David Moyes took over Everton on the 14th March 2002, he took over a oldish squad, full of old and mostly tosh players, we found ourselves, as was normal, involved in a fight to stay in the Premiership, something we had done for most of the previous 10 or so Years before that, Unsy smashed it and the rest is history.
During his time at the Club we failed to win a trophy, we got to a few Semi-Finals and even a Final once, but if im honest, not once did we ever look likely to win fck all, he did however drag us from the bottom to near the top, he built an excellent, if not a little flawed squad, but most of all, he gave me hope, the hope that things could get better, so for everything he did, I thank him and wish him well for the remainder of his career.
He now has the perfect Club in which to win trophys, he has no excuses, nothing to hide behind, if he fails, he will fail due to his ability to Manage. He has left behind, as stated, an excellent Everton "squad", which has a first 11 that would rival any team in the League, but as also said, its flawed in places, a Striker that can actual place the ball into the net thingy being the most glaring.
So once again, thank you David Moyes, for giving me hope when all hope was gone and may you have a full and trophy laden career, my only wish is that you "bottle" it everytime you face Everton and get smashed 5-0.
