Dai at that time Utd weren't what they are today in terms of stature and finances, so Fergie never had a shares issue or other non football issues to contend with(apart from the drink culture), you're over simplifying Moyes's position.
Anything outside what the players and the manager does on the pitch is irrelevant kopite, I'm pointing out that fergie did not exactly set the world alight in his first half of his first season either and look what happened to him...Fergie chose Moyes because he knows he is the best man for the job and it will take time for him to get it right, There is no instant fixes in football and Moyes is no super manager either but he needs more than half a season until he gets where he is aiming to be that's for sure. Moyes will be there for the long haul and will go nowhere as apart from silly fans calling for his head the people who run man utd knows that considering fergie's retirement that moyes is doing well for only half a season...


. Utd's results should now start improving as he is not watching any more.
