mnelson Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Let me say that David Moyes has been sensational for the toffees and he clearly got the best out of our players but i don't see the point in allowing him to see out the season as manager now that he has decided to leave. I also hope he doesn't take any of our players with him to united because if he does then that would be a disgrace and all repsect for him would be lost.

Mirallas Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Did that post need a new topic? Welcome to Toffeetalk, but you might want to consider that if you can type something in an existing topic, then you should try and do that as much as possible.

EFC-Paul Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 I think we have no choice really as i think the board have been naive and complacent in thinking Moyes would sign a new deal and have been caught with their pants down... I don't think many would like to see Him just walk out and stick Round in for the last two games it would leave a very ill feeling and massively taint Moyes's reputation and time here. The man's done a great job and every credit for getting to where He is now and I feel a good reception tomorrow from everyone at the old lady is the least he deserves imo.

Avinalaff Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Welcome Mnelson. After 11 years of service to our club, it is fitting that he sees the season out and is able to receive a warm send off from the fans. It's not like he hasn't given us his all, as he has clearly done that and then some. barryj and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 I can see why some people aren't keen on him seeing the season out with us but I'm glad he's doing it. However, for a strange reason! Imagine if the caretaker (Stubbs, Weir or Round etc) won the final two games? The board would probably hire them and that would be a disaster!

Fearthainn Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) He should obviously be given a proper send off from our fans on Sunday, but I agree he shouldn't be sitting on the bench any more. If he was moving abroad I would probably have no issues with it, but he's moving to another team in our league - and not to any team, but to Manchester United who are supposed to be rivals despite our recent dealings with them, and their success. I mean Moyes is already talking as the Manchester United manager. It will just makes us look small time really. The atmosphere should be quite interesting tomorrow anyway, not sure what to expect.

Sideliner Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Mr Moyes wants to ride two horses at the same tame - he wants to wear two hats at the same time - and he wants his bread buttered on both sides - in my book that is taking it a bit far - his home is where his heart is - and that is no longer at Everton - so please Mr Moyes just leave our hand - we are old enough to stand on our own feet and face the football world - some of us do not like being paraded like the Man United feeder club or door mat - do the honourable thing and step down and accept your applause from anywhere but the dug out please !

I don't know whether you do it to wind folk up, but I always find your posts unnecessarily hard on Moyes. Also, not wanting to cause offense, but why the line between every comment?

Dalziel Kane Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Let me say that David Moyes has been sensational for the toffees and he clearly got the best out of our players but i don't see the point in allowing him to see out the season as manager now that he has decided to leave. I also hope he doesn't take any of our players with him to united because if he does then that would be a disgrace and all repsect for him would be lost. As it was mentioned, this wasn't necessary for a new starter, but what do you suggest on this. Kick Moyes out now, as some would see him as a rival manager now in charge of team affairs and just bring in the first interim name that arises and let them take charge of the last two fixtures. Say again, the timing of all that has occured is questionable, but there's no sense in berating Moyes now with games left in change as team manager here. Just let him see out his last few weeks here, despite his moving on and decisions made. Guessing one or two names may indeed go along the M62 this close season between clubs, but a disgrace, and all respect lost ? Damn garbage. Will always be grateful for moving the club forward after the shit tenure of Walter Smith, but will always insist he simply won't cut it at MUFC,but wish him well in whatever occurs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Moyes deserves a decent send off because he's been good for us and is leaving us for arguably the biggest job in football. If he was leaving us for any team then it's different but he's not, it's the most supported team in the world. Moyes has shown his loyalty by turning down (or not forcing) many opportunities in the past. ManU and the chance to replace SAF is the one job I don't think any manager (bar Guardiola) would turn down.

Dalziel Kane Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Moyes taking over from Alex Ferguson at Manchester United is not too disimilar from George Lazenby taking over from Sean Connery as James Bond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barryj Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 I think he deserves a very warm send off. Eleven years in today's football climate is a great effort. You have to take into account the poor finances he had available and he has left us in a much better position. If it was more than 2 games then I'd agree that he should step aside but our position of 6th is almost confirmed regardless of the next two results. I for one will be giving him the accolade he deserves tomorrow. Thanks Mr Moyes and for me I hope Martinez is his replacement. efc1111 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c1982 Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 An excellent send off - deserved too. Thankfully the boo boys are a minority and didn't sour the occasion. Steve_E, Fearthainn and Matt 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fearthainn Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 I was afraid it might make us look small time today but it was in fact the complete opposite, I'm glad to admit I was wrong. Moyes couldn't have been more professional, the team reminded us all that there is a lot to look forward too with the quality we have in the squad, and what a brilliant atmosphere. Everything was absolute class - that's just how Everton do things. Proud to be an Evertonian! Sibdane, Bailey and efc1111 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
