A foot in the door?
A place players would want to come for the chance of CL football?
Global exposure?

We may not get there, but if we hope to become a team that challenges for the league/CL competition consistently you have to start somewhere.

I just don't think we've got the right people at the helm (Bobby aside) to exploit a CL campaign and improve our predicament in any noticeable way. We'd only be outspent heavily the following season by the team we usurped and struggle to become a genuine CL team.

Call me a pessimist, but that's just what happens when you follow Everton.
 
Can't believe anyone would want to finish 5th just to bloody the sh^te's noses.
Surely we go out to win every match, and want to finish as high as possible ?
 
Gotta be 5th.

Nobody would hear the end of it otherwise.

North Korea would launch their nukes from the sheer aggravation caused from being repeatedly reminded by them of their title win, resulting in a third World War, causing the deaths of many loved ones.

I can't and won't put my family in that position. Would you?

I'm not saying you're wrong like...your scenario is a likely one. However, this Bobby lid seems to have something about him.
 

Oh and the lads who voted lose are bad bad tits

4th place and CL football for this club is huge
 


sorry lads, but i just will never understand your viewpoint in a million years.


5th for me im afraid fourth would be great but were never going to win the champions league so if we can stop them winning the league im in.

*cringes*


Thing is. What's so bad about Europa? I'd love to be in it. People talk about the financial importance but likely Man U, Spurs and Arsenal will spend and we'll be out within a season. Why not have a real go at winning the Europa? Surely that's MORE ambitious. That's my point. We go from Champs League qualifier to Europa League group stage, they go from 2nd or 3rd to title winners. It's a big trade off.

I've got a lot of time for your posts, RBJ...but in this one I'm just flabbergasted at your stance. I know you're not on the wind-up...but still...just dumbstruck.

NIL SATIS NISI OPTIMUM, lad.


we need song like YNWA

That thread was an abomination.


That is not really bitter. That is just not wanting your rivals to win the league.

At the expense of the team you support...I'm afraid that is the definition of bitter, mate.

The argument of wanting us to lose (under any circumstance) aside, I do think 4th is slightly overrated, with respect to Everton.

Don't get me wrong, I'd jizz like a fountain if we finished 4th, but what does it bring? We'd be battered by most of the top CL teams and the money? Well, I just don't trust the current Everton regime to be honest. If we got £20m of CL money, how much of that would we really see turn into signings?
Players like Lukaku who want to play in CL & better loans from teams who want their young players to get that experience
