Regrets?

No Ragrets

Is this the season the sack the board banners come back?

 

[Death]

Oh yes.

 

[orly]

I regret that I have but one butty to lose for my club, and I will expend it by throwing it at Benitez

Well this doesn’t make sense to me, so I’m Out
Goodbye Everton you’ve hurt me so much in the past and I’ve accepted it but
‘I would do anything for love but I won’t do that.’

We'd be no worse off if we hadn't been taken over and had retained Martinez as manager.

It was the right decision to replace him at the time, but we certainly are no better off than if we had kept him as manager. It's been wrong decision after wrong decision since 2016. Poor recruitment is the major issue.

Martinez should have had another season, remember Moyes finishing 17th then 4th.

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

No regrets. This is the stuff resilience is forged from.

Remember these times. For one day we will appoint Jurgen Klopp or Stephen Gerrard as manager.

I can feel it in my waters.

Five and a half years on from Moshiri taking over Everton we are at a stage where a despised ex Liverpool manager who called us a small club is to take over a squad with overpaid players signed by five different managers, while the team remains mid table.

The overwhelming narrative from fans was that Everton just need investment from a wealthy owner and success would follow, instead some say it has been a toxicity brought into the club alienating the players further from the fans. The same fans that others are saying are the tail that wags the Everton dog into making rash decisions.

After Allardyce representing the club and Sammy Lee on the touch line I wonder if this latest humiliation makes some feel regret.

When Moshiri arrived - Haha Billionaires lad!!

Steve Walsh - He won the premier league title by himself for Leicester

Koeman - Yeah , he is a superstar.

Brands - He takes what he wants

We have acted like bells so the football GOD's are punishing us.

We need to repent and take our medicine.

@chicoazul you heard rumours about Brands walking from your source?

 

[when i score we riot]

I have no regrets about somehow ending up supporting Everton since i was a preschool kid, in Norway out of all places. In hindsight, should i have done as the rest and supported one of them red teams?

It might have brought more football-related happiness, but that's an entirely different timeline and I'm sure the multiverse where i'm posting cringe tweets about how Ole's at the wheel is an altogether sadder one.

My alternate me spent summer 2017 waddling about in Alicante in black Havaianas trying to make eye contact with people. In this timeline however, i spent that summer worrying about how that dutch underfilled backpack Koeman could have the audacity to treat Oumar Niasse as he did and having unfairly high hopes for Jordan Pickford, visions of Davy Klaassen bossing the midfield, and enjoying the promise of Wayne Rooney returning to Everton.

I am speaking entirely without authority on this as my subjectivity makes me unable to conclude anything other than that i wouldn't trade this timeline's summer '17 for anything. Or summer 2009 for that matter, when we started the season with 6-1 to Arsenal.

This suddenly got existential but come on, there's a reasoning to the born not manufactured line, even for a non-local like me. This would include all the moaning and terror and ignominy we've suffered, with or without Moshiri.

I have to say there are tinges of disappointment and bouts of cringing about what he's brought to the club, but also big achievements and improvements which has led the club to a place altogether more decent than what could have been in alternate timelines.

 

[ToffeeMonster]

If we'd had Moyes squad when Moshiri took over (when we were 5th), and we could subsequently get a Conte etc. that would've taken us to the next level, but ifs buts and maybes unfortunately.

 

[KaiserEFC]

Hard to tell, the stadium will be worth everything however what happens on the pitch is an abomination

 

[ajo18]

It's hard to view his tenure as an overall negative because he's bringing us a beautiful-looking new stadium which we've desperately needed for practically 20 years. But yes, there are regrets. He doesn't seem to have the football brain that would be required of someone who interferes as much as he does in the footballing side of things. But I also think having Bill still there is a massive part of the problem.

I ate it up and spit it out though,

Club is a basket case, has been since he came in, red flags all over the show, zero progress on the field, his one saving grace is the ground. Its fine having money, its nice to spend it, but its infuriating to waste it through bad decisions and bad management like we have. We are constantly drunk and buying rounds for hangers on at the bar. No link between fans and this team, lost identity and clinging on to a memory and an affection of what was Everton.

Sadly all of the above cracks will be wallpapered over and we will go fan boy mode, when we sign Thomas Muller and Diego Costa in the summer, classic slight of hand and on we go.

 

[billyblue80]

Yes he is the wrong man because he knows very little about football and needles in appointents. We are a play thing and we are spending hundreds of millions to go nowhere, wasteful scattergun spending. Rafael is the final insult for me.Moshiri is part of the problem not the solution sadly. More money than sense, he should be allowing Brands the reigns instead he wants to appoint washed up names who despise us.
