David 'The Moyesiah' Moyes

[Silver Sean]

What a fucking pug-ugly useless cunt.
Whenever any of life's little challenges rears it's head these days (the little bollocks spitting on the pavement in front of me on the way to work, the numpty on the end of any 'help line' for a large corporation, the twat driving for miles in the MIDDLE FUCKING LANE) I just think of what Golum has achieved with the scum this season and continue on my way with a jaunty little kick of the heels.
Football genius.

Full of the joys of approaching spring, I see. 😀

Yeah he's not been great, but, he's a good manager and given time could drag them back into the top four, although certainly not this season. Sure, it's great to bask a little in the gloom of their demise while we march onwards and upwards, but I think there's a strong chance he'll have them firing much more strongly next season. They won't be title contenders next season, but they'll be competition for us, which gladly, they aren't at the moment.
The match at theirs will be an interesting barometer.

He was good up until joining them, but it's beginning to look like he's one of those managers who don't transfer easily to a higher level of challenge. Getting a Preston or an Everton to do better than expected is different from having to follow someone like Ginsoak at a club like that.

I expect us to be title contenders next season BTW.

I bloody well hope so. We will need to fight hard to retain our title, but I am confident we can

Yeeeeeeee, a David Moyes thread!

Hes simply bang average, never ever a top tier or even 2nd tier manager, most people who paid attention knew it, thats why there were so many people laughing their nuts off when he got the manc job.

Fuck knows where i saw it but there was this typically bitter rant from an Everton fan last season that stuck in the mind, the jist of it was that David Moyes is one of the best managers in the world and that Liverpool fans are jealous that they have got him we haven't, i wonder what that utter bellend is thinking now?.

One look at Moyes away record against us, Arsenal, mancs and Chelsea should of been enough to rule him out of the manc job alone.

You really do have to pinch yourself sometimes that this is actually happening.

 

[Spaghetti Legs]

Theres a bit on the BBC website looking back at their season and showing snippets of Moyes interviews after each defeat, his face gets longer and longer with each passing loss, you can see the despair in his eyes, he knows hes in way over his head and not in control of things.

Notice how someone has obviously told him to stop blaming luck, he seems to of changed tack with that piss poor excuse, now it seems to be 'i take resposibility, its my fault'... errr yeah, we all know that Dave.

Another Moyes thread?????

 

[Spaghetti Legs]

Yes, their empire is finally crumbling, make the most of it and have a laugh.

Carry on with the small timers mentally.

Carry on with the small timers mentally.

Wow, you really are a bigger twat than i originally thought!

Obviously you haven't but theres a lot of Liverpool fans and fans in general that have been waiting a very long time for this, seeing that club in the mess it is amuses me no end, its been a great season, i shall carry on being amused and happy by it all, killjoys like you can get to fuck.

Was it Mark Twain who said " rumours of my death have been greatly exaggerated"?

Believe me , when utd are dead and buried I will be amongst the first in the queue to dance on their grave. But until then, although I must admit to having a good feeling about their discomfort, I am not going to look on it as anything other than a temporary blip.

I look forward to the day when we have CL qualification assured and they are out of it for next season.

Then, and only then shall I rejoice!

I agree that we'll be title contenders next season, and it could be argued that we are this season already. The table doesn't lie. With regards to Moyes though, I think it's a little too early to judge whether he's failed at stepping up to managing a bigger club. His predecessor didn't fair too well to begin with. . .

 

[Judge Jules]

That's true, and I'm not reaching a final judgment on Moyes just yet. Ferguson didn't take over the defending champions though.

 

[mom]

Good point. I can't even remember where they were in the table in his early days. Much akin to his recent comments with regards to our league position. I bet he knows our league position now though.

 

[Judge Jules]

Yep. 😎 I'm not sure where they were when Ferguson started the job, but I do know they were down as far as 11th at one stage in those early days.

 

[OLD_Lewy]

moyes will be there for a good while, from what ive heard the glazers stick by shitty managers in their other team in america, theyll just try and throw money at the problem and it will be glorious to see moyes spend 20 mill getting distin to replace vidic

That will probably end up the case, not with Moyes in charge though, fuck it, if you can't take the piss and enjoy it now you never will.

Sir Alex Ferguson stole the show at a Los Angeles party for British Oscar nominees. The former Manchester United manager was the surprise guest at a party at the home of the British Consul-General Chris O'Connor, where he mingled with 26 British Oscar nominees and posed for photographs with partygoers.
Relaxing in the Consul-General's living room, he spoke for the first time of Manchester United's poor season and predicted better things to come. "They'll be all right," he said. "It's early days and there've been a lot of changes." And David Moyes? "He needs time. I was there for 27 years so with a new manager, it takes time. But they'll be OK."
Sir Alex, whose favourite film is The Godfather, was in Hollywood to attend the Oscars and the legendary Vanity Fair party afterwards as the guest of a friend. "I'm here for the big show," he said.
The rain-lashed party was held in the Consul-General's garden in the Hancock Park area of the city under a massive tent, hurriedly erected as the worst storm in three years hit Los Angeles.

Sir Alex Ferguson says he owes his success to being beaten with a belt by his favourite schoolteacher when he stepped out of line as a schoolboy.

Ferguson, 72, who stepped aside for David Moyes as Manchester United manager, says he now has the belt in his study at home after it was left to him by Elizabeth Thomson before she died.

"Six from that belt and you were in absolute agony. That was the punishment you had, in my case, usually for fighting in the playground," he told the Times Educational Supplement.

Ferguson, famous for his "hair dryer" dressing down of players, said: "Elizabeth Thomson was an inspiration to me. She had a raw determination about her and she improved everyone she touched.

"Mrs Thomson endeavoured to make you be the best you could be. Yes, that part of me comes from her."

He says he kept in touch with her long after his schooldays ended in the 1950s, doing so as manager of Aberdeen and then United before retiring at the end of last season.

"When she died, I couldn't go to her funeral but months later I got a parcel. She had bequeathed her belt to me.

"Her nephew sent it with a letter saying: 'You'll know more about this belt than anyone.' It's in my study now. My grandchildren are terrified of it."

Corporal punishment was banned in Glasgow schools in 1982.

So... are they going to whip Moyes now?

 

[RolandG]

Moyes' sole focus is on stopping us so it will be mighty interesting how we go about our business there. We must tear them a new one and get an emphatic result to boost us further. That will already have a nervous Mou looking over his shoulder.

What the feck was that idot doing at the Academy Awards? I guess he was one of those dullards they employ to sit in the seats vacated by those guests who have gone for a snort pee.

I think you're being very unfair with that post. I'm sure that some of those guests are genuinely going for a pee.
