David Moyes - all reaction here

They are the second richest club in the world; three times richer than any domestic rival. If you think an entity like that goes off into the wilderness for a decade with a whimper you are sadly mistaken.

Quite.

But that isn't the point in question.

Which is Danny Mills saying it could be a decade before they win the league again.

That is not the same as saying they will go "off into the wilderness" with or without a "whimper".

Arsenal haven't won the league in almost a decade but they haven't gone off "into the wilderness".

Instead they have qualified for the CL every year and are involved in the Title race to some degree most seasons.

None of you guys can state with any certainty that Manchester United will win the league inside the next decade.

Danny Mills has not stated with any certainty that they will not win it for a decade.

He said "it could be ten years before they win it again".

Only time will tell :)
 
So when are we expecting the Moyes retort? This Sheedy volley ( ha ) will ensure he replies and it won't be pretty.

He'll try to be witty and end up making a balls of it, his Mini-me impersonation of Fergie is embarrassing

Naive post.

United are a massive worldwide entity, they will not allow a decade without a premier league title. They will spend money until they're back at the top.

Calling another poster Naive whilst not realising that the situation united would 'not allow' has actually happened over the park already mate is a bit ... well ... Naive really, how much have the rs spent? How massive a worldwide entity are the rs again? How many years have they been without a title?

You talk like it's a simple matter of spending money guarantees the title or some such, the rs prove otherwise, plus you have 2 other teams in the league who can blow united out the water in terms of spending power mate you think their gonna sit back idly and watch?
 
I feel sorry for him now, Gary.

And I hate the way EFC are being dissed every time a Manc fan or a meejah knowitall says "he isn't used to managing a big club".

Yeah I know what you mean, we have come in for some stick as for months now Man Utd fans have been accusing him of turning them into Everton. However we are above them and have been playing much better football this season than them.
To be fair to the Man Utd fans I think that they were disappointed to get Moyes as they wanted Mourinho or Guardiola, it looked odds on after Jose was interviewed after Real had knocked them out of the CL. I think he'll be gone after the City match next week if they go out of Europe & lose the derby to be replaced in the summer by the most famous manager that they can get from a "big" club, probably Klop.
 
One of the by-products of the Moyes fiasco for me is that I am now belatedly coming to hate Manchester United Football Club.

For years I loved seeing them win things because of the hilarious reaction of the Kopites.

When United won the CL in Barcelona with those two injury time goals, a Kopite came into work the next morning with his foot in plaster.

He had kicked his wall so hard after the winner he had broken a bone in his foot and was carted off to hospital :D

But now I am seeing the other side of United-dom.

The arrogant fans with a sense of entitlement.

The meejah fawning all over them.

I hate the way many of their fans call in the radio stations and indeed some broadcast and print journos themselves preface every criticism of Moyes with "no disrespect to Everton.....but..."

When people say that they actually do mean to disrespect our fine old club.

Even yesterday when it became evident that the RS were going to win, I started enjoying the pain United's fans were feeling.
 
@Khalekan the fan attitude is really disappointing, but that is no reason to hate a football club.

Their fans are turning more and more into clones of Liverpool fans which is quite amusing but not a reason for hate.

Key Manchester United boardroom figures have now turned against David Moyes, as the prospect of the manager getting sacked has been properly raised for the first time, club sources have told ESPN.

The Glazer family owners are now more open to the idea of a change of manager, although they presently remain behind Moyes, but the next week could prove decisive, sources said. Over that time, United must overturn a 2-0 deficit in the Champions League against Olympiakos, before facing an awkward trip to West Ham United and then a potentially daunting second derby of the season against Manchester City.

also from the article:

Old Trafford sources also state it has been noted that Alex Ferguson is no longer so vocally backing Moyes at boardroom level, although the former manager is not said to have turned against his replacement. It is also believed Moyes retains the backing of Bobby Charlton.

and

A number of recently signed-up sponsors and commercial partners have reportedly let it be known to the club that they are less than enthused with now being linked to failure, especially since they specifically came on board because of the reputation for extreme success.

I hope this recently signed-up sponsor is Chevrolet, which has never been linked to failure
 
Fair enough, but 100% of executives that make decisions based on approval ratings from supporter group websites should be dismissed immediately.
True!

However supporter fan sites are an insight into season ticket holders views and those who buy club merchandise. Advertisers spend large amount of money to target a clubs fans and that is a pretty overwhelming poll - to get 90% of people to agree on anything, even something such as "do you like cheese on toast", is surprising. It is a small sample size but if it is representative of a trend being reflected in club finances I cannot see him lasting the summer.
 
few weeks ago i got laughed at when i said they are protecting SAFs reputation...
...Moist would have been sacked already if he wouldnt have been chosen by SAF
