2007–08 Everton F.C. season

After a sluggish start, Everton climbed the table and stood fourth with ten games left to play. Unfortunately, Everton only won three of these ten games and finished the season in fifth, with 65 points.{{Cite web |url=http://www.statto.com/football/teams/everton/2007-2008 |title = Everton 2007-2008 Home - statto.com |access-date=15 July 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120718061458/http://www.statto.com/football/teams/everton/2007-2008 |archive-date=18 July 2012 |url-status=dead |df=dmy-all }} In many other seasons this would have been good enough to clinch fourth place and Champions League qualification - indeed, Everton finished with more points than they had in 2004–05, when they had finished fourth - but, due to the good form of arch-rivals Liverpool, Everton were forced into fifth, consigning them to UEFA Cup football. Nonetheless, this was a great result for a club with limited financial resources, and served to enhance manager David Moyes' reputation as one of the best managers in England.
