McBain
Player Valuation: £80m
How much exactly do you think 2 weeks of contract would be to us? Or do you think he should of signed his contract so Manchester United would give us money... or of course more likely gone elsewhere for their replacement?
It the Principal of the thing isn't it?
Everybody knows Moyes has done a great job, stabilizing the club in times of difficulty.
He's made mistakes and won little battles, but the majority would have liked to see that trophy, that justification of all that hard work. It hasn't happened, and it's not the end of the World, we'll still be here next year.
But Moyes won't be.
It's common sense to now close ranks, move aside Moyes with a hearty handshake, pats on the back all round and onto 'Gardening Leave' as they are calling it.
People making the point referring it to any normal employment aren't seeing the big picture. And no disrespect to you, Sir, but it doesn't make any sense.
Okay so all the players Moyes has been looking at, this year in particular, are they still our targets?
Will the players that are still here be in a new Managers plans?
A new Manager will come in and now build on what Moyes has done this year in that regard? No, of course he won't. Because now rather than complimenting the great players we have, they'll most likely go with Moyes, as will the back room staff.
My point in this fiasco is that the sooner we start planning for the future the sooner we start planning for the Future.
No wonder we're always being played by our supposed 'Rivals'.
And that's how we should look at them. Rivals. Not Superiors.
