Potentially we are a much bigger Club than Everton - we have one thing in common both clubs have a fickle fan base. We really should be punching at a much higher rate given the fact that we are the biggest team in the 2nd biggest British City. I have always likened Everton to the unwashed, you don't seem to find a lot of youngsters supporting either team, both live in the shadow of their more successful neighbour, both teams play in a dump, although Goodison was once a better than average stadium.True both clubs have financial constraints just that Everton manage theirs a hell of a lot better. Just wait till the likes of Coleman, Stones, Lukaku have their heads turned, it will be like a swimmer struggling to turn in deep water.We are in proper trouble no doubt, but it is a unique issue postmarked to B6 - don't really go alone with comparisons to other clubs.As for other managers Garde would not have been my first choice neither was Sherwood but that's the hand we have been dealt lets just get on with it. We could have Bertie Mee, Bill Shankly, Busby Mercer when he was successful we would struggle with nil investment.
Out of interest, what is the second most played top flight fixture? Is there a possibility us v everton will be overtaken in the next year or so if the unthinkable happens?
Really can't see us beating Watford, that's how low expectations are now. A complete disaster under Mr Lerner. I can Villa doing a Wolves and dropping straight through to League one. Club is bereft of any heart or passion.
