Gutted for Fat Sam

Well, I quoted the post, but didn't have the opportunity to log-in and tell the delusional troglodyte that Mancini has just been appointed Italy's manager

Are you a member? Do you linger among them posting freely?

No, I haven't registered. That would be a bit weird. Although there does appear to be a sprinkling of opposition fans on there, bit like they have on Redcafe

One of them is taking shite for having the temerity to suggest that West Ham are a similar sized club to Everton. LOL.

Apparently its not even close.

 

[gkmacca]

Also.... Mancini? Isn't he shite enough to go there

Isn't he set for the Italy job?

 

[manwithnoname]

Isn't he set for the Italy job?

Yeah, "set" as in "already appointed".

But that shouldn't stop him being on a list of possible Everton managerial appointments, especially if the likes of Conte, Simeone and Allegri are also on it.

What's Joe Royle up to these days?

He actually left around Xmas, he was doing some role in youth development or something.

 

[doctor_mac]

That was before he was aware of Everton's interest. The Italian FA will surely understand that it would be wrong to stand in the way of a job with that level of prestige?

What's Joe Royle up to these days?

About twelve pints a night and fourteen bags of pork scratchings.

Some of the pics used in the report are brilliant.

Allardyce said: “I'm shocked, disappointed and disgusted that the football club didn't have the decency to tell me, my Director of Football and my staff about the changes.
“They must have been in the pipeline for a considerable time but no-one thought to tell me and my staff. I'm pretty disgusted.
“I came into the football club with the team struggling and we have finished 8th in the table. I'm more than happy with what myself, my staff and the players have achieved from when I came in.”

Joe Royle went to my school (Quarry Bank).

As a footballer he was considered to be OK.

“I came into the football club with the team struggling and we have finished 8th in the table".

He certainly knows how to spin things. They were actually 13th when he came in, but that doesn't fit with his standard 'Allardyce performs miracles' storyline.

I fucking love seeing Sam and Moyes sacked but they probably bank about 5m each the fuckers.
So i reckon they are the big winners here.

Moyes has banked fuck all, his contract expired.

The Bisto King has trousered about £6m, although I'm not sure if that's inclusive of all the contractual bonuses for staying up and the additional payments depending on how high up the league he got them. Either way, he's fucking laughing.

Id take a lot less to not win things and then not manage Everton

Good luck Sammy lad when you try to resume that 'LFC legends' evening you had booked before you signed up with Sam.

He still can book one like you and me if interested?

Allardyce is another manager who somehow retains a reputation that contrasts with the reality. Even some of his critics are happy to admit he 'sorts out the defence,' and 'keeps it tight'. The reality is he's the manager in the Premier League whose teams have suffered the most 4-0 or more defeats. And under him I think Everton conceded only one goal fewer than they scored. The reality is he's not even that good defensively, and he's crap in terms of attacking. And he does this while suggesting that he's too good for the clubs he manages. He must depress fans more than any other manager.

Hmmm might that stat be misleading because

a. He's managed mostly mid to low table tables
b. He's managed more games than any other lower team manager

He's a good manager results wise which in football is the main thing for a lot of chairmen

They were on the slide, were 5 pts above relegation and everyone was saying they looked like they were gonna struggle

They finished 8th 16 pts ahead of 18th.

He isn't spinning shit. He did a great job. He just plays horrible football.

Who cares? He won two European cups with us and a host of titles.

Owen played for Utd ffs.

Sammy Lee is a club legend and a stint at Everton doesn't change that.

I agree. Sammy is a popular South Liverpool lad and my bro @Vlads Quiff often sees him drinking in the Storrsdale.

Any sensible person will put earning a living for himself and his family above football club loyalties. He hasn't actually done anything shameful.

 

[Fabio]

He helped make Everton shit

He should be getting lauded

"Great" is stretching it, but you're right to a degree. He did what he was brought in to do, but he didn't really do much more than stop the rot against the lesser teams, that's where their points increase came from. The league below about 6th place is terrible though, there's barely much difference in actual quality, it's pretty much down to how organised you are.

 

[Hansern]

Sammy Lee deserves some credit for the way he "reacted" to Virgils match winning goal at Anfield.
It was an Oscar worthy performance.

Based on how they are going it was a very good job.

If he was there all season they'd have finished top 6.

He plays Shite football but he's certainly far from the picture being painted of him.

 

[jan]

He's good with cones too

Exactly this. It's like reading a 10 year olds thread talking about him burning his bridges ffs.

Three replies when you said you wouldn't reply. Great job.
