    Good grief they're unhappy!
    I tried to read and catch up but there are too many pages.
    Come on GT, some divine intervention for The Imps in the cup and it will really kick off

    They're also starting to come to the realisation that Richie isn't one.

    Carbon copy of history repeating. The one man Silva show will move onto its next destination shortly. China or Championship.

    WillisWasTheWorst Its making less grammar mistake's thats important

    He thinks too much of himself (reflexive pronoun!) to drop down to the Championship. China is actually not a bad shout, but I suspect he will end up at a mid-table team in another European league.

    Just read that Silva's picked up just 74 points from 63 Premier League matches. That's his career stats. That's averages 44 points per season. It's amazing what good looks and a flashy watch can achieve in football.

    I would genuinely rather watch my team play in League 1 than spend 30 years in limbo, lying to myself and other fans about supporting a massive club.

    For all Puel's faults, got to say he set you up perfectly not to lose yesterday.

    One shot on target in 90 minutes for them is pretty good.

    Yes. I'm not surprised by the rumours of an improved extended contract :)

    Silva's reputation is built on the fact that he was slightly less sh1te than Mike Phelan at Hull. When do we get our nice fat compensation cheque from Everton for headhunting this over-rated pillock?

    Yes, but to be fair, he's only managed clubs which the experts think are nailed-on for relegation.

    Just a little fun knowing how you feel about the guy ! There are no such rumours of course.
    It's always tough when you want to see your manager replaced but at the same time want to see the team win.

    It’s an odd one, feels like a transitional season no matter what happens. I feel slightly less annoyed by him now after a few good wins but he does seem to struggle with keeping any momentum.

    Tbh that seems to be the issue with all the mid table teams. You, Everton, US, West Ham, Wolves etc

    Do you think he gets a £10 every time he flashes it in a photo?
     
  20. Is his forehead getting bigger? It's enormous. His head looks like a sliced loaf.

    Their chairman held some sort of meeting with their fans the other week and more or less publicly cussed the ssslippery ssserpant, saying their league position “is just not good enough”.

    He then gave this ringing endorsement: "We put a big bet on Marco and we stick with him." So, as it stands, it's only the fact that they're not quite ready to admit to themselves that they've bet the farm on a lame donkey, that's stopping them from sacking him.

    What a comical disaster zone that club is. The meeting also addressed the question of the £250 million recently squandered on a collection of assorted faint-hearted shinners, stinkers, jacklegs and no-shows.

    The answer? "Bad luck" apparently. Ah the fickle finger of fate. Fortune's favour. The turn of the card and the fall of the dice. Nobody could predict such terrible luck as to sign a load of fickle mercenaries and a fortune-hunting, unproven, five-minute-wonder of a manager. It could happen to anyone. Well to anyone who was so conceited he didn't appreciate how very little he knew about football and who was surrounded by sycophantic yes men who were too afraid to contradict his silly ideas.

    Now Snakey has been told the money tap has been turned off. You've had it. You've spent it. You told us these were the players you wanted and you got them. No more. Perhaps now Ssilva will do what he did with us. Go into one of his little sulky couldn't-care-less-then moods, where he turns up his coat collar, hunches his shoulders and looks on impassively as the goals fly in past nervous, error-prone, pink-faced Jordan Pickwick and his comedy defensive ruin of an excuse for a defence.

    After the dire plate of dross served up at The Vic today, the Everton result IS a bit of a comfort

    I see Marco's been casually dropping in his lack of January transfer budget into post-match interviews. He's certainly a man with a playbook he sticks to.

    Well Everton will always be Everton no matter who they have as manager or which players they buy.

    Win the odd game going on a decent run but generally like the rest of us outside the top 6 not being that good and very inconsistent.

    To cheer myself I wandered over to the Everton forum.....it's always a good laugh after they lose.

    We get a mention "Watford fans rolling around laughing at us right now"

    They are not only having the usual pop at Silva, but are now moaning over the form of Richarlison. Saying he doesn't look like a £40m player anymore.

    And we tried to warn them.

    They told us we were small time losers and they were one way up. Hahahaha

    After today's result there has been a big move on Silva to be the next manager sacked, with the bookies.

    He's now second favourite behind Claude Puel.

    Seeing Silva’s face on motd has just cheered me up no end . I’m looking forward to booing him in a few weeks time and we must win that match if we do nothing else this season !
