Relegation 23/24 Thread

What’s concerning me now is the next 3 games, especially the 2 home games to Bournemouth and Luton, are absolutely massive. But if I’m either of them teams mentioned I’m looking at Everton away thinking ‘yeah, we’ll go there have a go at them and we’ll beat them.’And they probably will as the pressure will be ramped up especially if we lose at Brentford. I don’t know if we’ll recover if we don’t get anything from those games.
 
Can't do 32 more weeks of this.
Honestly I just don’t now. I live in Canada so I get up, look at the final score and get on with my day. Everton have absolutely ruined my mental health over the past 2 years and I refuse to let them do it for a 3rd. Funny thing is that we aren’t even asking for a lot. Boring old 10th to 14th place finishes would be a blessing to us until we get to the new ground. Right now it just feels like we are the next Sunderland and it is so depressing to think about, especially as this league isn’t even very good, so a club like Everton being ran remotely competently should never be in this position.
 
Bloody hell mate i don't even want to know who we have next week let alone on the coming months lol

I know we have Brentford, another tough game where we'd normally be happy with a point but every game that goes by without a win ramps up the pressure.
Hahaha that was my thoughts too but I looked for the first time and got very worried!!! It's not the clubs involved it's which ones we have home/away and it's terrifying. We need to win away games to not be buried by new year
 

I’ve left work early today, drove an hour to the game, paid 55 quid for the ticket, to watch that, then drive an hour home.

My point is…. I’m 38 now. I’m going to say my first game was probably when I was about 8, so thirty years I’ve been doing this, thirty years. The misery I feel is getting to the point where I think ‘is this even worth it anymore’. This is coming from myself who I consider a die hard Everton supporter. I was there at Finch Farm seeing the players off when they went away to Watford, I’ve been there at the coach welcoming’s for Palace, Chelsea, etc, I couldn’t get a ticket for the Bournemouth game so went to the Spellow just because I had to be there.

It’s horrible to say but I am now losing hope. I don’t even want to watch this anymore. Liverpool go a goal down and you just know they are going to win, we go a goal down and it’s curtains. We cannot score goals. We can’t we score goals? How hard is it to get the ball and have a shot? I’m losing the will for this. It’s a sad, sorry state of affairs.
 
We are blessed that there are at least two teams, on paper, that are way worse than us this season, and another couple that we have a proper chance of beating out.

Dire times indeed

Luton I'll give you but not sure how you can say the same about Sheffield United. If we're saying it's unfortunate losing late on to Fulham and Wolves well they've had similar v Man. City, Forest and Spurs so I think they'll scramble a few wins when they play likes of Wolves, Fulham, Bournemouth etc.

They'll be down there all season and actually talk they'll re-appoint Wilder soon.

Burnley can't defend but again they've played Man. City, Villa and Spurs so those games ultimately don't define whether they survive or not. Forest will be a better metric.

They must be really kicking themselves they didn't ask the premier league to switch the Luton game and have that at home once it was decided Kenilworth Road wouldn't be ready for the second weekend.
 

Undeniably [Poor language removed] as our points tally is I honestly think we can still just about argue we’re better than that total suggests.

The luck aspect will balance out eventually but anything less than 4 points from the next 3 games & it’s time for concern.

I think we could be heading for a Derby situation who finishes on 12 points

There absolutely isn't two teams way worse.

Sheffield United were our equal when we played them.

Despite results Luton have played well. Away to Fulham on Saturday they hit the woodwork and actually created chances from open play which is something we wouldn't have. Likewise they had the upper hand against West Ham.

I've seen us get battered by the likes of Tranmere, Wigan and Hull. This Everton team is the worst in my 35 yrs watching the club.

Luton will best us by 3 or 4 as the crowd will be toxic when Luton start having us chase shadows. They'll try and play football. We dont/can't.

Dyche will be sacked and then, knowing our luck, Fat Sam will be back as manager.
