Villa fan in peace...
Reading through this thread is interesting. My gut feeling is Everton won't go down, you are too big, but looking at the results and remaining fixtures I understand the concern.
I am really surprised with where the blame is being pointed to though. RB was the wrong manager but he was only manager for a few months. I just don't see how he could be blamed for the current situation. My outsider view is that the issue lies with Denise Barrett-Baxendale. Every company needs a CEO that puts the structure and strategy in place and makes sure the management team deliver this. Managerial appointments, transfers, transfer strategy and financials all look to be a mess. Yes, you need a new manager quickly to avoid relegation but that is just a bandaid to cover up the problems imo. Next year will be just as bad, if not worse until the right CEO and management team are put in place. A challenge with this is that Moshiri doesn't want a strong CEO and he wants to play games with Everton FC like its his latest toy. The danger with this is he may get bored of his new toy and stop the investment.
Tough times, I don't like to see any club go through this sort of shyte. Best of luck with getting a new manager.
