There is a sickness here, deep and malevolent.
- Appoint useless managers and sluice cash out of the club via your favourite agents
- Appoint the mastermind* of istanbul
- provide the mastermind* very little to work with
- have the mastermind alienate the types of James and Digne (funnily enough bigger earners)
- Appoint the mastermind* of derby, and squeak past relegation
- Side floundering, stand by new mastermind* through 6 week once in a lifetime mid season break and change Nothing!
- Get part way through the transfer window and sack the latest mastermind*
- Publicly attack the clubs support in the national media on the game day the support plan to protest
- Fail in all deadline signing attempts but transfer a youth product out
- Hide from home games
- Enjoy relegation and the suffering done to the club and the support
- Expand the away section to even out the support staying away
- Get all teary eyed as Goodison bows out, "Well, at least the old girl has seen new faces from across the land as she does her final lap, as the first cathedral to football she has a place in history that can be shared with the fine people of Rotherham, and Millwall, from Barnsley to Birmingham, they've all been made welcome to see us off..."
Yeah, be sure bill and his cronies can't wait, like some lady of the night on the cusp of retirement ready to flash her nickers one last time, it's all about the show, the spectacle, the limelight.
The club doesn't deserve this, but overwhelming parts of the nonsense brigades do. I've written previous these days are closer to that of agent johnson than ever before. I was wrong. These days are worse, and the reaper is here to collect. Goodbye what was Everton, may as well fold it and restart like rangers had to, as some plc or inc or corp or whatever. No history, no expectation, no silverwear, no greats of days gone by. Best leaving Everton FC where she is safest, away from the clutches of the criminals in charge today, locked away in time and in memory, to eventually become a shadow and then lost.
Shambles.

Nothing to do with Benitez. Ridiculous. The rot was well to see well before. The end of season with the pensioner, everybody could see that the team was on his last legs. Brands and Co killed Everton FC and NOT Benitez!

They were referenced in the first line if you'd bothered to read it. mastermind* turned up second line. he's a special case because of the strength of feeling in the fanbase already. But you knew that...

Don’t fight it lads.
Yes, we know you hate all the players, especially DCL, but it’s not going to solve anything lads.
I know you pay your money at the gate and can say anything you want, but it doesn’t achieve anything lads.

I think as a club outside the "big 6" we've been relatively spoiled since the days of Wee Davey - regular top 7 finishes, European football, a few cup Semi's and Final, millions spent, a brand new stadium on its way without any real threat of relegation up until the last year or two.
Every other side outside the scab 6 have gone down in the last 10-15 years so I do think if we drop it'll be a humbling experience for many of our fans.
Hopefully the realisation hits that this is the life of a club outside the scab 6. FFP, VAR & 5 subs ensures clubs like us go through a boom/bust cycle of top halp finishes followed by inevitable bad periods and relegation battles.
I just worry that many in the fanbase wont take the humbling well and we may well see riots at GP if the worst happens.

Everyone acting as if this mess is a shocking recent thing, it has been coming for 30 years, what the real miracle is that it hasn't happened already!

What happened 30 years ago then ?
Certain BK and his saviour complex was it that took over ?
The decline started under Peter Johnson and accelerated under BK if it wasn’t for Moyes

In pure football terms we have been second fiddle since the late 80s. By the time Kendall had returned for his 2nd spell we had fallen significantly behind by then. It wasn't irretrievable though.
As much as I'd like the Moyes era back, as someone who has seen us win league titles, I don't regard that as any form of halcyon period.
When you consider the Premier League ever-presents, plus Man City, we are the only club in that group that have been cut adrift. Clubs like Villa with a similar profile have been up and down. Forest were down for a generation.
It's largely inevitable therefore that we would go down eventually given we have never got our act together in the modern era, and competition has increased. We can't compete with Brighton and Brentford as it stands, who are our peer clubs now?
Relegation is disastrous on so many fronts, but it's been coming and not entirely due to the mismanagement since Ancelotti left. It's been coming on so many fronts and just disguised by a plethora of false dawns and false hope.
It would be a harsh reality but the pill is already bitter. If it happens I think a different club will emerge, and we would have to wait and see how things develop.

i trust them to get us relegated twice over no problem,
You just know we'd end up in the play offs.
And lose.
On penalties.
I don't think we get the changes we need to rediscover our identity as a club, without a relegation and time spent in the championship. It will be humiliating to spend the last season at GP outside the top flight, but I don't fear relegation any more. If we ever plan to rebuild, we need to do it at a level where we can win football matches regularly and achieve a sustainable style of play. We haven't played proper football in a decade now.
If we stay up this year, without huge changes we will probably go down next year. It's not sustainable and we need to get out of this cycle.
All that said, I obviously hope we don't go down, but as I said, I no longer fear the concept of relegation, just the embarassment of it more than anything.
