Angry bunch tonight, there's still 15 hours to go til official kick off so calm down.

On a better note the Ukraine won the Eurovision contest - woohoo
 
Oh, forgot to add, Moyes is definitely not under consideration.

it's difficult to read the times twitter pic regarding Mourinho but it says 'according to close friends, Mourinho is unlikely to accept Everton's offer', and it also says that we are aware his preference is the Manchester United job. I just hope it's De Boer not Koeman if Mourinho does not materialise.
 
Just wake up and smell the gravy, because it's all gravy where we are heading.

"Have A Cigar" Pink Floyd

Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar.
You're gonna go far, you're gonna fly high,
You're never gonna die, you're gonna make it if you try; they're gonna love you.

And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it Riding the Gravy Train.


Everybody else is just green, have you seen the chart?
It's a helluva start, it could be made into a monster
If we all pull together as a team.

And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it Riding the Gravy Train

Whenever it says close friends i read it as couldnt get any quote or factual info so we will pretend
 

There are factions at Utd that do not want Jose at the club, led by Fergie & Charlton. That's why he never joined Utd earlier in the season when LVG seemed on the brink. There is so much politics behind the scenes at Utd that Jose would have to battle, plus the pressure/spotlight on him would be huge.

I'm sure he'd love that last bit, but at the same time, EFC are a major project that he can mould & create from the ground floor up. He can cement himself as one of the all time greats at EFC, whereas at Utd he will have to put up with the shadow of Fergie - how would that sit with his ego? Plus if they're not in the CL but in the Europa, that's an added hassle that many would see as not ideal.

I think when you look at it, we do have a chance & it's not cut and dried, especially if Moshiri is throwing the major cash around. Mourinho could even be allowed to name his own Director of Football at Everton, something he couldn't do at Utd.

How can you possibly read that?!?
 
If you don't like him just admit it. I don't like Mourinho.

All I am saying is that Benitez has a great record, plus the fact he speaks the language, knows the Premier League and living in the North West of England is not a problem.

When you take all that into account he is a good prospect for us to win a trophy.

Look at our last two managers, from Preston and Wigan.

Would you not want a Champions League Winning Manager to take us forward?
Wouldn't even consider an ex Redsh*te manager...who once considered us as a "Small club" Facht!!
 
United is a massive global 'name'. It would be Mourinho's first choice without a shadow of a doubt. I think we all understand that.
