Everton protests are justified but fans cannot ignore brutal relegation reality

Everton’s performance against Manchester United was typical of their season, every so often they’re putting in half-decent displays against top teams but at the end of the day, we’re not winning football games and it’s a results-based business for the players and managers.

We all know that if Frank Lampard had been a manager in the early part of Farhad Moshiri’s ownership then he’d have been long gone. We’re aware that chopping and changing managers is not working and whoever is making decisions at board level, it’s not working. The club is all over the place right now.

Fans are protesting – and I’m fully behind each and every one of them because all they want is what is best for the football club – but what is the solution? We know the issues that the board have created and we know we need communication.
