The '
Moyes getting a new contract' stories: bit premature IMO.
If TFG really are hard ball people then they wont be deciding to do that on the strength of a manager securing 46 points so far this season. Hels dong ok but he isn't ripping it up and making a contract extension a no brainer.
The little newspaper stories are coming out now though by
Moyes-friendly sources. This is what goes on trying to shape the narrative.
IMO there should be no new contract past next season unless we get Europe this season. His reward for top 10 should be he set out a top ten finish (very likely) and nothing more than that.
This isn tester for the owners. We'll see how serious they are about wanting us to be successful on the pitch in terms of how they handle those permutations above.
Id they hand Moyes a new contract and we fail to make Europe you'll know they're in this club to mind it for a few years and then sell it.
