Knowing Howard, he meant on 9PM, 21 April, 2017.
Confirmed: Moyes sacked.

yes. nice to see a rational post amongst the noise on here. i think you're right. he is being sacked/agreeing terms etc.
The exact words the club used were
"He's not been sacked"
Very careful choice of words there.

Tbh Moyes' staunchest defenders nahealai and tomalonge would probably drive Welbeck to Spurs themselves if it meant Moyes got another season to build his own squad.
How long does it take to say "feck off?"
There's more movement in this thread than most of United's players this season.
Where is this coming from ?
Not with Everton.
Like I said to my ex missus before she broke up with me, "I just want things to go back to the way they used to be!"
They're probably giving him the full hairdryer in the boardroom with a slideshow of every feck up he has had this season, with detailed analysis.
Guess we'll wait until tomorrow for the meeting to finish!

fecking spoilers lad!
Just confirm it. Please.
Meaning 9.30pm GMT. It's gonna be a long 5 hours if true.
Four in the morning or 16:00?
It would have been pretty strange of we gave the man a 6 year contract without some kind of minimum requirements. Especially a manager that has won absolutely nothing for the duration of his 11 years with Everton.
The last straw!
Probably the fact that it became mathematically impossible for us to finish top 4 last game thus activating the clause.
This. I can't let myself get excited or believe it until it's confirmed.
There must have been some performance related clauses in that 6-year contract that they all had a good laugh at around the table when signing.
"Finish lower than 6th, better watch out! Haha"
"Finish lower than 6th, better watch out! Haha"
Somewhere in Old Trafford...
BBC journo:
Stock is off slightly. Price may not change much jf the market already factored his sacking into account.
Makes me wonder about the 10% pop in price last week. I speculated it was a short squeeze-but maybe this was in the works for at least a week.
How do we know for sure there is a clause ?
We're all thinking it to be fair, it's logical.. I wouldn't think a multi million dollar footballing franchise would give a lucrative 6 year contract to a guy who hasn't won anything in 11 years without some clauses and some minimum requirements.
The page froze for me there and I had to go out and back in again. I was convinced it was because it had been confirmed. I can't take waiting all day for this just give him the boot now.
Known as a non-denial denial.
Go to bed lads, I'm sure there'll be concrete news in the morning...
1600.
Except when the Glazers are reported to have met with van Gaal.
It's, er, a bit early?
SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT !
Shall we have a banner-cutting party?
It's 4:20pm
We dont obviously. Its just people thinking about how connections. Its been speculated for a while that not getting a top 4 spot was a get out clause for us. Yesterday, it became impossible for us to finish top 4 and today him about to be sacked is everywhere.
How will this dark period(Moyes) in our history be remembered 15-20 years from now?
ESPN said that we supposedly don't have to pay more than a year's severance.
Also, as I said at the start, it is quite 'convenient' that it's happening the day after it's finally mathematically impossible for us to get top four.
