    It's still pissing me off that Pawson was allowed to ref this match.
    He's booked one red shite player in 36 games now and given no red cards, and has now sent off 5 of ours in 24 games he's reffed us.
    If that's not bias then I don't know what is.

    Having watched MOTD last night, the failure to book Konate for the 2nd office is the biggest bug bear, every other similar tackle received a booking. Going to 10vs10 would have taken some of the pressure off, but in reality who knows.
    It just feels very unjust.

    Hi a request to you all, im coming to Liverpool to see Family, and go to the Brighton game,on the 4th of November, that was the plan, but i failed miserably to get a ticket the day they went on sale to the general public, so now all the touts have them and want a £100 a ticket plus, so im reaching out to my fellow Blues to see if anyone can come up with 2 tickets for me and my son. Its going to be my last visit to GP, a place i first went to in 1958. Finger's crossed 🤞 Happy to pay the going rate, if anyone is unable to attend.
    Thanks.

    I think the past couple of results are maybe a better reflection of how we have been playing this season and generally under Dyche. After the window, the squad is now probably more of a reflection of what he would like to be working with. 
    Hard to count what happened last season as was it was well and truly backs against the wall for a weak squad (with DCL missing) and club in termoil from the moment he arrived. 
    How nice it would be to go through at least one full season with the same manager and allowing him to develop a team over 3 or 4 transfer windows.

    This argument comes around every year and I just don’t get it, what is the point of the club if it’s not to win football matches?
    I was lucky enough to bump into Kevin Sheedy and Kevin Ratcliffe on a night out in Liverpool last month and they both said the same thing when I asked them about how players feel and they both said they would have been banging on the managers door demanding answers if ever they were rested
    I know it was a different era but they won the lot with a squad of about 15. Momentum and confidence is still huge in todays football  so unless there are injury / fitness concerns around certain players we should be putting out our strongest possible team and going all out to win every match we play in

    The ball to DCL for his goal was superb, the only one of our midfield who could see a pass like that.

    It's been coming since the "Premier" League was founded. Chipped away at the soul of the sport, of clubs, exploiting peoples emotions for profit at any opportunity. 
    The more I write, the more I wonder why the fuck I still bother. If it wasn't for this place I probably would've said goodbye when Moshiri took over.

    But that stats are showing we're creating more, a lot more, vs last 2 years? 
    Like I said further up, there's nothing to be happy about but plenty to be optimistic about. The squad is adapting, change just takes time and patience.

    There is very little we can do about Moshiri selling to 777, so we may as well get behind it and help rejuvinate the club on the back of new owners. We wanted Moshiri and Kenwright out. Looks like we are getting it.
    The club is obviously in trouble and not looking in a great place financially. 777 must have confidence in the professionals they have in there organisation to make Everton a better 'club'.
    If their ultimate goal is to 'sell' the club and make a profit in 5 or 10 years time, I don't have a problem with this. To make a profit or make the biggest profit then they have to get the club to a better place, both off and on the pitch. Making Everton great again is in 777 best interest. It will not be from selling the family silver so to say.
    They might be looking for fans to also spend more. However, if you get good value in what we are expected too buy be it beer or food outside the stadium or insurance or flights through sister companies etc then this can only be a good thing long term. Revenue is going to be key, but not a problem if we get value for our money.
    There will be changes, and some we probably we will not like. However, to be a Premiership club and a good one at that, we have to play the corporate game now. We are going to have to expect to pay higher match day ticket prices etc. I am sure if we got to see some decent football that would be more palatable. Sadly some may be priced out. 
    777 make have to crack a few eggs to make an omelette, it may feel worst before it gets any better.
    It's all very much fingers crossed.

    Unfair criticism of him just now.
    The team, in my opinion, is now shaped really well (in context to where we have been!) to both create and score goals.
    If that doesn't happen, then it's fair enough to call him out.
    We are, at the end of the day, a bottom third team. We'll see more shit than good no matter who is manager.
    I personally think he knows what he wants to do and is working towards that. He's never going to set the world on fire and give us all errections but if he can give us a bit of security, it's job done.

    I’m torn. Part of me says we need to stick with and at least give him a chance. He’s barely had time to put his stamp on the team and we’ve had key players out (in a team with no depth).
    On the other hand, I don’t feel he’ll last the season anyway, so why prolong the agony. 
    But then on the other hand, we can’t keep changing managers every 5 minutes. 
    But on the other hand, we are abysmal to watch.
    FFS, you need at least four arms to support this team!

    Don't see the point of sacking him, that's what we have done for the last 10 years, that's why we are were we are, give him 3 years then judge him, if we go down we go down and come back stronger, we have got to stop this sacking the manager as some sort of plan to avoid relegation.
    Its been said on here many times keep doing the same thing, keep getting the same results.

    Don't think there's anything to be cheerful about, mate. There are signs to be optimistic about though. I just don't see the fans being patient enough to find out.
