People here are not familiar with me. But in the years I've been following Everton, I've judged managers on how well we go in cup competitions. Provided we're not trying to avoid relegation against expectation, even without being league contenders or having the most talented teams, I think we should have the will to be semi-regular finalists/winners of the minor cup.
Things are possibly a little different with me as I go for the Penrith Panthers (If you're knowledgeable on Australian rugby league). As far as Everton and Carlton go, we're going to have to be patient. The turning circle of an oil tanker.
Aside from Michael Schumacher winning the F1 championship, 1995 was a cracking year. Carlton and Everton winning. I don't want to be presumptuous about you, but I'm a total nutjob for The Corrs, and they released Forgiven, Not Forgotten a few days before Carlton won the AFL grand final.
