David Moyes

This reverse shit is boss. Imagine if we switched positions come May, from May 2013. They would cry for years.
 
The rumour from a few of my manc mates was he has a clause stating he couldn't be sacked in the first two years of his contract. Could be bullshit, they could have said no, or it could be music to our ears.
Ha ha ha - I love it when these kind of footy rumours come out. That's clearly bollocks!
 
Yea because Moyes would clearly have had the advantage during the contract negotiations. Utd were bloody lucky to get him.
 
This interesting loop brought to you by Moyes:

Man United Aren't Winning -->
"We need our fortune to change, our luck to change" -->
"We can only blame ourselves and we need to do better. We are not looking for excuses for it, BUT..." -->
"...there has been some circumstances where a bit of luck's been missing" -->
"Winning changes it - and we have not won often enough."-->
Man United Aren't Winning

Stating and re-inforcing the obvious! 😀
 
"Anybody who watched the game the other day and didn't think we deserved to win by a hundred miles knows nothing about it."

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Manchester United: David Moyes says champions need better luck
Manchester United manager David Moyes says his side need their luck to change to turn round their faltering season.
United take on Arsenal at Emirates Stadium on Wednesday with the Champions in seventh place - nine points off the top four and a Champions League place.
They are 21 points worse off than at this stage last season and have lost five times in 2014 as well as drawing with bottom-placed Fulham.
"We need our fortune to change, our luck to change," said Moyes.
United's season of woe

  • 1 Sep: A Daniel Sturridge goal condemns United to a 1-0 defeat at Anfield
  • 22 Sep: Suffer a major setback, losing 4-1 in the Manchester derby.
  • 28 Sep: Lose 2-1 at home to West Brom
  • 19 Oct: Held to a 1-1 draw at home by Southampton
  • 4 Dec: A 1-0 defeat at Old Trafford by Everton
  • 7 Dec: Newcastle loss marks two home defeats in four days
  • 1 Jan: A disastrous New Year's Day - a 2-1 home defeat by Tottenham
  • 5 Jan: Knocked out of the FA Cup by Swansea at Old Trafford
  • 19 Jan: A rampant Chelsea beat United 3-1 at Stamford Bridge
  • 22 Jan: Dumped out of the League Cup by Sunderland on penalties
  • 1 Feb: Stoke beat United 2-1 with a Charlie Adam winner
  • 9 Feb: Held 2-2 at home by bottom club Fulham
"There are definitely things in the games which have gone against us."
He highlighted David De Gea's error against Sunderland that denied United a place in the League Cup final and Sunday's 2-2 draw with Fulham, when the Cottagers equalised in injury time at the end of the match.
"We can only blame ourselves and we need to do better," added Moyes. "We are not looking for excuses for it, but there has been some circumstances where a bit of luck's been missing.
"Winning changes it - and we have not won often enough."
Moyes also insists United - who reported an 11.6% rise in revenues for the second quarter of their financial year on Wednesday - played well against Fulham and brushed off criticism off his tactics on Sunday.
"On any other given day you would win the game quite comfortably," he added. "Anybody who watched the game the other day and didn't think we deserved to win by a hundred miles knows nothing about it.
"A lot of people are looking at the Fulham game and saying we crossed it too much. If we hadn't crossed it, they would be saying we should have crossed it more.
The former Everton boss, who took over from Sir Alex Ferguson in the summer, also says he intends to make changes at Old Trafford but believes he still has a strong squad
"There's a really good group of players here," he said. "They have shown it previously. I see them every day, I see how good they are.
"There's a little bit of transition period and we're looking to make some changes as we go along, but we've got a really good squad, I'll look to add to it, but that's what Manchester United have done over the years."

Ha ha ha - I love it when these kind of footy rumours come out. That's clearly bollocks!

It could be interpreted as him being rewarded with a full compensation should he be sacked within the first two years of the six year contract, which kind of makes sense to me in terms of how his agent will have wanted to negotiate. It was an aging squad and they didn't want any knee-jerk reaction made by the club should he not have been able to compete for the title initially. The club might have reluctantly agreed. Nobody saw how incredibly bad they'd be. Good times!!
 
He doesn't have to win tonight as he has already proved he is a winner, even though he's never won anything but you don't need trophies to prove that you are a winner.
I love that - I want to see that picture again but I don't know where to find it. Can anyone help out?

Exactly my thinking, MU know he's a risk having never managed on their scale before, he knows it's a risk taking that job.They'll offer reduced terms if he's canned to reduce the monetary risk after giving an relatively unproven manager a 6yr deal and his agents will have no doubt asked for something to counter that. Interpretations, chinese whispers and a bit of fan bullshit later.... dodgy/misconstrued rumours. I'd love it to be true though.
 
100% of the time, it makes me LOL every time.
I love the manager of the month award, that shows that he's a winner.

They tried to paint the 800m swimming badge he got when he was a kid but the 'artist' couldn't remember if it had a shark or a seal on it so decided to leave it out for the sake of realism.

It's amazing that something so earnest should become the finest bit of Moyes satire of which it would be possible to conceive.
 
It truly is amazing. So much of it is hilarious... the attempt of self reassurance that trophies aren't a measure of success, the pathetic sentence structure and lack of grammar, the hideous drawing, the manager of the month trophy, the thought of Moyes seeing it and reluctantly signing it, the fact that whoever did it has no idea how apostrophes work so decided to leave them out altogether... I really don't know what I like best about it. A WUM Liverpool fan couldn't come up with better.
 
David Moyes, you beautiful ginger gollum neanderthal face-rubbing twat. I never knew I could love you like this.

This ^^^^^ 1000% - Like Doc Mac it never ever fails to make me laugh. It's perfection.
 
I keep on being brought back to that giddy sense of disbelief when he was appointed, encapsulated by Gene's celebratory reminders that David Moyes, was indeed, Man utd's manager. Well, thus far, it has been every bit as good as in our happy imaginings. Keep it up Moysey! The Appointed one!
 
It's true Doc. It's turning out even better than I thought. So I'm getting worried that he'll quit or be sacked before he's had a chance to really stamp his vision on the club.
 
I really didn't think he'd be this bad. In fairness to one of my bluenose mates, he called this months ago. He was never really a fan.

You wanna meet the man that did it. He's very special.
