2024/25 Sean Dyche

The bigger question is why is he playing 90 minutes for the Under 21s and not the first team 24 hours before?
Because he can stroll through an U21 game and see if he’s fit enough, with our record he’d had gone off after 20 mins yesterday and out til new year.
You’re also forgetting who our manager is.
 
So with 25% possession at home does that mean for every 2 minutes Southampton had the ball we had only 30 secs with the ball? 😲
No that's 20%.

If in a 2 minute spell they had the ball for 1.5 minutes and we had it for 0.5 minute then that would be us having 25% possession.

OK every one minute Soton had the ball we had 15 seconds on the ball
No that's still 20%.

If in a 1 minute spell they had the ball for 45 seconds and we had it for 15 seconds then that would be us having 25% possession.

Isn't 25% a quarter so 1 minute divided by 15 secs = 25%/1 quarter............just asking
1 minute divided by 15 secs = 60 seconds divided by 15 secs = 4...........just saying.
 


And his critics aren’t angrily critical?
His critics have every entitlement to be: his record this season is appalling and his football worse.

But - and this is where I part ways with them - the real issue is upstairs. Nothing will change until the ownership changes. It is in the boardroom where the critical dysfunction is. And that's where genuine anger should be directed.

So, for me: Dyche was a necessary evil. He just about remains so. But I won't lose any sleep if somebody at Everton accidentally discovers they have power to...do something and make a change. Mind you, given their track record of decision-making, perhaps it is best if nothing happens. All in all, we're adrift and on a wing and a prayer until the ownership changes hands. Everything else is choreography and demonstrative acting out.
