Ffs is he still manager!!
Right now he'll be managing a right narky fume whilst guzzling a hair of the dog bisto.

Later on he'll be managing a pint of wine and pie, followed by a bit of a sit down on the thrown with the racing post.

Then check the business account and then realise that he is managing great with this week's pay languishing like a normal person's wet dream of a lottery win in front of his eyes.

As for managing Everton? Who cares - bung on a Swansea video and see if the players can work it out. Zero out of ten? He'll show us zero out of ten alright come Monday night.
 
I've been vaulted numerous times myself. And deservedly so.

The vaults help us learn and move forward.
If they are accurate and used in the correct context that's fair enough but when used to try to make an erroneous case that someone is an Allardyce apologist in a type of childish witch hunt,they are of little real value.
 
There will be no protest or mass booing on Monday, of that you can be sure. Maybe an extremely brief boo at half and full time before applause breaks out as if to thank the multi millionaires for their effort.
 

That was because of Moyes, a manager recommended to him by Walter Smith. Kenwright’s first choice was Gary Megson.

I’m genuinely gobsmacked you believe that Kenwright giving us negative netspends and selling our good players contributed to us having European campaigns. Incredible.

Any high league finish has been in spite of Kenwright, not because of him. We could have easily been relegated with our no -existent budget.

The club seem to think that moving to Bramley-Moore Dock is going to transform us now, so do the fans. You don’t think having the best stadium in Europe at the time would have made any difference? We would have been at the forefront for the investment that was coming into the Premier League.

What clubs? Have: Arsenal, Liverpool or Man Utd fell down the divisions in that time? They were the club’s who we were linked with, before Kenwright came on board. Think people forget that little fact that Kenwright has been on the board a lot longer than he hasn’t been the chairman.

But you have your agenda.

Prove Megson was his first choice. That was never an option. Its just a weird made up rumour. Why would it have been Megson? It makes zero sense.

You are gobsmacked because your hatred of him is so one eyed that you can not see any other opinion. That's fine, we all have our own opinions on stuff and I can't knock you for that but we will never agree.

Thing is because I don't hate Kenwright you seem to think I love him? I don't. I just don't think he has done nearly as bad a job as the haters seem to think. He has been merely OK. Kept us at the right end and not turned us into a Leeds or whoever.

Moving ground may be a good thing and of course I hope it is, but there is zero guarantee of that. Arsenal have dipped since moving, loads of other clubs have done nothing since changing grounds (Sunderland, Southampton etc) so I don't think the failed ground moves can be linked to us not pushing on.

During this time we have spent quite high on wages which always seems to be forgotten. People assume footballers play for free. We always rewarded (rightly or wrongly) our better players with better contracts in an attempt to keep them here. Kenwright did not sell our better players, the better players wanted to leave which leaves you with no real choice unless you think we should have kept them against their will and then dealt with unhappy players? And we always dug in and got top dollar for them.

But regardless, and going back to the topic at hand here, regardless of your opinion of the man he IS an Evertonian, always has been. He may be a rubbish chairman, business man whatever, but he is a blue and will have been horrified to see we were taking Allardyce on as it was such an un-Everton appointment. If Kenwright still had the final say I have no doubt that he would have stuck with Unsworth.
 
I hope there is a fans survey at the end of every season, I think it's fantastic and a massive change to the 20 years under Kenwright where he totally ignored us and did what he wanted.

One thing we know for certain is Moshiri listens to the fans and wants them onside, it's a welcome refreshing revolution to what it has been.

He appointed Allardyce! Nobody wanted him yet here we are.
 
There will be no protest or mass booing on Monday, of that you can be sure. Maybe an extremely brief boo at half and full time before applause breaks out as if to thank the multi millionaires for their effort.

Yeah, we can get a banner together to protest against away game tv times but when it comes to Everton actually being successful no one is interested.
