Duncan Ferguson the coach

Another one just like Rooney....panned for no reason other than supports us, or that local lad thing...even the technically he is not local....ffs ya know what i mean.

Ross too.

Davies also......

It certainly seems to be a trend in modern football or is it just evertonians who seem to be overly critical of the locals/lads with connections to the club.
 
Now while I don’t have a problem with Duncan retaining his role I think this is a reasonable view.

Unsworth was given a go after all.


I would keep him myself. He’s been praised by playing staff.

Maybe he doesn't want to be a manager, maybe he hasn't been offered because he enjoys his current role. Plus being a good coach doesn't necessarily translate to being a good manager. Who knows, he must be doing something right I guess.
 
If he's such a good coach that he outperforms all those he's sat alongside - and who have been sacked - why isn't he a manager...or considered for the manager's job here?

If we're saying that DF is like Fred the doorman and Jimmy the kitman - old retainers kept by the club out of a sense of duty and nostalgia - then ok. But please let's not claim he's there on merit. He clearly isn't.

Many good coaches have failed as managers, you can be a good coach and have no interest in management.

He wants to be Everton manager mate.
 

Bet you this thread will go missing when Marco wins us all the trophies.

Laughable that fat lads on the internet are having a pop at Unsy and Duncan.

Hope we get relegated.
How will Marco winning us trophies impact on this subject?

The only thing that would bring more strength of conviction, would be the backlash from fans if both were sacked by a foreign director of football with no historic ties to the club, will never happen in my opinion, why purposely poke a bear.
 
Huh?

Oh, so he only gets the flak when things go wrong, but when things go right, he has nothing to do with it?

I get you Dave.
No, I mean how will you be able to say it'd pipe critics down if someone who's been through a few unsuccessful regimes suddenly becomes part of a successful one? Surely the conclusion you'd reach is that it doesn't follow that he's had impact.
 

Might just be doing a good job,3 managers have kept him so I think he must be doing more than putting comes out.

( a) Bet you this thread will go missing
(b) Marco wins us all the trophies

I suspect that given the unlikelihood of (b), the veracity of (a) is likely to remain untested.
