You're right Grey
my view is that Sam would be getting a lot more credit if he was still in charge,
is speculative. It's also opinion and perspective, two key ingredients of a discussion forum.
Mooj, on a discussion forum there will be a 'them and us' divide on all topics. I know full well that I agree with you all on some topics and disagree on others. I can come close to hating a user for their views and then on another topic they will say something that resonates with me and I couldn't agree more. This is all fundamental to a discussion. For the record, I agree with Luke's speculative statement, I think Sam would have got more credit, it's an opinion and it should matter.
My aggressively suppress comment was probably not fair though, I apologise for that. However, I probably could argue that this has happened on other threads, not necessarily by you. I went to find proof of an example of someone, not you, posting aggressively around this topic and that post has been altered. So I will assume that was addressed offline. I'm not going to continue looking for proof as I frankly don't have time to scour the boards so I will apologise for that one and move on.

But let's be honest the negative Bilic comments were so few and far between, in comparison to the unnamed one, where it was continuous for four years.
Anyway I'm just happy it worked out and I'll carry on backing every manager that comes to us, until they give me a solid reason not to.
;ok
Anyway...
Eski said recently could we finish top four. I said no, but aim for fifth.
But...
When you look at our next group of games until March:
Newcastle (a)
City (h)
Villa (h)
Saints (a)
Norwich (a)
Sunderland (h)
;hmm
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
I'd like Malmo and Dortmund.
Nobody in this league wants win it, it would seem
I know that is a commonplace saying this season, but for me it is the opposite:
no one is prepared to roll over and have their tummies tickled like they used to.
I think no one team can get away, because they would have to play at an almost impossibly high level to do so,given the more even nature of the teams in the PL this season.
In the season where Stoke have Shaqiri, Palace have Cabaye, Bournemouth have Iturbe, Leicester have Mahrez, Everton have Lukaku etc...the league is so much more competitive.
And we have some bloke called Payet.
I've literally just been on the #belikebill page on fb
;carew
Bryan says Bilic won him over ;bowdown
;whistle
SB [a defender who played for his country] talking to you about areas of your defending which are good and those which can be improved on or RM [have you seen Everton defend this season?].

He really doesn't though, does he. Doesn't even reference the owners. I hate this kind of 'journalism'.
