Nice first post.

Just what we needed another doomsday poster.

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks for the welcome.... I've been a long time voyeur of the site, esp the RM threads of late. Although I did feel it was time for Moyes to move on when he did, I also felt at the time RM was the wrong choice to replace him (and yes, I'll admit I was taken in by RM first season).

I read today that Moyes is in the frame for the Villa gig. Well if he does take that, and Martinez remarkably sticks around, then don't be surprised if the two clubs swap places at the end of next season. I'm sad to say that I really do believe we're on a slippery slope to oblivion with Roberto in charge....FA Cup or no FA Cup !

Welcome mate, I don't agree with all your post above but why don't you introduce yourself in this forum:

I like this guy. Can we keep him?
 

The top managers can seem to get the most out of their players, Fergie could always do this amongst others. I find it hard to believe that the majority of our defenders (Coleman, Stones, Baines and distin) have all dropped in performances these last 2 seasons and it not be down to poor defensive coaching.

Hardly fair comparing to Fergie – the greatest (most successful) manager in the history of English football? and even he almost got sacked after his first few seasons.

Regardless of comparisons it's no coincidence for me that a manager renowned for having a poor defensive record has turned a once solid back line in to one that concedes as many as we do.

If I was a defender and RM wanted to sign me I would run a mile.
 
Moyes qualifying for CL means more than Martinez getting 72 points, same as Moyes failed to match previous managers winning anything. A record points total means zilch in reality. same as BK being part of the most unsuccessful board in history, he won't be remembered for that though.

This 3 with a vengeance.
