Over years we’ve become obsessed or persuaded that survival is an achievement. We’re all guilty , me as much as anyone , putting pictures of relegation battles on walls like they’re cup wins . Players in the dressing room acting like it’s a champions league final .
Seeing failure as success has become the Everton way , we’re like a fighter focused by maintaining their unbeaten record . I really hoped the new owners meant we could leave this behind and we’d see the new regime usher in an era of change but nope normal service resumed .
