Duncan ferguson??? Do me a favour!!! Moyes should use this opportunity, as it is a chance for him to strong arm Bill for some money and some promises not to sell prized assets.

I said I would like Duncan Ferguson, to me the sun shines out of his arse, and I am entitled to my own opinion. I think he will make a brilliant Everton manager one day! And as for the Kenwright comment - he cannot give what he hasn't got!

I'd love ferguson as manager. I think Lcab has hinted at that.

 

[Hayee]

You made some good and valid points there but Alan Irvine as manager would be a disaster, he was awful as Preston and Sheff Wed boss and Big Dunc is simply not ready for a manager posistion yet especially in the prem league

indeed, however, they are clubs he did not know. He knows the in's and out's of Everton and he has worked with Moyes at Everton for many years, therefore I feel he could easily step up to the mark! Look at Roberto Di Matteo - disaster at WBA and not at MK Dons long enough to really be able to judge, but he's just won the FA Cup and Champions League at Chelsea, a team he knows all too well.

I'd have Stubbs as boss before Big Dunc, for now at least. He's done a good job with the ressies. Let Duncan take over the second team and learn the trade.

It's all moot though as Moyes will not walk away from the safest job in football.

 

[quasi modo]

4 > 3. There's enough to suggest that the club prefers in house recruitment, more so than other clubs do.

And out of them 4, 2 were care-taker managers.

Head over heart.

Dunc would be -- right now at least -- a disaster.

See Shearer at Newcastle.

Correct.

Let him learn the ropes either with the ressies or a lower league or Scottish club before. Maybe even a spell as assistant thrown in as well.

I ALWAYS appoint him as assistant on FM because I'm sad like that.

I'm baffled as to why he's even considered.

heh heh you could say that, every single scotch person (even women and children) in london is homeless.....trust me................ i`ve seen them.

 

[billycopper]

Hell never get them jobs.

10 more years...

I do think that the end is getting close, but I don't think the Spurs job is quite right for him. If he can win a trophy next year and the likes of Cahill and Neville call it a day it might seem like a natural end for him.

He's only just started doing his badges, so he couldn't take over yet anyway. It'll be Peter Reid if Moyes goes! :blink:

Well it did appear near the end that Cahill and Neville got phased out, slightly, they both spent time on the bench.

I guess we wait to see what sort of time they both get next Season when everybody is fit.

I also suppose Summer signings or lack of will determine it the most.

I think Moyes purposefully lets his contract run down to give him some leverage with the board when negotiating transfer budgets. If he went to Spurs we would get a pittance in compensation as he only has a year left, so Bill needs to keep him sweet and try to get him to sign a new deal. Where he finds money from is another issue.

Maybe Davey wants to stick around and see our fine crop of youth come through? We probably have the best group of youngsters in the clubs history. Having nurtured them for so long I think he'd find it hard to walk away before they realise their potential.
