4-1). We haven't won a derby since 2010 or at Anfield since 1999.

If Allardyce comes in and keeps us up, how is it any more embarrassing than any of that?

Were you not embarrassed when we failed to beat Limassol at home? Or when we've just got beaten 8-1 over 2 games to Atalanta? The 5-2 v Arsenal, 4-0 at Man United, 3-0 at home to Spurs. Barring the home game v Atalanta that all happened under European Cup Winner Ronald Koeman's tenure. Maybe to some having a prestigious foreign name for a manager makes all those humiliating defeats less embarrassing but it doesn't to me.

I want what's best for the club, and we're currently heading for the Championship. We need a manager who knows how to make his teams defend and has proven he can keep a team up in this position, which Sam Allardyce has. So I think I can stomach a bit of piss taking from other supporters if it means we keep our proud record of being an ever present in the top flight in most football fans existence. It will be far easier to get back on track if we're a Premier League Club than if we get relegated and Allardyce gives us a far better chance of doing that than some of the names thrown around.

This. All of it.

There are no principles in football. If selling our souls to the devil means keeping Everton up, great. Because under Unsworth, we're terrible. We're worse than we were under Martinez. We've won three games this season, plus Sunderland in the League Cup. Other supporters will laugh at us whatever we do anyway.
 
Don't have one, but it would depend on what the footy was like and, more importantly, if he was getting the club to where we want it to be. If he comes in I think he'll do good, and also add a bit of character and much-needed backbone.
