Manager for next season

[TonyD]

Moyes would suck the last life out off the club. 

I don't see why someone who is know for being meticulous, having high standards and making some decent transfers over the years would warrant such a statement.

We need a spark. Not a squib.

Strange that the Mirror article does not mention Moyes at all, yet the Mail article pinpoints him as the one we want.

If there is a chance of Moyes, he has to be got. Looking at the record of Pearson and Moyes, considering they are the same age, there is no comparison. His coaching team would be available, but it all comes down to whether Randy is willing to back him to get out of the Championship quickly.

He would though, very obviously, be the only one that would unite the vast majority of the fan base.

Mirror are running that it's all on hold until Randy confirms next season's budget. Surely that's total rubbish? Hollis and King will know by now what the budget is going to be next season I am very very sure. And will have had an indication from Lerner what he will put in. I am filling that one under filler.

Mail on Sunday are running that it is Moyes we want and will hold out for.

Honestly I don't think I'd believe a word out of Moxley's mouth or anything he wrote even if he was saying Aston Villa play in claret and blue in the city of Birmingham. I don't know what he's got right in such a long time. And you know who their sister shit rag is too.

Moyes.   Yawn.  Not the man to inspire or get us up.

Honestly I find this attitude bizarre. If we got Moyes, having just been relegated, it would be a big statement.

Like pissing down your leg, it gives you a nice warm feeling..

See I genuinely don't understand the view, that having been relegated, that Moyes is beneath us. I think probably at least three quarters of the teams in the top flight would be happy with him.

Fifteen teams in the PL would be happy with him? If that were true, we're not worthy. My main problem with Moyes, apart from his rather dull approach to football, is we'd be stuck with him for years. He'd get the same type of worship that was bestowed on MON, spending a fortune and giving little back in terms of entertainment. Then we'd have the old 'stability' lines coming out every time somebody dare question his judgement whilst he bores the living shit out of us season after season.

Hiring Moyes would be a huge statement of intent. Even if you don't rate him, he would be by far the most high profile boss in the division, and also a sign that we have given him assurances which match his ambition.

Just cannot see Moyes coming in and shaking things up.   Paint drying.

I'm torn really. Moyes could offer stability and perhaps something longer term.

Ha! See, it's already started.

If we were 'stuck with him for years', wouldn't that probably be because he was being relatively successful? Which seems to be a rather strange reason for not wanting someone as manager.

But stats prove he is not as dull as MON was for example at times, despite a lot, lot less money? He might was a fortune, and if he does, I doubt he would get the job. 5-6 years of stability in the premier league seems a long way off tonight.

I've said this before but I'd be perfectly happy with boring 6th/7th place finishes right now. And especially at this very moment.

It's not the same though is it? We're in a completely different place now. After 6 years of relegation scraps, which finally culminated in the drop, show me anyone honestly who wouldn't take in four years time finishing 9th in the Premier League. If you honestly think our ambitions should outstrip that at the moment I think you're looking way beyond what we're capable of. A few years of stability following promotion under Moyes could be exactly what we need.

When did we ever watch Everton over the last 10 years and think wow progressive winning football, please give us their manager.  Dull and regressive shite.  But hey give the man the red carpet.  We need such a different type of manager. The Moyes love in really baffles me.

They beat us very convincingly at home a couple of years back, think it was quite early in the season, they looked very good then.

I totally agree.
The term 'industrial football' was invented for Moyes.
I hope the club can be progressive with the next appointment, but I have no idea who it should be.

My point was directed to all those who are suggesting Moyes would be boring as opposed to making a very obvious point.
