Sheedy on Moyes

[Dithering Dougie]

Clearly some bad blood between them, but I don't think this is the right way to go about anything. For one thing how can Sheedy now advise young players on the perils twitter and social media in general to all the young academy players while here's on it having a go at our former manager.

I think it's pretty poor from Sheedy personally.

Don't think Sheedy comes out of this well, at all.

Must have killed Sheedy listening to the wider footballing world praise Moyes for bringing young players through at Everton. Another Moyes Myth debunked, but hey, he used to stay at Finch Farm until 4pm some days, the workaholic.

yeah this is why i don't mind the rant so much. people always said how good he was with it, but it was pure myth, especially given the talent we're currently churning out through the youth.

just take ross barkley as the massive indicator. moyes was ok at it in his earlier years, but that was when we were nowhere near as good and nearer the bottom, as soon as we were settled, no youth players were coming through really, just the ones that had started previously.

i'm sure sheedy was just saying stuff to let know blues know the real truth rather than a personal attack on moyes himself - who knows.

Disappointingly unprofessional.

Those tweets sound like he was either hacked or smashed.

Why DM was in total control of our club, and I was never a fan of his - my Brother who is 65 vowed to only return when he went, he has now been back this season to some games , and RM to him is a breath of fresh air, a Manager who does not defend a 1-0 lead - sit back on the penalty area - I always knew he would be out of his depth at Man U - He won nothing at Preston and nothing with us - the relationship with him , and BK was far too cosy!

I thought smashed too.

What on earth has any of that got to do with Sheedy tweeting about Moyes?

 

[royalblue66]

He'll be gone before they come to Goodison mate.

Them words could turn out to be very true.

If they are from the man himself then what is wrong with that?

I have said for years Moyes would never play a youngster unless he had to and half of the time if they developed (ala coleman) in their best position then it was a bonus. The fact is Moyes had no faith in youth and you can see from how he actually used them (rodwell, anichebe, Vellios, Barkely to name a few) to see how succesful he was.

Here is another little thought, how many players were let go who actually were really good? As much as you can go 'oh well they have ended up at Brentford/Tranmere/Crawley, is that not down to the fact their club offered and provided no support in helping them make that next step up, and chose to instead loan them out to said divisions in the hope their eyes there would proclaim them the next wayne rooney?

Disappointingly unprofessional.

Agree with that. Not the kind of thing you want an employee of the club saying. Moyes can do and say what he likes, we should hold ourselves to a higher standard.

 

[mightymoyes]

only problem with this is sheedy not doing anything about it while moyes was at everton.

Moyes spent the entire of last summer putting the boot into his former club when he thought he had it made, perfect timing to boot him square up the tangerines if you ask me.

 

[neil999]

he could of done this alot more subtely in a proper interview, doing it on twitter makes him look a silly

Possibly true, and given Sheedy has deleted all of his tweets from last night, I dare say he regrets it. I'd imagine he's been given a pretty good rollocking by the club too.

However.... Sheedy let his guard down and basically told everyone what everyone already knew anyway.

Moyes spent last summer belittling Everton. Martinez was too nice (and new in the job) and didn't want a war at the time. So Moyes never really got his 'receipt' for his comments - maybe this is it now.

And at least he never wrote TWO BOOKS slagging off players who won him lots of trophies, like Ferguson did at United. So any United attempts at attaining the higher moral ground are utterly laughable.

What could he do? Moyes was the manager. The only option for Sheedy was to quit, and why should he do that?
