I said they'd never make a major decision based off fans opinion but ok I'll make it even clearer. The powers that be will never, EVER make a major decision that will either effect the club or have large financial implications based on what fans want.

Here's what you said.

It's cringworthy in general to imagine that the club give a dam what we think. They've got our money. They don't care what any of us think unless it matches their own beliefs. If you think for one second they'll make any changes or decisions based on what we fans think then your wrong.

As you can see, you said 'any' decision. And as the crest change proves, that isn't true.
 

What appears to have escaped most people's attention is that the survey also asked for fans opinions of the board. I'll tell you now, there is absolutely no way on earth that an official survey gets sent out asking people how they feel about the board without it being signed off at that level. None whatsoever.

Ignore what Allardyce said, whether you think it was a good or bad idea, a stroke of genius or an embarrassment, this wasn't an individual error.

The survey has been sent out by the marketing director but sure as hell it's our russian board member whose drawn that up.
 
It's sad that it'll probably be the Geordies who lead the anti-Sam songs whilst our fans will be clapping Rooney finally passing to a blue shirt.

If we beat the Geordies mate, and the way some of our fans are, they'll be singing pro Allardyce songs, and clapping when his mug pops up on the big screen #easilypleasedfansfc
 
I see Arsenal are uniting the fan base by announcing the departure of the manager at the end of the season.

Wonder if the Everton Board is watching ?

Wouldn't mind betting Arsenal know exactly who their next manager will be as well! We can only hope similar work has going on behind the scenes at Everton!

Our problem is we'll have to wait until about 5pm on Sunday 13th May for it to be announced this bloke's going!
 
Mate the date in his user name suggests he is either 65 years old or for some reason he likes to celebrate 1953 in conjunction with the club, think we can all have a guess at what type of blue would like that year...

1953/54 promotion to the first division and Liverpool relegated same season. I think we can all have a guess at what type of blue would not be aware of that. Or perhaps you were born after 2000, a millennial?
 

Has Moshiri still not come out in support of the slack jawed gravy guzzler?

Hopefully that’s telling us all we need to know.

Surely you would celebrate the year those things actually happened, not the year the season started? Be a bit like saying we won the cup in 1994.

Liverpool where relegated in 54 mate, Everton in 53 where playing in the second division as was.

Thought any blue would know that

Oh Dear oh Dear. Think before you type or you make an ass of yourself. Re read the thread. Which part of "Season 1953/54 promotion to the first division and Liverpool relegated same season". do you not understand? We kind of passed each other, one going down and one going up. Get it? If not, then get back to me and I will draw a diagram.
 
I have been through the full range of emotions as a blue, boredom and apathy to exhiliration and anticipation - like loads of others, and now i'm just totally fed up and angry with the whole running of the club.

Its ok to send a survey on a manager and team, I think. It's not that clever, but it's not such a PR disaster and debacle that the press is making out. I certainly don't think that the director of marketing needs to be thrown under the bus like Allardyce and Kenwright seem to have done, but it also more importantly shows just what a shockingly badly run club this is. Who is actually in charge? Allardyce? He's got the right to comment on corporate matters now? Kenwright is providing an apology? is he in charge then? Ok so we all think Moshiri is calling the shots, cos he does interviews and makes decisions - so is he in charge?
What about Elstone? What's the fing point of a CEO? And what's more, just like the stupid F---ing Niasse 'dive' which was not a big deal I know, it just shows that our media, management, advocacy work is so crap. We are only getting panned in the media and by Allardyce cos there's no strong leadership and advocacy in our club. We could have line managed the director of marketing before the survey, they could have appealed strongly to the FA about NIasse's dive. There could be strong PR management in the media to spin our version of events..but no, we are still small time and punching above our weight, and 'poor little Everton' in every department.
I've had enough of this sh**show, you know maybe it shouldn't have happened but its ok to get rated on your job performance, it happens all the time. What it shows, which is apparent from all three of the last managerial appointments is that professional development / job assessment / appraisal interviews, or line management, is not given to our team managers and coaching staff. Otherwise Martinez might have overhauled his coaching staff and system, Koeman might have put some energy and sense into his tactics, and Allardyce wouldn't mouth off like a lunatic every week.

I hate this crap. If anyone still cares about my rant, I just recently had a baby, later than I had hoped, and i was so looking forward to buying her a shirt, taking her to matches etc, ...not even thinking about it now.
