Spawny, shite, pointless unflushable bastards. The bottom 3 are fucking useless. They'll probably only need to win one more game or just grind out a couple of boring draws to stay up.

 

Same again next season when two of the promoted teams are too shit to stay in the league and one established teams in the PL decides to have a meltdown and go shit for a season. 

 

The thing is, if Forest get points deducted then Luton will stay up and will be hanging round next season. 

 

Everton think the league is corrupt but the Blues must have made a deal with the devil because by all rights they should have been relegated at some point.

They have to be right in the mix next season.

 

The dross being flushed this season, seemingly better sides coming up - and the shite will be having a firesale in the summer of the couple of half decent players they have.

 

I really think next year could be the one - they've been circling the bowl for a while - next season their luck runs out.

[TheHowieLama]

The real corruption is the league keeping them up.

So much class and dignity

I didn't realise they were against dyche! 

 

The best thing that has happened to them this season was the 10 point deduction.

Seriously what the fuck is going on. They haven't won a game since 2002.

 

 

They're one point ahead of Forest, four ahead of Luton, having played a game more than each of them. And they have to play them both.

I wondered when it would start.

 

What the deluded pricks don't get is thst he is spot on for them - he is good at making shite teams reasonably well organised and tricky to play against - ok they won't score many, but they won't let in loads too and they'll carry a threat from set pieces and eek out enough points to stay out of bother.

 

Probably keep them just above the drop zone for a few years.

 

That is about as much as they can hope for realistically - but they are not realistic because of their laughable delusion - so they'll houmd him out and demand someone who will return them to their 'rightful position' - and of course when thst does not happen and results are even worse they'll demand change again.

 

It is why they have gone through about 7 or 8 managers in the time Klopp has been at Liverpool.

With luck Brighton will feel charitable to Forest tomorrow like they have Everton the past few seasons.

They're absolutely as good as they can be with the shite they have playing for them. If they could get DCL back to the player he was before the injuries, they'd be comfortably staying up. They had 23 shots on goal today. 22 last week, shite v Brighton before that and 19 the week before when they played palace. They're making chances. 

 

As you say they're pretty well organised. They have a low block, but they do counter ok. Now part of the reason they're struggling is this Beto bum, and if dyche bought him, that's on him. But I don't know if Everton managers have much to do with the players they sign anyway. But I don't see how them hiring a different manager will improve their chances are staying up. 

 

It's fucking great though, because the last thing they need now is it going back to the toxic anti-exerton atmosphere they've had on and off for years.

Luton game in hand is midweek vs Bournemouth

 

Sad thing is forest look terrible at the moment and will also likely get a points deduction so that might save the cheating bastards

It doesn't look like hiring Nuno has much improved their chances of staying up. But they have some decent players in those front 4 positions. If they can start scoring more goals, I reckon they'll be ok even with a 6 pointer. 

 

But 1st things 1st, let's hope Luton can get 3 points this week.

If they would have got a deduction the last 2 seasons,they would have been gone

If they are safe going into last few games it will be toxic - ironically enough, the silly gets are more unhappy with safety achieved relatively comfortably than achieving it right near death as they don't get to have their big "look at us" (but actually really really small time) survival day....Where they parade dogs down the street and invade the pitch at end

 

They can cope with that, but they can't accept what they really are and that is deeply mediocre and going absolutely nowhere.

Yeah, they deffo don't see who they are. But they're in denial about more than just the team on the pitch. They think they're ripe for a state to buy them, despite they've had years to when they weren't fucked, so why would they now. They think the stadium is the answer to all their financial woes, even though it is maybe the biggest millstone around their neck (and if second only to the fucked up ownership situation). They think they're a big team, despite the fact that day has sailed. They think they have more fans in the city, despite the blindingly obvious how red the city is. They think we worry about them, while we sit and laugh at them and if our heads were to fall off, it would be with laughter. They think there's a national agenda against them, not realising nobody even thinks about them, outside of us laughing at them. 

 

Despite all this though, they're fucking great entertainment.

Is right.

 

As for the delusion about the new ground they just don't realise it won't move the needle anywhere near as much as they go on about how it will.

 

Our matchday revenue as reported in our recent accounts has fallen by £7 million for 22/23 as we didn't play as many games as we did the season before, revenue was still £80 million though.

 

There is no way on earth they will get anywhere near that sort of figure of course, they're never getting £5k per corporate seat as we can manage, no European games, no runs deep into cups and they will not be selling out the sewage farm 30 plus times a season....be lucky to be over 20.

We have a bigger stadium, our tickets are more expensive, and every game is sold out....and still "only" making 80m matchday revenue in a season like 22/23 which whilst realtively poor for us in terms of how well we did on the pitch was still miles ahead of anything they could hope for.

Everton can probably offer a modest corporate package, but they can't hike regular tickets by much really, and after the novelty has worn off they'll likely only sell out the really big games. If they're playing a Fulham or a Brentford, they'll probably be well short/offering kids for a quid on radio city....

 

They are in masses of debt and even if they manage to shift some of that with new ownership and by some miracle they manage to consolidate their debts into something manageable, they'll be paying it off for a very, very long time. Whatever the stadium ups revenue by will barely if at all cover those payments IMO.

"What would Everton do?"

 

Whatever it is, do the fucking opposite.

[Trumo]

All those awestruck cruise ship passengers will demand to come ashore for stadium tours and raid the Everton club shop, boosting the club's coffers and paying off the stadium debt in about 6 weeks.

Yeah, exactly. With regard hospitality tickets. A couple of my blue mates have said they're pushing these junior hosp season tickets. Opens 3 hours before KO, 1 hour after, free booze on the concourse and a street food meal. I think about the same as we're doing in the road end, which I think we sell at 350-450 per game (heard that word of mouth, so not certain). They want £3k per season for that. My mates were actually thinking about getting one till they started thinking of the 12.30 Saturday, the 2pm Sundays etc, where you just won't get time to even take advantage, as at our age, who the fuck wants to go the match at 9.30 on a Saturday and start boozing when you're playing crystal palace or something? But they reckon they have mostly already sold this out - 5k of them. Dunno how it can be true, it's surely just a register of interest. What maniac would give those fuckers £3k when they might be bust in a month's time? 

 

My mates still think a regular ST is going to cost the £1k. This from a set of fans where 50 year olds have been going as junior bloos since 1984.

Their delusion knows no bounds.

 

I'll give it 2 years tops before they are going mad about how club has forgotten its roots and is fleecing people, treating them like tourists etc....The irony is they'll be right but nobody will feel sorry for them as they have literally asked for it. Their club have got to extract more money from them and there won't be hordes of tourists and day trippers to get it from - it will come from your average billy bitter from walton/wavertree etc..your aforementioned junior bloos since 1984...

You're forgetting the millions of tourists who'll be hopping off the cruise liners desperate to pay £500 quid for some free chang beer and a chance to watch Everton play the north end of Preston.

There's a debate to be had about if they go bust and some decide to start supporting the reds. Will they be rehabilitated like the Nazis who found their way into the west german army? Or hunted down and eliminated?
