    So you fully expected Utd to get relegated to lowly division 2 in the August 73.

    Did you have a few bob on it?

    A moot point now, but I thought it was much too soon to start talking about relegation for Everton at that stage and said so at the time.

    What are you paying Walsh for if they are Koeman's signings?

    Well I was talking the last few years but if you want to go to history, I never thought we were too good to go down and when it happened I was not shocked.
    Any team can go down if the performance isn't right <ok>

    Agreed. Sacking Koeman showed desperation not foresight or good management.

    I've never seen a good side go down.

    give us an example.

    Everton lacked a striker but i cant think of anyone with ahem a world class striker like Rooney going down.

    Pullis and Bruce showing how exciting their managerial careers are with this dull 0-0 in play offs.

    Neither team had a decent shot on target. Just one long ball after after from both teams to a forward that can’t win the ball

    Wow, keeper makes a save outside area with his hands... mike dean gives free kick but only books him.

    Surely its a straight forward red

    They obviously weren't, they went down. That is the point though, no teams are too good to go down regardless of the players.

    recognising names doesn't mean a good team.

    As i recall there was massive in fighting.

    you are right though they should not have gone down but they did cos they were twats.
