Everton Today

[mickd1961]

That Everton side of the mid 80’s was as good a side as you’d see for class football and entertainment.

They remind me a bit of us, they didn’t build from a posit of strength.

One of my staff is a massive Everton fan, goes home and away, they know how to suffer just like we do.

What made me laugh was NO ONE said that Everton "parked the bus", or "This isn't football". When we played exactly the same way we got those comments. If a team is a "favourite" then its ok. I had to smile. "Its what you have to do when you come to Anfield and you don't have as much quality" (Carragher) (Unless its West Brom of course.)

Managers in the last 6 years listed below. See any similarities between our plight and there’s?

No one will persuade me that changing Managers on average every 12 months or so is a good business plan. Once you start changing Managers this regularly there is only one way you are going, just ask Watford and many others.

Great post Yarm. Instant success only comes if you throw shed loads of money at it. We don't have that option, so you make a damn good choice and stick with it.
