Losing 3-2 at Burnley last season because Ben Godfrey couldn’t put his foot through the simplest slow moving ball I’ve ever seen is up there just missing out on the top 3.

Probably this for me as I genuinely thought we were down then. That Jonjoe Kenny cameo in that game is probably the worst performance I’ve ever seen from any player at Everton ever.
 

The lowest point for me was 20 years ago, three years into BK's regime. I vowed after having had a season ticket for 20 years not to get another until he is gone and true to my word I havent had one. I have been to the odd home game, mainly do aways when I do go but I still feel the pain. I refuse to fuel his trainset with my hard earned cash. I was there the day we stayed up against Wimbledon, I was a teenager but the game against Palace just gave me PTSD. I am at the point whereby Saturday for example was a huge game and to avoid the disappointment took my daughter to the cinema instead, she enjoyed that, I saved a ton (didnt buy pick n mix!) and the only disappointing bit was checking the result and even then wasnt that surprised.
As may arl fella said in 1984 to me 'its hard being an Evertonian' and he has never said truer words than that. I fear more than ever that our time in the top tier of English football is up and its heart breaking.

Here’s a cheerful thread for a Thursday evening. My personal top 3 is:

1. The 4-1 derby defeat under Benitez last season when they all sang his name

2. The 5-2 defeat at home to Watford under Benitez last season when Josh King scored a hat trick

3. The day Benitez was appointed Everton manager

Saturday.
 
I've probably said it in this thread before but I'll say it again. The day Benitez was announced as our manager. All of this can be traced back to that day. It's not about Benitez himself, it showed how poorly the people who run the club understood the institution and what it means to people. From that point forward our eventual relegation was certain.
 


Gravy breath becomes our manager, no wait, el gordo becomes our manager...bear in mind I was sat in the front row of the Park End stand behind the middle of the scoreboard in the middle of all the banjo pluckers at the Glen Keeley derby, so use that to measure how desperate those low points are

** I still haven't come to terms with selling Alan Ball so I couldn't use that ?

Nail on the head mate, we brought bad karma on us when we hired that horrible man as our manager.
 
Every passing day with Lampard in charge and Moshiri at the helm, we ultimately sink a little bit lower every day.

We are one of those little machines in McDonald's you put money in for charity and watch it spin, starting slow and progressively speeding up as it circles round and round, until it meets it's timely ending of dropping into the chamber. We are at the progressively speeding up part.
