The Phone In

[kikoefc]

I dont know if anyone else listened to the phone in after the match on radio merseyside, but there were a few interesting points brought up by two different callers. One feller, a Scouser who works in Scotland, claims that the talk is rife that David Moyes will be the next manager of Celtic. He claims that Strachan is not liked by the club and the fans, and the club are not too concerned about success domestically anymore, they just want a good crack at Europe. And another feller, who started off by saying he has been told by a person within the club that the players confronted Moyes after the derby, said that the rumour is that Kenwright is lining up Alan Curbishley, should Moyes leave the club. If true, could be the worst decision ever made by the club.

I would say that them rumours are a pile of sh*te, I'm a Moyes fan, but if success in Europe is what your after DM is unproven, and Curbishly???

Alan Curbishley?

Marcus Bent is all I'll say to that one.

My mate, who is partner in a football agency emailed and said that Everton checked out the availability of Martin Jol.

thought Jol was a bit harshly treated by spurs, [ not that I want DM to go,], and he looks like Tony Soprano!!

Bilic and Jol - them 2 could be good. Anyone else average. And if anyone mentions Allardyce - ill give them negative rep

If you look in the mirror and say Jol three times he'll appear and drop Neville from midfield.

I live in Glasgow and there is no rumour about Moyes. Yes, Strachan is not liked but Moyes is not on his way. That is just speculation.
On another point DM has lost the plot IMO. Tonight he played Cahill and Neville in centre mid. One is not suited to a 4 man mid and the other is crap/ a defender. He had the opportunity of playing Arteta there with Castillo, both international class midfielders. Also, in the last 2-3 years Arteta has consistently been poor with free kicks and corners. he always hits the first defender. Why has the manager said enough is enough? If DM wants to go then let him. This dull slow football is depressing.

Spot on. Baffling stuff.

I do not want Moyes to leave.

That said, if he goes, Martin Jol would be my absolute first choice to replace him.
