The return of David Moyes

[windymiller]

He wasn't wrong though. I was at OT that night and he was on the end of some awful chants.

Boo hoo. Did some big boys call him some bad names?

Erm, you only get five years at a club if you do well in the short, medium and then long-term.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

David Moyes isn't the only manager on the planet that can avert relegation. I'm as happy as the next man that the East Midlands ginger stain is gone but replacing him with a marginally better dour and drab ginger is thoroughly disappointing. It also doesn't exactly scream "new owners, new Everton" either. This is straight from the Billy Liar playbook.

Like I said earlier , Moyes is the comfort blanket for Kenwright’s children.
Be a touch ironic if he is the manager who finally takes us down though.
Ask Sunderland about that .

 

[BluePeadar]

Why do you think Coleman or Baines being part of the staff would be amazing?

Would give hope where hope is scarce lately.
Nothing concrete or proven but they seem like coaches for the future so we get first dibs on them too. Win win

...and destroyed them for a decade.

Oh that was all his fault? Not that the squad he inherited was ageing and nothing to do with the fact that the likes of ETH spent half a billion on players and are still no better.

 

[maccavennie]

If it really is 2+ years then I'm just hoping that there are some break clauses in there.

There is mate, they've given him 2 breaks in the contract and titled it "pre season" the clever buggers

 

[MikeH72]

Exactly.

He's not a short term option (nor the long term) for me, based on his 2 half a season jobs at West Ham, Sunderland, Man Utd and R.Sociedad.

It’s quite strange that you would throw all those stats at us and then relentlessly back Sean Dyche, I must say.

Can’t believe you @Goat

Huh??????

Not all. But mostly. If he couldn't handle players that's his fault.

Gone full Dave this year has our overlord. Sad to see.

If you look at Moyes in relegation fights, he was successful at Everton, Sociedad and West Ham. And Sunderland was pretty much potless - they couldn't even afford to use their ice bath as it cost too much to run!

Nothing to do with the fact that some of the players literally downed tools.

 

[JobForTheMoyes]

If someone has a 90% success rate in relegation fights, does that make them a bad relegation fight candidate or a good one?

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

We never lost a derby by more than 3 goals under Moyes. We only lost by 3 goals twice in 11 years.

We lost by 4 goals twice in 3 years under his successor.

Haha
See this is what I mean
The Kenwright and Moyes acceptance of failure You are seeking justification in the relative scale of defeats
Defeat is defeat , failure is failure.
And after 11 years Moyes was.failure as an Everton manager .
I am old enough to remember when underdogs visited Goodison they didn’t own it .
