The last few weeks have done my head in, as once again the doom mongers are out in force. At Everton we have to have the most critical fans in the whole of the country, are they ever happy.
We live in a football world were money counts, we have none admittedly, but in Moyes we trust. We lie four points behind Liverpool, nine points behind Spurs, and twelve behind City who currently are clinging onto a Champions League place.
My point is that these three clubs collectively must have spent in excess of £250m between them in the last twelve months. Where has it got them, in tons of debt and the highest placed club of those three Man City are only three to four wins better than us. If you count our draws this season we could easily be up there with them, if not surpassing them.
Our problem over the last few seasons has been poor start to our campaigns. We all knew this season that we were missing a fit quality front man; Moyesy admitted as much the other week. If we sort that one out in the summer, I can see the Blues once again pushing on next season to seriously challenge for a top four slot.
No doubt we will lose the odd 'star' in the summer, we always seem to. We have a Manager though who keeps pulling new players out of the magician's hat, and he will no doubt do it again.
The Blues are on an upward curve, and come next season a few lessons from the past few seasons must be learnt. For the doubters out there, things are not as bad as what has been painted of late, so get behind the team and stop whining.
In Moyes we trust
