2024/25 David Moyes

[Neiler]

I was thinking it feels like a long time since I've been content with the manager, and then I realised that's because it's actually been three-and-a-half years.

I’m so pleased he’s here and I can start to enjoy Everton again. Dyche and his “football” were just torture, although for his first 18 months we should be grateful.

It’s only a start and I’m careful not to get too carried away by the new manager bounce but even just seeing him in the dugout makes me a lot calmer and positive.

Best post that I have read in ages. Agree totally mate.

 

[Bedfordblue]

Can people stop saying he got sacked.

He quit, cos hes a coward.

More I think about this the more I feel grateful he recognised his shortcomings and bailed out.
Every chance he’d still be here now if not.

Wonder if the pressure / fear of relegating Everton was too much for him.

I reckon it was the players. It certainly sounded like they’d completely downed tools for him. No idea how long that had been for but the atmosphere at training etc must have been brutal and I expect he just had enough of it.

Towards the end of last season, both of them played very well together.

Yes they did. It just means now they’re going to have to play 90 mins every game as the only sub for them is a returning Iroegbunam. Same way Beto will have to play 90 mins every match as there’s no sub for him.

It’s 3 games. I hope as much as anyone is not just new manager bounce, that we play better footy. Today seemed very much same old, gotta admit loved him for most of first stint, but he got a lot to prove till I welcome him back whole heartily personally.
Will never fully forgive him , sour maybe, but that’s how it is.

It's been longer than that for me. Martinez first season? Silva when we had that good end of season run maybe?

It's not being sour mate, it's absolutely understandable. It means you have pride, that's all.

Sickening to see the attacks this feller made on this club being swept under the carpet.

Some people need to go back and read those comments to see how spiteful and vicious they were.

Building a team on 50p for years was probably exhausting.

Pride is a deadly sin.

Moyes did it for 11 years

 

[Rob17896]

Quitting is much more damning than getting sacked. Then again I don’t particularly care as we would have had zero points from our last three league matches with Dyche in charge, so win-win

Best case we would have drawn three, so we have twice the points through not being cowards.

I was reffering to Moyes, never noticed it was Dyche they were talking about in this thread.

Bills “ambition” made him look elsewhere he’d have loved nothing else than taking us the full distance
