The blame game

[summerisle]

Brexit. Might as well blame Covid as well, the default position of the Con party.

Why did we let him keep his job after last seasons narrow escape?

To be fair he earned the right to have another go, and nobody better was going to come then

Surely all that's all Putin, then again thinks of Usmanov so perhaps not.

Here's my top 10.
Feel free to play along.

1. Moshiri - world's stupidest billionaire
2. Kenwright - created culture of failure + mediocrity
3. DBB - regional sales manager for DFS
4. DOFs - catastrophic, every one of them
5. Players - everything's been said
6. Koeman - never recovered from him, did it to Valencia
7. Flunkies - Executive team + Sharp, Ferguson, Unsworth et al
8. Media - mainly Echo, but they've all cozied up to Bill. McNulty + Hunter did right thing. Eventually.
9. Happy clappers - mugs, could be higher
10. Ex players - only Southall, Stubbs said anything

hard to argue with any of that the echo shud be higher though for me

If its rotten at the top sure as will be rotten at the bottom, fish head tails and all that.

I’d move happy clappers up to 7th, other than that it’s bang on

This is tremendous. You could make a Netflix disaster documentary out of it!

I'd swap 1 and 2 around as No 2 was the enabler for No 1 and did the groundwork. Otherwise spot on.

 

[Rita_Poon]

Probably have to go back to the Martinez team that I actually liked players. Gareth Barry was my last Everton love.

This far in to mention Dr In-ten-sity and not even negatively.

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

Spending money badly hasn’t been the cause, it’s the symptom. The owner and board forgot how to be Everton, or tried to be something else. And I guess initially and briefly we cheered them on as they did this.

Buying players that are just the wrong sort and didn’t align with the soul of the club (which can’t be changed by anyone) was doomed to fail, irrespective of their quality.

If Moshiri took 1/10th of the cash he’s wasted on players and put it only on the academy, scouting network, and strong persistent links with clubs in European leagues, and told the manager and fans to just be patient, our progress would have been organic but guaranteed, our finances would have been self sustaining, the owner would have been richer and we’d be an attractive profitable investment, and vitally we’d have still been Everton.

What I’m watching now is only Everton due to Goodison and the supporters.

 

[4737carlin]

All roads point to Chairman Bill Kenwright.

Until that cancer is excised from the club, and until people grasp that nettle of truth, nothing will ever change at this club.

Relegation is his very fitting legacy.

Not the person who he sold the club too over 6 years ago? Who then kept him at the club for the following 6 plus years? Moshiri could of excised him for the club years ago, but he refuses to do so, still.

 

[ToffeeTim]

The happy clappers should be higher than no.9

 

[paultheblue]

Nope, he is there, line 6

You could name him mate I won't tell anyone
