    I don't know
    But this changing managers every year doesn't seem right
    Even though it has worked.
    We don't get the chance of the manager building his team
    Then given him time to get them to gel
    Then get a few season together and make something happen
    We all want instant success
    OR IN OUR CASE INSTANT STAY UP.

    But injuries don't stop him drilling the fit players to close down the opposition, to pass accurately, or to consider their positions and movement in relation to their team mates. Neither did injuries cause him to consistently pick Januzaj over Khazri, to not sign M'Vila, to give up on bringing in a striker long before the transfer window closed. Like I said before, injuries and lack of investment have hamstrung him but he's made plenty of mistakes of his own.

    I'm not disagreeing with you mate.

    I totally agree with your sentiments. 100%.

    But the goalposts keep changing slightly each year as do the dictat's imposed on the manager, with differing squads and cash resources changing each season.

    We keep comparing each manager with the last. Season upon season. That's a little unfair to say the least. But it goes with the job.

    I feel for Moyes. I really do. Short told the world that this was the guy he'd waited for for 5 years. Then he gave him just a relatively few quid to spend.

    Shorts gonna lose a **** load of money if we go do down.

    I for one won't lose any sleep over that.

    He's had so many opportunities to stop making the same ****ing mistake time after time after time!

    And here we are. Again.

    My frustration wasn't aimed at you Vince.

    Didn't meant it to look that way if it did.

    No offence at all - like I said an unexpected 3pts because we don't do the expected but we could also get blown out .
    If the later I really think Dour Daves days are numbered. Can see us getting 3pts as we seem to play better when we have space -not when we need to battle and have to break teams down.

    I'll put my neck out here and say Moyes isn't leaving unless he walks, I just can't see you plucking the best part of £10m out of thin-air to sack the man, when your club are so much in the red, especially given the fact that you've got a very thin/weak squad, that few if any managers will get any more out of than Moyes is.

    If Short was going to sack Moyes - he would have done it already.
    Moyes's record is only just better than big Dick's - our worst manager in recent history (based on win %)
    I can't see Moyes walking unless it gets a lot lot worse and is hounded out.

    They get paid too much to walk innit, who was the last manager to walk in this league? Advocaat perhaps, but I'm struggling to think of others.

    Is that Eddie Howe who's Bournemouth side have lost 4 on the bounce and conceded 12 goals?

    I've got them going down.

    The team's having a dip at the minute. They all do.

    I just think he's a good young manager who had his team playing some good attacking football.

    His defence have definitely gone awol at the moment though.

    The jury is still out for me. After what happened at Burnley he may turn out to be an Alan Curbishley where it only works for him at one club

    You might not be wrong about that Parker.

    But he's had a good run and personally I'd like to see a young up and coming hungry manager at my club.

    I've no idea who the Huddersfield manager is at the minute but well done that man!

    He's making a very old fashioned club very attractive at the minute!

    And he's made me a few quid the last few weeks which is why I like guy even more!

    Aye he's doing a cracking job.

    Could be way off here but I think he's worked with Klopp before, so probably has similar styles.

    If there is a God, and he looks down on Mackems with spiritual favour, while having omnipotent hatred of anything black and white, then Brighton will score for fun tomorrow night while key magpie players get straight reds.

    Wagner. Klopps former number 2. Turned the Wolfsburg job down a couple a month back so I'm not sure we'd tempt him here.

    Unless Huddersfield fail to win promotion and he's promised a massive budget compared to what they can offer
