Moyes

Moyes

Utterly hilarious that people think a Scottish bloke who spent just over 15% of his managerial career with us would forego the money and fame because of some made up affinity.

Let’s be perfectly honest, we aren’t shopping at Waitrose for our next managerial appointment, we’re dipping in to the Aldi clearance bin.

Thought it was more Primark
 
Maybe Moyes would want to manage PNE again - but I find it hard to convince myself that his love of PNE would outweigh a zero being knocked off his weekly wage, having to swap working with the likes of Lucas Paqueta for the chance to manage Ryan Ledson, and dealing with the challenge of galvanising the club when it not only seems content, but rather intent to remain exactly where it is.

That last comment is precisely why any managerial change, let alone this kind of absolute blockbuster of an appointment, will not happen unless the results dictate it. We're already finishing up in the dizzying heights of 10th in the league, and things haven't gone too badly wrong yet, so no change needed - right?

You could start a thread suggesting any candidate as the new manager, but as things currently stand it seems it doesn't matter who they are because they would all have the same chance of replacing Ryan Lowe.

Zero.

Hey! You're saying that like it's a negative!

This guy probably gets paid twenty times what we can offer him, has managed in top divisions exclusively since leaving us in 2002 (La Liga and PL) and has won a European trophy.

But sure, he'll want to come work on shoestring budget, an enormous salary cut and going from Lucas Paqueta, Jarrod Bowen and James Ward-Prowse to Ryan Ledson and Layton Stewart.

Just get this notion out of your heads sooner rather than later.

Craig Brown didn’t have too bad a CV.
 
Had a nice little chat with him at a petrol station in Preston when he was at Everton. I asked him if he fancies coming back, to which he smiled and said basically the issue at Preston is money to spend (or lack of it). Think we can continue to rule him out!

I noticed this also.

Given the flak he get from a lot of West Ham fans I am not suprised.

He got a load of shit 1st time around, got binned off and went back to pull them out the shit when they were circling the toilet bowl.

From there turned them into a decent Premiership teams with three consecutive seasons of playing in European competitions and even winning one of them FFS.

I really hope that club do their usual and go to shit now he’s gone.

We take him for a couple of years, he gets us promoted, then goes back to West Ham to solve whatever mess they're in at that point.

I've seen a lot of West Ham fans basically saying that things have "run their course" as if he's hit a wall and can't take them any further. It's reflective of the impatience of fans these days. Moyes at Everton did have the odd crap season but the majority of the time he had them competing in and around the European spots. He has the ability to tactically evolve if given time. The fans speak about him as if it would've been exactly the same every season from now.

He did a great little interview with The Coaches Voice where he shows how Everton evolved tactically during his time there:
 
Anyone fancy a combo of the consortium rumours coming true, Moyesy as Director of Football (his family living locally must surely be an attraction), and a new manager, dunno who. Surely Lowe won't stay if the consortium thing runs.

Oh,I nodded off there for a moment
