Rinse and Repeat
If, like me, you were at Goodison for the final home game of the 2017-18 season, you will recall that neither the football nor the atmosphere was very pretty on that occasion. The visitors that day were a Southampton side fighting for their top-flight lives, and they looked to be heading home with all three points until Tom Davies punctured those ambitions with what was virtually the last kick of the ball.
Davies’s equaliser caused rapturous scenes among the Goodison faithful, but the celebratory mood promptly evaporated as many in the crowd turned, not for the first time, on Everton manager, Sam Allardyce. Allardyce’s singular brand of anti-football had won few friends among Evertonians, although he had at least fulfilled his remit in steering us away from the wrong end of the table and into a fairly respectable 8th place.
