One of my current clients is 55 and doesn’t look 35.

Stunning.

I was amazed when she told me she has 2 kids and their ages. I honestly thought she meant they were her Stepchildren!!

Pics or it didn't happen.
(her, not the kids)




50% !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seen that so many times I read it in his voice and even had the dramatic music in the background :roflmao:
 
They might be a bit old for a high intensity job. I think HR is 77. BMJ about 70.

More likely to be Mason IMO.
There's still at least 20 matches to go though and a good few more (up to ten I think) if we stay in the cups.

In 2021 he was in charge for the last seven games and in 2023 for the last six.

That's a big difference. Can't see Levy risking it TBH. It would have to be an established interim head coach.

Can't be much worse tbh
 
Of course; the common denominator can only be the other guy... That's how these things work, innit.
Yes mate, it's you, I can't be bothered to debate this topic with you anymore.

I know that because it's me that it fed up of it already, and having had similar tedious exchanges with you specifically before, I know from experience that there is no point.

The common denominator is literally you, because it has never happened with any other poster here, on any other topic.

Sat here multiple exchanges deep going back and forth over a throwaway comment about Levy and optics, it struck me that, shit, there's got to be more to life than this.

You broke me, well done.
 
I'm feeling numb about it all.

United and Spam have new managers and Spurs are looking ropier with each shit performance.

Ange can only survive this if he wins the Europa and has an unbeaten last ten league games of the season or similar.

It's looking less and less likely at the moment.

Anything less than two wins against Everton and Leicester and Ange has to be toast.

Lose one of those games and Levy has to hire someone in to avoid relegation.
We won't be relegated.

35 points would have seen us safe any of the last 5 years. To finish with less than that and therefore be in danger we'd need to collect fewer than 10 points from the remaining 17 games.

Even the pitiful 1.14 PPG standard Ange has established would see us with almost double the number required to be safe.

At the present trajectory we'll finish with about 43 points. This is more points than anyone has ever been relegated with. (The Spam were relegated in 02-03 with 42 points, which was the highest ever for a team to go down.)

There's virtually no chance we are going to be relegated as long as the pay keeps going out.
 
Just cause you agree, doesn't mean it's right.
People agree with flat earthers.
People agree with antivaxxers.
People agree with religious cults (all religion)

Doesn't make any of it right.

We would be better without Ange than with. Even if it's Mason. Even if it's Dim Sherwood. Even if we just let Son player-manage the team. Even he might drop himself.
Obviously. It’s called having an opinion.

Cheers for stating the blindingly obvious.
 
I don't particularly want the guy sacked, but it's beginning to feel like the end of Poch's reign. I definitely didn't want him sacked, but in the end there really wassn't any choice. He'd reached the end. He wasn't going to be able to turn it around. I feel like this is very nearly where we're at. Just unable to see that Postecoglou has the ability to turn the current situation around.

Could be the ultimate irony , we spend 2 years saying Everton can’t afford to get relegated with the cost of the new stadium and then …….

Well, just in case you're wrong...

I sadly have to agree, Ange did well to steady a very rocky ship. But we have seen no real improvement. There's been the odd spectacular result amongst several gruesome ones.
To those people who think relegation couldn't happen, until it's mathematically impossible, I'll keep a wary eye on the teams beneath us (getting less every passing week!).

Saying our trajectory is 43 points is based on us having earned the current 24 points on a flat line … but the point is we’ve only earned 9 in the last 10 games.

Form is what counts, and ours is currently diabolical (accepting that it has coincided with a bad run of injuries).

I certainly agree, but even if the form of our last 10 (.9 ppg) holds through the end of the season, that has us finishing with 39 points.

The last time a club was relegated on 39 points was in 2010-11, and the time before that was Spam in 02-03. So yes it's possible to be relegated where we are trending, but this happens once every 10-15 years. We are very likely to be safe with that total.

All that being said, there are numerous years where that point total would land us in 16th or 17th, so we could very well have the ignominy of being in the "not yet safe" conversation up to the final weeks, which is deplorable.

Had a day to stew over last night's result and think back. That was the derby. What were we doing in that first half? What was that Tamworth 90mins about? The Liverpool 6-3 at home? Has he stopped talking about his dad in his motivational speeches and started talking about Basil Fawlty?

Ange, a man I've come to realise is curiously brittle both as a tactician and a man, doesn't have the answers. He looks completely out of his depth at this cut-throat level. We need someone who can clean a high-rise and we've employed a bungalow window cleaner who's swinging around like a wookie on the end of a rope trying to wash the penthouse with his arse.

Ange out.
