Everton Are The Least Interesting Team In The Football League

Not open for further replies.
I beg to differ.

Couple of years ago I seen someone drop his pie during the game, told his mate he’s still eating it he then proceeded to try and pick it up, fell forward and knocked out a tooth. Amazingly he still finished his pie and celebrated. Most interesting thing I’ve ever seen at a game.
 
You can accuse Everton football club of being many things but boring is not one of them, ffs there's never a dull moment supporting us! Half our fans have full blown meltdowns after every single negative result or go the other way into hysteria after every single big win! They'll rant and rave about winning the league after a couple of wins but then do a complete 180 and start screeching hysterically about relegation dogfights and the manager needing the sack two games later! Its like we're supporting a club where half the fanbase are bipolar. Being a blue is anything but boring!
 
119 seasons in the top flight, which is 11 more than any other team. Only missed 4 seasons since the league began. 68 consecutive seasons in top division.

Lower division trophies and playoff wins are 'meh' compared to playing the top teams in your country every week.
 
Had a bit of spare time in work and thought 'i wonder if there is a more dull club than us'.
We haven't won anything for 25 years, we never achieve anything, but we don't ever go in to full melt down either!
We just sit there, not really doing anything....its like footballing purgatory.
Anyway here is the list of when the last time every club in the league achieved something.
Only Oldham have gone longer without actually doing something (promotion, win a play off, a cup etc)
But Oldham have been relegated in that time, so there ahas been a significance!
Everton officially the most 'meh' club in England

Who were you talking about again? Oh them.
 

119 seasons in the top flight, which is 11 more than any other team. Only missed 4 seasons since the league began. 68 consecutive seasons in top division.

Lower division trophies and playoff wins are 'meh' compared to playing the top teams in your country every week.
And rarely winning:)

I am certain Man U regretted their fairly recent time in the second division as they enjoyed the Alex Ferguson years. 'This is all well and good, but if only we could have played as much top flight football as Everton.'
 
Utter baloney to think we're the least interesting team. It's almost spin from a RS.

The last 20 odd years, yes we are really no great shakes. We are predictable. We talk the talk but don't walk the walk. We flatter to deceive. Last season started great and finished 10th. You know that 9 times out of 10 in the big game we don't win.

We're not at the level I aspire to. Leicester seem far better run than us as a club.

But football clubs come in waves and cycles. Even the RS didn't win the league for 30 years. We've been down at the end of the 20's after Dixie's 60 and we came back. We were down in the 50's and came back in the 60's. The 80's we were second only to them in honours and probably Man Utd in stature.

Sadly since then we've fallen massively. Time to wake this sleeping giant. Trouble is it's Groundhog Day.
 
Not sure you can describe us as dull, I think if you described us as the most depressing club in football I would have been all over that. Dull not sure describes us properly, losers is another one I could have got on board with!

I agree with you there mate.

What’s for tea ?
 

I am certain Man U regretted their fairly recent time in the second division as they enjoyed the Alex Ferguson years. 'This is all well and good, but if only we could have played as much top flight football as Everton.'
Wow - it's a proud record of being good enough to play in the top flight for so long. Why you gotta make fun of it?
 
Here we go again. Another round of Evertonian self-loathing. Is it any wonder we are stuck in an endless loop of self fulfilling mediocrity. We think we are **** so we are ****. Right?

Get the bleach down yer and keep the faith.
