Who authorised the bid for Baines then?
He's been working as your manager for a while now. Admittedly is mostly been dealing with the hordes of non-playing staff asking to leave.
Man United appoint Moyes | Round, Woods, Lumsden, P Neville in; Giggs player/coach; Albert stays

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) are here to talk about United's dreadful home defeat at the hands of Big Ange's Tottenham Hotspur. Should this have been the end of Ten Hag? How long does he actually have left? And does Nik finally want ETH out?!

I know that, but the comment about needing a result against Swansea was just daft.
there is that yes.
It's naive to think that nothing is in motion regarding our summer transfer activity, both ins and outs, since Moyes hasn't taken charge yet. I remember Sir Alex mention in a recent interview that we have been tracking some of our targets for more than a year. Moyes is not going to throw all that in a bin and demand different transfers.
I am pretty sure that behind the scenes work has continued since the season finished, may be even before that. Also, I don't believe that Moyes' has shut himself from the world during the holiday. He would have been in constant touch with Woodward and that Snake Oil guy. We already signed Varela, didn't we? I am guessing we'll see a flurry of activity with in the next week or so.
If Moyes is being presented on Monday, why is there (supposed to be) a press conference on Friday? Anyone know?
We usually have press conferences on Friday. Moyes officially starts work on Monday, so he probably wants the week to bed in and get some things sorted before facing the media.
Cheers, mate. 
I just wondered if he was presenting Varela to the press.

If the story's title is "Failure at signing a central midfield", then yes, it does continue.
Bite?
Bite?
Yeah if that Thiago tweet is true then the story does continue.
please be joking. And what tracksuit?
Have you watched him at Everton?
This tracksuti. How can you expect this guy to persuade the likes of Thiago to play for Manchester United?
makes shotgun loading noise
Would you sign for him?
Yes.
I was joking.
I really hope people dont make an issue of him wearing a tracksuit occasionally.
So long as he wears a suit to and from the ground, derbies and European nights I see absolutely no issue with him wearing a tracksuit now and then.

Is he back from his hols yet......hope so as he has to get cracking on his backroom staff, Rooney situation, players coming in and out so a lot to do in a relatively short space of time.
Good luck Moyes.
Good luck Moyes.
Just thinking, the guy must be absolutely shitting it
More likely the players are, I'd imagine,
He'll be having trouble sleeping tonight
He'll be right up for it.
I get why people are saying they'll be pressure, but less understanding of why people assume Moyes can't handle it, or that he'll be having sleepless nights. Everything suggests he's a hard bastard who can handle himself.

Not really, especially if he's having some good news to announce, the upcoming week plus Gill, Fergie, even Giggs been busy in preparing him for this job.
Pray for Rooney, though... No french fries for him after 7pm, next season.
He can handle himself sure but it's the start of something new.
Agreed, if anything, he's likely to be rearing to go.
That's him off then.
And? He clearly relishes a challenge and wants to be a top level manager. He's had over a month to get ready and I just think his attitude will be that he can't wait to start.
Oh my days, there isn't anything subliminal in my post. Everyone has trouble sleeping bbefore they're about to go tthrough something new.
It certainly would be that way if Jose took this job.
Fergie is still here and if Moyes wants to talk, the Godfather is in his office few floors up, propably working from 6am to very end of the day, as always.
It was definitely used a long time before the 80s. Here's a piece of club merchandise from a shop owned by Sir Matt:
Yeah, I was talking about Manchester in the 80s, okay perhaps I wasn't clear first time. I'm aware some players referred to us as Man Utd back then but Manchester based fans referred to us as United or The Reds.
I'm back in Manchester tomorrow
No I am not David Moyes
No I am not David Moyes
The players are on a holiday too..
He's now officially our manager. So it begins...
Did you wait up especially for that?
Breaking news that he's just been sacked. Lasted 5 minutes.
See? Moyes allowed ramos to miss that. The domination of spanish football is over because of Moyes and no one else.
Welcome to United, David Moyes.
