Honestly, I just don't get how the Board comes to this conclusion. These people cannot be made of pure idiocy, but somehow here we are. Why you would appoint a manager who since 2016 has won 32% in the Chinese league, finished 18th, 21st, 10th and 13th with Newcastle and who your fanbase despises is quite beyond me.
Aside from the obvious cause for fume due to his association with those across the park (fully justified) sure he had some success at some big clubs - our current situation does not in any way resemble the places he has seen success.
There is zero reason to think Everton under this clown won't resemble the 10th and 13th place finishes at Newcastle.
Truthfully, if our leadership is dysfunctional enough and stupid enough to appoint him there is zero chance they get recruitment right to build an actual squad capable of challenging for things.
I love Everton and will continue to do so (for those who understand the reference I have been a New York Jets fan since the early 80s....supporting teams that break your heart is something I am familiar with). That doesn't mean that the clubs actions in this instance are acceptable. They aren't, not one bit.
It is obvious we have an owner that has no regard for the fanbase and no plan for winning football. The only reason we have seen spending on players and the stadium is that he likes to brag about how much money he spends cause he wants to be viewed as an "important player" in world football.
I got news for you Mosh, idiotic moves like this will make you a laughingstock. There is no way this ends well.
Plus what quality player in his right mind wants to transfer to a mid table side whose fanbase threatens the manager before he even is announced. Recruiting the quality we need is always a challenge, that just got even harder.
What an absolute cluster$%&@
