    I think they should wait until after the final, if we don't win then he could be on his way!<whistle>

    Hm well the article says he's on a one-year rolling contract, which he's not as far as I know, so taking much more from that article is a bit hard.

    Apparently he is in the last year of his original 3 year deal & will then go automatically onto the 1 year rolling contract unless City decide to offer him something better, which apparently they have.

    Hm ok, not sure why we'd put him on a rolling contract, as that always reeks of clubs with short term vision.

    I'd want to see him on a three or four year deal.

    A new 3-year contract for the best Manager we've ever had should be the Allam's #1 priority. I hate to think what could happen to the brilliant team spirit he's created if he moves on.

    He was on a 3 year contract, the rolling was sensible to allow both sides to make a decision at the appropriate time.

    Short term vision in football management? I'm sure Moyes isn't all that impressed with the 6 year one he was given.

    This is and was the right approach, he's also in a position to negotiate, if he wants, a much better renewal for another period of time he is happy with.

    It's a complete non story, someone has read the HDM interview and made up this cack.

    Not to say that he won't get offered one, I think it's pretty obvious he will (unless we don't win the cup) which makes that article even ****tier.

    What a ****ty bunch of ****s writing **** the mirror are.

    The Allam's will be aware that we're not due much compo if he's only on a one year rolling deal and if he continues to do well with us, it's only a matter of time before other clubs come in for him. A new longer term deal is simply common sense and I'm sure it's being discussed.
