Not Baines and Fellaini...
Obviously making that post in jest
But hopefully it happens.
Anyway, I was serious bout Baines though. I read about his illness, something like Jesus Navas.
I think a quote was taken and blown wildly out of proportion.
good time for him to go. with wenger getting all this money he's going to build a super squad and he was going to rub it in fungies face next season. i kid i kid.
goes out on top though, good on the ole drunk.
Not sure if Moyes can do what he does at a big club. He's good at finding value for money, but he has no experience with attaining CL-level quality.
Twitter went a bit mental last night with all this so definitely seemed like something was happening. He has always talked staying as long as his health held up but with him needing a hip operation it would of been too much at his age. He has earned his retirement! Really weird for me as well, since I started watching football he has been their manager so going to be really weird seeing someone else take charge
Credit to the guy though, what has achieved and the way he has built that club up is something which we will possibly never see again. A lot of other managers have tried to topple him but everyone has failed, I reckon he might of gone last season had Man City not won the league but with his character he wasn't going to leave on a low note or talk of his empire crumbling! Can't say I liked the guy but always had a lot of respect for what he has achieved.

I certainly hope so, got him at 11/8 this morning. 8)
Have nothing good to say about the guy. Good fucking riddance. I just hope this is final so I never have to hear his stupid slurred Scottish accent again....or see the old cheat point at his watch in injury time and then watch the ref bend over and give him whatever he wants.
Good. Fucking. Riddance.
^^ What Ricky said. Fuck the old prick, I've hated him for decades.
Funnily enough I don't hate Fergie at all now he's gone.
Moyes will have to fill that vacuum.
I reckon he'll be well equipped for that.

Fuck me, ferguson's face really is a deep shade of red.
In both pics too. You can see it even when he's out of focus.

One area where United will fall down is scrutiny, Ferguson controlled the media with an iron grip and they were terrified of him, I don't think Moyes inspires the same fear and if he doesn't win something soon they'll tear him to shreads.
And referees.
Yeah.

Q.F.T.
Never liked the guy. Never will.
Do not have any respect for him despite all his achievements.
Those hating for a massive opportunity will be disappointed. Football's all about money and Moyes will have an even bigger budget than Ferguson.
As for Ferguson: a winner but highly unlikable. Good riddance.
Finally, where can I put down a bet for Everton to be relegated within 2 seasons?
Great day. As much as we hate him, he's a fantastic coach. This cannot be good for united. And for all of city-chelsea money, it's united who ruled the league.
Moyes? OK. Good thing it's not Mourinho. Let him go to the wacko house, till next time he loses it with Abramovich.
