You don't, I'm a Leeds fan and I'm sorry to say this but from my impartial view you are gone, I was worried but not now and not if we beat Watford on Saturday.

You played ok (ish) but no heart.

Some of you still don't get it and the odd message says go down rebuild and come back up. They are WRONG I've said it before on here but there is no up-side to relegation, none at all. It could kill your club, look at Leeds at Derby at Bolton, Sunderland.

Your new stadium, can you see it happening if you don't immediately come back up?

I would imagine most players have relegation clauses in their contracts so you will lose your better players, probably on the cheep because others will know you need the money.

Why are you not outside the club protesting?

We stayed down 16 years, I was 29 I'm now 45 let that sink in, you might not like us Leeds fans not many do but we've been there and it's [Poor language removed].

And the problem is its been left too late to do anything about it, it is down to your players and manager to dig you out of this and honestly I don't think they can.

Your preaching to the converted mate.

Answer me this.

What's so good about the PL anyway?

All those same things were said by worried Villa, Leeds & M City fans when their club went down. The only difference is 100k-a-week is now standard, but these raises are in line with everything else (TV money, ticket prices, sponsorships, parachute payments etc).

Ultimately, the numbers don't matter. We'll go down. Bankrupt. New Stadium cancelled. We'll be giving away players just to get them off the wage bill. We'll replace them with youth-graduates and lower-league journeymen. Dunc will finally get the job. We'll do well to avoid relegation to the third tier...

...but gradually things will pick up, the fans will appreciate what following Everton really is. Even if it takes 5 years to return back to the top flight, that journey will surely have more soul about it than these last 5 years. More meaning.

It's meaning that's been missing. We might get that back after relegation.

Mate we tried a protest and about 10 fans walked out whilst the rest sang for bill kenwright ?
 
The club is a walking corpse while its polluted by these vermin. Still, at least we had "good times" eh.......

Basically, as close as verbatim that I can remember it from the Esk speaking on a twitter stream.

Yes. But what are they saying?

The boss is rubbish? The team?
What will the players be actually revealing?

Oh, they will be saying the manager is rubbish, doesn't know what he's doing in training, chopping and changing formation, tactics and players haven't got a clue what he wants.

Probably starts with him calling them out after the cup game.
