    I just wish we'd known he was the Messiah before Easter... Everton that.

    Consider the quality of the three relegated teams last season and compare them to Burnley, Sheffield Utd. and Luton, we should be out of sight.

    Even with the points deduction, we should be well out of the reach of Burnley, Sheffield Utd. and Luton. This is the poorest top flight table in years.

    Haha, I'd forgotten that too. Mind you I'll probably get away with being off topic when I'm talking to the boss.

    Have to agree to disagree, it was appalling before Christmas, but just about bearable as we were getting some points. Since mid December it has been as bad as anything I have seen over a sustained period In 60 years watching Everton. We are a torture to watch and then we have to endure Dyche...

    It's progressive though, he has totally lost his way here in the last 4 months, it's impossible to say definitively why, but, my guess is that it is a mixture of other teams sussing us out and Dyche being unable to come up with a plan B, preferring to just do the same thing week after week in...

    No, it's not pretty Dan, I don't think it will keep us up either and that's when it becomes unacceptable. I've said all along that at least he is a better manager than the two before him, but, after the past four months, I'm not so sure that he is. I will say one thing though, he is pretty...

    I see where you're coming from, but, to be fair, we could have prime Cafu in the squad and he wouldn't be able to attack in Dyche's system where full backs can never be more than 10 yards away from a centre back for more than 5 minutes a game. If Dyche isn't winning it is very difficult to put...

    You're correct, it's not fickle, it's a disgrace.

    That may well be ok at Burnley mate. But, not here. Apart from the football, he is such a a stubborn, arrogant, egotistical bell, he really just is never going to be a good fit here. Even if he keeps us up. I really hope that whoever is in charge next season, launches him.

    I couldn't like him any less mate, even if I tried.

    How about the table where his only win in the past 4 months was against Burnley, who played a quarter of the game with 10 men and we only won that one with a fluke goal? Does that mean he's fortunate to be in the dugout?

    I was actually thinking about that goal with all the 29 passes before my last post, but, I'm inclined to think that the goal was in spite of, rather than because of Dyche. The reason I said he had improved the team was because he had removed the lethargy. I tried very hard to give him a chance...

    The only thing his football in the early season had about it was that he had them all running about like lunatics, closing down and pressing. Once you looked beyond that it was terrible. Doucoure playing as a number 10, the full backs played so narrow that they could almost hold hands with the...
