Moyes has won 10 of his last 54 competitive games as a manager.

Call me silly but I think Moyes will do well. I agree and think they've got too,much fire power to be outside the top ten shake up .He spent a lot of time watching us when out on f work so I think may well understand how to get Arnie firing too . Yeah, I remember how he got Man Utd firing as well.

I think Moyes will prove to be a good choice. I know he didn't do well at Sunderland but there are a lot of issues at that club and they were always likely to go down sooner or later. Mark Hughes was considered virtually unemployable after the QPR debacle but did well for at least the first half of his time here. Hughes only had one real failure on his CV. Two at an absolute push. Moyes has three in a row and he was going stale when he was at Everton, who were as ready for him to move on as he was. Yes I take your point but attracting a top manager when you are in the bottom three is quite difficult. It sounds as though he is only getting a short contract, so his brief will be to keep them up even if it is only fourth from bottom, and then they can try to bring in a better manager in the summer. I think he is well capable of doing that.

Bilic has had one dodgy third of a season, after success (or, at least, competence) at club and international level for several years. Moyes has had three disasters in succession.
If Karren Brady has anything to do with replacing Bilic with Moyes, she will lose whatever remaining credibility she has left with Lord Sugar's The Apprentice team. Okay, if WHU needed a freshening up at management level, there must be better options than Moyes.

The natives aren't happy a post on the West Ham Facebook page was as follows Going from bilic to moyes is like finally escaping from fritzels basement to find your being taken abroad by the McCanns bad taste made me chuckle though

Moyes? Looks like West Ham are going for a manager with experience of relegation rather than taking a chance on someone new to the job.

www.balls.ie/football/talksport-west-ham-owners-376237Cobham, I agree that Moyes could be a decent solution but recent appointments suggest otherwise - I doubt he'll get much time, acceptance or appreciation from the support either. A bit like getting the right players Sullivan's always talked a good game but takes the cheap or desperate option although I agree there's a dearth of current choice and I doubt we'd pay what it took to lure a top manager anyway. Most WHU have no problem with Bilic going - he had to - but a replacement plucked straight from the management failure tree - well the bloke having the rant says it all. Good rant, right, yeah, but nobody cares. This is karma for basically ripping off the British tax paying public. Should've stayed at the Boleyn. Should've kept your soul. The club should change its name to some corporate sponsored shite. This doesn't even seem like WHU.

I know it's only talkshite, but they were questioning Pearce about him joining Moyes' coaching team.

I'm gutted. He was doing a terrific job Wouldn't lose sleep over it. Moyes will be a fucking disaster for them. If someone like Bilic can't get these lot going, how is Moyes? Stagnated massively at Everton, failed at Man United, failed in Spain, failed with Sunderland...

I think Moyes will do OK for them too.
Experienced, will get them organised and steady the ship. He will be working with miles better players and a deeper squad than he had at Sunderland.
Classic reactions of the modern Prem fan. Relegated at last job, regardless of the circumstances, must be rubbish. Not got a fancy foreign name, must be a tactical dinosaur.
Not sure how exciting the football will be, but it will be effective.

Factor in a soul destroying stadium, owners who (by Premier League standards) don't spend big, a fan base that are highly sceptical of him, a London media predisposed to not like dour Scots and not least a squad of show ponies all points to a mammoth task If he can get the players working hard and enthusiastic he should be fine but can't see that squad taking to him.

There are some solid pros in there too. Hart, Noble, Hernandez, Reid, Cresswell etc as well as some talented players. His biggest problem might be winning over those love-a-duck,old sparrer, salt of the earth, EastEnders. Don't forget, they're used to seeing Moore, Peters and Hurst...

Of all the managers in the Prem, l'd say that Bilic was just about the most likeable. Took the inevitable set backs that sporting encountets throw at you honestly without deploying the sneaky, bitchy, irksome excuse making and deflection tactics that are Mourinho and Wenger's trademarks.

If Moyes is a sticking plaster who might not get the gig long term, surely Harry Redknapp plus 1 would have been a better option, although I've no idea how he gets on with the Dildos. I think I may have already posted similar yesterday so apologies.

If this is the pool of available managers than Hughes really should have a job for life at Stoke

It's a sobering thought if West Ham turn over Watford in their next game a week on Sunday, quite likely I would suggest, they will temporarily at least be level on points with us in the league table. You can't put a sliver of paper between the teams outside of the big 6 right now.

It's a good appointment, especially if we end up sacking LMH because at least Moyes will be out of the running as his replacement. Unless of course Moyes gets fired rather quickly which may not be as daft as it sounds.

To justify a move to the Olympic Stadium, didn't the West Ham owners sell a Champions League dream to suspicious supporters?
I wonder how employing David Moyes fits in with that dream?
I actually feel quite sorry for West Ham supporters. They've left a stadium that was more than adequate for their needs, one that created an atmosphere that allowed them to be competitive and one that they didn't want to leave to a soulless place that serves only to line the pockets of their owners, who actually claim to be West Ham supporters. It is bad enough when it is a foreign owner with little ties to the club that do such things but these guys claim to be West Ham supporters.

Moyes has won 10 of his last 54 competitive games as a manager. Worth pointing out that Hughes has won just 16 of his last 54 games, including a victory over Stevenage and 2 wins a piece over the dead dogs that were Hull and Sunderland. Another one of those victories was against the other relegated team.
