Security guards at United training ground say Moyes arrived at 05:00 BST - BBC Sport

Early start!!!!

Early start, early finish!

I wouldn't feel too sorry for him, he knew the risks and his compensation will be enormous

[Malandro]

I feel sorry for Moyes, having that cock looking over his shoulder all season.

[olaftab]

we appoint Moyes , we'd finish top 8 no danger, who wouldn't want that at the moment ?

Yes that would be great...finish 7th or 8th for the next 10 years and never win anything!

Well that's now two Scottish managers that Ferguson recommended who failed to last a season...

McLeish did last a season.

[cdbearsfan]

Seems harsh to get rid of him so quickly. Have they already forgotten the Community Shield glory days? Well, day. Plus he invented the Flaming Mo.

Looking forward to BeijingRed4Lyf changing his address to GiggsMustGo.

Dour manager sacked for unacceptable league position, awful results and boring hoof style. Unfortunately not Paul Lambert.

[olaftab]

Its all starting to look like a repeat of the Frank O'Farrell /Wilf McGuinness  situation again.

I hope so. I hope they appointment Giggs as caretaker and he wins the next 3 games and then is appointed on a permanent basis and sacked this time next year.

Not as enormous as you might think, if the "failure to qualify for Champions League" clause is true.

It looks like Moyes might only get one year's pay-off. This'll still be a decent wedge but nothing compared to what he'd have got if he'd scraped them into the CL and then got fired.

Can a Mod extract the "?" from the thread title.

Difference is targets assigned by owners. Moyse relegated manu from CL Lambert has not relegated us from PL so he stays.

McLeish did last a season.

So he did! Although those last few games did little to justify Ferguson's alleged glowing reference...

The Sacked One

[Brian Taylor]

Success and money is what all about. The humour has gone. Where are the 'characters' these days?..hiding from the accountants counting the number of season tickets/T-shirts sold. Moyes would be OK with me as a long term builder. He was watching Villa last week when I thought he may be checking on Vlaar and Bacuna..never know now?

[olaftab]

Everton have had the best years from Moyes.  He was a young and hungry new manager, able to mould a team that suited his style and that could mitigate his tactical limitations.

As much as I would have been pleased with his appointment after MON or Houllier, he unfortunately has the air of someone passed their prime and something of a spent force. I can't help but pity the bloke for having been given the shitty end of the stick, but that just makes it even harder to imagine him being the one to reinvigorate us now.

Only twelve months ago, David Moyes was considered good enough to replace one of the most successful managers in the history of football at one of the biggest clubs in the world. Has he really turned into a pile of shite overnight?

Yes considered good enough by only one man, a despot, who wanted his united to carry on through Moyse. Football isn't like that.
