New Everton Manager

[Papa Shango]

How about Amanda Holden, Sly Stallone or that WWE wrestler who claims to support us have we checked their views on the matter to help us make up our minds? He's just another fan, you might as well quote @ForeverBlue92 or @Papa Shango 's views about it.

I would batter Bellow.

Holden may cause me problems.

Dave I do not care now who our manager will be, I just want us to win come what may.

I wouldn't have wanted Benitez in a month of Sundays. He has a determined and ruthless streak though and I'd rather have him than Moyes or a cone layer.

 

[davids]

So this is what we have been reduced to.

Nuno binned us off for Spurs and we end up with Benitez.

We might as well have just got Joey Barton in, he'd be equally as useless, but at least some of the fanbase could perhaps get behind him on a good day.

Shocking contempt from the Board for the Fans.

Even Agent Johnson not looking so bad now.

"I didn't want to be disrespectful to the club. I was talking about the way they were playing, not the club,"

And to be fair to him, we've turned up and bent over at Analfield for years and years - looking to scrape a draw. Only Carlo has recently vanished that voodoo.

So, while he may have been actually having a dig at the club, was his assessment really unfair? We didn't go there with confidence like a big club.

He will put a rocket up Brands arse if he dosent get what he wants, which is what we have needed for years.

Thank goodness Carlo got that win there and we dont face the ignominy of that run of no wins there ended by Benitez...you can imagine the media and the Kopite script with that one.

I'll give it till Christmas.

Any other manager would get the following Christmas.

He knows what he has to do; if he does it, fine. If he doesn't he's gone.

I wonder why others aren't similarly assuaged over this matter.

He called us a small club? Yes. We've had owners who treated as (and made us) a small club...I reserve my fury for those people.

I'm more angry at Moshiri and Brands than I am at Benitez. Why wouldn't he take it, it's tons of money and a short commute, he knows he'll get a juicy pay off when it goes tits up. It's not just the small club thing, it's his continued reverence of the RS (look on his social media channels an all you'll see is RS pictures, they were being posted whilst he was Newcastle manager, ffs), the fact he is a tactical dinosaur, the fact he knacked off into semi-retirement in China, the fact that he blames fans, owners, anybody but himself when things start to go wrong, the fact that his appointment underlines the contempt for which the board holds for the fans and on and on.

That's why it's not assuaged, it's because this act has finally severed any sense of connection between the club and I beyond a commercial arrangement. You could argue that I have been naïve in thinking that that wasn't severed previously, and maybe you're right, but there it is. It isn't really about Benitez, it certainly isn't about an opposition manager seeking to curry favour with their cult-like fans by insulting a rival, it's about what the club's values are and the esteem (or lack of) they hold for their fans.

 

[sheedys left foot]

This appointment just makes zero sense.

a manager who’s teams play awful football and is already hated by the fans. How on earth do the board think that’s is a good idea? I can’t get my head around it

 

[windymiller]

I always go for the forelock smash.

Have you spent time in the North East?

 

[davek]

He will put a rocket up Brands arse if he dosent get what he wants, which is what we have needed for years.

Hopefully he gets shut of Brands for us.

 

[peteblue]

can someone photoshop Benitez's head onto Lord Voldemort's for me. Thanks

When this goes wrong and Moyes is sacked from West Ham, Moyes is nailed on our next manager. I'm so sure about that that I think I'm going to place a bet.

My disillusionment came under the Kenwright years and the lack of direction of the club - governance that took us away from the elite of the game - so my anger is by this stage minimal in that respect.

It's just business for these people.

He fell out with Ronaldo at madrid and other good players.

Im literally at the bottom of the barrell looking for pluses. Its dark and damp in here.
