You have to take into account the situation with Roma.

They have obviously been keeping a close eye on Everton but unable to make any official changes.

Whereas at Roma, they have sacked a icon, picked a scapegoat as manager who struggled instantly then backtrack quickly to install a club favourite.

I think they thought given how badly we have been run, Dyche has done well and despite how terrible we play, he has done well.

So I think they thought he will be fine for the short term then in the summer we'll make our move, just like they did with Roma after the sacking Fonseca despite finishing 5th and getting to the Semi-Finals.

Now we are entering a real problem, we have just been taken over and the plan A is failing quickly. Dyche needs wins and this FA Cup game might be the catalyst BUT he has to find the formula.
Done well 3 wins in 19 🤣🤣🤣🤣
 

The new owners are sending out all the right signals about facing down the noisy discontents.

If they back Dyche with some signings and we climb the table they'll see that as an important line in the sand drawn regarding being railroaded by the pitchforkers who ruled the roost in the Moshiri era.
They won’t be backing him With signings
They will be loans for 6 months, they ain’t wasting big money of players he wants
 
Your argument is lost on me.

That's the football club. That's their appalling strategy. They've been an amateurish outfit for years.

However not changing manager now is utter folly. They're risking the safety of the club by saying it is safe in the hands of this dinosaur.

Bit like setting fire to your house then returning to it with the fire brigade to put the fire out.

Mad.
I think our policy of mid season changes when our backs are against the wall is more likely to get us relegated in the long run than holding our nerve until the end of the season when we can make a more measured decision.
How long is it before we are giving the last three months to the likes of Jesse Marsch or Remmi Garde.
Hold our nerve, break the cycle of chasing out tail and come up with a plan.

Do you believe he can orchestate at least 1 shot on target in 90 minutes going forward? I'll then happily agree with you.
 
Should give Moyes a 2-3 year contract and a chance to succeed. If he doesn’t just replace him but we can’t go on with Dyche.

Look at the league table, then look at it again, then again, until it sinks in.

We don't score goals. The only team that scores less than us is rock bottom of the table.

We aren't getting out of the relegation zone once we're in it.

We either go down as we are now, and under Dyche we're not even fighting, we're just setting up to not 'lose' every single game.

Is that how you want us to go down, like a team that is too scared to even attack other teams?

If we go down, we go down fighting, get rid of Dyche and put in a manager who will let the fans have hope going in to each game.

I get you're point about a revolving door of managers which happened under Moshiri, he pulled the trigger on some cases far too quickly, managers weren't allowed time to build squads and we ended up with an abomination of about six managers / two DOF'S differing players all stuck in the same squad. I said as much myself. But since Ancellotti left us in the lurch, we have had Benitez had to go the fans turned on him, Lampard, the fans were turning on him we were in desperate danger of relegation, had to go. We have now reached the same breaking point with Dyche, the fans have turned on him, we are in desperate danger of relegation, everyone knows he is a dead man walking, he has ran out of ideas, the football we play is atrocious and we can not score a goal to save our lives. Something has to change, the question is can we risk relegation to let him run down his contract ? I don't think so, the players are not stupid they know he's gone at the end of the season at the latest, he's admitted they didn't listen to him last week and be honest what decent player would want to sign for us with the club in danger of going down, knowing the manager is a dead Duck ? Better cut our losses and pull the trigger, but only for the right manager, the Friedkins have experience in these matters and we must trust their judgement, after all its their money at stake, they are not daft.

It's a loaded stat because he hasn't lost 16 games.

He came in after two of the worst Everton managers ever plus the worst board EVER then add a point deduction.

Don't get me wrong I am not a Dyche fan but you're a fool if you can't appreciate what he has done for the club despite this current season.

We definitely would have been relegated and most definitely crashed into adminstration so thank your stars it didn't come to that.

That was last season mate and yes I agree who done brilliantly last year, but he was always a stop gap in my opinion and time moves on. We as a team have regressed terribly this year and are in a dire spot in the league, the football is awful, painful to watch and we don't hardly ever look like scoring a goal, he has to go.
 

What's going on?

Is the club infiltrating GOT now?

"Dyche has done well".

I think my Everton and your Everton expectations are poles apart. Good day to you.
Prior to this season, Dyche has done well. It's a fact.

He kept us up TWICE (not personally obviously) but he has contributed to us not being relegated and administration.

Our expectations was survival and he did it. Don't start being a Eighties Eddie wanting Kev the Rat and Sharpie because this club was on the cusp of being destroyed.

So yeah he has done well

I agree he has to go, Dyche isn't the answer but The Friedkin Group has being here less than a month and seen us not getting pumped 5-0 against City and Chelsea so you can see why they want to hold fire.

I have faith in The Friedkin Group so let's just calm the F down for a bit, enjoy the FA Cup and no Everton at the weekend

You notice you say a lot of these things past tense though right? currently he's stinking the gaff out and needs to be replaced.

I know but our new owners have just got there and don't have a full time board in place.

We need a CEO, decision on Director of Football and a decision on the manager in that order otherwise it's all going a bit Moshiri.

I'll repeat AGAIN I don't want him here but I want this club to be run correctly and better so rather jump the gun and sack him day one, let the billionaire business guys get their house in order so we can sort ours.

Dyche WILL be gone but it won't be this week
