2025/26 David Moyes

[JobForTheMoyes]

Not much football to be played between now and the middle of April sadly. 11 days until Arsenal, then just a further game (Chelsea) between then and April 11 (Brentford).

Arsenal (a),
Chelsea (h),
Brentford (a),
Liverpool (h),
West Ham (a)
City (h)
Palace (a).

Pretty brutal run of games for Mr. Moyes to navigate. Brentford game is like a six-pointer as I think they could easily be 5+ points ahead of us by the time we face each other.

You have to expect we go to West Ham and Palace looking for the win though, and no reason why we cannot win both based off our away performances and results so far.

Really hope we don't revert back to type at home and lose those three while trying to achieve 0-0s, albeit against good opposition.

I hope this isn't where the season goes off the rails and we end up dropping back to 12th or something.

In some ways the home games are favorable as we won’t have to play on the front foot, which doesn’t suit our players.

It’s funny because us winning makes me happy but also people raging about Moyes after we win also makes me happy. Double viagra.

Well, if they rage too hard… You can always send them a ‘Get Better Soon’ card.

He is a renowned deep thinker who, through a blend of experience and a high IQ has the confidence to proffer his own opinion. He sneers at the middle finger brigade who struggle to articulate a thought. He considers them the forum underclass.

Does he?

People are debating which European competition they'd prefer to be in.

Happy days.

Think we would do pretty well in the Dutch league personally

 

[Mr Happy]

Only five points behind Liverpool at this stage of the season season is pretty terrific.

With this squad its miraculous. No full backs or strikers. Some achievement

 

[Mr Happy]

Any of these people?

Some research that lid ! Good effort.

 

[Marius57]

We beat Burnley, not by a cricket score either. It needs more than that to re-write the home story.

Burnley have only been beaten by more than 2 goals, 3 times this season.

Spurs, city and Sunderland.

They aren’t whipping boys getting tonked by 4 or 5 goals every week.

…..contract extension incoming

I don't think winning a home game against the worst team in the division having failed to win any of your last 7 home games justifies a contract extension! In my book it does get him to the end of the season though, and let's see where we are then.

The people of Got are mainly an intelligent bunch.
The man of the match poll from last night sees Dwight and Gana in the top 3 . 2 players the anti Moyes brigade were adamant should not be playing.
My goodness but he really piped ye down last night !!

Think they were responsible to this lil’ war on Iran too weren’t they?
That and the financial crisis in 08.

There seems to be an absence of many in this thread suddenly which is most peculiar and unexpected. The mind boggles why.

I'm one who thinks he should be moved on in the summer but fair play to Moyesy, he got it right last night.

It's easy to say Burnley were rubbish but you've still got to take advantage and whilst we weren't brilliant, we always looked in control and it seemed like a matter of time.

As someone said above, it'll be interesting to see how we do in the home games against the bigger teams when we can play our away style.
