Everton Banter

My shortlist

Potter - before people start saying that Brighton aren't much better than Everton position wise we have to remember Potter hasn't had the millions we've wasted over the last 5 years. With very little money he has built a team that is defensively sound and plays good football. He's not expressed much interest in Everton but maybe that's because we always seem to have him in the frame but never the front runner

Kovac/ Galtier Both successful in Europe and I think could do well in the Premiership. Lack of Premiership experience is a gamble

Dyche - like Potter done a good job with no money although struggling this year but still 10 years in the Premiership so knows what it takes. He could keep us up but would he move us forward? Personally I think though he is closest to the Everton ethos - the Fans Club

Rooney - doing a great job at Derby but it would be a big gamble for both us and him at this stage of his career

Martinez - I'm not sure why he is the favorite in the betting. Reasonable first season for us last time but then fell away. Has a great Belgium side on paper now but not won anything. I don't think he is the one to unite the club and its fanbase

Duncan - great player for the club and had a good THREE games as interim manager. Surprisingly I don't feel at 50 years old he has displayed the courage to be manager by his reluctance to leave Everton and prove himself elsewhere.

Next Everton Manager Poll

17 Jan 2022 23:20:35
Well I’ve voted and currently Dunc is winning at 100% with one vote . Come on chaps and chapesses get voting.

What a crackpot board, we are screwed. The people high up making the decisions haven't got a clue. We are such a poorly run club it's ridiculous. Martinez? Really?! Jesus Christ. They don't seem to learn but just get worse. I'm usually a positive poster but there is not even a dim light at the end of this tunnel because we are buried in a ditch with nothing but spades to get us out.

“What a manager” “what a manager” “what a manager”

We know who to thank for Martinez even being mentioned.

But we can’t say his name, rumour has it; every time you say his name, he becomes even more of a “proper Evertonian” and a “true blue”.

Kong, Alcatraz and the likes god help us.

17 Jan 2022 23:25:21
Or even Kone:-)

18 Jan 2022 00:41:19
I now want a movie in which King Kong destroys Alcatraz.

Would Everton appeal to Kovac? A chance to manage in the Prem or is the chalice to poisoned Eds?

{Ed025's Note - hes the best available imo JMW, managed some top teams and head and shoulders above anyone else mentioned mate..

17 Jan 2022 22:08:41
Hes my number one aswell and he's available depending if he's interested.

{Ed025's Note - or if the pot herbs we have at the top are even considering him reg..

17 Jan 2022 22:58:08
Looks the solid pick from all those mentioned. You’d hope he’d be on the list.

17 Jan 2022 19:57:20
What’s this nonsense that I’ve read on the BBC saying we have made contact with Belgium over Martinez? What are they playing at Ed025?

{Ed025's Note - i dont know BR, i just hope they cant get him until after the world cup mate..

17 Jan 2022 21:36:46
I've got a feeling the deals nailed o.

Who in Christ’s name is on our board of directors? I mean who is making these decisions? The board can’t just be Kenwright, Moshiri and one or two others…

This farce has gone on for too long hasn’t it?

17 Jan 2022 18:47:11
I may get called out on this but I personally think Ralph Hassenhüttl wouldn't be a bad shout premiership experience although done nothing magnificent but runs a steady ship.

17 Jan 2022 19:44:50
Too inconsistent for me mate, sometimes Southampton look great others they are awful. Also only 3 9-0 losses in prem history and his names on 2 of them.

17 Jan 2022 19:50:05
Anyone who’s lost 9-0, twice, is a no go.

17 Jan 2022 20:00:14
Oh well we could give him his hat trick - :)

17 Jan 2022 21:22:54
I actually agree with Kev, so what if he lost 9-0 twice, he’s got Saints well organised and playing some good stuff. They’re also 5 points above us and looking very safe. He’s got three season’s worth of premier league experience too.

17 Jan 2022 22:11:23
5 points above us is actually not a very good thing. We have been horrible every game since September. He should have a “good football playing well balanced” squad like that well higher up.

17 Jan 2022 22:13:34
5 points above us.? Aren't we currently on one of the worse runs in about 30 years? Setting a very low bar there mate.

17 Jan 2022 18:41:50
Scathing Daily Mail article. Would you say we are run worse than under Peter Johnson?

17 Jan 2022 18:55:25
Wouldn't read that rag if you paid me. We all know how badly the club has been and is being run. Doesn't take an article in the Daily Fail to tell us.

17 Jan 2022 19:52:11
We do reg. Was just the first of many I read on the same topic.
