It was said last year we are the worst run club in Europe, nothing has changed, whilst it will be Frank who carries the can, its the owners we need out of the club.

I just hope they show the spirit they showed against the shite, and city, and not what they showed against wolves and Bournemouth.
Its no good just being up for it in so called big games, When in fact the teams around us are the big games.
Although Brighton  are not in a relegation battle, they are home game we must win.
COYB 

Absolutely this cannot be laid fairly and squarely at the door of Lampard, the board of directors and the owner are the biggest reason for our demise over 7 year reign. I truly believe that relegation is coming this season and will turn out to be a blessing in disguise, we need the time and opportunity to completely strip back and rebuild for a better future, the buying of players of poor quality every season just to try and fight off relegation is becoming a huge drain on the club financially and the supporters emotionally, sometimes constantly fighting the same battle doesn't win you the war, you need to accept your losses pull back and give yourself time to rebuild and rethink your strategies, then come back more stronger and more competitive. As a fan base I think it's time to acknowledge and accept our fate, then hopefully enjoy the rebuild and better football. Personally I would love Rooney to come back and organise the rebuild on the playing side of things, and a new owner with a new board.  We can all dream I know but we need something symbolic to get away from this nightmare, and relegation could be the answer and opportunity we need. 

Not really. Pretty predictable as we look like a team more likely to concede than score.
when we attack we are more likely to give the ball away.  
 
im not sure lampard has the ears of the players. 

This is Everton, we buy at top dollar, then give them away.

His mother's a wee Scottish lass, don't you know...

Hope this puts the Martinez rumours to bed, best team in the world and he won FA with them for the last 6 years.
He still does not practice defending set pieces, he is good at making world class players look very ordinary. 

I would have no issue with him making  changes but there is a huge difference between throwing in a few fringe players and changing the entire XI
Even worse when he also changed the formation and most of the defence that night had hardly kicked a ball all season.
Throwing XI players who haven’t played together all season in an unfamiliar formation was only ever going to end one way. It was a complete capitulation that only served to put extra pressure on us and give them a much needed confidence boost before the league game
Yes it was practically two different teams for the league game but their crowd was buoyed by the fact they had just twatted us a few days earlier , it also took the pressure off their players who had gone 4 defeats on the trot before playing us,  as soon as they went in front our heads dropped and there tails were up because everyone knew it was going to be the same outcome
That last week before the World Cup break has put an entirely different complexion on the season and it was so avoidable
 
 

As I said before, I'd like the clock to be stopped when the ball's dead; works perfectly well in other sports and then everybody knows when the game's over.

Great come back from the boys from the valleys. Should have gone on to win. 

I don't understand the 7 countries that have buckled to Infantino, and his corrupt group, at the threat of a yellow card, not decapitation, a yellow card.
Take it, after all the fuss afterwards they would have to back down or lose there tournament, and if it carries on make someone else captain in the next game.
We are playing Iran, not Brazil, this is so spineless, and i can only apologise to those who have campaigned for so long to put things right.
Whatever the FA come out with they have sold us all down the river, at the threat of a yellow card, they have disgraced them selves and us.
 

If Kane does not wear it, it will send out the message we weren't that bothered about it.
Fifa have known for a long time what we had in mind and said nothing till 24 hours before the game.
One man does not run world football, tell him to do one, and wear it, pass it pound the team and all take a booking, its only one game, make them change dont back down.
No battle was ever won without sacrifice. Infantino has shown with his rants he is a clueless bully.  

Tim Ream channeling his inner Harry Maguire there  .

Players dive and cheat at the risk of a yellow card all the time, but they haven't got it in them to get one to wear an armband to show support for a persecuted group of society.
Absolutely fucking pathetic.

If he does wear it, does he get the booking and have to take it off, or can he keep it on?
I absolutely think he should go out wearing it. The pictures will go all round the world. It's a massive statement.
Not that he's looking for it, but Kane would achieve iconic status. It would also embarrass FIFA - no bad thing. Utterly corrupt organisation.

If the ref's had anything about them they'd refuse to give the booking out too. It's absolutely ridiculous.

I agree but is that relevant after 2 games, we have had years with different managers and not fought like that.
 
Its much more deep rooted with us, i would not be surprised if Frank was told to play a 2nd string side, by the owners who are probably in talks with RM now, to take over at xmas. Its changes at the top we need.

I hope that as we’re now 5 days after our last game, the thoughts of the board of replacing Frank will have disappeared. Both he and the squad are good enough to avoid relegation, changing manager yet again will only produce more turmoil.

Easily done if you have Lukaku up front, and personally I think Martinez would be a disaster
Im starting to calm down a bit now, although still pissed off with Frank I agree we can’t just keep changing managers and I think that’s the only thing keeping him in the job
On paper his backroom staff are extremely impressive and to be honest I would love us to be able to play the kind of football Lampard wants us to play and I quite like him as a bloke, especially as he seemed to have bought into the ethos of the club and the city
I was fully onboard with him, especially after the Palace game but he lost me last week as soon as he threw the first Bournemouth game, which backfired massively 
He needlessly put us on the ropes with those two complete capitulations against fellow relegation candidates and I’m convinced he would have been gone by Christmas if we hadn’t had this break
Lets hope he uses the time wisely
