Time for the bouncy castle?

[Beefymcfc]

Nobody mentioned Moyes?

[Lee_R]

Cant see Moureen going straight in. He'd want to change the style to his own and I cant see them allowing it. More letting Giggs step up and Bacon as an advisor and see how it goes imo.

I would be staggered if they did that.

They spent 2 decades recovering from the transition from busby, having the old cunt hanging around, interfering, having the fans call for him to come back every time they have a few off games is a recipe for disaster for them. I'd be really surprised ifnthey made that mistake again - its gotta be a clean break

Can see that point actually. Would really have liked to see him start entering on a mobility scooter soon though.. waving at their fans etc like he does.. his seat is well too far from the entrance for it to carry on as it is either way.

Seems as if it's been speculated for a few days, and everyone was waiting for the first to bolt, but articles were already written in anticipation...

Speculated?....so no facts behind this?

Nope, but basically now would be the time it would be announced, and that's what journalists seem to be banking on with the story. You can even see from the Telegraph article that it's not some quickly hashed-together piece (although admittedly there's no telling when the info was first compiled - most of it could have been shelved from a few months back, theoretically). As the Telegraph article states, as soon as a decision were made, the board would have to make the info public due to the club being partially floated, to avoid accusations of insider trading.

Well if it's true whoever goes there is on a hiding to nothing imo which would suit us fine.Remember how many managers they had before bacon took over i think it will be like that again happy days.

Mourinho would keep them in the hunt whilst they transitioned away from baconface. Without him they could have a problem, as i dont see that squad performing at that level for anyone other than bacon or jose.

I dipped into the sea of filth that is RC... there was a lad on there reckoned there would be an announcement soon. This appears to have come from The Guardian. So two reasonably good sources

Also the Mail and Radio 5 have articles/announcements out, it would seem.

Just e-mailed Sky....lets beat the grass to startle the snakes

Nah, they are all basing the "story" on bookies movements.

On a market like this, the bookies dont need to take much money before they spook and close a market. They struggle to know the difference between real intelligence and just people jumping on rumours.

One bookie went from Moyes 7/2 to odds on in hours on Sunday, but the market stayed open which tells me that there was some activity, but not big money being staked leading me to believe it is a rumour doing the rounds causing this rather than big bets from people in the know.

If that was the case, big bets from people in the know would have closed the market on sunday when this started to do the rounds.

I'd be really shocked if there is truth in this, but i reckon we will know by about 1pm tomorrow either way, as this speculation will need united to make a statement to the nyse

[Beefymcfc]

Did United not play tonight?

Is anybosy interested in what the Scum do?

If the answer is 'No', phone ghostbusters for a shot in the arm PR man frap.

[gillie]

It took them 28 years after Busby to win the league so i say lets live in hope.

Is the cunt mates with Jimmy Tarbuck ?

[freshie]

Just heard on GMR that the rag staff have been called in for a special meeting/announcement tomorrow. Make of it what you will but I'm off to Asda to get some jelly and ice cream

[london blue 2]

Beating them with anybody other than red nose at the helm just won't feel the same.

[ruralblue]

All the old cunt wants is to get us out of the limelight this weekend as revenge for last season. Its just his way of being the prick he is.

Beating them will always feel good regardless of who is their manager cos most of their fans are cunts

[Lee_R]

Hip Hip hoooorreeyy.

ffs.

Jim even though it sadden's me to say it the FACup is no longer the big event the PL is where it's at so i don't think the old rednosed cunt is trying to steal our thunder.

[Green & Blue]

A rag I spoke with today is all on about Moyes coming in to work alongside Sir Purple nose and eventually step in to his shoes.Seemed very confident in himself but he its highly likely the rag read it in a tabloid over the weekend.

[Blue Since 76]

Beating them with anybody other than red nose at the helm just won't feel the same.

That's why last season was so special - they can't say we wouldn't have win it if they'd still had him, as we did. I'd be happy for him to hang around for a few more seasons, providing we beat them
