Reasons for optimism...

Honestly, this does make me optimistic!

Football has morphed from something fabulous to become monstrous. It pretends to be what it always was, but really it has become truly grotesque.

I never chose to become involved with an entertainment where the money is so consuming and the ownership is so appalling. It changed around me.

Football disappearing and being able to replace it with something enjoyable to do would genuinely improve my life.

Thankfully I have GAA Hurling and Football plus Shamrock Rovers to keep me half sane.
 

I wouldn't go as far as outstanding. They were decent. And Gray has been pretty poor recently, very poor in his last two games.

We should be buying the best championship players every year.
I wouldn't argue with that.

Forshaw at Leeds is one I cant understand how we let go. Heart as big as a lion's and great for them in the Championship especially.
 
I wish we were safe , then I could have a friggin good RANT.

As we are not , I feel drained even just thinking about this mess.
This is the most physically and mentally spent ive ever felt in over 5 decades supporting this club.

So the RANT will have to wait for now.


UP THE FREAKIN TOFFEE'S.
Just watched Toffee TV , now i'm not especially fond of them lads , but one of them goes off on a real propper RANT.
Its exactly what i feel like doing as in the above post.
He's absolutely spot on in what he say's , i think many of us deep down feel this way.

UP THE CHARITABLE TOFFEE'S.

Forshaw divides opinion at Leeds. I liked him as soon as he signed for us, can see a pass and when he is fully recovered from his major injury I think he will be a key player.
Watford Burnley Norwich . Thats why I am positive for Leeds, I assume Evertonians must feel the same.
 
If we stay in the league then I think it’s an opportunity to have a healthy enough refresh of the squad. Moshiri to keep his hands away from football business and let the new DOF and Lampard get on with it.

I also think flirting so closely to relegation disaster might give a manager like Lampard a little bit more breathing space if we are comfortably mid table next year…and fans won’t call for his head after a few defeats.

Would love to see us going back to buying hungry young players - Brennan Johnson at forest, knight from derby, Alex Scott from Bristol city and be in the running for players of the quality of Gallagher,broja, livramento who would have improved our squad no end this year.

I think richarlison and DCL don’t work together either - so if one of them went I wouldn’t be totally devastated.

Just get to may without being relegated and breathe…

I'm not sure I can hold my breath that long watching the clowns "playing" for us
 
That's the spirit.

"confirmed".

FFS.

Sadly its reality. The squad has less back bone than a slug. We have a manager who goes into away games with a gung ho attitude,, then acts shocked when these talentless, over paid divas inevitably wilt under the first sign of pressure.
