Ancelotti about to be sacked by Madrid? Everton in the hunt for a new manager soon? Would you have him back? No way for mate.

stig

1.) 08 Jan 2023 14:24:14
He wants Champions League football not Championship :-)


2.) 08 Jan 2023 14:42:10
He is one of the greats. We couldn't give him the tools. We blew it. Fans should not embarrass themselves trying insinuate he isn't good enough.


3.) 08 Jan 2023 14:54:50
Not for me mate.


4.) 08 Jan 2023 16:16:51
Brown shoes, so if he was good, why he got the sack? lol.


5.) 08 Jan 2023 16:47:27
What's he win since he left? Unbelievable and you just made my point perfectly. Face-palm in disbelief. Some subjects people really shouldn't try.


6.) 08 Jan 2023 17:40:05
Seriously? Man City have lost 2 games this season. The exact same as Real Madrid who have a manager who is seen as one of the best managers of all time. Pep Guardiola anyone?


7.) 08 Jan 2023 17:47:05
Where is the news coning from he is sacked? Haven't seen it anywhere ?.


8.) 08 Jan 2023 17:51:13
Not sure going backwards is the answer.
His record cannot be questioned though.
Managed a below par Madrid team to a league and champions league double last season.


9.) 08 Jan 2023 18:04:16
He walked out on us, why would we have him back.


10.) 08 Jan 2023 18:40:57
We'd take him back as he is head and shoulders above every manager we have had in the last few decades. Who wouldn't want to swap Merseyside for Madrid, especially with the way the owner runs this club?


11.) 08 Jan 2023 19:08:46
He is not being sacked anytime soon. Plus, even if he was do any of you honestly think he would come to Everton? A big hearty laugh would be his answer I would say.


12.) 08 Jan 2023 19:27:00
So the usual OAP forum stalwarts. Jurassic Park. Yawn.


13.) 08 Jan 2023 22:07:40
Our fan base can vary from one extreme to another, FBS! There will be a considerable amount who would rather take Dyche before Carlos ?
Admittedly, CA is out of the question but still!

We, Everton have a contingency plan to put Duncan Ferguson in charge for the Merseyside derby this Wednesday should things go badly wrong for Marco Silva in the game against Leicester City.

stig

1.) 01 Dec 2019 11:27:42
Silva will be in charge for the Derby since the Echo has reported that "Morgan Schneiderlin is fit to take part against Leicester City today. " That should make us all feel more confident shouldn't it?


2.) 01 Dec 2019 12:24:59
Duncan Ferguson is certainly not the answer for us, i think him and boa morte are part of our problems, i think we need rid of all the coaching staff.


3.) 01 Dec 2019 13:27:43
I agree imperialblue, get rid of the lot.


4.) 01 Dec 2019 16:39:42
Yes. Everton need a new regime. Sack the lot of them I say.
Silva has been left hung to dry but he won't be bothered. He will be home for Xmas. We need a manager of proven quality. Someone that has won trophy's. That rules out quite a few. Chris Wilder would be my choice. What he has done for Sheff It's is amazing!


5.) 01 Dec 2019 21:15:37
He is not the answer but interim read the posts . Silva hung to dry! Your having a laugh, bloody useless is what he is, a waffler with a cracking agent.


6.) 02 Dec 2019 09:08:01
Get rid of the lot. Get rid of our stadium. Change the team. New players all round. maybe play in red? see where I am coming from guys. I still support EFC and whilst there may be problems. we are still Everton.


 

 

06 Jan 2018 19:50:25
The Mayor of Liverpool said he will be writing to the Premier League and Football Association over the deal, glad it's not only me that think something not right here?

stig

1.) 06 Jan 2018 21:37:17
30mil to buy last season of contract in summer half for half now seems fair price atm even if we have been screwed by all.


2.) 06 Jan 2018 21:47:33
While what Chelsea "may" have done doesn't seem fair to us they've done what's best for Chelsea and nothing illegal.


3.) 06 jan 2018 22:41:47
brian1878: you’re right.


 

 

04 Jan 2018 17:35:22
Burnley are interested in signing Everton winger Aaron Lennon.

stig

1.) 04 Jan 2018 18:07:17
Is he ready for that step-up :)


2.) 04 Jan 2018 18:34:06
Can we have Ben Mee in exchange?


3.) 04 Jan 2018 23:21:05
My mate who is a Burnley fan says we should have gone for Mee not Keane 🤦🏻‍♂️.


 

 

13 Oct 2017 17:47:32
Bramley Moore Dock the proposed site for Everton's new stadium, proposed so not decided?
Ian Pollitt is saying "This site is the site we're talking to Everton FC about at the moment, and all I can really say at the moment is obviously discussions are ongoing" so still nothing decided? WTF, what happened to "you will have it in 3 years" said no way and got slated here, board dragging there feet again.

stig

1.) 13 Oct 2017 19:07:01
I hear u stig but for me the team is paramount and stadium second. as a package the club needs to be attractive. so I get the importance of the stadium but right now it seems far less important to me.


2.) 14 Oct 2017 09:11:26
Yes Stig you are right the team is not the only problem, Ken&co must go.


3.) 15 Oct 2017 15:51:17
Think we have to separate the on-field and infrastructure agendas and deal with both in their own merits.
Right manager, right players, right coaching and player development is vital as we need to be challenging in top flight football and have a presence in European competitions.
Financing and building a stadium (and all that goes with it) is equally as important and the two, whilst complimentary, should be treated on their own merits.
Man City wouldn't be where they are now if they were still playing at Maine Rd.
Arsenal's off field planning has put them as one of the strongest bases for future progression in World football. (take out of that Wenger is past his sell by date)
Any decisions bases on the stadium has to look 5 to 10 years in the future.
On field crisis has to be dealt with now and that is a different mind set than running the business side of the club.


4.) 15 Oct 2017 16:41:00
Young guns, Man City were handed the golden goose in respect to their ground. It was Manchester City Council who built it and it's official name is "The Stadium of Manchester". Man City were given naming rights on a leased basis hence the name Etihad. They only lease the ground and pay around £3m per year to do so. I'm sure you will agree that's not a bad deal for any premiership side.


5.) 15 Oct 2017 17:05:35
grumpy. is that not similar to the ground deal we are hoping to get.


6.) 15 Oct 2017 18:06:21
No Dixie,

City did not pay anything for building it and own none of it. Even when they raised the seating capacity the council paid for most of it.
My understanding of our deal is that we will be paying a significant amount and will actually own part/ all of the stadium with Liverpool city council contributing to the cost, we will own the naming rights and any events held there will have to go through EFC and not the council, the reverse is true of Man City.


7.) 15 Oct 2017 18:24:00
You're right Grumpy, but it is still a 21st Century stadium fit for purpose and a draw for investment . Goodison Park isn't.
We need a new stadium, I appreciate deals have to be right and I think Moshiri is from a financing and business background that makes that the right deal.
If Liverpool Council pays any part as long as it doesn't effect the football side of the club then bring it on.
Gone are the days of clubs solely owning their home.
Our goal should be to have the best British stadium, eclipsing The Emirates, The Etihad, the new Spurs ground and even Wembley.

{Ed002's Note - I think you perhaps misunderstand what is happening with the stadium and the proposal.}


8.) 15 Oct 2017 19:19:09
I probably do Ed002,

It's an age thing, these days the things I don't misunderstand are often things I have made up.

We will sell at least two players at the last minute with no time to get new players in, just wait and see.

stig

1.) 25 Aug 2024 04:12:54
Agree ?.


 

 

23 Aug 2023 14:08:08
Everton training session was delayed nearly 2 hours today after a player reportedly found an unknown white powdery substance on the pitch.

Training was suspended and the police was called. After a complete analysis, experts determined that the white substance unknown to the players was the Goal Line.

Training resumed after the police decided the team was unlikely to encounter the substance again this season.

stig

1.) 23 Aug 2023 14:33:29
And the player was Maupay.


 

 

29 Jul 2023 18:08:47
Just seen another friendly, it was bad mates, but I do like Dobbin, we are in for a long session, again, mates say it's not a proper game, but if you have ever played at a good level you know the last two friendlies you are playing for your place in the team, Maupay again? wtf, Iwobi everywhere again but most of it wasted, don't know what you all see in him.

stig

1.) 29 Jul 2023 19:00:29
Yep we are a very poor side. Maupay is awful, he really is and so easy to defend against. Don't know how serious McNeils injury is but would be just like Everton to now farm Gray out.


2.) 29 Jul 2023 19:37:48
I don’t mind Iwobi - think he’s decent actually.


3.) 29 Jul 2023 20:21:04
Same problems, different season. We are in dire need of a goal scorer, that's been obvious for a couple of seasons now.
Dobbins has great movement and finds space well but his finishing was woeful today. Maybe it was a one off but it needs to improve if he wants to break into the squad.
Totally disagree over whether it matters or not, these games are for gaining match fitness and getting their touch back. If we had a proper striker leading the line then we might not look as dire as we currently do.


4.) 29 Jul 2023 20:21:15
Iwobi has lacked that final pass/ cross for most of his time at everton. he's got a good engine and rarely looks tired but he needs to work on his accuracy and take more shots.
Maupay? I have enough faith in Dyche to think that he knows what we know about Maupay. He must be hard to shift because i can only assume Dyche is putting him out on display for any potential buyers to see that he's fit. Its going to be a long hard season if he is our target man. Its pointless players like Pattersin and McNeil busting a gut down the wings, only to whip a cross over for a defender to head away every time.
We have to assume Maupay is Plan C if he stays.


5.) 29 Jul 2023 20:56:33
Not sure what you’re all moaning about - 4 pre season games played and undefeated.

2 wins 2 draws and only 1 goal conceded.


6.) 29 Jul 2023 21:06:04
Agree with you about iwobi TT I think he's good but not on the wing. Needs to be central but we've got no right winger. Hope he's not another square peg there for the duration of the season.

I hope Maupay isn't in any plans at all.

Maupay Keane holgate gbamin gomes all to go please.


7.) 29 Jul 2023 23:53:00
Gingerdan, chrs mate I will hold onto that.


8.) 30 Jul 2023 17:01:53
You can’t have Iwobi in the centre. The guy can’t pass a ball.


 

 

22 Jul 2023 11:52:01
There are many reasons to hate Ken&Co.
This week, we got SEVEN MILLION more reasons.
Those board members RESIGNED, remember.
They RESIGNED.

stig

1.) 22 Jul 2023 12:13:03
Agree bloody disgraceful the nerve of it after resigning what a debacle.


2.) 22 Jul 2023 13:33:39
Well you can imagine what Kenwright will get when he goes. Probably why he is still around, we can't afford to let him go.


3.) 22 Jul 2023 13:39:47
They did a terrible job, took the club to the brink of relegation, left the club close to financial ruin, resigned and then get huge compensation payments. Only at Everton!


4.) 22 Jul 2023 16:43:04
It's well known the process for Everton signing players. The DOF/ manager/ scouts identify targets. The CEo and chairman/ cfo assess if we can viably afford them. The owner signs off on them and then the chairman completes the signing of them, unless the owner over rules the process and then signs them regardless.
The owner wants Bill to remain so either back the owner in which case you back Bill or don't.

Be clear on who you are blaming and for what otherwise it just looks like a uninformed witch hunt.


5.) 22 Jul 2023 17:56:34
Plenty of blame to go around. Kenwright brought in Moshiri, both of them and the rest of the board are to blame for the state of the club. Paying out 7M pounds to the three board members who resigned is ridiculous. If this payment was written into their contracts it shows how badly this club is run.


6.) 22 Jul 2023 20:30:05
Which board? We have had numerous different boards during Moshiris reign.


7.) 22 Jul 2023 20:58:05
This whole thread was about the three Board members who resigned being given 7M pounds. Denise Barrett-Baxendale was a board member since 2016 and Grant Ingles was Financial Director from 2013 (apart from one year) and Board member since 2021. I will say nothing about Graeme Sharp. I don't believe they merited 7m pounds, if you do fine.


8.) 22 Jul 2023 23:31:50
I blame Kenwright Smit666 and have done for seasons, he just will not let go. I don't believe the BS about him resigning either. 3 scapegoats well worth 7 mill.


9.) 22 Jul 2023 23:59:49
What mystical 7million pounds is this?
If you think they were paid 7 million when they resigned then so be it, or believe Twitter or whoever told you that. It's nonsense and you all fall for it because it makes a good story.


 

 

02 Jul 2023 18:29:42
I'll keep banging on this particular drum till he's gone: KENWRIGHT openly LIED about the fans, accusing them of VIOLENCE and DEATH THREATS. M'side Police received no such reports. Which other chairman of a football club would stoop so low in order to deflect personal criticism?

stig

1.) 02 Jul 2023 19:16:00
The fact is, we will never know if it did or didn't happen.
His time is up and he does know it which is why he tried to leave in January with the rest of the board.
The owner wants him to stay so if you back the owner then you have to back his decisions. If you don't back the owner then you have plenty of time to protest against him when the season starts.
Eventually your posts and protests will have them all gone.


2.) 02 Jul 2023 19:46:53
It did not happen, deffo.


3.) 02 Jul 2023 20:03:22
It looks like George Downing will be on the board this week and i reckon be Chairman within a short space of time.


4.) 02 Jul 2023 20:30:27
Can you prove that GLT?
You sound confident.


5.) 02 Jul 2023 21:53:53
Conversely Smitt - can BK prove it happened?

The fact a big song and dance was made of it, they feared for their lives yet no police report to me speaks volumes and I’d come down on it not happening, however we’ll never really know.


6.) 03 Jul 2023 06:42:39
Absolutely Dan, The police could or would not corroborate the story leaving BK looking suspiciously dishonest.
A moment in our history we could have done without!


7.) 03 Jul 2023 06:48:29
I can smit.


8.) 03 Jul 2023 07:38:47
Then do it GLT. We are all waiting for the proof that no one seems to have.


9.) 03 Jul 2023 08:03:42
I posted it yesterday but it never got published.


10.) 03 Jul 2023 08:05:03
I've known the person in charge of security in that area for 30+ years and it did not happen.


11.) 03 Jul 2023 08:10:38
Also the amount of cctv and people with mobiles don't you think there would have been some evidence out by now. Don't believe everything you read smit.


12.) 03 Jul 2023 08:50:56
I like facts or evidence not heresay.
And until there is any either way it is unproven.
Your friend says it never happened but my friend says it did.


13.) 03 Jul 2023 09:05:43
I really don't care what others like or don't, I know what I know and it's upto others if they want to believe it. You only have hearsay that it DID happen you don't have any facts or evidence to prove it.


14.) 03 Jul 2023 09:10:35
Are you referring to the alleged headlock incident that was reported by a club source or the personal threats to Kenwright?


15.) 03 Jul 2023 09:10:55
Does your friend also work on security in that area, wow what a coincidence ?.


16.) 03 Jul 2023 09:15:24
The alleged headlock.

{Ed025's Note - there was no headlock glt, the elderly guy put his arm around DBB,s shoulder and asked her to buy some players, should he have put his arm around her?.absolutely not!, was it malicious?, apparently according to witnesses no, did it suit the agenda of the board to make a mountain out of a molehill..absolutely, were there complaints made to the authorities of the incident..no, for me this was a non-story which facilitated the board to boycott the games so as to not face the wrath of angry fans mate..


17.) 03 Jul 2023 09:23:04
No they work on the 7th floor.
You are referring to a report in the papers from a club source but say I shouldn't believe everything I read.

Read the club statements and then come back with some evidence from your pal.


18.) 03 Jul 2023 09:54:30
Ed25 agree totally mate, which does explain why the police left it be as it were otherwise there would have been interrogation and profiling with a view to charge etc.

{Ed025's Note - it just smelled a bit strange to me GD, if the board and owner needed a good reason to avoid confrontation with the disgruntled fans then this was the perfect scenario mate, if something looks like crap, and smells like crap...the odds are that it is crap, i get no pleasure out of trashing my own lifelong club i can assure you..


19.) 03 Jul 2023 10:04:00
If you count a club report from the hierarchy of Everton football club as evidence, do you know the moon is made of cheese ?.


20.) 03 Jul 2023 10:04:35
Final comment, it did not happen end of.


21.) 03 Jul 2023 10:27:04
Oh yes it did ??.


22.) 03 Jul 2023 11:13:45
Like I said. We will never know for sure what has or hasn't happened without evidence either way.

My original point was if you back the owner, he backs Bill.

{Ed025's Note - i must admit i dont trust either of them smit..


23.) 03 Jul 2023 11:32:15
Me neither and I don't back either of them. I think Moshiri is the bigger problem though.


24.) 03 Jul 2023 13:32:12
What happened again?


25.) 04 Jul 2023 02:26:27
We can safely assume that no headlock took place or there would have been an arrest or an invitation to speak at the local police station. Plenty of witnesses and possibly CCTV yet nothing came of it. For me, that's enough evidence of the event not taking place.
Stig, why not include every member of the board? Most here agree that BK needs to go so you're not really achieving anything by posting the same comments in here. Don't even think BK reads these pages mate ?.


26.) 06 Jul 2023 12:07:50
The shame is that Bills legacy with the club has been ruined by the Moshiri era

Before that he had his critics but most fans thought he'd done reasonably OK in tandem with Moyes

Now he is just regarded as Moshiri's puppet with no influence over Moshiri. At his age he didn't need the money and should have bowed out as soon as he realised Moshiri wasn't listening to a word.
