Hard to be believe its 10 years ago since this happened. He was probably the last person to find out after all the leaks. Turns it out it was a sign of things to come under Woodward et al


Here we are 10 years later back in 7th

We'd have had Toni Kroos in our midfield if he had stayed, he wasn't the right man for the job, but ultimately none of our managers have been.

Big shame the likes of Thiago too was agreed after Fergie left but Moyes stopped the signing, and the backroom clear out was the worst mistake Moyes made. He fecked up before he even sat down in his office.

2 days before that Grim Reaper predicted his fate

I believed it was a one-off season that we'll forget and slowly get back on track. As you say, 10 years later we're in 7th again.

To think that was a year to the day since we last won the title.

it’s incredibly depressing that we’re still awful a decade later. I thought that we’d be bad after Fergie left, but not this bad.

Wasn't it almost immediately after top 4 became matematically impossible too? We're potentially only 1 game away from that now.
We wouldn’t finish 4th this year even if Villa and Spurs were suddenly docked 20pts for PSR.

I don't disagree, but despite having a 0.1% chance of happening, it is still mathematically possible right now, though the 3 teams above us would have to bomb spectacularly, and we'd have to win pretty much every remaining game, none of which will happen.

It was equally as unrealistic prior to the game that got Moyes sacked too.
