No flies on you.

Exactly. Some of the more dopey on here genuinely seem to believe in footballing alchemy. Failure is par for the course. Good clubs just fail less frequently.

There's a pretty large swathe of opinion that believes AVB's spurs sides were dour and boring.

Yep. Its not just about the salary. Everton are like Spurs. They are not in the top echelon but they have a better chance of breaking into it than us. Martinez badly managed a decent squad. In the short-term, it's a sideways move and it could easily go wrong, so that should sow some doubt in Koeman's mind and give us a fighting chance of keeping him; but the upside is certainly there. The rest is just denial.

You mean the Bale XI who repeatedly bailed AVB out. They were dour that season.

Because you're a bit odd. There's nothing remotely similar with the skates.

You used to be quite supportive of steve mcclaren too.

Everton are a bigger club and have a higher ceiling than us, especially if you believe reports about the funds being made available to the next manager. We'll be lucky to finish top 6 next season (though it's not impossible), so if there's anytime for Koeman to cash in, it's now. Would Arsenal really want him next season if we finish top 10, however perfectly respectable that might be. Thats not saying there aren't risks with Everton. In the short-term, they arguably have a lower floor than us, so he could easily f**k up given the rebuild that's necessary there. But any manager who is confident in their ability will be thinking about the upside, not obsessing about the downside.

Very doubtful he'd get the Arsenal or Barca job on the basis of his exploits here. The perceived jump is just too big.

Gary Megson is still available.

Van der kraan is known as the dutch neil ashton. Absolute scum pal.

As long as its not that Ginger Nut, moyes.

Half the posters on here have bourboned themselves.

Tenuous.

What are your sources saying strongarm?

Jesus wept.

Yeah exactly. Sadio's massive

Have you actually read the Daily Echo article in question? It's pretty evenhanded article. It seems that the only one sensationalising things is our Davo who's seeing things that just aren't there.

Mason? Have you learned anything from the Forecast deal?

Being argentinian is also a plus.

Gives me a Twister craving too.

From memory, there were claims that VVD's goal (our second) was offside.

Exactly. More chance seeing you near a salad bar.
