Sam Allardyce

[CahillsCornerFlag]

If the plan is actually for him to “see out his contract” I’m going to start breaking things. That’s basically saying we know we don’t have a future with Sam but let’s throw next year away and set the next manager back even more by giving Sam the next two windows even though we know he’s not a long term option. It seems to me it has to be either sack or extension and if there’s an extension there will be riots. Nothing makes sense besides sacking him.

This is the situation in a nutshell really. If he stays on, and Moshiri is trying to “consolidate” our position in 8th for another year, then he’s badly misjudged how the prem works and the fans feel, Sam will be out by Christmas and it’ll be another year wasted. The fans won’t have it Mosh, so don’t even think about wasting another year whilst our neighbours are gunning for the league.

Ive become so desperate that im ok with Silva now. Anyone but not that gravy snorting jabba da hutt

Haha, this is what moshiri wanted. You have been lead a merry dance by the board. If Silva is the intended target them we might as well go home now....we do not need any more losers at this club

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Pretty definitive stance from Esk there lol obviously not ITK, but he's been very confident of this outcome for a while.

 

[davids]

Not even the journos mentioned it though?

Maybe it's a conspiracy to keep him out of the loop.Very odd he isn't up to date with team affairs.A good sign?

I think this is right and no takers means Fonseca and LVG have turned us down.
From memory Alan Myers tweeted 7 managers said no to Mosh last time. Only Sam and Silva were interested.
Since Mosh offered 10m for Silva his team produced relegation form whereas Sam's team, Everton, produced top 6 form. Why on earth would a businessman now want to pay another 10m in compo to swap Sam for Silva?
Sam sounds like he believes he'll be working with Brands and if rumours he's playing a weakened team today are true it'll be further evidence he's preparing for life at EFC next season by trying out fringe players

If by fringe players you mean Beni, Funes Mori, Klaassen and Vlasic for Jags, Schneids, Rooney and Bolasie, I'll take that.

But you told us fonseca was a done deal....
What happened. Were you making things up

 

[Azza]

Christ, Marco Silva... He uses enough gel in his hair to fill out Katie Price's enhancements

 

[Neiler]

I respect his work, he’s piped a few Evertonians right down. All cos they want some quilt in a mask.

I can’t see him being sacked based on his final finishing position.

I have to say i agree with you mate.

And yet the same posters insist there were plenty of other options to Allardyce,and Silva didn't have enough interest (thankfully) to push the issue.

Another scenario, is that he stays with the understanding that he has very limited funds and trims the squad in the meantime, paving the way for the new manager to start from scratch.

What better person to the clubs dirty work, than someone who has skin like a Rhino and is already universally unpopular.

It`s all guess work at the mo, until the club says yes / no, nobody knows what`s going on.

I won`t be going again, until he leaves the club.

He gives the impression he has skin like a rhino mate but he really doesn't. Every bit of criticism hits him like a bullet between the eyes.

He's a narcissist, cant take criticism, can't ever be wrong. Will always hold a grudge
Always somebody elses fault. And is hateful to anyone who crosses him. He:s arrogant, calculating, spiteful and envious. Have you noticed that whatevet cross he happens to be wearing always turns out to be the hardest to bear.

Oh and he plays crap togger too.

 

[Barnfred 55]

Don’t fret chaps, take the ITK stuff with a pinch of salt.

We can’t control events and if he’s leaving we’ll hear soon enough.

That’s about it really.

Yeah but. What if he stays?.

Aaagghhhh!!

I see you found somebody who agrees with you. Nice one.

Hmmmm you were adamant that Fonseca was a done deal

Is this now not the case , another failed wannabe ITK, I hope not

Managers rarely take a step down,and sad to say right now for those at the top of their game that's what we are.

Does anyone else think he has a very good eye for a player looking through his transfer history he has signed some real unknown gems in specific contexts that have made huge contributions as well as assessing squad and finding players to add to the quality of it. To be honest ihadnt gone through his transfer history before but i think its quite good, i was surprised.
