Fed up
Comments (10)
Hi, just a few things that make me groan:
Fed up of not taking chances to beat Liverpool at Anfield.
Fed up of Phil Neville saying this is the year to end Anfield misery.
Fed up of substitutions coming too late.
Fed up of substitutions being like for like, ineffective player for ineffective player.
Fed up of Moyes not saying what needs to be said (we were shite).
Fed up of the ease at which teams seem to be able to score against us in the first ten minutes of each half.
And most of all, fed up of reds being able to give me a hard time when people who I pay good money to go and see give piss poor performances.
ps: Jamie Redknapp can fuck off as well.

The big problem with the team last week was the total lack of creatability. Then what really galls me is seeing Rooney scoring and creating week-in and week-out... our total lack of ambition apart from just being able to stay in the Premier Lleague is what has cost us dearly.
Good, promising players want to win things and let's face it, not with us. Let's hope that Arteta re-captures his best form and supplies our front men with some decent ammunition.
But what I am really fed up with is Osman and Neville getting in the team ahead of Coleman and Bily, it just should not happen.
On Saturday, we play at Anfield and they get reduced to ten men when Kyrigakos gets sent off. What does Moyes do to try and take advantage? Carries on with the same system, same shape, same tactics. What happens? Liverpool win.
The thing I’m most fed up with is the fact Moyes never fucking learns from his mistakes.
Gerrard dives into Pienaar feet first. Steve Banyard (or some similar fool) “You know, players don’t help themselves, or the ref, by rolling round like that.”
Any tackle by an Everton player resulted in both commentators morphing into Frank Doberman “Oi Pienaar NO!”
Okay, I know we weren’t angels on the park but Sky’s blatant bias towards Sky4 and the Shite made me sick. I rewatched the match to try and take some positives out of it – there were none – but the overriding bias towards the Shite started to make me angry.
It aint the first time, either. I well remember Davie Provan castigating Phil Neville for his “two footed lunge” on Cristiano Ronaldo in the Manure game last season.
Even Barry Horne isn’t guilt free in this department.
I know its not going to change but I just needed to have a rant.
2. Moyes’s lack of ideas to out-think a rival coach in a game, not just Saturday, but any game... can you think when Moyes has ever made a "match-winning change" No? I can’t either.
When Benitez brought Didi Hamann on at half-time in the Champions League Final in 2005 and completely changed the flow of the game, could you ever imagine Moyes doing that? Moyes would most probably bring on an extra defender, despite being 3-0 down, or wait until 70-80 minutes and throw on two forwards who are no better than the ones on show.
3. I could go on and on about Moyes’s lack of imagination, his lack of ability to out-think other managers and change a situation in our favour, but I’m sure you all know that anyway.
4. Last but not least, Phil Neville. When will he just fucking go into a match and play football, instead of giving us a taste of his cringe worthy, patronising journalism shit in the paper before a game??
We don’t want to hear it, you cunt. We want you to go out and play football for 90 minutes, not pre-forecast things that me and you both know aren’t going to happen, for fuck's sake!

I am fed up of seeing Neville playing and not Coleman.
I am fed up with Moyes and his hoofball tactics.
I am fed up with the useless Donovan.
It's all crap at the moment, and I cannot see it getting any better.
