Torquay Gunner Posted 20 May 2023 Share Posted 20 May 2023 Wonder what your odds were pre season to get relegated, just did not see it ( and of course may not even happen). Terrible mismanagement by the club to be in this situation. Never understood why you did not strengthen last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinkenzo Posted 20 May 2023 Share Posted 20 May 2023 Two different presenters in the last hour on SSN have said Everton have two games left to secure their PL status, starting next weekend at home to Bournemouth what.

Terrible mismanagement by the club to be in this situation. Never understood why you did not strengthen last season. We have an incredibly poor, inexperienced, incompetent owner. His board are equally inexperienced and in parts, incompetent in football terms. He expects his ceo to run his late fathers empire and has effectively left the club to just exist. We can talk about Rodgers, recruitment etc. but ultimately, like so many before us we’ve paid the price for going from really good ownership (which is rare) to incompetent ownership. It will unfortunately keep happening to clubs of our size. We are likely to follow clubs like Bolton, Wigan, Sunderland, Blackburn and Stoke (I see a lot similarities with the last one) into mediocrity. The fella will either sell or cut costs to the absolute maximum going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, this isn't a sustainable thing. I do fear it will be years before we're back. There is too much to do. Too much to change in a very short space of time. From so much promise to back where we started, or potentially worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom27111 Posted 21 May 2023 Share Posted 21 May 2023 If I'm perfectly honest, as much as I'd like us to stay up (which we wont), I kind of want Leeds to win tomorrow, just so it's done (almost). It's like the slowest, most painful death. It's the hope that kills you. I genuinely don't think this hurts as much as when we bottled top 4 for the second season running. Especially when Chelsea lost and all we needed to do was beat a shite Spurs side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve read this a few times from lots of different people on here and I really don’t get the attitude of I just wish it was all over. For me, I look at it and think we just need 4 results to go in our favour and we’re safe. Everton loss at home to Bournemouth- biggest long shot of them all, but they could bottle it! Leeds failing to win away at West Ham and home to Spurs - even 2 draws is okay for us. We beat West Ham or Newcastle. It’s grim, but whilst there’s a chance we’ve got to keep fighting and backing the lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that point, Everton were losing and Newcastle were guaranteed top 4. Therefore, the geordies wouldn't care and we'd have the upper hand on Everton. Plus, West Ham would play the kids with they're Europa final coming up. Everton and Liverpool equalising has fvcked us right over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
