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.

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

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 .

(hope thats cheered you up Nicholas )

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?

I sincerely hope so.

Fair point, we gave them one of their best results last season, as we tend to do over the years when a team desperately needs a result

They beat us 3-0 at Goodison and I believe they never won a single game after that until Dyche was appointed some 10 games later.

0-1 down to the team with one point from five games at the bottom of the football league. Goal miles offside too. Delicious.

2-1 up now.
Don’t you just hate it when prem league sides come from behind to win cup matches. LOL

the toffees seem to have spent only a tiny amount on players, this season.

Lets all open the Champagne when they finally break their relegation duck.

Everton signed 5 players in the 'Window', 2 of which are on Loan.
They paid transfer fees for 2 players, a total which could reach around £40 Mill.They did however sell Iwobi for a free which could each £22 Mill and the sales of Gray and Cannon totalled around £15 Mill.

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.

Didn't they also sell that striker that was on loan at Sunderland last season to Coventry for £9m?

After Brentford away they have Luton and Bournemouth at home before a tough run of games.
Anything less than six points in those two and they're bang in trouble.

From what I hear they are buying on the never never and selling cash up front .
They have just taken a high interest loan from probable new buyers 777 reported to be 'tens of millions' for day to day running costs

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 .

How does that work, Willo? A 'free' that could reach £22 million seems odd.

He's also made reference to Jim Cannon and Andy Gray there, apparently confusing Everton with 80's Palace YT, so I wouldn't grill him too harshly there may be something else at play.
