We are mate, it just doesn’t happen. These last 5 games are where the big teams rise, we’ve got 5 games to go, as long as we support and don’t turn we’ll be okay. It doesn’t look good right now but those last few games will be essential and the last 2 will be against teams on their holidays.

Stop deluding yourself, we can’t win an away game, we can barely score a goal so please tell me how we are going to get results

Your mates “information” about Richarlison going to villa panned out well

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.

Did anybody see soton drawing at Arsenal? We’ll find a way. 7 points is what we need, don’t panic. Draw on Monday and last 2 wins 👍
 
The worrying scenario in the event we do go down is Moshiri doing the exact opposite of what we expect. I can visualise the joker sat talking to Jim White :

JW: Well Farhad, the unthinkable has occurred. You’ve sunk £650M into Everton and been relegated. Surely this means seismic change?

FM: Jim, Jim, Jim....I promised a striker and we will get a striker, I’m a man if my word. The supporters just need to trust me.

JW: Farhad, you needed one last year, it’s too late, you’re team has been relegated.

FM: Jim, Jim...don’t be a defeatist, I know what I’m doing. I have the best Board in the Premier League they are the envy of the football World.

JW: But Farhad, you’re no longer in the Premier League...

FM: Jim, don’t listen to the fans, they just want to sack managers. Denise, our world- renowned CEO has assured me everything is fine. We’re looking forward to getting the fixture list and getting excited about the Derby.

JW: Farhad, you’ll be playing Rotherham and Preston.

FM: Yes, it’s amazing how they’ve reached the promised land and joined us at the top table. Sharpy, the football brain on the Board has been impressed with them....he believes they’re the model to follow. How exciting.


I don’t think he has the cahoonas to fire this Board - they’ll be with us in the Championship.
 

Did we realistically expect anything against Newcastle? Things looked much worse last season (Burnley match) we’re in a [Poor language removed] position but there’s time. If we all give up hope then what’s the point?
 
knowing your history said:
Peter Johnson reign of terror in mid 90s pushed the club down from that bracket more than anything Kenwright did in those early years.

Look at the difference in managerial appointments. Fell out with Joe Royle and summer 1997 was apparently going to see Bobby Robson pitched up. Botched that and a few others and then Kendall came in for his third spell and everyone know 5 games in that season it was a massive error and club was very lucky to stay up.

On paper Walter Smith was a strong appointment given what he'd achieved at Rangers when Scottish football was still a reasonably strong league but aside from 99-00 it was just a very dull watch under him.

Kenwright should've sacked him sooner but his first managerial appointment was Moyes and that was undoubtedly a success considering he came in to a similar situation Lampard did and proved he could achieve solid results in the long run. Martinez for 18 months was a solid pick aswell.

Club was still 5th-7th for most of that period with reasonable aspirations to push onto top 4 so a world away from the sorry state it's in now or indeed for much of the 90s.

It wasn't exactly a reign of terror when we had Andrei Kanchelsis terrorising opposition defences and we were winning the FA Cup.

At the time it seemed that we had dropped our standards from the 80s for sure, and everyone was glad to see the back of Agent Johnson when it came. But it only signalled the beginning of two decades of managed decline under his successor, the Moyes period notwithstanding, which has culminated in probable relegation. This has been the real reign of terror.

I think you quote the wrong message Guy. It’s amazing how many times you mention villa or villa players

I sense your hiding something

I have links to villa through friends and hear bits re transfers. I’ve not mentioned them tonight until others pulled up messages from a long time ago, I’m trying to stay positive as we all should.
