Marco Silva

Correct. We might be in the gutter now but at last we're looking at the stars again.

Silva is as good as it gets right now.

True mate, gives us hope at least...Oscar Wilde and S club on the same page here

Wonder if we will or want another manager

Might force our hand to get another manager if we can't agree compensation.

Indeed mate. What’s FS upto? lol

Interesting.

First off, let me say that I come in peace as a Watford fan.

I too cannot get my head around how we have entered this complaint now after we have sacked him. However, all the stories in the media say the same - we complained to the PL at the time and they asked us and yourselves to sort it out between us and they would get involved if that wasn’t successful. It’s obviously come out now because that’s exactly what has happened.

I ask you this - if Everton did nothing wrong, and we have no evidence of anything, why did members of your board meet ours? Why have they made offers which we have rejected? I’m sure it’s not just out of the kindness of Mr Moshiri’s heart.

You say you won’t pay us. I bet you will. And I bet there’s a cursory statement apologising for ‘misunderstanding’ on your part whilst probably not accepting liability. But any payment will say different on that part.

It’s all got very messy and regrettable.

Finally, WFC go through managers like hot dinners. The fans over here aren’t exactly keen on that being something we are known for and hope it stops. But I’ve seen plenty of you saying that we don’t have a leg to stand on because of that - you have had as many managers as us since we have been in the PL. Your situation on that front is just as much of a mess as ours has been.

Fair points mate. Moshiri will give you a few shilling, pat Watford on the head and let them run off to the nearest sweet shop.

You know, new managerial appointments are usually met with a lot of excitement.


Would looooove to know what this guy has that makes him such a massively better option than a lot of managers who have a better reputation available as well..

He's a maverick, he suffer's no fools....and he won't answer to 'the man', no way...

And if he doesn't want to wear a certain suit then - DAMN - he won't wear that suit.

He also has nice hair.

This is the better part of his CV.

 

[Lord Buckethead]

We should be aiming so much higher than this weak minded Portuguese charlatan.

At worst Sam would have got us 7th. This guy is just a dice roll in the dark.

If we’ve made a illegal approach then Yearh it’s compo but it’s silly I think as it’s not going to change a thing to either club. It’s history now and we both move forwards.

Part of me agrees with that and I’d like to see an end to the whole saga.

However, I agree you are a bigger club than us. I’m not debating that point. But I’m sure it’s important that it’s highlighted if you’ve done something wrong so it sets a precedent. If we just said nothing, that just gives the green light for bigger clubs to start unsettling the rest of the league at will.

Can someone tell me why they think Silva is decent, I'm finding it hard to get excited about a manger who got relegated and then sacked for free falling down the table.

 

[matty1878]

It shouldn't work like that, I agree, but it's whats happened, potentially something to do with his contract. I imagine more information will come out soon.

It’s odd, I mean we wanted to pay for him you didn’t want it and now we want him you do

Look at the bigger picture mate

 

[ReiRei]

I think Eddie Howe would be a great manager, he's also a boyhood Evertonian, he's taken Bournemouth as far as he can.

Take a look at his overall managerial history, not just what happened at Hull and Watford would be my suggestion.

 

[Youorns84]

Good points but the other concern is that a long drawn out saga will impact the shorter transfer window plans this summer when we raid Watford ..haha

Do you really believe that we will do business with you for our better players when there will undoubtedly be the same money on the table from bigger clubs?

No chance.

 

[Youorns84]

Watford, with their track record of binning managers are now playing the victim. Hope they get relegated.

The irony on this message being posted 5 minutes before you sacked your manager, which brings the total managers you’ve gone through since we have been in the PL to exactly the same as us.

We go through managers. But you are proving just as bad.

Not even close.
