End of One Era
 

So the Man is going - in charge for 1500 games - a number of great teams built and then dismantled for yet another great team to be produced.:)
The most successful football manager of all time - don't forget his acheivements in Scottish football.;)
Who next? guess away - I predicted SAF would go, perhaps it is going to be Mourinho (accompanied by Ronaldo), or perhaps Moyes. There may be a surprise yet to come.:D

Re: End of One Era
 

Kenny Dalglish :D

That'd please the Mankies no end.

Re: End of One Era
 

All is not doom and gloom from Old Trafford though;;)

Manchester United have successfully renegotiated their contract with referee Howard Webb for next season.
Sir Alex Ferguson has said, "He's on a no win, no fee basis."

Who cares?? apart from Plastics, Thousands retire every week, no big deal unless yer full of yerself.:rolleyes:

Re: End of One Era
 

The little green men are here again, not the ones from outer space, just the ones who are green with envy:tongueout

Re: End of One Era
 

Yeh really are deluded.:D:D:D:D

Re: End of One Era
 

The day I'm envious of any football team built only by money and over inflated ego's support by like minded people, I'll start watching international tiddlywinks:rolleyes:

Re: End of One Era
 

Ar5e you sure he's going? There's been nowt on TV tonight.

Re: End of One Era
 

Newsflash - Manchesters chewing gum industry in total collapse. Thousands to lose their jobs -demand in sudden, dramatic decline.!!

Re: End of One Era
 

You can't argue with his record, he's set a hell of a target for somebody to be better

Re: End of One Era
 

Why does Dalglish's Jack Walker funded Rovers team spring to mind? You're probably right though, who'd be envious of a team that had to buy a Premier League title?:D:D:D

Re: End of One Era
 

that's why my telly hasn't been turned on yet ..... :p

Re: End of One Era
 

I've never said anything different, Rovers had the right chemistry to win the title Jack Walkers money, Dalglish's management skills and don't forget Ray Harford coaching ability, lots more have tried just throwing money at it and failed Leeds, Liverpool, Newcastle for example. Only 5 teams have won the Premier league title it only became viable for Chelski and City when they became owned by big money people, but for that it would probably still be only 3 winners. I know hope Moyes has the same success over the next 11 years that he's had a Goodison:D

Re: End of One Era
 

The fire Brigade are on standby in the home counties as the met office have issued a flood warning, the gutters are not coping with the floods of tears from United fans at the news of Fergies retirement:D

Re: End of One Era
 

Re: End of One Era
 

There was something on German news today about Jurgen klopp of Borussia Dortmund being in the running & about Loony going to Bayern. Then looking at the English press Moysee's got the job! Shame really as I liked what he did with the "Toffees" but now he'll be off most peoples Crimbo card list for going to Manky U. :rolleyes:

Re: End of One Era
 

At least United don't faff around when it comes to appointing a manager. Perhaps Rovers and Stanley could learn a lesson in how to do it.

Re: End of One Era
 

Plus the Gypo wants a transfer.:D

Re: End of One Era
 

They'll have to have a stock take of the canteen silverware before he goes:D

Re: End of One Era
 

Well they'd already tapped him up behind Everton's back :eek:

Re: End of One Era
 

Your lot might even get to finish above Everton in the league:p:rolleyes:

Re: End of One Era
 

If you can think back there is some history between them since he left Everton:rolleyes:

Re: End of One Era
 

Don't you just wish he had played for the Deadwood gang?
But how about answering my previous query to you - do Deadwood actually pay 61 players?:eek:

Re: End of One Era
 

I haven't a clue, where do they play:confused:

Re: End of One Era
 

And then threw it all away by being too stupid not to improve on the current side - as stated by Alan Shearer on TV- and Venkys weren't even in the picture then:rolleyes:

Re: End of One Era
 

Fergie's left his watch behind. Welcome to 'Moyesie time'

Re: End of One Era
 

Nah, you can't have history repeating itself, as a new era is ushered in at Old Crapford "Fergie time" will be a distant memory only to be replaced by "Moyesie minutes". ;)

Re: End of One Era
 

I have a sneaking suspicion that Moyes is one of those managers that works really well on a shoestring budget man managing average footballers, he'll probably lose the plot juggling with money to burn and handling prima donna superstars and their porsche driving agents.

Ferdinand has already mouthed off about how the new manager shouldnt make any changes and he's pretty much past it nowadays, god alone knows what demands and concessions the real prima donnas are making behind the scenes.

Fasten your seatbelts plastics..it's gonna be a bumpy closed season :end:

Re: End of One Era
 

Anyone got of 'the Dammed United'
Cloughy got 44 days, i wonder if Moyles will get much longer....

Re: End of One Era
 

Much longer, the Glazers paying off a large part of a 6 yrs contract? Can't see it at all.

Re: End of One Era
 

Some of the scouser's managers and the deadwood gang's have not fared much better - especially the deadwood's who fared even worse than Clough:tongueout

Re: End of One Era
 

There's already unrest around the Theatre of Merchandising, a lot of plastic fans are asking for Moyes to be sacked in less that 24 hours in the job, they must know the writings on the wall:D:D:D

They could always get rid of him for £33 million:D

The ideal holiday destination for jaysay, cashman and any Accyweb Scousers, plastic or otherwise::rolleyes:

Welcome

In 2011, Landmark East purchased George Best's family home in order to preserve the legacy of the East Belfast legend.

After an extensive renovation project, the family home is now available to rent for 1 - 14 nights for visitors to experience life for George when he left to join Manchester United in 1963.

Welcome | George Best House

Re: End of One Era
 

Who'd want to visit the home of a drunk;)

Re: End of One Era
 

Easy to make a mistake reading your ramblings:tongueout

Re: End of One Era
 

Well you don't visit me like you don't visit the home of a Manchester Drunk:rolleyes: an armchair plastic, like the majority of um;)

Re: End of One Era
 

:):):):)

Re: End of One Era
 

I hear that Fergie has written to all Prem Refs telling them that nothings change and their present deals are still in tact:rolleyes:

Re: End of One Era
 

Moyes is a strange appointment.

There are some myths about Moyes which the press like to repeat.

1. he gives kids a chance.
This is simply not true, many evertonians will tell you he stifles the progress of youngsters and only plays them out of neccesity.

2. he plays good football.
The 10 years of football at everton has been boring, predictable and very defensive. He is the manager who would rather take a point than risk getting beat. I and many others can not see how he fits with Uniteds attacking philosophy.

3. he is a good tactician.
He is a negative manager, and the press foolishly interpretate making a team hard to beat as being good tactically.
He struggles to change a game, his plan B is always to hit it long to a target man and he is very stubborn, often to his own cost.


I dont expect he will be at United in 12-18 months and I would love to know if you can put a bet on United finishing outside the top 4?

Re: End of One Era
 

You can get odds from a bookie about two flies crawling up a wall, I recon
there are bookies who will give odds on that, but if it looks anything like they will finish outside the top 4 at Christmas, that 12-18 months could well be OTT:D

Re: End of One Era
 

Just been having a look on Paddy Power website, they're offering 500/1 against Howard Webb becoming next permanent manager of MUFC. After all the spouting jaysay and the scouse contingent do they'll no doubt be putting a tenner on.:D:D

Tick tock the clock is ticking
