Watching whats happening is making me re-live what happened at City all those years ago

A chairman who hasnt a clue, has stayed long after he shouldve gone.
Big money wasted time after time on dross
A crumbling stadium.
Players that seemingly dont care
Bad managerial appointments , one after the other

I see thus ending only one way

An incompetent but stubborn ego at the very top, who everyone else has well and truly sussed, never ends well for any organisation
City under Swales, Rome under Nero, this country under Johnson and Truss, absolutely fucked
 
It just goes to show with everton, that spending money is the easy bit. Theyve spent a hell of a lot of money on utter pap

People go on about city just spending, and how easy it is when you can buy anyone u like.
But actually, spending is easy peasy, its buying the right players (right in many ways) thats the very hard bit

Yep - spending money is only half the battle. It's how well you spend it as well. We've seen this with United over the best part of the last decade and we've seen it with Everton over the past 5 or 6 years.

To be fair, some of Everton's managerial appointments and player signings didn't look too bad at the time but for whatever reason nothing seems to have worked out. I'd also say that they were unlucky with Ancelotti - he was the one who finally seemed to have them going places and if he hadn't gone back to Real Madrid, I reckon they'd be in a much better position now.

Usmanov being sanctioned has obviously added a huge amount to their problems and at this point you have to wonder whether relegation might be the best thing for them so they can start afresh. Their fans might not see it that way but I'll guarantee they'll have a better laugh following Everton in the Championship for a season or two.

I'd agree re the championship for the laughs and experience but I reckon if we got relegated we'd stay there for a few seasons or more. Most of the current squad would leave for certain, and under the current outlook it's hard to see a player wanting to go to goodison to further their career
So your left with the deadwood and mercenaries who will bleed the club on decent wages and contracts. Hard to see any reconciliation between board and fans currently if at all. Something has to give and these are dark days ahead.
