He got it wrong page. He clearly thought Moyes could do it. He can't.
Not the first mistake Ferguson has made.
Prediction time - we're going to get tonked at the Emirates on Wednesday, then Moyes gets sacked by the Glazers. Can only dream.
I see your point Ruff but considering the size of MUFC and Fergie's experience its not rocket science to have assumed that in Utd's best interests and to keep the stability that Fergie built that Moyes should have spent at least a season as his understudy.
Looking at it from the outside as a non Utd fan I can see the pure stupidity of Fergie being given the choice of successor and him not stipulating that the backroom staff and the training and tactics stay the same.
The similarities with hodgsons pathetic reign at anfield are there for all to see
Liverpool went one dimensional,lacking in tempo and little clubs went there unafraid anymore
It's just the same with gollom,mans a f**kwit
Hope he stays for the 6 years of his contact

Maybe true, but then given SAF only decided to retire in Jan last year there wasn't a huge amount of time. Besides which, doing well as an assistant to a great manager is no guarantee of ending up a great manager yourself. Just ask Shteve, Queiroz and now Rene.
One look at Chelsea over the past seven years shows you what a disaster that would be. A succession of managers through the revolving door with each one's mandate essentially being to be Mourinho, just more attacking and less annoying. Net result = spent masses of money, won one title, end up back with Mourinho.
I'm sure if we kept the same tactics and training then we'd have been more successful this season, but we'd just end up in a long slow decline like Chelsea. At least this way the cracks appear straight away and can be fixed, rather than papered over a little bit less each year.
