After Santini and Ramos I also really struggle to believe that Levy/Lewis would risk anyone without proven Premiership calibre. I'd put AVB in that bracket along with Deschamps, Klopp, Blanc etc

Santini and Ramos were very different as they had no experience of the premiership at all and also both didn't really speak English.

Blanc and AVB both have experience either through playing or managing and both speak near perfect English. Also, unlike Ramos, neither rely on a director of football which is important.

Proven premiership calibre is not easy to find...and if that's what we wanted would we have got rid of our most successful premiership manager of all time?

We're going to have to take a degree of risk with this appointment. It just needs to be calculated.

JJ if u are watching- are we likely to have someone in place by preseason training? Or at least before the USA tour??? Plus- how long would we wait for the right guy I mean a few weeks be ok but I think we need an appointment at latest by 1st August so new guy has 2 weeks b4 kickoff

OPEN QUESTION TO ALL THE ITKS NOT JUST JJ

Think it's safe to say a new manager will be in by pre season..if not we can kiss goodbye to achieving ANYTHING in the coming season.

I have ITK as well! Was having an orgy last nite in my bedroom with Pep, Mourinho and a few prostitutes, and they told me that by tommorow lunch we will anounce both of them as a two man team, to manage spurs! Just passing on in good faith bla bla bla...

Apparently Mourinho will be in charge of the defence, and pep the attacking play
Never mind pep & Jose tell us more about these prossies

Sorry, no. Finding it and collating it would take too much time. I've already had to make cuts. My Tuesday and Thursday morning wanks have been cancelled until further notice and i've also had to lose my Wednesday and Saturday evening python choking sessions. And on top of all that i've lost my hand held vadge.
Yeah that's cool, I can do the search thing on my laptop

Just to say I think I speak for most when I say we all appreciate all the time and effort all you mods especially you put into this thread to make sure we get our little soap opera thru the windows.

Of course we'll have someone by then. I have no doubt about that.

But playing devils advocate here, if Blanc is our number one choice and they make it through to the final, it doesn't leave us room to manoeuvre to get everything signed, sealed and delivered in time for pre-season.

I strongly believe he is our first choice replacement for Harry with AVB waiting firmly in the wings - after that, who knows!

I'd like to think/hope do too! I imagine the real itk guys would know if levy had set a deadline to get someone in by and u would imagine they would happily confirm this to us??? What's the point in being itk and declaring yourself to us as such otherwise??

If Blanc is the target we'll have spoken to him already I'm sure.

The Moyes "interview" on MOTD at half time appeared rather impromptu (Lineker sounded quite awkward asking the questions), Moyes played the whole thing exceptionally well and I would imagine he is certainly on our list and he knows it.

The fact the interview/questioning appeared impromptu kind made the way Moyes dealt with it and came accorss rather impressive, managed to be very positive about Everton yet open to Tottenham at the same time without pissing anyone off!

Very focused and exceptionally determined chap.


Didn't think he was good enough at first but after much thought and considering how he organises his team and makes them solid and difficult to beat with the players and small squad at EFC he should be our top first choice target. 10 years PL experience and chance to move to a club with better players, a new training ground, a new stadium on the way and some money would be too good a chance for him to pass by.
How much of a change would it make to have a manager who keeps his mouth shut and knows how to conduct himself in a civilised manner when talking in a interview or to the press.

Deschamps too remember, even if it was just a single season!

Who: Berba1981
When: 16th June
Where: SC

The job is his if he wants it ! In fact I am sat in my front room with him now !! Like I said earlier he is not sure that the club is in the best place at the mo !!! Not meaning they are a better club just all the hassle that goes with it !! He would be our best bet !!
COYS X

What's this all about then?
Berba1981 is David Moyes' wife?



I've got to say, I don't get the "the clubs not in the best place" comment, if true?

We all know what position Everton are in, while we've just equaled our best ever prem finish (however disappointing that may have been), we're about to open a grainy facility that will be as good as anywhere in Europe, we're financially sound with a superb stadium on the way?

The only thing is we haven't got a manager, which would be his job...

But to be honest I don't want Moyse and am dubious that the club are even interested?!
