Silent night..
Holy night...
All is calm...
Moyes is shite ;)
Silent night
Playing like shite
Can't buy players, Glazers too tight
There goes Rooney, off to Madrid
What a bargain 6 million quid
All the supporters have gone
All the supporters have gone :p
Sorry to say Iain but Danbert does have a point.Quote:

Why? We've lost the greatest manager of all time.. Ok things are great but we'll give Moyes time. I think we'll do OK.. 4th will do this year. I won't judge Moyes until it is his team.Quote:

The fact is we have 20 league titles.. 12 of which (I think).. or was it 13? came under Fergie..
I met a scouser last year who reckoned the worst thing ever to happen to Man U was Fergie.. that he saddled them with debt after his row with the horse owners... its laughable..

I expected the ABU nation and the likes of Danbert on here to latch on with glee at any opportunity to prematurely stick the boot in at the earliest sign of problems, but our own support know better.
We've spent the last couple of decades (rightfully) scoffing and sneering at other clubs' distasteful penchant for sacking their managers at the first hurdle, and the last few years (rightfully) mocking the overnight lottery 'successes' of the plastic clubs. So at the first sign of trouble, we must not turn into everything that we've historically stood against.
Nobody expected a seamless transition, and I accept that things have gone even worse than we'd originally envisaged, but we are United, we will not react to it by turning into whiney little spoilt brats. There's work to be done, and with a bit of time and support we may reap some serious benefits, just like we did with Ferguson.
Moyes is learning the ropes at this level; all this talk of tactics and playing styles at Everton is meaningless, as he will have to adapt himself to the requirements of Manchester United, and that will naturally come with some teething problems. However, if he adapts successfully, which will take time, then it will all be worth it. He may well crash and burn, but I'd rather give him a fair shot. Let's see what he does in January, and see where we end up in May - then we can make a fair judgement call.
What tickles me is this constant reference to this mystifying 'Transitional period.'
What you really mean is, the new manager of the same team that coasted the league last season, is losing games hand over fist and is really a bit shit.
Cue more 'Gelling time' and 'Bedding in' quotes in a frantic attempt to calm twitching arses.
Martinez is going through a similar 'Transitional period.' It doesn't seem to be affecting him too much
Transition...?

I agree.. but he was turned by his agent.. Ravel as well.. but he was a bad egg and sometimes you just have to get rid.. class player who they protected and kept out of prison but you cant risk his influence.Quote:

Danbert.. yeah Martinez has done well... similar to how Moyes did.. yet you reckon he's terrible..
We have class... we dont sack after 15 games... we're not a City who expect to win the league season in season out and sack the manager for merely finishing second.. a disgusting club.
Still only 8 points between Utd and 2nd place in the table. Only Arsenal are really getting comfortably clear of them.
I see, this great team are now playing for second but are 3 wins away.Quote:

Mine is 1996 when we got well shafted 7-0 by Liverpool at Anfield.
My abiding memories were the local Liverpool kids offering to "protect my car" while I was at the match for a small remuneration :rolleyes:
Stan Collymore kicking a football - he had a hell of a kick!
Ian Rush breaking Denis Law's record of FA Cup goals.
The Kop singing "Always look on the bright side of life" when we were 7-0 down :D

Great performance by Everton and that final Arsenal shot by Giroud against the bar which would have been a cracker if it had gone in would not have been a fair result. The only way you can beat Everton is through football skill and there aren't many teams in that league at the moment that can do that :cool:
Oh dear Alf, you may have a full house but they have more dick heads than Morecambe.
I do hope its a good game.
Showing my age, my first 3rd round memory is a bit earlier than that. In 1963 Morecambe then in the old Lancashire Combination got through to the 3rd round, great excitement when the draw camer round only to draw Weymouth at home and lose 1-0. It was another 38 years before we got to the 3rd round again and drew Ipswich, then 3rd in the Premier League, at home and went down 3-0.Quote:

Only one, as I am sure Danbert will point out!:DQuote:

i was born 5 minutes from Anfield and used to mind cars.We had regulars and some of the kids use to wash the cars it was a nice little earner for us kids. I have been a season ticket holder for 30 years. I been enjoying this thread so keep it up Danbert and Iain. Moyes will be Lucky to last the year already losing the players Rio not happy RVP ? Felleni a panic buy who more interested in playing with his phone than watching the game. There will be more panic buys in the new year if they can attract top top top players. 8 points off second place how many off the bottom! Won't finish in the top 4 and will struggle to get in the Europa league.
Flitcroft not out of work for long, he is in charge at Bury nowQuote:
