On his first day Nige will gather everybody round and announce we are going to watch a film. A film starring Sean Connery. Great, say the lads we like James Bond films Then they find out its.... "The Hill!"

We have enough people at the club not dedicated to the cause. Our manager needs to be 100% committed.

Moyes has had a few shots at coming here and he's turned them all down. Fuck him.

For me this comes back to the fact that he's failed in his last 2 jobs.  I don't think he has the stomach, right now, for a big job, he just wants something that will allow him to easily rebuild his reputation without much work on building the squad.

Is pretty much word for word what i've just said to my mate

It makes you wonder what caused David Moyes to lose interest so dramatically. After all he does know Wyness well. Perhaps he is privy to inside information that we are not.

Right well onwards and upwards, we need someone in pretty quickly to sort this rabble out.

Yep, pretty much. This was his chance to come in with a clean slate and sort everything out top to bottom, if he's not up for it now then he's never going to be our manager.

Moyes obviously knew full well when interviewed that the club was in the Championship, so uncertainty over future ownership might answer to why he turned it down? I guess the last thing he wanted was to have ended up working for Randy with no budget - that would have been a challenge too far.

Or maybe he just doesn't want to be in the Championship at this stage of his career. Whatever we think it is a step backwards for him.

Just a thought. I wonder if he's ruled himself out to save face knowing that we've appointed someone else instead? Dr Tony did hint that it was more or less done. Being overlooked by a relegated club wouldn't look too good for him. I may be wrong though.
i think your right

Moyes is the best mix of a pragmatic organiser that can get us out of the Championship (think Bruce / Warnock types) and has also flirted with the Champions League.  I think we'd struggle to find another candidate with a similar CV, let alone convince them to interview for the job.

Di Matteo has been actually promoted from the Championship and won the Champions League. His CV pisses all over Moyes'
yeah matteo won champions league with someone elses team , just as rannieri won the prem with nigels
