Just to have someone again who the fans can have a bit of faith in would be great. This would show me that this new board are serious about bouncing back quickly. I like Remi but nothing shows me that he's got what it takes. If he were to come back when we have stabilised then he might do ok but it's broken now and needs fixing.  Moyes can be tough, his team's can mix it up too. He built something good at Everton that I'd like him to replicate here. TSM 3? Yes please.

This might sound a little nuts but if getting relegated allows us the breathing room and ability to completely restructure ourselves and get a good proven manager, then it might be better than remaining wallowing in the depths of the PL. Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom to make the change, and maybe Randy is realizing that now. Had he done so 5 years ago none of this would have happened, but perhaps this it was all part of his journey to redemption.

Another vote for Moyes - he's been my preferred manager since before Remi...  I read that we approached him before but that we ruled him out because he didn't fit into the structure - in other words, the discredited system put in place by Fox.  Hopefully, now that we have some football brains on the board they will realise that the most important person at a football club is the manager.  He should be the one around whom all the other pieces fit.

Toronto, I used to think that relegation under any circumstances would be a disaster but I am coming around to the fact that we now seem to have people at the club who know how to do the job properly, so, if it means we lose our premiership place now, only to put better, achievable plans into place for improvement, then, reluctantly, I am for it. However, I don't see us building with Remi at the helm. Complete change, then give it chance to embed. The right Manager is so important.

Surely this is the no brainer of no brainers. If Moyes wants it, get him in, do it quick, give the press something positive to write for us for once and then crack on with rebuilding us.

Would be delighted if this was true and the club could get it sorted. Get him in soon to assess the chancers from the guys committed to the club.

I'm hoping it's true.

Can't think of many managerial options in the PL. even when you look at the bottom half of the table.

If Newcastle drop and Rafa goes,he may consider there I suppose. Palace may be an option if they stay up ,as Pardews record has been shocking since January .


Get it done now and let's try and build some momentum. It would lift the fans and instill some belief.

If this is true, then he would probably be the best choice if they decide to part with Remi.

I believe David Moyes is starting to think I need the work and better do something about it.I know for certain he was approached after Houllier left but turned down the initial enquiry due to the financial restrictions he would have to deal with.I cannot see how that has changed but who knows? I think most of us would be happy if he was appointed.We shall see.

The only thing I would suggest is not to get too over excited about this. The writer of the story Darren Lewis tends not to know his arse from his elbow.

 If Moyes is to come it has to be clean and quick.  He has prick teased us in the past.  He better not be doing it again.

If he is interested, then let's get him in.  I'd like to think that this has been in the planning for some time so that he's already started to look st us and what we need.  He'd rebuild the playing side from bottom to top and set us up for the future.  Do it Villa.

That would be my one concern as well
