Everton fans slammed the club after appointing Graeme Sharpe to advise the Toffees' board of directors as the Players' Life President.

The former Blues striker is second only to legend Dixie Dean in the club's all-time goalscoring table, having netted 160 times in 447 appearances, as per Sky Sports, and previously returned to Goodison Park in an ambassadorial position in 2000. The Scotsman moved to Everton from Scottish side Dumbarton for £180,000 in 1980 and spent 11 seasons on Merseyside, before joining Oldham Athletic in 1991, according to TransferMarkt.

The Toffees made the official announcement on their website, where Bill Kenwright said that he could not imagine Everton without Graeme Sharp. Despite this, some fans were fuming with Sharp's new role and made their feelings clear on social media. One fan described it as "pointless", while another said that "it was just another wage to pay out as they cannot let the past go".
