David Moyes FC was founded in 2002 lads.

Sadly in this day and age football isn't all about winning trophies anymore and i personally prefer having 10 years of EPL football then winning a cup

Why should the two be mutually exclusive?

Why can a team not have "10 years in the EPL" as well as win a trophy?

Especially a club like Everton which has only spent a total of four years outside the EPL, or its forebear the Firat Division, ever since league football started in this country back in the reign of Queen Victoria, picking up the odd pot or three along the way.

Particulary as EFC managed to stay in the EPL and win the F.A. Cup in the ten years period before the one you refer too?

What earthly reason is there why Everton couldn't have overcome, at home, a team about to be relegated from the EPL and then see off a team which narrowly avoided relegation frpo the Championship to reach Wembley this year whilst maintaining the 6th place we have occupied this past couple months?

There is none.

There isn't even an unearthly reason.

The lowering of expectatio and the airbrushing of Everton history before Moyes is gthe dark side of the legacy he has left the club.

Younger Evertonians in particular (and I am not making an assumption that you yourself are young) seem to have lost all confidence in the club's ability to survive without Moyes.

Davek elucidated this very point in an earlier post.

This post illustrates perfectly why our club neededrid of Moyes....too many people had bought into the myth that he had become Everton FC.

You know what?

He hadn't.

Two Guardian writers vote David Moyes as Manager of the Year, (the overall winner is Laudrup):

I just can't find a way to agree with any opinion that puts him Manager of the Year. The Wigan defeat alone prevents this, as does not qualifying for Europe (again). I'd give it to Ferguson, for delaying his retirement for one year just to make sure the country knows who the champions are.

"He's behind you!"
"Oh no he isn't!"
"Oh yes he is!"

Get used to it Davey, he'll be watching your every move.

That's pathetic toadying of the highest order from those Guardian writers. Done absolutely nothing this season to justify that selection, all so that when/if he wins something at United, they can turn around and say, "Well, we've always rated Moyes, even before he started at United". Pathetic that.

ha! just seen further down the article (from Scott Murray, who's my favourite writer anyway):

Worst flop:

David Moyes and Everton, after yet another craven capitulation in the Cup. Roberto Martínez and Wigan showed them how to play the glory game.

What a bitter little thread this is.

'MY SAD VIDEO is an anagram of DAVID MOYES. True dat.

Louise Taylor picked coutinho as player of the season...thats why women should be kept away from football

I've read her articles from time to time. She gives women football writers a bad name, that's for sure.

Amy Lawrence is good, tho'...watch out for her pieces, or her appearances on Football Weekly podcast. She'll give you faith that women do know what they're talking about, and do have the same love for the game blokes do.
