Finn balor Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Obviously Davey going is a big thing and a feeling of the unknown but i cant help feeling excited about a new boss. Possible overhaul of squad, bringing young players more quickly through the ranks and not playing same players week in and week out. Anybody else share my optimism?

Romey 1878 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 I do. Said the same thing in one of the threads discussing the possibility of Moyes going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Yeh me too. It will be interesting, however the excitement will all hinge on who it is we bring in. It could quickly turn to despair! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 I know can you imagine if the list is Coyle,Hughes,Benitez etc? Id be suicidal. I can imagine we are hugely appealing from a managers point of view.Virtually proven top six premier league team, top squad, no money but can sell to buy and with a chairman that lets his manager manage the old school way.I hope the new man is told the Stubbs,Duncs,Weirs are integral and are staying.

MikeO Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 I'm a bit numbed by it to be honest....not feeling bad or sad about DM leaving and really not over excited about who's coming in. Sure that'll change (I know it will) once things start to take shape but it's been a bit of a surreal day today. Suicide would only be an option if Allardyce, O'Neill or Lennon got the job.

Blueherts Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 With the extra tv revenue and felli probably doing the off, I guess the timing is right for all involved. Hopefully It will give whoever it may be a fair wedge to kick on with and regenerate the team. Davey will be remembered as a true legend who rescued us from the dark days. Lets hope the next manager can take the next step and put us back where we belong. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueherts Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) Relegation battles again well i guess we 10 good years. Why would it? Our reserves play better football than the 2002 team ever did. I would expect a slight dip next season if major changes are made, but no worse than mid table. With 30-40 million to spend and some excellent youth players coming through a good manager should have no trouble building from where we are now. Edit - please, please let it be a GOOD manager.

MikeO Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 I cant beleive people forget how shit we were before he came But why does that mean we'll be shit after he goes? He's not the only manager in the world and we have the sixth best team in the country in place. They're not going to become shit players overnight are they?

Blueherts Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 . With 30-40 million to spend Not unrealistic. Fellaini, Heitinga and maybe baines leaving. would generate maybe 25-30 mil. plus the new tv money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 I cant beleive people forget how shit we were before he came Yeah we were due to Peter Johnson pulling the rug on Joe Royle and then buying the likes of Dacourt,Collins etc with the promise of big things and investment and changing his mind. That of course led to Kendalls return and buying John O'kane, MItch Ward,John Spencer and a whole list of others. I dont forget how shit we were because i was there watching it week in and week out. People criticise Walter Smith but i dont. Ok he played horrible football and bought older players but for me he stabilised the club when we needed it but there came a time he had to go.Correct decision was made. Ok things are different now but the princibles don't Davey has been great for us but i would argue if he gets the Utd job we have been better for him. No trophies in eleven years when he has had many opporunities to do so, an easy going chairman and hugely paid. To compare the club to what it was is eleven years ago is daft as the money,player power and sky product makes the arguement redundant. With the tax problems in Spain the smart money is to get somebody in that knows the market well. Laudrup,Poyet,Martinez would be ideal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felli on his own should generate that! £20m+ for Baines (though as I said I don't think he'll go) and a few quid for Heits and we're talking upwards of £50m plus the new TV money.

Romey 1878 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 I may be getting my timeline wrong but wasnt it Smith that bought Dacourt and Collins with the NTL money that Kenwright gave to him before we actually had the money? Then NTL went bust and we were fucked. pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sideliner Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 I really believe this divorce will be in the interest of both parties - they have been good for each other but have outgrown each other - we shall see next season if any of the parties was holding the other one back or keeping it\him on his feet - best wishes to both as they now go on their own ways down the uncertain path called The Future Sibdane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only places we have fallen were directly related to Tottenham and Man City getting their huge investment. The last 2 we have been better than our bitter rival even if we haven't beaten them directly. 08-09 63Pts 09-10 61Pts 10-11 54Pts 11-12 56Pts 12-13 60Pts with 2 left I appreciate all he has done, and hope him the best in the future.

J.P Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 How the hell can anybody be excited? Moyes is a top, top manager, or as fergie described him a few months back "a first class manager." It's pretty obvious that Fergie will have had a big say in who is replacement was. I guess he doesn't know as much about footy/management as some fantasy footy managers on an internet forum. LOL.

MikeO Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 How the hell can anybody be excited? What's the alternative? It is what it is and we have to deal with it....see it as an opportunity or go cry in a corner and think about away days to Tranmere; individual choice. We've been around a long time before Moyes was born and we'll be around a long time after he's dead.....bring on the next phase! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point is, many posters on this forum have had it in for Moyes for a very long time. I'm not excited, I'm gutted!!! Just like I was gutted when Kendall mk1 left, When Lineker left and when Rooney left. But hey ho, it shouldn't be too hard to find a manager who is better than one Fergie deems good enough to succeed him at Man Utd. LOL.

pete0 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Feck all's changed in the last 6 years, I welcome a new manager. Just hoping we get one with a different/winning mentality and gives kids a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter H Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 I feel happy for Moyes! He has been brilliant for Everton. I salute him. I am scared for whats to come but thats only because Everton has been so predictable over the past few years. Stable to which isnt a bad thing. I feel excited about the possibilities and the change. Who will manage us. My first choice Laudrup wont come. My second choice Martinez looks like the favourite for the job. I feel scared for the looting DM might perform. Im excited about the possibility that Everton might be able to loot the likes of Wigan and QPR for the cash we get for Felli etc. Mixed feelings but mostly thankful for the last 11 years. Thanks DM for dragging Everton out of the relegation battles. I cant see us being there in the years to come. Sibdane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoward18 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Not even a little bit. We've seen time and time again how many teams have falled with money to spend. I don't know what manager is going to come in here and find diamonds in the rough and create a team that, as a whole, outperforms what its individual parts add up to the way Moyes has for the last decade. I'm betting that Fellaini follows him to Man U, which isn't the end of the world but certainly not desirable, and perhaps even Baines, which would be pretty awful. I'm scared shitless about this.
