2023/24 Sean Dyche

[MikeH72]

Don’t get that at all mon rouge.

I’m sad to leave Goodison, but it shows how far we’ve fallen mate - I don’t want to hold on to that, even though I will miss the place.

I’m holding onto BMD and the potential better future for our club there, if we can survive the next couple of years.

What good has ever come of holding onto the past?

Goodison is the past. I want to move forward and forge a new identity as a club. I want everything to do with Goodison to be left in the past and confined to history.

Problem for Dyche is when we lose, it looks/feels much worse given the turgid style of play. When we're picking up points, fans kinda accept it and get on with it but make no mistake, we play the worst football in the league. Absolute hoofball team and that's the way Dyche's teams have always played, so he's not going to suddenly abandon that.

I bet if Dyche was still at Burnley they would be top there as well.

My first game was a 3-1 win v Chelsea in 1998. Gary Speed scored. I was also at the Coventry game with my dad and went on the pitch at the end, I was only 6 years old at the time.

I held a season ticket with my dad during 2001/02 and 2002/03 in the upper Gwladys and was a member of the Junior Blue scheme if you remember that.

Despite not having a season ticket we used to go fairly regularly between 2004-2010, then I got my first adult season ticket with my mate where we sat in the top balcony. I held that from 2011-2019 when I eventually handed back as I’d simply stopped enjoying going the game. During the period I held that season ticket I went to around 3-4 away games per season including Lille and Atalanta in the Europa League.

I’m sure nobody asked for an extensive history of my life growing up and attending Goodison but seeing as you were so confident I’d never been in my life I thought I’d just give you a brief overview, thanks Charles x

Fair play. I wasn't suggesting you hadn't been to Goodison. Just genuinely surprised that any fan hasn't got the place in their heart for the place.

Back on to thread - Dyche isn't worthy of our history!

Back on to thread - Dyche isn't worthy of our history!

As I’ve said, Goodison is now the past for me. I have no happy memories from the past 10 years. I don’t include the games where we’ve scraped survival in that. I’m ready to move forward and reinvent the entire identity of the club, and we can’t do that while we’re still there. It’s a ball and chain around our ankles, only reminding me of the disastrous tenure of the last 30 years now. We can’t move soon enough for me, it’s why I’m fuming about the nonsensical decision to leave the new ground empty for 6 months while we “say goodbye”.

Everton are in a mess for various reasons. In my view the sole purpose of Dyche is to keep us in the Premier League. Last season he succeeded and this season he would comfortably succeed apart from a points deduction which is beyond his control. If the club ever gets on an even keel I imagine Dyche will go but until then he is doing a fair job under very difficult circumstances

HOOOOF

HOOF isnt a bad tactic if you have players to pick up the 2nd ball.

he does what get points

we aren’t madrid mate

Not when our midfielders are 20- 30 yards away - Garner looks about the best atm attacking wise - maybe Harrison should play there or should I dare say the best of our under 23s midfielder?

that’s why he said midfielders pick up the ball

we have to change something asap

 

[Simon Buttle]

Not many teams are mate but plenty of teams in a variety of countries and in a variety of leagues are able to play a bit of footy and are not resorting to hoofball during every game. He has to change something at the moment as I think teams are starting to work us out a bit

 

[Dixieslaces]

Whatever is happening now, or has happened over the last few years of idiocy and financial mismanagement, the one person who is NOT to be blamed is Dyche.
Whether you like him or not or whether you want him long term or not isn't the issue, the question or the focus of blame.
Dyche has done a good job so far given the absolute parlous circumstances surrounding him.
He is NOT the problem any halfwits chucking abuse in his direction need to give their heads a shake.
Needs must as the Devil drives and he's the best we have and the best we could get if we didn't have him.
I'm not a great fan, but he's done a better job that the last two.
You want to vent and shout and blame? Don't direct it at Dyche, none of this mess is down to him.

Sean, go to bed we gotta game Tuesday
