Every quote and every press conference Moyes does, he comes across bored and "not arsed" about everything.

I'm clinging on to the vague hope he's not a total idiot mate. There HAS to be a reason why he's coming out with comments like this, other than to excuse the failings on the field right now.

It's coincided with the transfer window and I'm hoping there's a clever reasoning behind it. Maybe to shortsell the greedy agents or something.
 
We dont buy players anymore.

11 years of fathead Kenwright in control and a manager has to say that. No wonder he's hiding in his bunker frightened to come out.

I'd imagine he said it because he genuinley thinks fathead is a supporter as well as the chairman, and that if he did have the cash he'd give it to him. So maybe the statement was aimed at the members of the board who do have hundreds of millions?

Imagine being Moyes looking to bring in bargain basement loan signings and knowing the absent director Robert Earl is sitting on his £200+M fortune playing golf with Stallone and Donald Trump?

Good logic. Could be a veiled attack I suppose. But if it was, it should have had a bit more "oomph" to it.
 
Dave we all know Earl does not give a toss. Perhaps Moyes us trying to stir some activity from BK by saying he is a great chairman and then comparing to Stoke.
 
having no money isnt the worse thing in the world as it may seem .......

in fact at times i was glad as it saved knee jerk reactions from a new owner , the fact that "smaller" clubs are buying players we cant is annoying but not end of the world [Poor language removed]!!!

i have bigger problems in the fact that there is major issue in our play, that so many players are so off form and the players been picked dont seem to justify their inclusion....yet if you were to listen to DM he paints a different picture to what i have been seeing since august

i want the DAVID MOYES of old back, the guy who bought many many cheap players got a massive return from them and the whole squad wore their hearts on their sleeves.... i dont want to be hearing regularly of how we have no money or how glad he was someone turned up and played for him

bullshit actions speak louder than words
 
I'm trying very hard not to simply type "Moyes Out" after reading that, but it's difficult.

When it comes to something like this (getting the most out of a cash strapped club), I still think Moyes is the best man for the job. Few (if any) other top quality managers would tolerate the lack of budget Kenright has us on.

I think it's fair to get on Moyes for defensive tactics and some poor/poorly-timed subs, but as a shrewd manager of the wage bill and consistantly purchasing players at great value, I don't know of a single manager that is better than Moyes (his string of hits far outweighs his misses - or TBDs).

I think this comment is really just Moyes showing support for the club and his boss. Airing dirty laundry or fracturing that relationship doesn't do anything beneficial. I'm sure Moyes is as frustrated as all of us are in the privacy of his own home - he just can't afford to show it publicly without doing far more damage than good.

Imagine if he had come out and said, "I've got a really crap chairman but that's the situation we're in at the moment. I need money and I'm not being given it." that is drawing a line in the sand. At best, Kenright may give him some cash out of embarrasment/rage and the two would get past it.

At worst, Kenright still doesn't give any more cash. Then he and Davey stop talking and off the field issues start showing on the field (ask the red [Poor language removed] how their last 2 seasons were). After a few weeks, Bill fires Davey for insubordination, and since there is no one better willing to take the job at a cash strapped club with a bad chairman, we end up with Steve Round as the manager. Without Moyes, we see a flood of transfer requests (Cahill, Baines, Neville, Rodwell, Distin, Jags) and we can't bring in any new quality players since we don't have a top manager, we won't pay top wages, and we only look at loans and bosmans.

Is this really a better situation? Sounds like a recipe for relegation in a year to me...

11 years of fathead Kenwright in control and a manager has to say that. No wonder he's hiding in his bunker frightened to come out.

Its why at the moment, Im not too fussed if a Baines or a Rodwell goes in the summer for example.

Its inevitable due to how the club is.

i have thought this as well and my view was that i dont think he is genuinely under pressure from BK over our current predictament but its media based

like take our start for the last couple of years i genuinely think thats a serious issue that a team and manager( who on paper most would agree are decent) cannnot hit the ground running for a new season and we get riddled with " no money" , " injuries" " the league is gettting harder" excuses yet when we hit form the same skint small squad walks on water and the excuses disappear
 
I didn't like that comment to be fair. Though my main issue was with "You could say about Stoke today, their goalscorer cost a lot of money".

It's a bit of a cop out. Yakubu and Bily cost more, and both were sat on the bench.

The tide is turning i think Dan, don't get me wrong, and i don't want to spout a load of cliché's ( LMA, wonderful manager, Tim Cahill etc )

I just think, and wonder what's next?
