Still have confidence in Cathro, hamster? :ph43r:
Only a matter of time before the Laptop Murderer Cathro gets the sack.

You'd think that Moyes would be able to handle the pressure of a relegation battle given that he was predicting they'd be in one in September.

But, aye, threatening female journalists for asking questions suggests he's not.

The man's an idiot.
To be fair to Moyes I think he was just saying she'd get a slap like a male journo would when he's not happy with them.

Moyes' career seems to have imploded since leaving Everton. Shame really.

Is Moyes trying to get the sack ? First comments about needing "Britishness" from his players, now threatening to slap female reporters. Shudder to think what he will come out with next...seems determined to alienate everyone.
Everyone except the majority of people in England judging on current affairs...

:thumbsup: I hope he does well. I've still got a lot of time for Ronny and i think he still has a lot of time for us. He led us to 33% of our 6 in a row. :worthy:

I would have taken agree. The Man Utd experience seems to have had a profoundly negative impact on him. I think he's pretty much close to being finished as a manager at a high level.

Moyes would have folded up here under any pressure.

Doesn't have the considered nature or intelligence of Rodgers. Nor does he have the tactical awareness of coaching ability of Brendan either.

All true. He would also have signed Everton old boys, not had the wit to look at Moussa or Sinclair and been feart in every game v Aberdeen, Hearts and sevco. Clueless. His time has well and truly gone.

I wanted Moyes in because I thought the side needed some more pragmatism especially after the European debacles under Ronny but we truly have dodged a bullet.

Especially when you see the side in full flow now.

That was it for me as well. I also thought Rodgers would be more expensive, and didnt see the board pushing the boat out that far.

I would have been happy with Moyes in the summer as well.

Looking back, wow, he would have been a slow-burning Mowbray mk2, and I don't think there is a hope we would have seen the level of progression in some players as we are currently witnessing. We would be solid and unspectacular and eventually the press would get a rise and it would be game over.

Moyes was never my first choice, but as the time rolled on I warmed slightly to the idea for the same reason. We were simply too easy to beat under Ronny, and I thought Moyes would at least change that.

I never expected us to get Rodgers, so my first choice was always some other manager who'd get us playing football that we might actually enjoy watching. Pretty sure I picked some hipster choice with about 4 other votes in the KDS poll :lol:

At the time I would have taken either. I wanted Rodgers because of the way his team plays. I get that people found him a bit Brent-esque but he looks to have completely capped that though.

CL qualification, League won without a defeat, 2/3 trophies already set. League won by April 2nd. Attacking football, relatively decent defensively. Improving players we thought were lost, bringing in players of quality. Dreamy press conferences and timely substitutions . It's been a dream 8 months.
