Who Is Your Favourite Everton Manger From The Last 20 Years?

I dont even consider HKIII as a serious matter. It's just his first spell for me.

Possibly you could say that Catterick had it over HK in that he built two titile winning teams whereas HK had basically the same core he used for 85 and 87; however, HK gave us European stature as winners of a trophy.

HK for me.

This is an argument for another thread but Catterick built the greatest Everton side of all time imo.I think from about the early 60's to the 1970 league title that Everton team collected more league points over a 10 year period than highly rated Man United Red Shyte Leeds and Man City teams.

Big Joe...... an Evertonian of charisma, positive outlook and ability tuned to the clubs support and tradition who resigned far too early because of a shifty chairman. Add in he was a winner at places we only dream of now and any contrast with the present incumbent becomes embarrassing.

He took over a side rock bottom and straight away turned over our local rivals who were streets ahead of us. Something Moyes has failed to do time after time. He kept us up comfortably. Something Moyes gets loads of credit for despite the fact the situation Joe took over was far more serious.

The next season he finished sixth with a squad of largely poor footballers.

The season after he was in a poor position when he lost his job. Moyes who was in an equally poor position after his first full season kept his.

Now Joe never lost a derby. Important??? For me it's massive. Joe won two honours giving most Evertonians under 30 the best day of their lives. Important??? For me it's massive.

I'm still not sure how winning FA CUP game after game then beating the best side in the country twice is a fluke though? How many teams in the history of that cup have retained it? Surely then all cup wins are flukes.

Nobody's ever retained the CL in the modern era. Was every win a fluke?

Perhaps I'm the Geoff for advocating winning trophies???

As well as that we failed dismally three times last season to beat an average RS team.Joe Royle took an Everton team to Anfield at a time when Liverpool were title contenders and played them off the park!Throw in the dismantling of Spurs in that FA cup semi final and that bollocks to that anyway with a double L comment on top of all that!It's Joe Royle all the way for me.
