New Everton Manager

[roy vernon]

Anything less than winning the league while playing football like the 1970 Brazil team and he can get fecked off.

No matter who the manager is unless there is large movement during the summer then they're stuffed really with the squad we have.

5 I guess

I genuinely loathe him more than anyone else in football, but if I think about it it's generally because of how much of a complete jizz rag he was when he was at Liverpool. The meal snub which spurned nearly 40 years of Merseyside tradition, the small club stuff, the general arrogance and just him using every opportunity to throw veiled digs in etc

The whole problem is that I'm sure this got Liverpool fans on board, but it's done at the expense of other clubs. He did it with Chelsea too and look how they treated him. You can't suddenly expect to be welcomed with open arms after you've gone down that road. Live by the sword... etc

So winning games, trophies etc just wouldn't cut it. I can't articulate exactly what it would be that he'd need to do, but it would need to be more than that.

If he won at Anfield and celebrated by planting an Everton flag on the pitch in front of the Kop, lifting his shirt to reveal a tattoo of our badge covering his ample belly and followed it up by knocking at my front door, on his knees asking for my approval, I reckon that might just about thaw the ice.

Realistically though, I don't see how it happens

Totally forgot about the meal snub.

Houllier and Moyes did it and Benitez then jibbed Moyes invite didn’t he.

For the young bhoys Lukaku is the only world class player we've seen mate.

It was an absolute pleasure watching the bloke - nothing better than having a genuine elite level striker leading the line.

Rodriguez?

Yup. We’ll be kicking around mid table again unless there’s some serious reinforcements.

He must have had an excuse, there is no way that Benitez is missing a meal.

He thought the table service at the previous one was terrible.

The meal thing goes back an awful lot longer than Houllier and Moyes

I was at an LMA dinner many years ago when Moyes was asked about this (company I worked for were involved on the sponsorship side of the LMA - effectively it was part of my job to get clients to attend dinners and we'd have a couple of speakers from the LMA there as well as speakers about work stuff)

Sticks out particularly in my mind as Moyes mentioned that Kenwright had told him that Paisley invited Gordon Lee out for dinner and he believed it had been going on ever since

He was the only manager who didn’t accept an invitation from moyes I believe

Can you see what butty that is? Just so we can pre-warn Simon to get extra stock in ready for his arrival.

The longer this goes the more I feel we are waiting on someone in the Euros.

Surely Nuno and Benitez would have been done by now.
