Yeah Peej, ****in livid here mate. Can’t believe you’ve ****ed me that hard with your comments on a forum.
Yes it did ... they bought the best players around and bought a title ... so did Chelsea ... big difference being that whilst Abramovic continues to fund, Uncle Jack Walker achieved his dream at Blackburn then got out ... We are nothing like Blackburn ... our owners are in it for the long haul and we did not buy the title by buying the best players on offer ... we built our team and have continued to improve the squad year by year ... That you use them as a comparable shows how little you know or understand ... You'll be dreaming of Arabian nights next
I have a slightly different take tbh. You came up, flirted with relegation in 14/15. Had a season that was beyond belief the following year, with a fairly average but effective side, that got lucky with injuries and you won the title with one of the lowest totals in PL history, as the ‘big guns’ were all in transition periods. Following season reality returned and you were 12th with only 3 points more than you managed in 14/15. Followed by 2x 9th places. Brenda gets you going well early last season and you were right up there, then the wheels fell off before the turn of the year, and you slid backwards. You’ve started this season well again, but in the calendar year table you’re actually 10th. So improving year on year? The actual facts say...no.
Somebody on the radio was quoting the gate for your league game at the Bridge against Coventry the season before Roman came in ... just over 8k!!!!
@Spurlock Write it up bruv, if Carlo wins a pot and beats Liverpool in a game of football before he leaves Tobes gets my username and avi for a season, if he fails to do both I own Tobes avi and username for a season. #stampitupbruv
So finishing 5th wasn't an improvement on finishing 9th? It's not just the league finish it's the football we have played ...admittedly not all the time ... but on our day we are capable of giving anyone a game ... under Brenda we now hold the all time top flight away win margin record ... and we go to places like Citeh and Arsenal and win ... so would you say Everton are evolving or going backwards ... could be argued either way if I applied your kind of logic...
