ToonArmy1892 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) Yes but none of that really matters if the fans hate you. He called them a small club, it just wouldn't work. Edited June 8, 2021 by ToonArmy1892 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toon25 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Everton fans strike me as being similar to West Ham. They'll be looking down their noses at Rafa and wanting someone 'progressive' that plays 'the Everton way'. Their best bet would have been to go for Nuno.

nbthree3 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Howe's a non-starter for Everton fans, arguably Nuno too but he's favourite for Palace. Appoint those 2 and they're accepting to be mediocre, supposedly. I get the impression they hate Rafa too even if he's happy to speak to them but he's that low on the list they won't try unless they Bruce it and like 10 turn them down! Fonseca and Potter I think they like going off the Twitter hashtag Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 But but but football insider said... It was an exclusive... Rafa's critics always tried ramming it down our throats he was in it for the money and would take the Everton job in a shot. God I hope he doesn't take it just so Keys and the other knobheads aren't gloating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he's very much Liverpool but I think he garners so much respect, I think the majority would see past that. Especially, if they see their club and team developing. There'll always be a percentage will be blind, just because of the Liverpool connection. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keggy_Keagal Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 The rivalry between Liverpool and Everton is as strong as it ever was even with Everton's lack of recent success . I'd also say the derby has changed somewhat. At one stage it was "the friendly derby" with supporters of both clubs often stood side on the terraces. It's certainly got more bitter. There's more venom and some fans of both clubs actively dread it. My stepfather is a blue season ticket holder and in normal times he swerves that game or even going to the pubs when it's on. Too many young gobshites who go absolutely tonto. As for Rafa I can't envision him going there. He's a very savvy bloke, who's very aware of how he's perceived and there's too much risk of his standing with Liverpool supporters being tarnished.
