He's kept us top 8 in the table with a tiny amount of financial backing, less than Fulham, Newcastle, Villa, and Stoke.

The reason we haven't won anything has a lot more to do with the board than it does Moyes. I don't see any manager who we could realistically get coming in and winning something by default.

I think this is a ridiculous statement. Moyes has stuck with this club and all its associated bull**** for the past decade.

It was pretty obvious by his remarks about it that he was absolutely gutted by the collapse of the Fer deal, which was most likely the final straw in dealing with this board. If he is truly going to walk away in the summer, what should he do?

Complain to the media about lack of transfer funds? (Benitez, Graham at Spurs, etc.)
Publically campaign for another job in the second half of the season? (Redknapp)
Throw his toys out and quit immediately? (McLeish)

No, he's keeping shut about it because he's too much of a professional and cares too much for the welfare of the club. He knows that announcing his intention to leave now will have a detrimental effect on the spirit of the players.

I would argue that everything that has happened off the pitch at the club over Moyes' tenure has been an unmitigated failure:

-Multiple embarrassing disasters in the transfer market not even including players we simply could not afford (Fer, Ofoe, Banega, Obinna, etc.)
-Complete lack of any marketing strategy or non-television revenue increase
-Complete lack of any presence in the city of Liverpool and its public spaces (ever seen an Everton kit for sale at JLA? I haven't...)
-Having to sell our best players in order to avoid bankruptcy
-Borrowing money on unfavorable terms
-Selling Finch Farm and immediately leasing it back
-Poor shirt sponsorship deals relative to other clubs
-Failure to find investment or a buyer, including refusing to state a valuation
-Failure to sign a first XI players for TWO YEARS while losing Arteta, Pienaar, Yakubu, Beckford, and more.
-Utter lack of communication with supporters, going so far as to cancelling AGMs
-Failure to make any progress on a new stadium or Goodison redevelopment
-Always out of pies at half time

Seriously, I am absolutely astonished that people spend time slating the manager about a perceived negative philosophy or our away record at teams that outspend us by an order of magnitude or a couple of duds in the transfer market. Everyone makes mistakes, even Ferguson has made a loss of 26m on Berbatov, bought Juan Veron, and bottled the title last year by losing to Wigan and drawing us at OT. Nobody is infallible. Yet it seems many here expect the manager of Everton to be.

Meanwhile I challenge you to name one thing that the board have gotten right in the last ten years. (which by the way Moyes has never criticised even when he has had perfectly reasonable grounds to do so)

Your anger is misdirected.

Bang on. Wish my ability to give rep hadn't been wiped out. Would love to big this up.
 
He's been here ten years, earned a fortune, and then treats us all with such disrespect. Close the door on your way out Whinging Arse, and lets see where you are in a couple of years

One of the most level headed posts in recent memory. Well done sir.
 
Moyes has a big bank account to be thankful for from Everton. He's never rocked the boat with this board because he's had the safest job in the league.

We are not expected to win anything because him and Kenwright have fed this bollocks that Everton are punching above their weight which the Sky generation lap up.

If he goes, he goes. No one is bigger than Everton Football Club.
 
To be honest.... He's been here 10 years and nothings changed at board level and how they operate.

It's took him this long to cotton on to the glass ceiling and the incompetence of Board he's backed and defended for 10 years?

Strange...
