So come on David Moyes,
Its time to say goodbye,
We're going wild wild wild, wild wild wild!

If we finish 7th again but show some ambition in our football, I would be inclined to give the manager more time. We looked atrocious this year.
I know the feeling. I kept saying week after week after the Olympiakos away game that I would be behind him if we started to show consistent improvements in some area of out play, or I started to get an idea of his philosophy for the club. Sadly, I never saw it.
At very least stop complaining about lack of communication from the club to them, whilst on the other hand torching people who run the club at every opportunity.
BBC text: Which Man Utd players would get into Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool? Rooney maybe. Van Persie when he turns up. That's it. Man Utd were supposed to be different. I'm done supporting them.
Shame... The way the press have hounded him and managers in general is atrocious. I wanted him to succeed and get himself out of this rut but it just doesn't seem to have been... I feel very disappointed for him.
Yeah, not surprising and what a lot of us expected... still, not nice to hear it.A shame. Probably should have expected it though. He is the man I REALLY wanted too

Yeah, I am going to believe him only when I want I've decided as to not bring my mood down.

saw that.Why what's been going on?
A story happened to be leaked a few weeks ahead of time is all, security didn't toss him out of Old Trafford to land on his ass in a rain soaked Sir Matt Busby Way.
The players have to take massive responsibility huh? Because we've seen that in bundles from the management. Some of what Moyes has said in front of the cameras hasn't been so very decent either.
I realise that Gary's ties to the club may temper any criticism of the manager but why go so far the other way?
Now this is how you begin the working week after a bank holiday weekend! Absolutely thrilled by this news... thrilled, and it was - of course - nothing but the right decision. Considering the amount of contempt I was beginning to harbour for the bloke, its probably also a good job for my sanity that he went ASAP.
I can't say I feel sorry for Moyes at all... Ultimately, it's hard to feel sorry for someone who has got something like £8 million for not being very good at his job...Not even that the money is relevant, as ultimately, I wouldn't feel sorry if a salesperson at work - who is incapable of making a sale - got fired tomorrow.
Also, in todays era of football, the man got plenty of time to try and input his ideas/philosophy/ways of working into the club/role... so really, I don't buy this "United didn't do what they said they would do in standing-by their man" ... because ultimately, we stood by him for longer then almost every single other club would have done.

There would have been a movie about this if Moyes would have been Mourinho
Dwight Yorke speaking utter sense on SSN saying the season has been enormously disappointing and its alot harder to keep a lid on things nowadays and things have changed. Also saying Players are equally responsible for the debacle this season but that its Moyes responsibility to motivate the team and the buck stops with him.
Good on you Dwight its nice to hear a United legend talking some sense!

Well, we all said it was better to be the guy who followed the guy who followed Fergie...
It's all set up for the next guy now to make the big changes needed. If this is an attempt to drag more out of the same group then it's not good enough. The Glazers need to spend. Both fullback positions, centre midfielders, new wingers to replace Nani, Kagawa and Young. It's a big shopping list.

Feels a bit odd this, I wanted this but I never thought it would come this soon.
That everton game really was the final straw for me. It was not about losing (had got used to that), but the dire football that was being served up. My support for him finally gave way, there was no way the club were going to trust him with a massive transfer kitty. And the football would have been the same next season.
Gary neville can feck off. This is great news and the club should have done this ages ago. Am delighted.
Surely you see the difference between supporting Ferguson and supporting Moyes? Please stop acting like the best fan in the world, you've been on that routine for a while and it's frankly tiresome. You're not better just because you support Moyes.
Mostly a continuation of much of what has occurred previously, so-called pundits doing all they can to shield Dave from criticism even at this late stage. Tactical weakness, coaching, poor motivation, transfer policy, none of these areas are being touched upon.
Has anybody of the press caught hold of Fergie or Charlton for comments on the sacking? Although I would like it if the press leaves Moyes alone for a few days to get over this.
Praise Jesus!!
I always said to give him til next Jan. However when the news broke yesterday I was not disappointed so I guess that's my real views on it. The club needs to secure the right manager now, and give him the time to do some decent work in the summer.
Van Gaal or Klopp would be my preferences. Klopp being my favoured, as right age, footballing philosophy, required personality, previous longevity, experience etc.
Van Gaal has the record at big clubs though, but also has a record of not being long term anywhere. Commands respect though. Very different managers in my view.

Dwight Yorke is an underrated pundit. Started a bit strangely many years ago (those suits were hilarious). but he's gotten alot better.
Fixed
Maybe others are, but I'm not. It could have been anyone who'd gone through this and I'd have felt bad for them.
He's actually gone? Best news of the season.
I think £10M for 9 months work will help him get over it.
Gary Neville dreadful in his comments. He's attempting a moral high ground speech when everyone knows he's saying "don't sack our Phil".
Lost any credibility he had previously - complete tool.

Was disappointed that there was no "She canee take the strain capt'n!!!" message. I thought the caf would jubiliate when Moyes gets sacked. But nothing.
The media have been atrocious this year in regards to Moyes, even by their own shit standards.
Money doesn't restore confidence, the belief. He obviously would be hurting very much. Any failure breaks a man's heart. This was a huge failure.
Odds on who's to be our next permanent manager
Just yesterday I was talking to my friend and said to him that I would be very surprised if Moyes wasn’t sacked before summer. Very surprised. You know it’s business after all for the glazers, clearly they see he is not the man for the job. Probably SAF sees it too.
My excitement is back!
