They truly are abysmal, if nothing changes I’ll be shocked to see them survive the season and if they do not, I shall rejoice. There was literally nothing positive, not one ray of hope, I could say about their performance today. Seen plenty of seemingly hopeless scenarios with Palace but was never as bad as they look currently. Edited by Nicholas91 (20 Aug 2023 3.45pm) Hear, hear. It's early days of course, but they do look likely candidates for the drop which will please me no end. They've only clung on to the PL by their fingernails for the last couple of years. On
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

Even the battle scarred relegation warrior Sean Dyche looks like he’s going to struggle to save them this season

Let's not get too smug until we've beaten them at least once, shall we?

They are very poor thats for sure . They have a FFP hearing on 25th October so wont be spending any money ,the teams in dissaray and Dyche will lose the will (if he hasnt already) and will churn out defeats until he is sacked . He may even just walk . A points deduction looks inevitable and the relegation that has looked likely in recent seasons will be staring them in the face . I sincerely hope so.

the toffees seem to have spent only a tiny amount on players, this season. Everton signed 5 players in the 'Window', 2 of which are on Loan. Edited by Willo (08 Sep 2023 5.38pm)

I think if they were to get a points deduction, anything more than 3 points, then they go down. Not before time also, so often they have escaped and celebrated on the pitch like they'd won the cup. After Brentford away they have Luton and Bournemouth at home before a tough run of games.

The what looks like a superb new ground at Bramley Moore Dock has run out of money .777 again stepping in with a loan to complete. The investment firm 777 wont have to do anything but collect the interest on the loans . On top of all that financial missmanagment that will see them bouncing along the bottom of the league until they drop and become the new Sunderland they have Dychball to contend with .

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |
