Confirmed: Moyes sacked.

[Shamwow]

Although it sounds like the media has been fully briefed by the club, judging by the fact all papers are coming out with it at once.

 

[Bestie07]

It'll be quite funny watching the reaction if this turns out to be a false rumour.

Can't be. Everyone is reporting it at the same time.

 

[Raul Madrid]

I'd be relieved for Manchester United but a bit sad for the man. He clearly got a job much above his station and has his managerial reputation in tatters as a result of it.

Very true, I feel sorry for him too. Its the right decision though

 

[devilish]

Its sad because moyes is not a bad person. Unfortunately hes out of depth.

Oh well he tried his best

 

[CassiusClaymore]

Thought as much.

Not gonna revel in it but it has clearly been a massive mistake from the get go and one that I'm pleased we're trying to rectify before the new season.

 

[Sir Matt]

 

[SteveJ]

Very true, I feel sorry for him too. Its the right decision though

Yep.

 

[jeff_goldblum]

Hope this is true. I've been largely defensive of Moyes as I don't believe he's as awful as people on here have been saying but he's obviously not the person to take us forward.

 

[Suli]

I feel so happy.

 

[DWelbz19]

Oh my word, I am so relieved.

 

[LARulz]

Its sad because moyes is not a bad person. Unfortunately hes out of depth.

Oh well he tried his best

Yeah, Moyes comes across as a nice guy, tried his best and all but then I remember he's getting a bumper pay deal. It worked out well for all

 

[Adzzz]

Hallelujah

 

[Shamwow]

Can't be. Everyone is reporting it at the same time.

Yeah it must be true.

Still, would be almost worth it to see the reaction

A good man in the wrong job. Deserves the sack but hopefully it doesn't tarnish his reputation totally.

 

[RonaldoVII]

Could the timing be anything to do with the stock exchange?

more stories suggesting the same.

 

[JohnDoe]

A month ago I would've said (and indeed did say) there's no way he'll be sacked before next season, but after the performance last night and the reaction to it it seemed obvious that this was the final straw.

 

[NotoriousISSY]

Has to happen. No other way to go.

I would've understood a decision to give him one more year but I fully understand the decision to relieve him of his duties.

Tick tock Uncle Malc, get the boot out.

 

[17Larsson]

What the hell are we going to talk about now?

 

[Shamwow]

It's probably the best thing for Moyes. Sometimes these things don't work out. Can't imagine he's been getting much sleep the past 7-8 months.

 

[walsh]

If true, I have one more thing to add.

#KloppIn

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Very true, I feel sorry for him too. Its the right decision though

I wouldn't feel too bad for him. He's been very well compensated.

 

[united_99]

Haven't been so excited since our RM games last season!

 

[Raven Blade]

While I don't like to see these things happen, we can't go on like this.

 

[Guy Incognito]

Thanks for the memories Davey.

 

[Drifter]

Can't say i'll take pleasure of him being sacked.If true.

 

[Shamwow]

What the hell are we going to talk about now?

Cue mass arguments over which manager we should get in next, and which players he should sign.

 

[Shane88]

♫ It's a beautiful day, Moyes is going away! ♫

 

[scorgasm]

All over my Twitter and else where, first thing I do get the feck on the caf to see how legit it is.

 

[Suli]

Were the rumours of Welbeck leaving, amongst other things, what tipped Moyes over the edge?

 

[Snake Plissken]

Terrible lack of respect from a lot of fair weather fans on here.

 

[Kakeru]

To use Fall Out Boy's anthemic line from The Phoenix, PUT ON YOUR WAR PAINT!

 

[amolbhatia50k]

I can't even describe the feeling if this comes true.

 

[JinnerJamie]

When I first read the thread title I thought he'd gone...

 

[united_99]

Have BBC and Skysports understood yet?

 

[Remix]

Were the rumours of Welbeck leaving, amongst other things, what tipped Moyes over the edge?

Losing the dressing room is what's got him the sack.

 

[saivet]

I'm happy but I also feel sorry for him. It's not his fault he wasn't up to the job. I've got no doubt he tried his best but unfortunately it just wasn't enough.

 

[Plugsy]

No hard feelings towards Moyes, I don't doubt he tried but his efforts weren't up to our standards

 

[Traub]

Best transfer of the summer!

You'd have to think the tipping point was mathematically not being able to make top 4 - probably a clause in the contract regarding objectives.
