StevO Posted December 28, 2021 Report Share Posted December 28, 2021 Can’t imagine anyone at the club looking at it and then telling him it was his own fault. So who’s going to carry the can? Or does the reviewer take the easy option and blame people who have already left the club? Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So who’s going to carry the can? Or does the reviewer take the easy option and blame people who have already left the club? More than likely! I am not really sure it should take all that long to review either. The Director of Football wasnt allowed to full control over footballing affairs. We repeatedly hire managers that do not fit in with the traditional ethos of the club nor play football in a way in which the fans expect. We repeatedly buy players at the wrong end of the pay and fee spectrum (less so since Brands), who dont fit into the type of player that fit into how the fans what to see their football being played, nor the manager so it seems. We just need to stop pretending that we are on the edge of the big clubs and that in buying a few high profile players will change that. It never does. We need a good core of players that work hard and can play how the manager wants them to. Build slowly season after season. Adding quality as we go, but not at the expense of the clubs finances nor of the underlying principles of an Everton player. No more primadonnas wanting a big pay day that we can't move on towards the end of their contracts.

Also there are a lot of players in the PL who never started out in the top leagues.

You have to bear that in mind when you are assessing players. Playing up against bad players in a bad league can make a player look better than they are. It just increases the risk of purchasing a player when compared to someone who has been there and done it at the highest level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Can’t honestly see the problem with it myself, I think having football people on the Board is a step in the right direction Out of Sharp, Denise, Bill and Moshiri my money is on Sharpie having the most footballing knowledge Gwlad, Shukes and Palfy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 (edited) Nothing wrong with this for me. He is in a position that doesn’t give him director responsibility. He has vast knowledge of the club and loves the club as much as we do. I also applaud the club for looking after their own. I run my business along the same lines…. Bring friends and those who supported me along. Probably helps he was one of my favourite players growing up and the first No9 I got to witness. Edited January 5, 2022 by Shukes I’m thick!

No, it’s a non exec position not DOF, and as had been mentioned it’s good to have someone with football experience on the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
