It’s also beautifully, gloriously Everton to persist with a manager everyone can see isn’t good enough, only to sack him right at the end of the window, when there is no time to get them any of the players they’ll need for the scrap ahead.

Do you remember the Mel Brooks film, “The Producers”, whereby they come up with a scam to defraud theatre investors by producing a dreadful musical that closes on the first night?
Do you think that’s what the Everton board are doing?
Maybe.
At least the songs in that film were more tasteful than the Everton chants

I have no idea how Mel Brooks got away with that in 1967.
I wonder if they could do a off-Broadway musical based on Everton: “Fucking Boooo! (The Musical)”

Is he their new manager?
Tactician Trainer :0)
Time to bring Big Dunc in.
These need to be viewed skeptically, but how can a club think a back up to Bielsa is Sam? I am not talking about levels, but about philosphy and attitudes to football.

Generally yes, but lots of clubs go down by just following the conventional wisdom. Everton is toxic. Their football is awful and the fans just hate everything about what is happening and many feel that as much as their shitness is holding them back. None of the familiar list of pragmatic managers will change anything about that. Someone who plays a brand of football who at least gives something for the fans to watch might. It might backfire spectacularly, especially give the late stage of the season and the difficulty of implementing a new approach to games with this little time to work on it, but it’s an idea that shouldnt be dismissed entirely given Everton’s specific situation.

Did it not occur to the Everton board that it might be sensible to have a new manager lined up before sacking the old one just before transfer deadline day?
Or is this simply an admission that Everton of unmanageable?

Basically they had no idea expected to attract several names talked to about 15 and these are the only two that haven’t said no straight away.
