2025/26 David Moyes

[GrandOldTeam]

Meanwhile, he's destroying any good potential player, like Alcaraz Dibling and, in the future, Armstrong. Someone should have a serious talk with him and force to take responsibility for his decisions (I.e not decisions).

On that, apparently he made some bizarre comment about not telling Dibling how he can improve - hoping someone can share them in full.

This squad won't finish top 10. They need reinforcements now and the club don't sound like they plan to do anything.

We have the worst full backs in the league. You can't get top 10 when you are so poor in certain areas.

Don't see why not mate, we're 21 games in and 5 points from 4th.

Hardly absurd to aim top 10.

That's another year wasted so.

He should be replaced on the final whistle of our FA Cup elimination. Sunday.

Its not happening. The owners will see things differently to us. All they'll see is that we stayed up and did it handily. We should want more as a club. I don't think we do

The trajectory is going completely in the wrong direction

Teams have worked us out and know our weakness and how to exploit it

This team needs strengthened now. It's not even a lack of ambition to do nothing this month - it would just be totally stupid.

I think 18 months was his deal.

The club never published the duration - unlike for Dyche and Lampard.

So you think his deal is over this summer ?? Seems the rumours was 2.5yrs who knows

Well, lack of ambition won't come without cost to these owners. That stadium won't be filling out for much longer and those season tickets won't quite be in the same demand if we have to endure much more of this Jurassic dross.

Bobble said 2 1/2 years at the time, last January

Never has a manager had a more apt nickname, dear old Dithering Dave. His teams are impossible to fully get behind because of they embody his fragile, dour personality.

I think we've been pretty consistent with form all season.

Shocking game management for the second game in a row

Substitutions (both the lack of and the timing of them) once again absolutely way off

 

[brooklyn blue]

Need to start looking for a replacement, going be a lot of clubs in the market come summer.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Needs to be replaced in the summer by someone with more tactical nouse and who can actually coach a squad & breed a winning culture within it.

He'll never change.

Think the owners have ambition,
Not sure they’re going to be happy bouncing around 13th when they know the fans won’t be

The press "reported" it as 2.5 - but the club never published that even though they did for the two previous managers. We thought that was strange on here at the time. If Moyes was a panic appointment - and he was as they had no intention of binning Dyche immediately - then why give him 2.5? 18 months was more than enough for "stability".

That said, this is just speculation. If these owners lack ambition, he'll be here a while longer yet.

Yes, as did the press. But the club didn't. Not officially.
