I am the 17th. Come at me.

The last time there was a breakaway was 1892.....

If you don't agree with a fellow Evertonian then you need to convince him/her by your argument, not by ridiculing their stance.

You have got to be fair. It seems that if anyone agrees with the BU etc they are slated and ridiculed for there stance (1 man and there dog, pub gang etc). It has become a stand off with no common ground. I have yet to hear a convincing argument for why the board should remain but instead they just berate anyone who stands against them.

Sadly I can't see any of them options happening

If it's put to them on the record in that manner then they have to respond very carefully as it's spot on and a winning hand in a debate.

How can they refute it?

Are you going to enjoy another 20 years of winning nothing, and slowly getting overtaken by the likes of the stokes and the Swanseas?

Will you be happy with the next generation of evertonians growing up thinking of us as just another mid table side

I can pick fault with the board all day long ..... and yes there is more than enough things to criticise over the past decade and a bit. I'm not denying that.
but not winning anything for 20 years is the furthest of my issues ........ first and foremost the club should be run right with a sound business plan.
stoke and Swansea ... stoke just broke their transfer record didn't they ? 12-13 million ... we spent 28 million on 1 player last year ffs.
last 2 seasons we had a 5th place finish and played in Europe ? have stoke or Swansea even come close to either ? nope.
there is also over 2 weeks left of the transfer window and I can pretty much safely say , even if we bought no one , id have our squad of stoke and Swansea combined.

so yea , I don't like the board , this group don't like the board .... but we are not the same .I follow different logic and have different principles .

that banner is just ridiculous , from what it actually says , the timing of it , the size of it , and where its being shown.

I have never critised them for standing up to the Board, their objective is spot on, strategy and tactics questionable though.

Here's the banner. Clearly spent some money on getting it made.

Exactly this - my points are a call to action after many years of inaction.

I am asking which action they should take - if they choose not to then they must explain why that is a better option than the ones I propose.

Yep. To reach that point you have to have active engagement with them. That may be slightly troublesome to obtain.

Looks great in someone's hall mate that's 1.5 X 2.5, could be a real struggle reading it when it's 800ft up mind....

You forget we sold nigh on 40 Mils worth of players to sign rom.


Sound business plan? Lets have it right, we live hand to mouth, we live off the tv money, that's not a very sound business plan


Stoke and Swansea have both played in Europe

More than what Kenwright has put into the club...

I did think that, it looks not very big. I wonder how low planes can fly over football grounds because it will be hard to read.
