Well im in my 30s, Maybe it was me watching MOTD as a kid in the 90s you couldn't get away from John Motson saying "Everton have spent longer, scored more, won more, etc than any other club in the top flight of English football" every single time they were playing. Obviously at the time when...
I also associate them with second tier, but I thought they'd have spent around 30-40 seasons in top flight. Since they were also in the top flight in the 70s.
22 seasons is even less than Fulham.
Only 4 seasons outside the top flight,
118 out of 122 seasons.
Not that shocking really. Well known. Maybe Unless you're 30 and under.
Everton were a bigger club than Liverpool until the 60s.
Everton also had won more league titles than United up until 1995.
Post Premier league era is...
We are currently in the 122nd season of English top flight football. That's not the fact that shouldn't be true. It's that Crystal Palace have spent 100 of those seasons outside the top flight.
Go to most football fan forums and you will see the same thing.
Football fan culture is known to be fickle. Arguably the most fickle sport, maybe boxing beats it.
Three major events that effected English football
1.) 1915
English league suspended due to World War (resumed in 1919/20 season)
2.) 1939
English league suspended due to World War 2 (resumed in 1946/47 season)
3.) 1985
English league banned from European competition for five seasons
Everton...
You must be a kid who only knows his football by playing video games.
So the only way to reply in a way you understand.

Back in the day you could pretty much get away with being a massive lump, 6ft 4 who could head the ball if you go back far enough.
Some tactics at the top levels of the proffesional game were as simple as 4-4-2 with teams based on wingers who could run to byline and put a cross in.
The game...
The best Everton central defender IMO, is injured right now. Mason Holgate. Mina looking shaky, or badly needs a run of games.
As for Pickford, he's been getting a lot of stick. But he was excellent against Tottenham. Just needs consistency.
No. I didn't say they have all of a sudden become the WHU of the north.

How long have you been watching football? Five years?
Everton have won 9 league titles.
West Ham zero
Everton have finished in the top 6, 45x in their history.
West Ham? 5.
The last five seasons Everton have had five different managers and have lost focus spending too much on some players...
I lived in southern Germany for 2 years. Visited Munich a lot, which is actually my favourite city in Germany.
Winter? It's waay waay colder in Germany. Really harsh winters that England simply does not have. People think it's colder in England in winter but it's actually mild in winter in...
Only foreigners have a bone to pick with the English press.
Meanwhile in England, nobody takes the English press seriously.
Anyone who has ever lived in a foreign country for a while and can actually speak another language other than English will see other countries do exactly the same thing...
