What Did You Expect?

By Tony   Marsh  ::  14/03/2012   156 Comments (»Last) I am still reeling from last night's shameful, despicable, unacceptable shithouse act of betrayal from our so-called Genius manager, David Moyes.

For years now, going way back to 2005, I have been trying to get through to our supporters with regards to Deadly Dave. My aim being to try and let you know what Moyes is really all about... poor tactics and negative approach being just two of his faults.

Last night's result and performance at Anfield and the "couldn't care less" attitude encapsulated everything I ever said or wrote about the one who runs our club.

Forget the mini revival we have just had because I was never convinced at all. Each of the games we won or drew in the 9 games before last night we could easily have lost ? including the FA Cup games to lower league sides.

We got lucky for a while during the past few months but last night, the real Moyes's Everton emerged and the luck ran out. Getting shafted at Anfield in front of a worldwide audience doesn't seem to bother Moyes one bit. We on the other hand are on the verge of suicide this morning.

Why on earth would any manager with half a brain break up a back four that has had a solid look about it for a while now? Why would any manager buy a striker in the window, watch him get off the mark on his home debut, and then drop him next game? It's fucking lunacy.

When the team sheet was given out last night, I knew right then we would get stuffed. Forget surrendering with a white flag, as doing this means you actually have a plan, ie, a plan to surrender. Walking out unarmed straight into the path of machine-gun fire isn't a plan.

The notion that sticking your arse up in the air to get spanked by Liverpool will somehow help us win the FA Cup tie on Saturday is the most pathetic gormless unrealistic load of shite I have ever come across in my life.

I thought I had seen it all watching Everton over the years. Someone mentioned the Glen Keeley 5-0 Derby loss in the 80s... Well, I was there and it wasn't this bad. That Liverpool side was the best team in Europe at the time and we were in transition. This present shower of shite across the park is the worst in living memory.

I hope to God for the fans' sake that we pull it off at Goodison on Saturday but, after this, I have my doubts. The damage done last night could be the catalyst for an end-of-season collapse. Come to think of it, what would be the point of going to Wembley to face Spurs, Liverpool or Chelsea? We all know what Moyes will do if we get there, don't we?

The one time during Moyes's reign were I was actually considering getting behind him and trying to be a bit more understanding and this happens and makes me come to my senses.

Moyes is a fraud ? always has been; always will be. The fool who employs him makes me sick to my stomach. I am not the only one who thinks like this and when the likes of David Booth turns against Deadly Dave, you know there are problems. As for the recent Ben Jones article "To All Moyes Critics" ? what do you think now, mate? Made us all look silly, hasn't he?

Saturday's tie v Sunderland has now become the biggest pressure game in Moyes's time at Everton and he has brought it all on himself. Instead of us going out and brushing the Mackems aside the players have been put under an enormous strain to win.

If we lose, surley there will be riots in the streets and Kenwright will sack Darling Dave... Hmm... don't think so some how!
