New Everton Manager

[Steve Wigan]

Dave Hickson didn't manage them! He was also about 30 years before my time!

I don't really care what you think about the appointment anyway, why would that change what I think about it? (that sounds a lot more confrontational than it's meant to be by the way).

I honestly don't get the people trying to change my (or other peoples) mind on this. Good for you if you are going to be OK with it. I am not. That's OK though I have options. I don't have to just sit there and take it like a drone, I can do something else with my time if I have to.

And I would defend your right to do whatever you like as long as it doesn't hurt others, its all about opinions and without differeing opinions football wouldn't be the great game it is.

There is garbage like that on twitter every single microsecond, every single day.

A threat like that is / should be a criminal offence - hope they catch them.

 

[RomanReigns]

so my thoughts are announce it on tuesday evening, get the initial fume out of the way and the backlash then distract everyone with the England v Germany game

either way the headlines will be about England and not about Everton

Comical as usual.

You already confirmed you were actively willing him to take the job on the basis you thought the 3 bed sheets tied outside Goodison was too much of a protest on Saturday night.

I've renamed you Dave "3 sheets" K

The new Hollywood blockbuster "3 bedsheets outside of Goodison, Liverpool"

 

[PaddyJames]

Are we not the fan base that uses the death of Juventus fans to score points against Liverpool?

How is that relevant to leaving signs up calling him fat, wishing him to go to hell then leaving threatening signs outside the mans house?

 

[Azza]

False flag bed sheets. Probably Kopites themselves that have done that to stir trouble.

Make it 4 sheets after the death threat.

I don’t think top level football managers care about the criticism of an odd few fans. They get booed week in week out. I doubt Benitez even gives one about the banners.

Bit different when it lands on your doorstep though.

 

[chrissyjack]

Won’t be surprised if NO manager wants to come , now . Must think the fanbase consists of rampant loons

Wouldn’t put it past them really would you?

Yeah, that 11m a year will soften the blow

As mentioned elsewhere, as a ploy i dont see how more offensive this is than seeing banners at Goodison or planes flying overhead - because apart from the nonsense about knowing where people may or may not live, the sentiment is the same.

He should be nowhere near our club.

So, if somebody put a banner to get you sacked at your place of work, that would be the same as somebody coming to your house with a mental statement basically saying that they will physically harm you if you don't resign.

it does? That's why you wouldn't bother with a Howe-type appointment. You need someone who would dominate it the other way, like Galtier, Conte or Mancini.

 

[Connor]

Fair play to the head the balls doing a banner saying we know where you live, but not knowing where he lives

 

[Death]

We always win when its most unlikely or go on a run. Things never happen normally at Ev. There are many signs I keep picking up that this will end up a good appointment.
