I was thinking recently, what must being a Man United fan really feel like right now, especially a 30-something 90's kid Man United fan like I would be

Honestly, though it would be galling to be seeing Liverpool and City do so well, at least I'd have plenty of happy memories to fall back on

I don't think I'd be going OTT and protesting etc

But then again regular success is something I can only dream of as an Evertonian, so maybe I'd have a different view if I'd grown up with my club winning stuff all the time only now to have it taken away?

It's like how James say in Sit Down, "If I hadn't seen such riches I could live with being poor"

I dont really think its got a lot do with how the oil rig and the victims are doing tbh , its more to do with how we are performing ourselves we have been very poor especially last season was awful , the football was dreadful and the spirit of the team and organization was dreadful . i hope ten hag can give us our pride back and get the club moving forward despite our parasite owners , we have no divine right to success and what others do we cannot control , they have better teams than us at the moment and we need to concentrate on ourselves

Or a 40 something Everton fan.

He would have got slaughtered in 95/96 as well for playing the Class of 92, even more than he did at the time (Hansen's view was the majority view at the time)

Ferguson was one of the rarest of managers in that he backed himself and he usually got it right

With chairmen being more trigger happy and managers being less risk averse, I don't think we'll ever see a Class of 92 winning the double in 96 scenario ever again

I think you are spot on.

I hate to say this, but Klopp is probably one of the few managers who has a touch of the Ferguson.

Are you talking about us Evertonians who can actually remember when we were a force in the 80s? To some extent, it's why so many fans are frustrated.

Ferguson won 38 trophies at Utd.
Klopp has won 3 plus an asterisk at the RS it the faintest of touch it would seem.

I mean in style and influence. There won’t be another Ferguson in terms of dominance and success at one club.

For what it’s worth, I think Ferguson would have no chance against Klopp or Pep. In football terms they are far ahead of him.
 

Well I must say that I’m a massive fan of Ten Haag ball and the ETH Way. I’d say I hope it stays around for a long time however at this rate I think it’ll be gracing the championship next season
