I thought it would sensible to post a poll that would allow the good members of GoT to once and for all, settle the Moyes debate.
The perennial get ‘Moyes in’ discourse is reaching fever pitch, fortunately this poll is designed to prevent these most serious discussions further degenerating into excessive middle fingering and outright hostilities amongst the best and most level headed fans in the world.
There’s seems to be fundamentally 3 camps, Moyes cultists, middle grounders who want the best for Everton and the throw your Moyes out the pram brigade, with some nuanced overlap between these 3 profiles.
I propose the results of this poll settle this debate once and for all and be an eternal point of reference for the next ground hog day of Moyes debate.
 

….think there’s as much luck as judgement in appointing a new manager, much depends on our league position and whether we’re after somebody to put a fire out.

I have no idea.
 
A few of those suit so I went cheesy pizza instead.

In seriousness, it's undeniable he did a really good job here from where he took over to when he left we were unrecognisable and working on a very tight budget, we've seen since he left that what he did was good. He had us playing some nice football towards the end, we had players who respected him and us and we felt a great connection to those players as they gave there all week in week out.

Crap record at top teams away and home to some degree but we were always top 8, what I would give for that stability now but not with Moyes at the helm as his time has been and gone, Kendall showed we shouldn't go back imo.
 
Things have now changed with the TFG takeover. In a crisis and with limited options I'd have him back but we can and should aim for better.

I watched most of his recent extended interview 'Goodison is my home" and it was all very blue tinted and sentimentalist. He is starting to sound like a man enjoying retirement.

I'd imagine the Friedkins will not have heard of him.
 
I've backed Dyche, but Moyes is a better manager. In the position we're in, would I accept that? Yes. Managers rarely stick around for more than 3 or 4 years now, it's not like he'd be here forever.

I'd be fascinated to see him as a DoF tbh, but don't think it's for him personally.
