David Moyes blasts Premier League fixture list, saying: 'This is Manchester United's hardest start for 20 years' David Moyes has questioned the Premier League fixture-list which has given Manchester United a start including away games at Swansea, Liverpool and Manchester City as well as a home match with Chelsea. woke up this morning to this ..got to laugh at the bloke ..5 mintues into his new job and he thinks the worlds against him ...and questioning the fa ..makes me sick .. what a shame they got a few tough games ... make up for the home draws they get every season in f a cups ... going to be a huge whinge this guy I recon ..
Classic title chasing tactics really. Remember mourinho and fergie doing it, creates an 'us against them' ethos. Be surprised if he thinks complaining to the prem is actually gonna change anything
It is in no way completely random check this out, good read. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/paulfletcher/2009/06/secrets_of_the_fixture_compute.html
Basically all he's saying is what everybody else has been saying for the past 20 years that Man U always have an easy start. Now that SAF's gone, someone has had the b**** to make it a bit harder for them. What a shame, perhaps Moyes has'nt got the Fergie fear factor feel about him.....
lol I think its a manure thing , try and scare tactics , question etc when things don't go there way .. think moyes will find oot is hes good enough at this level this season , much different than no pressure everton job.. cl etc to lock horns with good euro teams teams and managers ..be interesting . just waiting now for the pop at how wealthy man city are ..lol
It's probably a rule in the guidebook Fergie left on the desk for Moyes, advising him to whine at every opportunity about how hard manure have it Pointless argument really as they have to play every team at some point (even I know that ). Besides does anyone hear Pards whining that we've got a tough start because we're away at Man City? Chin up Moyes, it's not that bad (yet ).
David Moyes is a silly little man. It makes no difference when you play people - I suppose he's failed to mention their easy run-in? <fergietrick>
You gotta play all teams twice in a season. You could argue that its a good thing they have a hard start. Get the results and your laughing. Its all bullshit. Look at Chelseas easy start for Mourinho, you telling me that the special hwan factor didnt have a bearing on this. Of course the premier league want him to have a good start because its box office. OFC the premier league would want MANU to have a **** start because of the Moyes wimp factor. Its all box office. BUT: AT the end of the day every team plays every team twice so come the end of the season there are no excuses. Capish!
It's definitely not random. Why do we always play a manc clubs when the mackems do, and it's the same with the scouse clubs. If we're playing Everton, they're playing Liveprool. If they're home at United, we're away at City. The fixture list it made to avoid fan bases clashing. Imagine having two big games on the same day in Newcastle AND Sunderland? Holy **** the North East would be raped.
Notice he wasn't saying anything about the 5 fixtures following his hard start. All against teams who finished below half way in the league.
I can't believe he's not being sanctioned by the FA for his comments. He's basically calling them cheats!
