At the Dubai airport waiting for a flight to the States. In Dubai it was just a hot rumour. By the time i landed, it was a done deal.
Where were you, when you heard the breaking news that Moyes has been sacked?
- Thread starter The Azzurri
- Start date
Just got out of the cinema. Was watching Oculus.
Office smoking break, logged onto here with my phone... 
I was doing a massage after a gym session. It ended up with a glass of champagne.
I was in Voorburg having breakfast. followed it all via twitter and whatsapp!
I was in my home up at 3:20 a.m. using the computer when I felt like going to RedCafe, all of a sudden, and saw that Moyes was sacked. Immediately, I checked ManUtd.com, and I couldn't believe what I saw at the homepage.
At my desk in work when it became official. Was in Southport in the fun house at the pleasure beach when the rumours broke.
Should have been in work but was sat in bed watching sky news and hitting f5 on every site imaginable, embarrassing stuff really.
I was at a football game, standing in my home town team's version of the Stretty, refreshing Twitter on my phone rather than watching the game!
In my car. Missed the first minute of the report because I was distracted by a leggy milf who was walking down the road wearing hot pants. Almost crashed the car, too.
At my desk in work where I am now. Someone at the desk next to me got a text, or was maybe on twitter, and then I logged on here to see if it was true.
Having a wank over my laminated picture of rimmy.
Not really, I was in work talking about the cost of stainless steel. My life is boring.

I was in Sainsbury's. I dropped my shopping and ran outside to call someone!
When the serious rumours broke I'd just finished lighting the barbecue. I admit my first action was to open a bottle of Cava - it would have been opened later, so I don't feel too bad about that.
However I kind of regret it wasn't a bottle of Casillero del Diablo in honour of all our sponsors who apparently sat with Woodward, watching us lose to Liverpool at Old Trafford back in February.

I woke up at half 8 and needed a poo. On the toilet I checked RedCafe and it has just been announced. We both got rid of some shit at the same time.
I got a push notification, on my phone saying Moyes was sacked; which was a reply to a fb update I posted post the loss to Everton. I was at home.
i came back from my grandma, had a nice afternoon browsing the caf and checking all news sources. that was on Monday. When the news broke i was still enjoying my day off, i had a nice breakfast in my Parents' garden on Tuesday morning when the news broke.
Don't get me wrong - I respect Moyes, I feel for him, I wish him luck but boy i was happy when he got sacked.

I was comforting his daughter Lauren while watchin Sky Sports News..
Sitting in the office and browsing the caf, as usual.
I refreshed the cat constantly and waited for the thread title to be changed then switched it on ssn.
On the shitter reading some bid proposals on my tablet when the twitter thing came through.
When you asked the cat if it knew what was happening did it say "Me-how?"
At work, yelled in delight, colleagues snickering at my unproductiveness.
I was just about to sit back & watch Class of '92, just had a quick check into the Cafe to see whether there was anything new and found the 'Moyes to be sacked' thread, turned on Talkshite and followed the thread for the rest of the afternoon. Never got to watch the film...
I read about the flood of rumors when I logged on here after coming home from work.
Then found out about the sacking the next day at work. Work hasn't been that enjoyable for a long while.

I heard the rumours through a retweet on twitter. I then checked #MUFC and then came onto RedCafe... From this moment on Monday afternoon/evening I don't think I switched Sky Sports News off. I was working from home Tuesday morning and was up at 7.30 awaiting official news. It broke at about 8.30am that everything was official.
I was hungover as feck on Monday, but seeing all the rumours on Twitter I instantly felt better and went and cut the grass and generally helped out at home. I couldn't do enough chores I was that happy. Found myself just giggling and punching the air every few minutes as I re-felted the shed roof.
I was at home and I saw that beautifully titled thread on the caf just a few minutes after it was put up. I bought a few beers that night because I was just so damn happy. Such a relief to be able to be excited about the last few games and next season. And I was delighted to see that the Man Utd board had the sense to sack him
I was in my car. It's hard trying to do a victory dance whilst wearing a seatbelt.
I was also in my car when the Germans missed a penalty in world cup 2010. My car, the place for football's extraordinary events.

I was on the train to work. Checked the guardian on my phone and saw it had been confirmed. I wanted to hug the fat smelly commuter sitting next to me. Had a permanent smiled fixed on my face the whole day.
If we're talking about the strong rumours - I was walking along the coast in Scarborough... I got a text from my mate who works for BBC Sport, telling me it was a matter of "when" not "if" and I proceeded to jump up and down and shout at my friends (who aren't into football) that "HE'S BEEN SACKED! HE'S BEEN SACKED!"
Watching SSN while sitting on the couch, in my underpants eating a big bowl of Honey Nut Loops.
"Ding-dong the witch is dead..."
Whats wrong with your mates by the way - do they have the gay?
I think you should get new friends man...

3 of them were girls, and from the guys one likes American Football and Golf, one likes Ice Hockey, the other doesn't like sport... (might have some gay - reports are unconfirmed)
I have other friends who do like football and who I can talk to it about of course, but it's fairly useful to have a group who don't like it - as it offers a route of escapism when you really want to forget about football (like the last 8 months for example...)
You probably had the "Footloose" soundtrack playin in the background too eh?
So, you celebrated his departure by doing shit-loads of housework & a bitta DIY - even though you were hung over as hell?
Why did you stop there man. You should have baked a cake or some scones while you were at. Maybe a bitta celebratory "Moyes' Gone" scarf knitting
A real man gets pissed up at a time like that man. I dread to think what you did when we won the Treble. Probably dressed up as a Scout & went Bob-Jobbing from the sound of it
Out in Glendalough with family. My mate called me and I felt amazing. It also helped that the sun was shining.
Same place I was when Kennedy was shot.
Did the news make you stand up and dust the grass off you knees?
First heard about it on whatsapp on the monday when at a pub lunch with my missus, but then was actually watching SSN when the presenter read it out for the first time, was a good moment.
