2023/24 Dele

[allen]

Fair enough but he hasn’t attended any of our games during the rest of the season either.

I can imagine plenty of fans being peed off seeing his face on TV while he’s sat in the stands, too.

I’m not going to judge him or these choices. I don’t know what’s going on.

I just wish him well for the future.

Or maybe he feels like he doesn’t deserve to be part of the lap of appreciation.

He’d have been slated if he’d shown up for a wander and a clap.

Lad can’t win.

It's not a case of winning, I'm just saying it's a shame he wasn't there. I've always been supportive of Dele and held out hope he would turn things around for himself, so don't think that I'm "slating" the lad.

 

[Cels]

He will never play the sport of football again.

I hope he does, Mike.

 

[MikeH72]

I hope he does, Mike.

He will not mate.

Okay, fair enough - this thread is often a pile-on of a guy fighting his own demons. Apologies.

FWIW, I would’ve liked to have seen him there, and I’d like to have seen him get a decent reception.

He was at the Bournemouth game in October.

Ah sound. Nice of him to turn up for a game then I suppose.

No need to apologise, mate. I've seen some nasty posts about the guy, so I understand where you were coming from

Yeah, I think Dele would have got a good send-off from the Goodison fans. It's such a shame how things turned out for him in the end, you never can tell what people are battling with on the inside.

 

[RomanReigns]

Should just send him out on his own v arsenal

In the words of the great Winston Churchill.

"Never on the field of Goodison Park, was so much paid, for so few appearances'.

Couldn't even be arsed turning up for final home game.
Been laughing his head off since we put 2.5 year contract in front of him.

100%. He puts on a good act in public but he's not arsed about football in the slightest, as demonstrated since about 2019. 2026 World Cup squad yeah?

Off the bench on Sunday to score a last minute winner.
