To have us safe by mid April given where we were when he took over, he'd have had to deliver close to top six results. He'd had to have taken a side that had spent the majority of the last 18 months in the bottom six and like ****ing a light switch deliver top six results.

Don't want much do you.
I’m not on here to hammer Moyes, but look back through his record at ours.

We lost a lot of games by three or four goals.

Anyway, good luck to the bloke.

I wonder if there's any significance in the self-imposed 'ten days' to make an appointment. Why ten days? Is the end of the play-offs? Does a foreign league or cup competition finish then? Is Sullivan ****ing off on a holiday?
Just seems odd to stipulate ten days rather than say 'as soon as possible' or 'well before the start of the season so the new manager can assess the squad, etc'.
Mind you trying to find logic, reason or a plan as far as those two are concerned is like trying to find order in the way birds ****.

I'm laughing it's so ridiculous, just another cluster f*** from the Dildo brothers, fannying around with their decision making, no clarity on what they want..... I've said it before it's really irrelevant who is the manager here with the clowns at the top....

The one thing giving me the hump though is that it will be trotted out that it's us the fans that have caused this, seriously what a crock of ****, as soon as Moyes questioned the board and the club that was game over, it has f*** all to do with what the fans want, but in true Sully style, why admit culpability when you can blame someone else.

What are our odds for the drop next year, get on quick I'd suggest

BTW - Cheers Moyes, I didn't want you here, but you were another manager in our history so thanks and all the best

In reality Moyes left on Sunday when his contract expired, all that has happened since is Moyes and Sullivan have been in a race to say 'not interested'.

Moyes would have jumped at the job, but has been kept on the hook over the past 3 months with the quotes about 'we hope he is here for the long term', 'we agreed to wait until the end of the season', 'we know we need to make changes to the way we have been operating' blah blah. Moyes has recently seen through this and made statements to show he is not interested, rather than be rejected.

Sully has been stockpiling transfer cash to be able to support a big name IF he can land one.

Like Bilic, I cant see anything but working down a list until we get 4th choice.

The other curious background story is the cancellation of the protest March, which could only have been cancelled (IMHO) if an NDA had been signed and Sully had disclosed his summer intentions and did not want them undermined by protesters.

Interesting 10 days ahead.

It's certainly going to make for an interesting summer or the worst one we have had since the midget dickhead took over!!
It will come out that Sullivan hates West Ham and supports Spurs, and all along has been doing his utmost to destroy the club.

I know that is far fetched, but it seems like he is doing everything possible to make the club a complete shambles.

Dry your eyes mate.

:lol:

Not disappointed Irvine & Pearce have gone? They were a major reason in our upturn in fortunes & staying up imo. The team looked fitter, organised, a threat going forward & I think the players respected him/them.

Question to you. What Manager will you support & stop looking for every negative? You admit you haven't stop with the 'everythings so bad' posts every single day.

I will personally support everyone, accept Glenn Hoddle or Steve McClaren. One for his disgusting talk about disabled people & the other cos he's a sh*t football manager.

You?

I’m not nearly stubborn enough to wish Steve Bruce upon us :D

I genuinely hope whoever comes in has us playing beautiful football with a solid defence.

What will happen is we’ll take a few 3/4-0 beatings like we do every season, like we did under Sam, Bilic and Moyes. Hopefully then people will realise where the real problem is rather than gunning for the manager again.

Has he? I hope you are right, but I wouldn’t be quoting that as fact.

So he has gone now. I never wanted him here as I don't think he is an especially good manager, and nothing that has happened in his time at West Ham has made me change my mind.
However, he kept us up. So thank you Mr Moyes and good luck for the future.

So a quick re-cap.

1. Moyes turns us down after Sully ****'s him about.
2. Fonseca turns us down after a meeting with Sully.
3. Apparently Ancelotti has flat turned us down. :lol:

I don't know how true all of these things are, but all I can see so far is Sully making a total clusterfuck of picking a new manager already, and the season only finished 3 days ago!

He's now given himself 10 days to rush to find someone, so expect more declines from "big names" followed by an underwhelming choice next weekend.

I did wonder that myself. Those photos suited Fonseca.

Anyway six months after the club said Moyes matched our ambitions I see we’re after someone who matches our ambitions. :) This club is a bigger circus than ever.

"We are already taking steps to identify and recruit the manager we believe can take West Ham United forward in line with our ambitions."

Interesting use of the singular.

If the meeting with Fonseca was legit then it must be him then.

Well summed up.

It's an utter f**kery once again. We will be AGAIN playing catch up in season 2018/19. Last minute signings to fill holes in the squad & a new Manager unsure of who's who or what is required.

Absolute f**king dummies. Another unsettled mess for 12 months.

Well played Sullivan :thdn:

Not gone well for old Moyesey, 4th time he has been sacked/left since the start of his 6 year Man U contract, and still has a year left to go
