Dont forget that team against Newcastle was arguably our strongest side.....
Personally don’t think any team with Godfrey at right back comes close to qualifying as our strongest side

Dont forget that team against Newcastle was arguably our strongest side.....
Chin up lad your not aloneI feel sorry for all the younger fans out there (and by young I mean the under 55s).
Because I am just resigned now and taking it in my stride and have been for a good few years now.
Where once the rage, shame or humiliation after a night like last night carried on for days, now I feel only numbness the next morning and just carry on with my life.
But up until I was about 50 defeats hit me an awful lot harder than what they do now.
(e.g. after the Glenn Keeley derby I took the next week off work…and I wasn’t even living in Liverpool at that time, I was working dahn that Lahndan)
And that is without ever actually experiencing relegation or even, pre 1994/95, ever having a relegation scare.
My world would literally be collapsing around me right now even into my early 50s given this dire situation.
Thank goodness we have forums like GOT where can vent with each other.
Back in the 20th, getting a letter published in the Pink Echo was my only outlet
That the only change? Godfrey for Coleman.... obv Coleman was injuredPersonally don’t think any team with Godfrey at right back comes close to qualifying as our strongest side

I think if you make that switch then you get the team that beat Arsenal so I would say so
We are gone. I've been an Evertonian for over 45 years and these past years have been like watching an elderly parent deteriorate to the point were you know it's only a matter of time, and that time has come.
The future is unknown. I've no idea what an Everton team looks like in the EFL. I'm in shock. The fact we didn't go down years ago under Kenwright is soley down to the spirit, reputation and history of the club.
We talk about teams like Man.City, Newcastle, West Ham, Villa and Leeds, as being teams who have witnessed relegation, but those clubs (except Villa) were never flush with success or recognised as one of the big 5 when they were relegated. We have fell from a great height. Our peers were Liverpool, Man.Utd, Arsenal and Spurs, when Kenwright took over. Those four clubs have continued to to stay at the top.
What Kenwright has been allowed to do to Everton Football Club is criminal.
We have a generation of fans who have known nothing but Kenwrights Everton. The Everton I know, the Everton that our Dads, Grandads and great Grandads knew and helped to build is unrecognizable to me today. One man, and only one man, is responsible. The Bill Kenwright version of Everton has been neglected beyond comprehension.
He took over Everton, knowing full well he didn't have the resourcers to be the clubs custodian, but he had his train set, his vehicle to further satiate his need for limelight. He has bypassed golden opportunitues to do the right thing by the club and fans, delivered nothing but lies and false promises, sold the best English talent we have produced for buttons, sold some great players to keep the banks away, all so he can keep his grubby hands on the keys. He didn't us a billionaire. He found a fool with money who would line his pockets and at the same time allow him to keep the keys and continue to take a wedge of money out of the club. We stood and watched, year on year, knowing what he was. Sorry for the rant.
Remember them both well.
And I agree. This would be harder to stomach. The thing keeping me going is that if we win Monday we go out of it. It’s so tight.
Yes I see that but;
Strange comment. Very strange.Its about ‘belonging’. You have to have that culture from the board to the players. The likes of Onana, Doucoure, Gueye dont belong to the club. They have no concern. You have to have a culture.
This shows how imperative it is to not lose to leicester , a defeat coupled with what I expect are two more defeats to Brighton and City leaves us on 28 points , Leicester with a win got to 32 , a forest win at home to southampton leaves them on 33 …that wolves game away would require us to win to stay up …it is a huge gameIn the last 5 games we need 2 more points than Forest and Leicester, 3 more points than Leeds.... here is the fixtures for all teams, we need some wins, I can`t see any.... I`m sure the team will try but they just aren`t good enough, we don`t survive from here especially when Forest have Southampton at home so we will need 6 more points than Forest.

Oh spare me this BS, we are not in any way, shape or form too big to go downWe’re too big to go down. We’ll find a way, always have and always will. I’d take a draw on Monday. We’ll win the last 2 matches and just sneak it
It's coming at exactly the wrong time.
If we'd got a striker in last summer we could have got through this season and probably the next, by which time that stadium would be coming on stream and Moshiri would have sold the club on.
I dont expect relegation to be the worst of it for us now. There'll be a financial meltdwon and we'll be down in the Championship for years waiting for academy grown talent plus astute purchases and a manager gifted enough to make it all work....and the fans will be downbeat and disorientated for years.
The Doucoure red card killed us IMOHaven't given up yet, but it's looking extremely likely now.
The disruption to the settled starting line up we had a few weeks back has sealed our fate, I believe.
Alright mate had a pop when came out game Thursday apologies, got to agree with you was our best line up apart from Coleman which tells everyone we're just not good enough no matter even there's 100 percent effort I think we're doomed players aren't good enough that's it nothing else to sayThat the only change? Godfrey for Colemian.... obv Coleman was injured
