cant wait for the 'i told you so's' directed at me when we sign Young

I know times are hard and we are skint but we have to spend some cash .it might not be what we want .But if we got relegated it would cost us millions and even Everton aren't that stupid to not try and prevent that

Exactly. Young is an us accepting relegation signing, if that is our 'statement of intent'

Not really. I think that was about the third or 4th post I’d made in this thread. And this is likely to be my last for a while

I know 'while' has a lot of variability but when it's only 30 minutes the 'I hate you all while slamming the door' effect comes across as a bit dramatic

I am well aware of that I am just trying to bring a sense of perspective to the delusional nature of many of the posts here

Me too!

You know that was never happening

It must be hard for thelwell going into bid when he knows he ain't got a chance

He bid for ellis simms a day after he signed for Coventry

The longer it goes on without signing anyone shows how lost we are and we deserve a right good flogging

Signing Young is the exact opposite of accepting relegation. He would only be on a 1 yr contract so why pay him wages if you accept relegation knowing that he is leaving for when you are in the Championship (assuming that accepting relegation means you expect to be relegated). Buying a 19/20 prospect with no experience and needing some time playing adult football would be accepting relegation as he would get a season of experience and then be ready for the Championship. Signing a player that has won just about everything that can be won in football for his final season playing football is taking a risk that he will have another good season in the PL, like he did last season, and will contribute to helping Everton avoid relegation, then his contract will be up and he leaves.
You may not like the idea of signing Young as it suggests a small budget for the summer and Dyche looking for players that will do a job for the next season as it is not planning for the future nor investing in young talent which could be part of an Everton team for years to come or could be sold at a profit. But saying it is accepting relegation is just not the case
