I'm not telling myself anything, it's merely a fact. A fact that you will obviously find difficult to digest, just like Steve.
Facts are that even when we've gone through our most difficult time as a club since before Shankly arrived EFC weren't good enough to take full advantage, we had more success last season than the blues have had for a decade. Finishing higher than us last season put an extra few bob into Kenright's bank account but it won Everton nothing and never got you into Europe.
You're on the downslope & it hurts mate, I know, let it all out. Houllier was sacked as 4th wasn't good enough, fast forward 8 years & now 4th is a distant dream. That's the reality pet.
Now you're getting it, we've sacked managers that have won more than Everton have in their recent history.
1 mickey mouse in 6 years mate, like I said...........downslope. Rodgers has already talked your ambition down this season, before a ball was kicked. Not being funny, but by your standards (& I'm not taking the piss now) that must take a bit of swallowing?
Mickey Mouse cup? You would love to win it and you know it. Why set the bar at 6 years?, lets say since Everton's last trophy win and give us the trophy count?
Did I say I wouldn't love us to win it? It'd still be the mickey mouse though, you know, the one that the big clubs field their stiffs in. We haven't won a pot for 17 years, I was refering to your slide from the games top table, not ours.
It was just yet a coincidence, when Chelsea get 2 of their own, THEN they get 2 sent off, all was good when they were losing 2 0. , pure conspiracy though, it happens every game where they need it almost, stupid conspiracy, Moyes called Riley a manc supporter, conspiracy, gills appointment.. conspiracy.. China PL 3bn deal.. conspiracy. It's like watching a forest fire at night, a manc will tell you the heat smell smoke and orange glow doesn't prove there is a fire, its a conspiracy If its in a bottle and its white. It's Milk.
Minor blip in 1998 but Moyes kicked that little f'ker to the curb despite not joining the club for another four years
