Forum and fan leaders should set an example by being positive

[Legend Barry Horne]

Leadership through difficult times is often about staying positive

Comments on here, that the fan negativity seeps into the players and staff have some foundation I think - in fact, it could be that its the massive elephant in the room that's not being addressed

The positivity needs to start from the people running and often frequenting this forum! If the diehard fans have this negative mindset it helps no one

So rather than solely focusing on the likes of 76 year old Bill Kenwright (after a manager and Director of Football already gone), perhaps check yourself and think, how can I make a positive difference here?

It does.
You can visibly see players like Keane and Iwobi getting down with stick.

That said NSNO for a reason.

But you’re so wrong mate. It’s not the fans fault the club is ran horrifically. When Moshiri came in, we were given a blank slate.

Instead of following the ridiculously superb model ran by Liverpool, we decided to throw £500m away by basically creating a portfolio of sheer chaos.

7 years of no direction, knee jerk appointments, zero accountability, and more and more lies is not acceptable.

The fans pay hundreds and thousands each year to watch Everton, and if they’re not happy, we’ll then, maybe we should look at the reasons why… and I’ll give you a clue, it’s not the fans.

Go away with these fan base bashing. It's a meltdown at the moment we're all emotional and worried about the club.

 

[Daytripper]

What ideas do you have to set the tone for the positivity Barry? Any banner ideas for example?

 

[Dymak]

Win a game now and then and you will see some cheer, keep losing to bring about relegation and you won't.

 

[blue to the bone]

Maybe we should all join in and sing songs.
I'll start with always look on the bright side of life.
I nominate @Bungle for the next song

I have loads of positivity in life in general

In the everton part of my life however they seem to be purposely driving it out of me.

I mean Allardyce and Benitez? If youd asked me a few years back what could my football club do to drive me crazy and make me stop watching, i probably couldnt have even imagined the horrors that have come to pass.

At this point they just need to make a "normal" football decision and lots will settle down and get on with supporting the team as we happily have done thru many a crap season and crap team, thank you very much. But positivity whilst you cant trust what move they will make next?

Even if they do make a reasonable choice in the coming days and start getting it right unexpectedly, it will probably be a long time before ill trust the club to not go insane again.

 

[Groucho]

I’m all for being positive but what?

Genuinely question, how high up the ranks are you at Everton?

Back in the day, this reminds me of a post Elstone would place on a forum.

 

[blue to the bone]

To be fair anyone who classes Barry Horne as a legend must be very positive and only see the absolute best in things
