Interesting to see that people who spent most of last season denying Dibling could ever be a Moyes signing, now giving him the credit for it. Lets hope the boy can keep this up. I don't think I could stomach another U-turn
Moyes's treatment of this boy has been disgusting. Publicly humiliating him when he could see how he was suffering demonstrated what a cowardly bully he is. Especially when he didnt dare criticise Tarkowski and the rest when they was stinking the place out every week.

What we are seeing from George, Rohl and Dibling now, is the sort of quality that was available to Moyes as he sat by with a gormless look on his face watching our season come apart at the seams because he had half a team running on empty. – “Yeah but we may not have won any of our last seven games if we put our trust in youth and vitality Sigh.

I love that Moyes is given credit for signing Coleman, Baines and Stones without a single mention of any of the staff who had to twist the dithering bastards arm up his back to get their signings over the line.
I love that he is credited for giving exceptional young talents like Barkley and Osman their debuts – without mentioning him sending them out to learn their trade elswhere, because he didnt know what to do with them. – despite having a wafer-thin squad.

There is no agenda against Moyes, Just a demonstration that even the master of expectation management cannot fool all of the people all of the time. His overly cautious approach to everything will never be acceptable to football fans. Thats why he gets ran out of town everywhere he goes.

Credit where it's due though. He did give a sixteen year old Rooney his debut It may have been after months of the fans who already knew (even then) that he was a once-in-a-generation player screaming for him. but nobody can deny. It was Davey Boy. who…Discovered him.

I wonder where Rooney would have been now if it wasnt for the blindingly inciteful Davey Moyes

On this conservative accusation, one observation against Ipswich demonstrates the opposite.

The goal that won the game was created by having all outfield players in opposing half. With only Branthwaite holding back in the centre circle. Both full backs in attacking positions and Tarks on the edge of the area. That was how Moyes sent them out to play.

As said before 21 Shots, lions share of possession and double the XG of the opposition.

Please talk facts not repeated false slurs against our club.

I see the usual suspects have pulled players out, leaving others to fill the insignificant game gaps.
Garner is still working back to full fitness; let’s hope he doesn’t break down, eh.

I can’t replicate that, Eric. All the home page stories I clicked on went straight through.

Excellent post, well balanced. Though I don’t think the owners sat on their hands. Balo walking out has been a massive impact on CEO, owners and recruitment team. However it was a progressive window. The quality of the core 15 to 17 players has gone up. The holes which you point out Ian are spot on. We also cleared the decks of dead wood.

“The most negative manager we’ve had”

Really? Dyche, FSW and the rest of the managers we had to endure?

As for his favourites and non favourites, nonsense? Please name them?
