Everton Thread - 2022/23

Just keep a fucking clean sheet on Saturday.

will fuckin try

My guess is that Dyche will just about keep them up by sheer bloody-minded, all hands to the pumps football. They will then be in the same situation as now by next November, at which time the circus will start all over again. Fans demonstrating, Board staying away, Moshiri open letter to fans, etc etc.

The club seems to be in chaos from top to bottom.

And as bad as that all is, I strangely do miss those days with City.

Not that I’d want them back, mind haha

I hope they get relegated unless Dyche starts his first game in charge with earning a fucking point at least.
they are hosting Arsenal in few days, so what a good opportunity to impress the fans. :)

 

[stan bowles]

I think he'll keep them up. Won't be pretty but he'll make them much harder to beat. They should already be planning for their next manager for the start of 2024-25.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

I’ll reserve judgement until he can prove this by getting a result against Le Arse on Sat…

Oh sure, except that I think we're placing the bar pretty high expecting Dyche to make a major impact in his very first game at what has been a club in crisis for years now. I hope he will, I really do. But I don't expect it as of right. Over the long term, I'm pretty sure Dyche will do a good job.
Everton have more resources than Burnley will ever have, and let's face it they've got a bigger support base. He performed something like a miracle at Turf Moor, whether you like the style of football they played or not. He doesn't need to do that at Goodison.

Surely they should be after a Pochettino or a Tuchel. New stadium, large club and should be ambitious!

Unai Emery would have probably worked for them.

They probably can't see beyond trying to stay up this season.

 

[shackattack]

Being very optimistic I think we can get possibly 20+ points from our remaining 18 games. Think it's going to be very close again this season

'The Glory Days' a mate of mine calls them.
Never a dull moment, that's for sure

The Wimbledon game is the one that always gets mentioned but I was more nervous with the Coventry game in 98 when we only stayed up on goal difference. 18 months later Johnson sold the club to Kenwright and the rest is history

I was at that game. I had to explain to my visiting Aussie relatives that no, pitch invasions were not a normal thing at Goodison Park.

And now, just 25 short years later, you will be doing the same again. That's progress :)

That's the very thing. There was never a dull moment.

In those days as there was no Internet, Everton had recorded 2 messages for their Clubcall service - one if we survived and one if we was relegated. Johnson had a police escort in the directors box. We've gone forward not one iota !

We're consistent if nothing else !!

 

[moomba]

He's been brought in to escape relegation.

He may do.

IMO Everton would be better off relegated and fixing the club than staying up and limping along with someone like Dyche in charge.

It's just delaying the inevitable.

 

[KS55]

Old git I am. My hero as a kid was Bob Latchford. If we make no signings I think we will drop. They have finally announced that we have a manager though lol

My Everton mate used to say that Bob Latchford was deadly from two yards.

There’s a large and mean ginger cat who menaces my cat sometimes and he reminds me of a feline Dyche.

We’re going to keep having repeats of this relegation battle fun and games until Kenwright and Moshiri both fuck off. Almost makes me miss the days when we had little money.

 

[mexico1970]

First job is to fuck the arse over, intimidate Captain Black and make his team shit the bed,

 

[malg]

They'll be after Vinnie if Dyche keeps them up
