posted that in the wrong thread, actually...

I have moderated my previously unequivocal 'OUT' stance on our current manager. Whilst I do not rate him particularly highly, I am prepared to give him til Xmas.

 

[ianefc]

Tbf, the orange/blue filters are a bit suggestive to the untrained mind. You going to hold cinematic colour grading techniques against him too?

Yes.

 

[TyphooToffee]

You are right mate. He is a hugely sought after, experienced and successful PL manager. I just hope Everton reaps the reward of his stewardship skills before Barca nabs him.

Don't, he'll think you're serious!

 

[TyphooToffee]

Ok fare enough Frank.

lol

 

[BlueToff]

btw is it now only me, @davek, and @BlueToff who don't want him sacked on here?

Surely @mkrudden hasn't turned?

I'm actually in the boat that I think he may be gone come summer. That Arsenal defeat seems to have totally swayed the tide now.

It's his own fault, at the end of the day, though as I've said time and time again the players also share the blame.

I think Bobby could be a very good manager, but his stubbornness may be his downfall at a 'big' club.

This season is far from the unqualified failure that many are saying it is, however, though a lot rests on the semi-final - and it's a sad incitement of the manager that his job here may well rest on that one game...

 

[BlueToff]

@Prevenger17 and @mkrudden along with @paulbefc an @Moomin possibly @Titus Bramble

I think @BlueToff is done with him, though. You're only a couple short of a cult xi

Very much on the fence.

Want him to succeed but he keeps making the same mistakes time and time again.

I'd be happy if he stayed and the results picked up, but alternatively I wouldn't care much if he went come summer.

Burnt the fence 18 months ago when he said something along the lines of "...only real Evertonians understand what I am trying to do here..." What a remarkable patronising thing to say. I've been here for 50 years mate and I'll be here when you have gone, sooner the better in my humble opinion. Cup runs don't hide the fact that he is not a good manager. The last two years have underlined that through continual poor performances and mainly bottom half existence in the league.
Two 3rd round exits at Swansea and West Ham last season don't help either. Gotta go for me as I don't have the patience of Jobe to wait for sustained improvement.

I think you are too conveniently forgetting he got Wigan the Pyrrhic Cup... and Everton a 5th (with record points). Nobody in Everton's recent history has bettered that 5th place...except for Moyes...who got a 4th; but he only got 61 points to attain that position, so it's not as good.
