I wouldn’t pick McNeil now Danjuma is fit he would definitely start for me over McNeil who has been piss poor for months.

I said last week Luton were done, the fight as gone from the players and the manager, I saw it last week in their demeanour and faces and it’s still here this week. All we need to do is win 2 and draw 1 and we stay up, Luton are definitely down with Sheffield and Burnley.

That way they can make sure we get relegated.

But not so if you are the messiah.

Does anyone know what’s written in the contract, if they have made a provision in case he never played 20 games over 3 years then fair enough, but I find it difficult to believe that anyone would have considered that that would ever materialise, he came to us as a nailed on first teamer who wouldn’t struggle to get into a team well below his perceived standards. Unless of course Spurs new they were selling a player that wasn’t going to make the grade.

He also needs a reality check I’ve never read or heard anyone call him the messiah.

Yes I would rather the truth, I think the smack around the head and the fact that Godfrey kept him out of the team for weeks when we hadn’t won a league game for 3 months, is more than enough to tell me what he really thinks of Patterson, so now he knows he can’t play for the rest of the season he gives him praise, but never mentioned him when he wasn’t injured. Absolute bollocks.

Very strange sounds like he’s trying to blow smoke up Pattersons arse in an attempt to build bridges.

Fingers crossed it works out that way

I agree if and when he’s out of contract Spurs will have no say on where he can and can’t go and at what costs.

I like the Carsley shout

I think we would win that game 2-1

Yeah I forgot that bit apologies Matt wasn’t meant to look like I was calling you out, more to show I’ve been consistent in my opinions of Dyche even if some haven’t, or as yourself you have a different opinion which you make a good argument for. But isn’t it good to have different views yet not fallout over them, it’s like we’re big boys now, see you at play time

I didn’t celebrate the triple substitutions at half time, if you read the match posts you will see I wanted it changed at 2-0 to give us a chance at possibly getting back into the game, but I said he will wait till it’s 3-0 when we will have no chance of getting that back, but no he didn’t budge then he waited till it was 4-0 and half time before trying to change that was lost at 3-0, so no Matt I don’t celebrate his changes at half time, I condemn him for letting it get to 4-0 before making a change. Can’t you see that’s the actions of manager who can’t manage the team or the game, he’s not changing the story as his favourite sound bite is every week, he’s not capable of changing the story for the better, but he’s doing a stellar job at making it worse. I know it’s all about opinions Matt and I respect yours, some of the things you have mentioned can’t be ignored or denied and of course they have effected the team over time, but he’s not for me mate he’s making basic mistakes when it comes to team selection and tactics which is making a poor situation so much worse.

Exactly manager’s are paid to coach and make plays better than the have been it’s a big part of the job criteria, Dyche has gone backwards not forwards, he doesn’t understand the strengths and weaknesses of his players and doesn’t except his own frailties. We got the players they are definitely not the best the league but are far from the worst, they are disheartened and disinterested with what the manager is saying and doing, it doesn’t take a genius to see that they’ve had enough of the tactics and crap spoken from him, someone at the club needs to get him out so we can move forward.

I look at our remaining games and with probably misplaced expectations / optimism I believe we will stay up, but then I think about Dyche who’s he going to pick, what’s he going to do tactically, and how are the players going to respond to those tactics and it fills me with fear. We have players that are equally as good or not better on paper than quite a few teams in the league, but we play the ugliest style of football in the league it’s shockingly embarrassing to watch and for a majority of our players must be soul destroying to play week in week out, yet the one thing that sets us apart from these other teams and there is no doubt that we unequivocally have the worst manager in the league. For those of you who live in and around the city you won’t hear what other fans think of our football you will only hear the shite from the shite fan’s and the wtf going on between the Evertonian’s, you need to try living and working where I am and listen on a daily basis to what supporters who know you are an Everton fan have to say, yes there is plenty of sympathy from the wider footballing community, Everton are a very much respected club with supporters around the country. But what these fans rival supporters say about our manager and our style of football is heart wrenching to hear and there’s no argument you can have with them because they are fucking right, and it’s basically we are shit because our manager is shit. Yet there are so many Evertonian’s who sucked in by Dyche and his 18 months of talking a good job, because they are cocooned in this small environment of Liverpool and don’t hear what the rest of the country and their fans think of us, the useless fucker is getting away with turning us week by week into the worst team in the league and the worst team I can remember in my 57 years of supporting this club, and this story he relentlessly goes on about every week that we need to change and he needs to change, will only change when the worst manager ever to set foot in this club is shown the door, and only then can we start along the long road to building a better future on the pitch.

I accept all that you both have said, but what I can’t accept is the brand of football the players are being asked to play, whether they work hard or not it doesn’t disguise the fact that we are playing football using the tactics of a team from the amateur leagues. We can all get nostalgic about Everton the badge the motto and what the team means to us, that’s deep rooted in our hearts soul and psyche and a given, yet one of most deep rooted traditions is how we like to see our teams trying to play football and that hasn’t been mentioned. Have you considered that the fans are struggling to get behind the team because they are struggling with what’s being put in front of them, because I am I will be honest as much as I’m trying to get behind the team what I’m seeing in the way tactics and team selection is making it very hard. The club I have loved and supported for 57 years is being destroyed by a shite owner and imo a manager who is completely inept.

No you’re not losing your mind you’ve just had far too much beer and not enough milk in the past and it’s effected your memory. You could have been playing for Accrington Stanley

I’ve given up on religion as a reliable way of getting what you want, I’ve been praying for weeks now that Dyche gets sacked.

I agree their not giving up on buying us because there hardened Everton fans it because they can see a quick buck in it for themselves. But what concerns me is where are all these others who are interested in buying the club surely by now with 777 struggling to raise the money they would be throwing their hats in the ring, for me it seems like it’s 777 or bust.

The dropping of Gomes says everything we need to know about Dyche, his tactics and abilities as a manager. Honestly is there anyone on here who believes Gomes should have been dropped, and if there is meet me in the car park so we can sort this out properly

The only option I can see that is available to us to change things around now is to sack Dyche, we can’t bring any players in so we have to finish this season with what we have, but we can bring in is another coach to try and give us and the players a different approach and attitude, because results show that Dyche’s approach clearly isn’t working and the players aren’t buying into any more

When a manager of any club goes on a run like he has that search becomes automatic, Dyche’s only saving grace is we have an owner who’s not interested in making any decisions when it comes to running the club.

Cheers Haf I’m appreciative of your support. My first job is to sack Dyche and then to get Rooney and Baines to take temporary charge of the team. 2 ex players who know what it means to give your all for the badge.

Not for me to say, but just because I can’t say that means he gets to keep his job even though he can’t do it, if Thelwell hasn’t been doing his homework to find a replacement in the last two months then he needs to be sacked as well.
