Two weeks ago, as Marco Silva's reign as Everton manager lurched towards its inevitable ending, graffiti was daubed on the walls of Goodison Park. Sprayed in white on the blue-painted brickwork, it read: "No Hughes, Moyes, Howe - SILVA OUT - F---Moyes."
The views of one disgruntled supporter don't reflect the position of every Evertonian, but if radio phone-ins and message boards are a true gauge of the supporters' feelings, whoever used that spray can at Goodison certainly understood the sentiment running through the Everton fanbase right now.
Following Silva's dismissal last week, less than 24 hours after a 5-2 Merseyside derby defeat against Liverpool at Anfield, Everton are looking for their fourth permanent manager in the space of three-and-a-half years.
