Agreed, there has to be SOME reason that they always seem to start so slowly/poorly? I'm sure Neil will have more of an insight as I can't admit to religiously following Evertons pre-season. As for Redknapp I hope he ends up in some fucking backwater shithole, earning millions no doubt but the less we have to put up with that sagging face the better.
it must be the pre season, what else could it be to start like a relegation side then gets a siege mentality going in the middle of the season massive run to the end
