Can't some of us be Rom fans AND Everton fans? Why do we have to choose?
Right now I'm just along for the ride. I would love to see him stay, but if it isn't meant to be, then so be it. Everton has a long and decorated history without the guy, and we will continue to win trophies once this current crop of players are long gone. Hopefully the current team can win us something as well.
No manager or player will ever be bigger than Everton. Nil Satis Nisi Optimum.
