At Moyes’ last Goodison game as Everton manager, West Ham fans sang ‘Where’s your Moyesy gone?’ Everton fans responded ‘You’ve got Sam Allardyce’.

Everton have been terrible for years now, and relegation wouldn’t be an unfair appraisal of where they are. But they’ve been absolutely robbed by referees this season, and wouldn’t be in the bottom three without that.

Actually quite flabbergasted by this. The Premier League CEO calling any of its 20 clubs "small" would be bafflingly terrible judgement let alone ones who've won as many league titles as Everton and as many European Cups as Forest. Just appalling leadership on such a key issue.

They interviewed Seamus Coleman after donating to injured Liverpool fan Sean Cox, deemed his answers to be - I presume - too boring, and made up something about Everton fans. That's so disrespectful to everyone involved.

Completely disrespectful to Everton and Dyche to make up a lie to justify not applying the rules fairly. Keep this sort of thing in mind when they talk about respect for referees. It's a two-way street.
Dyche also says he asked about the Onana shirt pull and was told they decided both players were pulling each other’s shirts

With Gerard Deulofeu only returning to action on October 18, the day after the Merseyside derby, having been injured in February, Artur is once again unwittingly calling for a seven-month ban for Virgil Van Dijk.
I said it before and I'll say it again. Those who concede deliberate, career-threatening fouls like that should be banned for as long as the injured players are out.

Like Niasse re: diving, it's standard for Everton to face the most severe interpretation of the rules while their opponents are regularly let off.

The club has been mismanaged for years, the squad is weak, fans were never going to be on side... but it's important not to understate quite how shit a manager Benitez was at Everton.
