Relegation

[nsno-chris]

I am going on Thursday so I'm not burying my head in the sand until then. I probably should accept if for me own sanity, but I won't just yet. You either give up or fight.

You’re right Tim. Hopefully they can get a result for you

 

[The_Riddler]

As much as if pains me. We are down, I don't see a way out at all


Sad to see, I've supported this club my entire life

Time to move on friend. They don’t deserve your support

 

[wainy]

Well an FA Cup win would have a very big asterisk attached to it, if those players get us relegated imo.

We’ve won one away from home all season, don’t worry, a pathetic hiding away at palace awaits.

 

[The_Riddler]

Because of the players, I have given up

This. This club no longer deserves your support.

Is there a single player in the squad that you’ll be sad to see go after we’ve been relegated? Because I can’t think of even one. Maybe Gordon?

 

[Zeitgeist]

The fans were there today. We turned up and it was incredibly hostile, especially around the Hwang injury.

But when you see no movement, the idleness of the midfield and the constant reliance on Gordon to do something it was difficult to get behind because it was so so poor.

Kenny, Coleman and Doucoure were so poor in possession

Mykolenko still needs a run of games so I am going to reserve judgement for now, but that ball for the goal should not have come in.

I'm just at a loss with it all. Can't see how we're gonna even manage to draw a game now.

Newcastle are just gonna run us off the park Thursday

I wish I had the confidence of some that we will be ok.

Our form is abysmal, and the teams below look to have more about them than we do - the only saving grace is they play each other and also the top sides as well, sp they will drop points, but then we have to better or at least match their results, and I don't see us able to with these players.

Please God let me be wrong

Hoping goodison under the lights can inspire the fans on Thursday - we need the walls to shake,.and I'll be there as usual.

Not one except Gordon but he won't leave imo

 

[Parker]

Do you not think that Benitez, given our financial predicament, was under instruction to get rid of Digne & add more depth to a problematic position? A top earner & one of the few we could get decent money for?

Add more depth hahahahaha

 

[PhilEFC]

The fans were behind them today from the off, but the lack of effoet from the team affected the fans.

No excuse today about the fans not supporting the players. These current players don’t deserve the fans.

All true. I can't see where we'll get another point tbh.

We need a spark. A moment when we get a break out of the blue. If we dont get it against Newcastle it'll be very very difficult to put the brakes on and start turning this in the other direction.

That said: IF we get a win against Newcastle we can still do this. I also think a free shot at Palace and a Wembley appearance secured could also dig out some late season form to get us just out of it.

I've seen matters worse than this for us in the 90s. The difference was that we had characters in those teams. But the chance still remains for charcters to emerge from this parlous situation too.

Nil Desperandum.

We can still do this. It will take a very low total to survive. Thank goodness.

Dave, the issue is that this is what we lack. As the old saying goes, you make your own luck: we look unable to get the break we need; we lack composure.

Before the game, my son was listening to Forever Everton when he asked, "Daddy, what goes 'all for one, one for all' mean?" I was trying to explain it.

Apart from a few examples like Leeds or City, it is clear that they lack unity and do not play as a team. Do they trust each other? Are they playing as a group?

The answer for me is a resounding no, which means they'll struggle to find said spark. These are the most gutless, uninspiring players I've seen, ever.

At least with the 90s teams there were players in the dressing room who you knew would get stuck in. I'm struggling to see who will do this bar one or two.

But Jon Joe said last week that they were all a cracking bunch of lads

Spineless
Gutless
Clueless
Skilless
Useless

 

[MACCA75]

Imagine Huddersfield having the pick of our players in the summer or Watford taking Richarlison back.
