Season › 2011-12 › News The worm finally turns... a little Michael Kenrick , 13 January, 33comments | Jump to most recent David Prentice, who has taken great pains in the past to point out how wrong Everton fans have been in criticsing the club, finally writes something that reflects a little of the fear and trepidation he must have been bombarded with from readers of his column in of the Liverpool Echo. Everton can't keep pretending everything's rosy in the garden. Everton have banged their head against the glass ceiling of the top four twice . . and are now looking at the trap door beneath. Maybe it's symbolic that this year is the centenary of the Titanic sinking, because unless Bill Kenwright's 24/7 search finally bears fruit, Everton are heading in the same direction. They have been steaming towards their own iceberg for years. An ageing stadium, an ageing — and as a result increasingly injury prone — squad, a decreasing fan base — with those that remain becoming more and more disenchanted, and an over-reliance on a magnificent manager. I fear for the long term future of Everton Football Club. And I make no apologies for saying that. Quotes or other material sourced from Liverpool Echo Editors' Blog: Iceberg, dead ahead!
