I'm not a vindictive person, but hopefully they now get what they deserve and rot for decades, maybe with a double relegation.

Bet Jose is a bit miffed. That's the job he really wanted last Summer. Fergie's managerial tips have proved to utter dogshit over the years

His biggest mistake was not having a pre-season clear out . He has had a lot of powerful has-beens undermining his position and also not performing on the pitch.

I think his biggest mistake was getting rid of all the backroom staff that most of the squad had know like family.

Wow they are already trying to exonerate Sir Red Nose. The MUST spokesman on SSN says the decision to appoint him is the Glazers.

Everyone complains that British managers aren't good enough, but when the best one around gets handed a poisoned chalice, people want him out of a job within a season. As an outsidee who couldn't care less about the affairs of Manchester United, I'd like to see him get another 12 months at it. You got in before me with "poisoned chalice". Things were definitely on the turn at ManU last season although they won the Prem. That was down to Van Persie, the only true world class player they have although Rooney is head and shoulders better than any other English player. But they have not got the quality in depth they traditionally have had and the crop of home bred talent has not been anywhere near the class off previous decades. They could now go through a difficult period of change and have a few more management changes as the club evolves as they did after Busby retired. Hope Stoke finish higher them them next season.

Moyes wins 18 games in first season..........Ferguson wins 12 in his first season.... Just shows the change in football and how it evolves and it now all comes down to money

I'd have thought that with no positional advantage to play for they'd have given him till the end of season. Doing it now is obviously a fiscal consideration. It's all to do with share holders, shirt sales and I suppose season tickets for next season. Stick Giggs in with nothing to lose and calm the nervous investors. then get in somebody with a big name and a powerful CV in the next few months.

Glazers have shown themselves up for what they are, sleazy lot of individuals with no class. Leaking to press and making Moyes turn up this morning at Carrington to be told he was sacked. Sleaze balls.

Also having a manager for 25 years clearing out fergies back room was criminal Fergie had his fingers in every pie at utd Moyes should have worked under him for a year Fergie is to blame for this mess and secretly he will be loving it

There's a reason Fergie left when he did!

Just shows the change in football and how it evolves and it now all comes down to money Football has changed agreed however Ferguson had the strength of pedigree to fall back on. The guy led Aberdeen to European honours and broke the stranglehold of the old firm. Moyes has failed to win a single trophy in over 15 years of management. It was an utterly atrocious decision to appoint him, one of the worst appointments in the history of football.

I've said all season it's the next replacement that is the key descision.
They always needed a fall guy after fergie, prepared to fail in fergies footsteps, get paid a fortune for it with the ability to walk into virtually any job after.
It was Moyes that sold his soul.
The next guy that cones in has a massive budget, does not have replacing fergie round his neck and results can it get any worse.
It's not indicative of the manager merry go round this was always going to happen.
I always fought Moyes was shit, alternating seasons he was fighting relegation or challenging for top 6, he won nothing and is bang average

Although managers are very well paid and have great jobs, I always feel sorry for them when they are sacked, it must be a humiliating experience.
By the way anyone posting on here who thinks Ferguson selected Moyes, and then somehow wanted him to fail, is talking rubbish.
Ferguson got eight years probation, but when you succeed a guy who just won the league by 11 points, you're not going to get very long to prove yourself, and he didn't.

1 year pay off - failure to qualify for CL. So that's why they waited until it was mathematically not possible to qualify?

Moyes wins 18 games in first season..........Ferguson wins 12 in his first season.... Just shows the change in football and how it evolves and it now all comes down to money Too true, staffs. The difference between now and then is that the top clubs now must promise champions league to keep and bring in the best players. And the money drops massively without the champions league. A few years without qualification - soon becomes a decade without - as Chelski, Citeh, Scousers, Arse, Everton and Spoz all steadily improve ... and before you know it, you're looking for a Saint Brendan to dig you out of the long term malaise you're mired in. The Glaziers have no money - What United need is a Chinese billionaire to take them under his wing (that should finish them off!). I'm surprised they chucked Moyes so early; but he never was the right appointment and was probably the clearest sign that the old man was losing the plot (a bit). In the end, they appointed the closest thing Fergie could find to himself, twenty odd years ago; but expected him to perform like the Fergie of last year. I think a spell as the new Tottenham Hotspurs beckons for manure. There's not much in that squad to work with, and it seems unlikely any transfer kitty will rival Citeh or Chelski; and even if it does compete with the Scousers and Arse, they both play champ league next season. You never know. If the red half of Asia decides it is more fun watching the blue half of Manchester (or Liverpool, because they play in red) then it could be a long spell as Newcastle in the offing for manure. Now wouldn't that be sad (But it's nice for Giggsy to get the nod ... presumably The Class of 92 are sticking with buying Salford, and not think of putting in a cheeky bid to the Glaziers!? )

It's also criminal that utd Sind not have an interview and selection process to hire the manager in the first place.
Dave Whelan stated he received over 50cvs for the Wigan job when Martinez left and interviewed the best candidates, ok he got it wrong with the initial process but he hired the guy the right way
I am struggling to why fergie or utd insist Whelan or others were not kept on
Disaster from beginning
