I've moved to satisfied on the moyes-o-meter. He looks like he's going to screw them over royally and keep his job. Well done, wee Davey!

Still not satisfied. They're not in the relegation scrap yet.

If that happens, they'll sack him. If he keeps teasing them with top 4, they'll give him money to spend on more top signings so that when they finally suss him, he'll have spent the lot and left them with a huge wage bill on average players.

I want them to get as many managers as we've had in the last few years (many to be Frank) and then we'll know it's really come about.

Takes time to get there - a rag said to me a few weeks ago that they were in transition. I thought he was going to cry when I told him we'd been in transition from 1976 to 2011.

This transition bollocks makes me laugh... If them getting a new manager means they're in transition then so are we and Chelski..

Love it.

They are trying to console themselves with thoughts of transition etc whilst the reality is they have to have a massive Sheikh-up in their playing staff. The Glazers pulled a fast one with the shares issue and they are now getting their trousers pulled down with a major fall in their stock. Somebody's been playing them, keeing the price artificially high before returning it to a price that it is more relative when it comes to rumours of another 10% sale.

The Glazers will try to ensure they're there or there abouts, it's just a question of how much they can do at this time, moving debt around. The problem isn't them per se, more the bloke in charge which they now have to stick with until there is no chance of qualifying for the CL. Taggart is the reason behind that.

It's excellent, lose a few, get stick, win a few, pressure off, lose a few more and stay out of the top 4 chasers.

He is still not in the satisfactory zone, he is flirting with us loosing an occasional game. May by getting rags to loose every other game keeping them in the title race in January, then in contention for champions league spot in February, then for europa league in March, finally ending below 10 will get my approval for Gollum.

Like rags I believe he is still in transition, but I have very high hopes on him.

I've just heard his rant fron the BBC website about the referree. Penalties or not the man needs to step back and look how his team is playing. He genuinely believes they had Spurs under control last night.
In the game i watched last night Spurs had most of the game and then sat back in the last 15 minutes.

I reckon Swansea will tonk them twice.

Re Penalties he says

"I find it incredible but the people who employ the referees are going to have to look at that and see if they get that right."

Can't he sort it out internally ?

The rags employ the refs don't they ?

Was speaking with an Everton fan and he was saying how they've really taken to Martinez, not just because he's a better manager and they're playing better football than Gollum could ever imagine but because of his post match interviews, most of the tine ot seemed Gollum had been watching a different game to the rest of the world where as win, lose or draw, Martinez is very honest with his analysis of the game.

Sounded like a desperate man to me. And wft is that 3-piece suit? I thought he'd just left a wedding.

He said they played well - fuck me he was watching a different match. Sure they put pressure on toward the end, who doesn't when behind? Shame about the first 65 minutes!

What I found incredible was his claim that the scum are defending well. He kept saying 'we got caught on 2 breakaways' Aren't defences suppose to be set up to stop that. Then of course he ignored gilt edged chances for Lennon and Soldado which were missed. Bottom line 4 home defeats half way through the season is a dreadful record. He can rant all he likes but one thing is very clear.

To add to the comment above. Even my missus picked up on the comments this morning before i left for work . The missus is no footy fan at all but commented saying anyone that blames the ref for losing is a poor loser. Secondly she picked up on a comment from Martinez , who replaced Gollum at Everton( her words) who quite honestly and realistically conceded that Everton were fortunate to get the draw

The filth are currently about ten levels of the English football pyramid higher than I want them to be. A long way to go yet but it is a decent start. I'll smile when they are in the Conference South.
