New Everton Manager

[maccavennie]

He won't though.

Of course he won't mate. There's not one person inside that club with any balls whatsoever to say "enough is enough and this simply isn't acceptable for Everton Football Club".

Once this goes through, every single one of them are responsible for putting this club right on its arse.

If Rafael has the balls to bring in his own crew and genuinely tries to change the culture, I can get behind him.

I doubt it though and not until then.

 

[Oasis1878]

Just get the motto off the badge, totally embarrassing from this club once again

 

[gwladysnight]

is it not strange that none of the managers he worked under have not called the club out for forcing them to keep him?

Probably because they realise that calling out Duncan isn't going to endear them to the fanbase.

Exactly correct, they'll have to clean out the whole first team coaching staff after this mess. @davek might finally get what he's been after for years!

Ferguson is becoming the managerial equivalent of Kenwright where he's just empty symbol and seems desperate to retain a position at club. That same mentality resulted with an unqualified Moshiri acquiring our club.

He's a bit like Terry macdermot at Newcastle lol the black box

Those managers won’t have heard of him before working with him, you think it was their idea?

would be interestig to hear D King's view of the Everton hierarchy at the moment. Two weeks ago he reports that it's all done for Nuno, and then radio silence. Fast forward to now, and we met Benitez ten days ago, and still nothing. Thing is becoming utterly farcical.

A truly dark day in the history of Everton Football Club.

The board should be utterly ashamed of themselves if as we expect, it's Moshiri who's forced this decision through.

And of those four members of the board, if any of them were not in agreement with this inane decision to appoint Benitez, then they should do the honourable thing and resign their positions and that especially goes for the Chairman.

They are supposed to be the custodians of this club, there to do the very best they can on behalf of the only people to whom the club means everything - the supporters.

Speaking purely personally, I cannot believe that other than Moshiri any of the four board members honestly and truly thinks appointing Benitez is the very best that could have been done.

It's incomprehensible to me that they think either collectively or individually that it will not split the fan base, and at a time when the fan base really needs to be 100% (or as near to that nirvana as we can be) behind a new coach/manager.

William Ralph Dean, John Moores, Harry Catterick, Brian Labone, Alex Young, Bally, Howard Kendall, Gordon West and so, so many other Everton greats sadly no longer with us will be spinning in their graves at what has become of the club they enriched with their actions, glories and successes.

King knows nothing....as usual.

 

[Lanolin]

Well I was still holding out some hope that they may have been stringing Benitez along but that hope appears to have been extinguished. I have absolutely no interest in seeing how much of a disaster this turns into so I’ll see you all in a few months when he’s gone. #MambaOut

 

[Kris75]

IF Benitez is given the job, I fully expect to try and log on and get an error #40098798654 (unknown error due to fume)

My point is that none have said they were forced to employ him after they had been sacked/left. Btw i think he should move on.

The thing is, we sold our soul to Moshiri. There is no chance of resignations or accountability because they own the club lock stock and barrel.

There was a reason Arsenal's shareholders wanted nothing to do with our owners.

As a manager, why would you admit to Bill imposing members of your coaching staff on you.
