Former Everton manager Ronald Koeman took to Twitter a few days back to express his displeasure at an order he’d made for his daughter’s wedding not turning up as planned.
The Tweet says it all to be fair.
3 months ago we have ordered 60 pairs of @HavaianasEurope for the wedding of my daughter. The order has been fully paid, but until now not received. According to @havaianas the package is lost and they don't provide any further information. Very disappointing & a lack of service!

First off, hopefully, it won’t ruin or overly complicate his daughters’ day but with that said, that certainly wasn’t the first thought of many fans given Koeman’s ill-fated spell at Goodison Park.
Questionable signings, questionable results – and yes, it’s fair to say a good portion of fans felt he needed longer to get the group playing as he wanted and a good portion of fans weren’t happy with Sam Allardyce as his replacement – but sometimes an opportunity comes along that’s too good to miss when it comes to making a couple of damn good cracks at somebody else’s expense and some amongst the fanbase took full advantage of that when seeing Koeman’s complaint.
It wasn’t just playful Scousers that got in on the act, Southampton fans have their own issues with our ex-gaffer and fans from across the spectrum couldn’t resist adding a barb here or there either.
Made me smile at any rate.
???????? or they all just looked like they were playing in those flip-flops

Ronald. A True Evertonian. Cheap as. ..????
Did they send 50 million pairs to Iceland perhaps?

12 months ago I paid for 4 season tickets hoping to see Everton play some football Ronald, lack of service was an understatement

4 years ago I dreamt about a World Cup with the Dutch team present. The staff and team have been fully paid, but until now they didn't deliver. According to the KNVB nothing can be done and they don't provide any further information. Very disappointing and a lack of service!
