Clue me up on Cottee here la, he's scored 99 goals for us and he's seen as a proper let down from what i've noticed, there's 8 people in the history of this club that can point to a better return than that.

What's the beef la, WHY?!

He was the most expensive player in Britain at that time, scored a hattrick on his debut and people were very excited. But he couldn't live up to the expectations.

I liked him very much but after you've been 1st or 2nd for the last 3 seasons finishing 8th with 54 points was a let down.

Start of our steady slide:
86/87: 86 points (42 games)
87/88: 70 (40 games)
88/89: 54
89/90: 59
90/91: 51

91/92: 53 (42 games)
92/93: 53 (42 games)
93/94: 44 (42 games)
94/95: 50 (42 games)
95/96: 61
96/97: 42
97/98: 40
98/99: 43
99/00: 50
00/01: 42
01/02: 43


Ones in bold were 38 game seasons
 

We played Coventry away next game after his debuts e won 1-0 , I remember seeing Bobby Robson who was then the England manager, outside the ground and we were all asking him had he come to give Cottee the once over?.
The Evertonians were of the opinion Cottee and Sharpie didn't get on with each other, don't know if that was true like.
 

It was gel out of a tub in them days lad.
