A 'dinosaur' who's got us up to 8th place while other recent top half teams are getting relegated...

The Bolton example is a time where he has had an extended run

Keen to replace him with someone demonstrably better - but these people are not easy to find

A Brands (with his life of Eredivisie experience) / Fonseca (limited experience - in places like Portugal, Ukraine) combination is quite a risk

He had a more recent extended run at West Ham ,that didn't turn out too well in the end.
But he looks like being our manager for the foreseeable so we shall see. I personally suspect as he thinks last nights 'style' was acceptable that it's currently as good as it gets for Everton.
 
The Allardyce PR machine is in full swing since last night. It isn't going to change anything though imo. I get that a lot of us, me included are terrified of the thought of him still being in charge next season but one win against a poor on the night Newcastle side is not going to do anything to keep him here after everything that has gone on. Allardyce calling the performance and result excellent in a game of football that produced one shot on target and was very obviously awful to everyone else watching is no different than when Martinez used to call it phenomenal. Both were/are fighting to keep a job that they have already lost. If there was one image from last night that sums the performance up and shows that he wont be here next season, it would be this one that was posted here last night.



That is not an image of enjoyment watching their team in a football match. It is an image of them being bored out of their skulls and thinking to themselves this is absolutely awful, no wonder the surveys were so against him, the man has to go.

Presumably you watched it in a library or on the moon? Any atmosphere came from the Geordies, and nobody even batted an eyelid when they started the "You've got Sam Allardyce" thing, Goodison as a whole just sat there in almost embarrassed silence!

I liked the Sam Bastarrdyce chant better. May have been extra quiet where you sat, where I was it wasn't. My wife told me off for shouting "bad language" usually at Rooney and Davies. Not everybody sat on their hands. I was in Upper Bullens.

he's not the same manager he was back then though, when he was trying to build his reputation and most of the football being played in the league was of a similar ilk. Times have changed and so has Sam, he used to love slating the opposition players and managers and winding them up now he just berates his own team whilst revelling in any successes.

I was blinded by his Bolton days when we first announced we were going to appoint him but i was wrong, he's not got the same drive and hunger any more.

The local bisto store would disagree with your last point
But I agree he’s a dinosaur in the modern world

I mentioned this earlier in the thread, seems i wasn't the only one who noticed it thankfully. he won't be here next year, you can't ignore such vehement fan reaction to the guy.

Yes, he wanted sam to stay, thought he had done a great job and Everton fans should get real.
He was far too passionate about him. He was a rs.

I have a feeling that all caller on TS are fake, seems to be the same ones over and over, heard a guy called Dave twice and both times he said the same thing and finished with, Ee want Sean Dyche
 

Well lads I got to go to work and if I could go back to yesterday and had the choice of Goodison or work I’d chose work

Yet he signed for Allyrdyce , are you saying he had no idea what kind of football teams managed by Allyrdyce play ?

You're assuming a lot here. Maybe he didn't care what style he plays so long as the contract was right. Maybe he was told by a club official/employee you'll be here a lot longer than Sam.

Did you watch the snippet? He was almost flabbergasted they even asked the question.
