Moyles is well out.

Not a Moyes hater - just still think we need someone else with new ideas.
Excellent performance last night, MOM to Distin he had Tevez in his pocket and was immense. Still think that both Yakubu and Bilya should have started but Vic put himself about and I guess that was Moyes' intention. So credit where it is due.
Osman still not a winger, Bilya did more in his 15-20 min. that Osman in the rest of the game.

At the end of the day, it's the result that matters. That's why with 4 wins in 18, Moyes and his men still have plenty of work to do. As other posters have mentioned, we've done reasonably well against the better teams this season so it wasn't entirely surprising to see us getting a result at Shitty. It was backs to the wall stuff for 70+ minutes, and I thought we were Blackburn in disguise at times but that can probably be attributed to the fact that we were 7 games without a win (going in), and absent of two of our best 'footballers' so I'll give Moyes the benefit of the doubt. Still, If I were to be overly critical, I would say that our ball retention was below par for a team looking to push into the top 7/8. All in all, a win's a win and hopefully this will bring back some confidence and some better football to boot.

I think the best question to ask is this the "Phil Neville tackle moment" that'll kick start the Season. We got to push the passion on into the next game, play some good football, create some pressure and GET RUTHLESS.

So beating a mid-table team at home is a better result than beating a team who are in the top 4 and could have gone top last night in their own back yard? *facepalms*
Moyes has quite rightly been slated this season and at the end of the day we all want everton to win.
Great result and spirit shown last night we now need to build on it,we still have a lot of work to do
Last night - 10-man win away against a good team. Solid, organised display in the main. 11 on 11, City had 56% posession, and hardly penetrated. Not bad for a team containing Silva, Toure, Tevez, et al. We didn't keep the ball as well as anyone would like, but we were without Arteta and Pienaar. Fel was deployed very well, and clearly Moyes has seen City struggle to break through two banks of four a few times this season.
This season - a single win doesn't redeem any manager for a poor campaign, but the majority of teams this season will feel like they've underperformed. There really isn't a massive gulf in quality anymore. If we were to win three in a row from this point we'd be 7th or 8th and in with a shot of europe. I'm less happy with Moyes than I was six months ago, but there is NO way we would benefit from getting rid. Conservative tactics and substitutions are irritating, but it's exactly the same style that got us three successive top six finishes. I think we're all frustrated at feeling SO close to the 'top four' a couple of years ago, only to see Spurs and City leapfrog us. But Moyes isn't to blame there.

No, but beating Liverpool is, even if they were doing poorly at the time, especially considering recent results against them, and the relative performances in the two games.
Oh, and I think you were looking for this....

Have to give tubey 10 points for consistancy and clear arguments to back up his opinion. Also man enough to acknowledge his mistakes when pointed out.
Was it just my impression or did Fellaini do the oposite of what he normally does. He seemed to always receive facing the City goal, turn and pass the ball back. Certainly in the 2nd half

i gotta say great result and great display by moyes the players and the fans!! was great to see!
but imo moyes has still got along way to go too get me to love/believe in him anywhere near as much as i did!
just cant get some niggley things out my head! like another slow bloody start to the season and why can we only play well against the "better sides" and his tatics (players out of position and team selection being my main gripes!)
and yes moyes gets priase for last night as we won! but that also means he can get criticised when he fooks up and loses games! (west brom and newcastle at home anyone)
but i suppose im a kopite,snide,tit, ect.. now though!
this place has gone so far downhill its unreal!
