Having seen what he's done so far, the thought of giving him another couple of years to "stamp his mark on the team"....is ******* terrifying.

About 33 years. (It's been questioned before, normally throw away fans on here)

Just wondering why we never saw you in here before, I don't every remember the older threads filled with hundreds of your posts like we get nowadays, did you not know we had a football forum back then?

But we were given a footballing lesson yesterday ....

Apparently so.

Not that we ****ed a couple of set pieces and Eto'o got a lucky deflection.

Eto'o definitely meant to hit Carricks foot, I thought that was obvious?!!

I'm all for giving someone patience but with Moyes I haven't seen anything before he was at man u let alone now that gives me any reason to think he's the right man for the job...

I didn’t post much in the forums for a number of years and then lurked in here before finally coming in.

Outplayed and still lost 3-1...and currently 14 points off the top of the league. Look at our goal difference we deserve to be there too.

You've made up for it though eh

Sympathy may be rare for David Moyes, but let's end with some. One has to point out the manager's misfortune over the loss of both Robin Van Persie and Wayne Rooney. Last season, of the 24 matches that the pair both started in all competitions, United won 19, drew four and lost just one.

This season, Moyes has been without one or both of his striking options for 14 league games out of a possible 22. United have taken just 17 points from these 14 games. Conversely, in the 8 league games in which the two have featured, United have won six and drawn two. That's a difference of 1.3 points per games, or 59 points over a season. Sink or swim, effectively.

Get well soon lads.

That's not strictly true though is it?

I remember a brief interlude a few years back. Still got the tat's?

 

[The Running Man]

Hmm I remember the season before van persie and believe it or not we didn't finish 6th...

Could I say anything that would make you think it's not entirely Moyes fault? Probably not so I won't bother.

You xan stop trying to make excuses or defending him aye. That would probably help if you are a utd fan.

I guess the crux is don't buy your two best players in the same position. And don't rely on one of them who has a history of injury.

You won the treble before Ronaldo came along. Quite clearly having him in the side wasn't needed.

My god your logic at times is like Charlton beat Westham. Manu lose to westham so Charlton are a better side than Manu.

Have you even read my posts specifically about Moyes and how he's doing? I don't think he's doing particularly well, but there are many factors to this.

Popping up with a Moyes out one-liner every weekend isn't helping and is just lazy, meaningless support. You want him to fail. That's not support, it's tag-along glory hunting.

I don't want him to fail. Why would I want that? How does that benefit me when I want to watch United and instead feel like turning the match off 50 minutes into the game?

Tag along glory supporter? Thing is I knew he'd fail. Read back, who wrote today is the day football died on the day of his appointment. Answer, it wasn't you. Or any of the Utd fans who are suddenly jumping on the Moyes out or the it's not Moyes fault bandwagon.
