Sam Allardyce

[davids]

I hope you're right mate. However, I'd like to know why some people are positive they think he is leaving when all most of us see is a man who has us in 8th and has just informed the world he and the club owner are making squad plans for next season.

If it wasn't true time Moshiri called him out,but I won't hold my breath.

Koeman survived getting into the Europa - sacked - Sam is despensible, and his press conference at no time did he utter the words I am here next season just vaugue, also he can say that as ATM he is contracted to do so!

A good point you made earlier - highly unlikely that he would drag the club owner into some elaborate ruse to pretend to the media that he was staying when in fact he was on the brink of being dismissed. The notion just doesn't stand up to scrutiny apart from by a few wishful thinkers.

Moshiri is happy as Larry with Allardyce. 8th position and way out of trouble = his cash has retained its value. He'd settle for three more seasons of that whatever the quality of football and lack of progress if it tided us over to a stadium opening.

He's all about getting someone to pay for a stadium and absolutely nothing about team development.

No, Koeman was sacked because of Europa failure plus multiple humiliations in the league, leaving the club in the relegation zone.

Koeman was sacked because we were in the relegation zone.

I cant think of a plausible alternative scenario where Allardyce claims Moshiri's backing. No chance he's gone out on a limb like this. None.

There is no reason to fire him until the end of the season at this point. We waited too long, so we may as well finish the last 3 games and say our goodbye then.

Goodbye for 3 weeks holidays. Because he is our manager until this time next year at least.

 

[magicjuan]

This is a big choice for Evertonians, do they tolerate the dismal outlook with lardarse or try and effect change for next season, because time is fast running out.

To me and quite a few others its down to him or us. We probably need to make that known sooner rather than later.

I can see why people want it to be a wind up (myself included) but as you say...not likely.

I know you hate Moshiri but really? He's sacked two managers and oversaw £200m+ of player recruitment but has no interest in team development?

Sacked Martinez for finishing 11th but is happy with Allardyce sitting in 8th a few points above 11th?

I don't buy it.

So why did he offer a 6 month contract, then settled on an 18 month deal?

He said a lot more than that Joey.Planning transfers and pre-season with the clubs owner?

Probably because Martinez had a pre-season and the full season to get us there.

Fast approaching agreement with @davek myself.

Going to the Southampton game, and being the world's worst uncle, am taking my nephew too. Probably my last for a while if he stays.

Won't stop supporting Everton obviously, but how to hell can almost £200 be justified once a month to travel to Liverpool to watch at best a completely soulless 1-0 against a Championship quality side?

Moshiri is unforgivable if he sticks with Allardyce and if we accept it by showing up at the game, doing all the stuff we should do as fans basically, we'll be complicit in this club wasting yet another chance.

Fed up.
