Proud Unsworth looking to end season on a high

Anyway. Looking forward to seeing what team gets picked.

As has been mentioned pure..class.

I was genuinely expecting something more along the lines..

Interviewer: "David, in charge of the first team for the final game, what are your feelings?"

Unsworth: (looks confused) "How d' yer mean 'feelings' like?"

Interviewer: "Well what are your thoughts?'

Unsworth: (shrugs) "Just...y' know..haven't really got none like"

Interviewer: "It must be a huge honour"

Unsworth: (takes chewy out, sticks it on the end of the mike, lights a Benson) "If you like..not really arsed t' be 'onest"

Interviewer: "But obviously mixed emotions regarding Roberto Martinez"

Unsworth: "Not really"

Interviewer: "Is that something you'd like to expand on?"

Unsworth: "Well he was shite wasn't he, a fuckin' nob-head"

Interviewer: "Will it be a thrill to have Joe Ro..."

Unsworth: (shouts to someone at back of room) "Hey, do we get any tea and fuckin' biscuits!?"

(tut, the modern world - where as long as you don't drop your kecks, pull your arse-cheeks apart and shout 'Ithangyew!', you qualify as having 'class')

To those saying Martinez "got" Everton. Unsy is one of us.

I'm convinced him and Joe will put some pride back for the last game. He has started already

I'd happily give Big Joe a shot for a year and wait for the right man than put another joker in charge!

Big Joe the last man to win us a trophy say no more!

If Unsy, Royle or Ferguson are not up to the challenge then do me a favour and do one.

I'm sick of being mediocre in this City and mid table bollocks is not acceptable or good enough; remind me again what it stands for - NSNO????

It has to be (forgive me for saying it) an incredible moment for Joe Royle. To be back in a management capacity with Everton again, but also to see two of his "kids" in Ferguson and Unsworth taking the reins of the family business. I'm actually kind of sad that this is only going to be for one match. It would have been very interesting to see what this team could have done over the course of a month with Royle and Unsy at the helm. It could have been better, or it could have been worse, but I do believe the team would have put up more of a fight.

Nothing changes as Kenwright takes Bobby's advice on who is best to hold the fort. Wouldn't be surprised if he didn't ask him to provide a shortlist of likely successors. And the valedictory announcement sounded more like a reason to appoint than a reason to sack.

The sacking was the easy bit. Expect to be disappointed by the appointment !

Get fucking rid of the whole mid table mentality from top to bottom. I'm bored to death with it.

This club needs to start to deliver the goods under this new regime.

Martinez has infected our club; I just hope the new Manager has a good clearout.

Hopefully the fat clown will be enjoying his new found millions on some Cypriot beach by the start of the new season. You never know Phil, you could be neighbours soon.

Also time to say our goodbyes to some good servants and enjoy the speculation in what is a huge summer for whomever our new Manager is as there's a rather large rebuild/reshape of our first team squad required.

Just passion, effort and three points on Sunday please, David.

Mediocrity may indeed have permeated the club during BK's tenure, but maybe, just maybe, the enlisting of Farhad Moshri could be the catalyst for seismic change for Everton's fortunes.

If that proves the case, a review of BK's parting legacy to Everton may be, just may be, in order.

Honest, straight forward and genuine with no bullshit.

Lets hope the players are equally honest on Sunday and give the fans an occasion.

Likewise I hope the fans turn it into a carnival atmosphere to show how pleased we are at the change in manage.

It has been a very disappointing couple of seasons but we are about to begin a new journey - let the team know how Goodison can sound.

However I think the Prem has moved on a bit now and foreign coaches seem much better tactically prepared.

If we have a surge in performance Sunday it could push the Unsy band wagon forward a bit.

Fair play Rhino. Future manager in the making but probably needs to leave to cut his teeth properly, unless things change drastically at the club. Which they may. Here's hoping

Then Bellow fight next Sunday, happy days are here again

I was waiting for him to say, we have scrapped the 4-2-3-1 formation even if it means starting with only 10 players! Also I wanted a statement that he will substitute anyone who passes the ball back to the keeper from more than 12 yards away or who tries to take a penalty kick away from Baines.

Feels good to finally be able to come in off the ledge. I am worried though that the rumor of a sporting director model being considered means Roberto could be submitting his resume. The interview would include RM claiming that in the position he would make sure the manager had adequate funding and support from management to create a phenomenal team.

On second thought, maybe I will stay out on the ledge until things get sorted properly. It is almost summer after all and the weather is tolerable up here.

He's being 'polite'. Chances are that is not his view, just didn't want to rock the boat a few days after.

I thought he did well. Manager's job? No chance. Love that Joe is back.

The disappointment was he could not deliver the success we wanted, but he reminded us that the sky was the limit for our club....

I think we may get Mourinho.

Kenwright had years of promising us he was looking for investment but said he just could not get it. At this time, plenty of clubs in the lower divisions (Blackburn, Reading etc) seemed to be able to find investors.

Kenwright had no intention of sharing the limelight with anyone else. We have as a consequence of this stood still for years and years and years. He has only acted now because of ill health.

Let's get him out now... then watch us move forward at last.

And, yes he was the best penalty taker we've had.

Presuming Baines is back on penalty duty!!!

I have no criticism of Unsworth, only of those who think his completely normal, unremarkable response was 'class.'

If I say 'good morning' to the postman and he replies 'morning, lovely day' I don't think 'class'

If I owned Everton, I promise you I would sack Unsworth on the spot! I'd have basically said told him it has nothing to do with Martinez – you either want to work for Everton or not.

It's comments like that from Unsworth shows just how weak we are as a club and is the underlying reason we are not successful!!! Do you think Ronnie Goodlass would ring Martinez for permission!!! No chance, Ronnie has been as upset as the fans over the state of our club!

Time to get rid of these "toe the line" hangers-on! Whoever called Unsworth's interview as "class" get a life will you!!!

If I owned the club, Sharp, Stuart, Unsworth, Elstone, Kenwright and anyone else who supported Martinez would be booted right out of the door! I liked Unsworth until I read his interview, why don't you leave with the clown if you like him that much!!!

Everyone's a 100 per center now!

"Funny old game football"

Roberto decides to take Lennon off, Niasse on, hopefully in the attempt to stop the surge from the Hammers by having 2 up and giving them more to think about and restrain them. It doesn't work... on the basis that Lukaku's missed penalty is a fine margin which we never recovered from. It spiralled into a complete mess but if we could have just seen that game out...

In all seriousness, this should have happened months ago if only to see if Unsworth could manage the side.

It's time we did our talking on the pitch.

Hey I just had a really good light bulb moment.

Eureka!

Let's start a Toffeweb poll to get Neville Southhall on the board to represent the FANS.

Now that would be interesting. NSNO.

Let him carry on letting off steam on the after dinner circuit.........provided you're not easily shocked by a very generous use of every conceivable expletive in the book!!!!

Now, that could be total lies, but it is a good yarn, and it is similar to what I want the new manager to say to our squad when he arrives at his first training session. A handful of players who think they should be in the Champions League acting so, and X Manager making them run hills shouting "I only got this job because you lads couldn't win games!"

I don't think Rhino is the long term solution as too close the player's. Norwich are down so its a nothing game but hopefully they will both play for pride and give us a great game and we win 3-0.

I prefer to see 4-4-1-1 with Barkley further forward, closer to Lukaku: however, if it doesn't work, then give Dowell the last 20-30 mins for Barkley and let him play and get some Premier League experience. Same for Davies on for Barry or Besic after 60-70 mins.

Barry and besic holding; two wingers in Mirallas and Lennon. No Cleverley or McCarthy as, to be honest, they're not worth a start at the moment.

Back 4 same as Sunderland only because we haven't got any better options; again, after 60-70 minutes, introduce Connolly or Holgate for one of them.

Let's give lift-off to some of our future stars in a positive environment, Goodison gloom has lifted and we can cheer every good thing these kids do.

I have the greatest respect for him as a youth coach and ex-player but I find it difficult to swallow that he wasn't glad to see a pair of clean heels of RM's brown shoes. A brandy and Cuban cigar, or something similar should have been the order of the day.

He was obviously not reading TW these past months. This Club needs to be purged of everything Martinezesque, from players to staff to back-slapping cronies.

He should've said that both the manager and the players were to take the blame but that's the past and now we move on. Next question.

The paragraph above which starts 'Two semi-finals' is Unsworth channelling Martinez bullshit babble. Tell it like it is, man! I suggest Unsworth gets his tongue out of Martinez backside and gets on with the job at hand.

Anyways, I'm not talking about Martinez again. He's history.

I did not say 'failed investments'... I said 'lack of investment'. The clubs I mentioned all had really good investors and had new stadiums; we had nothing new... and for that matter, still haven't.

We are a long way from being The Merseyside Millionaires as we were often described in the days of Sir John Moores. Maybe now we will get some action towards a new ground of our own.

Take a well earned rest Bill, focus upon your prime concern, please ? Get well, just get well.

Everton, need to likewise, focus upon some serious hard issues, and you know Bill, just like you mate, when we do our circumstances will take a great bloody turn for the better.

I bet that Everton improving will do you the bloody world of good Bill. This club CAN damage a good mans health.......
Sir John......
Harry.......
Howard.......
William Ralph.......

Get well Bill.
