Relegation 2022/23

[Bkk Andy]

I think it's a foregone conclusion now. There aren't 3 worse teams than us, we're dreadful. 3-1 at home to Fulham and I'm sure they feel it should have been more.

The concern is really how we survive financially speaking. We're being investigated in the premier league and will get slaughtered in the championship. Pickford will make us money. Onana might turn a small profit. I don't see much from anyone else. I mean, our best player is McNeil and I don't see us making a profit on him.

I don't think it's ever felt so dark.

At least we’ve had good times, thanks chairman Bill

There's no way that we'll find investors to finish the stadium whilst we're in the lower leagues.

i actually don’t care about bmd.

we’re sinking into the football abyss

 

[matty1878]

Everton 27 points
Bournemouth 33 points.

they’re safe we’re done

 

[ToffeeTim]

We're done

Absolutely done

No amount of spin and positivity changes it. This is a team and manager out of their depth at this level.

 

[Gilbert..]

Goes back to the january window. Every single Evertonian knew we needed something up front.
They sat on their arse.
Simple as that.

 

[Cork Evertonian]

You know, I was a teenager when Everton were the best team in Europe. Then, we declined to the point of near death in 1994. And since then it has been a slow managed decline with other near-death experiences. Over time, I forgot what it was like to support a good team. Then the hurlers came along and reminded me what it felt like to support not a good team but a great team. Just as Everton once were. I felt like a Corkman!

All good things pass. This Limerick team will pass. But what memories. As for Everton? The memories are very old now. Perhaps it's time to finally put his beloved old dog down. He's had his day.

That's the thing Cork are in bit of a barren period at the moment in both GAA codes.

I still am confident that Cork will return to glory again. With Everton i don't ever see us getting back to the top table again sadly.

we now second from bottom?

No, the only way we can drop in is if Leicester beat City or Forest get a point off United tomorrow

 

[Chegsy]

Kin Garry O'Neil laughing his bollocks off at being 6 points clear of us too

He's not even a manager

They spent 50m in January whilst we sold Gordon and sat on our hands. Everyone has played their part for the position we find ourselves in from top to bottom.

 

[Gareth Gibson]

As a kid I would have been livid at our situation. I'd have been clinging to the ceiling with my fingernails frothing at the gums. But I (genuinely) do not care about the possibility of relegation. Maybe it's because I'm older and my interest in footy -- including the Euros and World Cup -- has been on the wane since 2015. Or maybe it's because I've watched too many Adam Curtis documentaries and I've just zoned out of caring about trivial things.

We all care more about the footy when we're kids.

In the grand scheme of things, when you see what President Xi is doing to the Uighurs or what Putin is doing in Ukraine, sport is clearly not as important.

But Everton is a big part of my identity and for the duration of my life (since 5 anyway) I've supported a top-flight football team. My Dad will be turning in his grave.

 

[USABlue]

This is 100% on the cowards in the boardroom. They needed the supporters to drag them through last season. There was tacit acceptance of it as long as we didn't do it again. Here we are with 7 matches to go looking like we are going down. Just [Poor language removed] awful.

Replacing Richarlison with Maupay and McNeil was criminal

 

[sbbefc]

Need a miracle territory now.

 

[Efcjake]

Feels inevitable after today even though it's only one result and I wasn't as worried before the match.

Stands are emptying because they can't even be arsed booing them. It's too nice out blues, go do something healthy for yourselves and have a pint outside.
