It would be interesting to find out if he said that before Sparky was sacked, if not, 20/20 hindsight. I like pej, but he's got a real bee in his bonnet at the moment over all this. I think Sparky was given a proper chance to turn things around and I respect the club for that.

If we're using time travel surely we should've gone back further and not sold Stan, insured the roof (through another provider who would've provided us with adequate cover and paid out on our valid claim - edited for Northy) not sold Pesch and gone for Allardyce in the summer.

I like Pej, one of my all time heros as a player. But my god he does spout some shite! He's a sound bloke, I've met him at presentation nights years ago, and really liked him. But he comes over as an embittered old pro, who (Like Us) would love to see a team full of home grown lads who'd run through brick walls for the club. But that's not the world we live in nowadays, and Pej doesn't come over well on Radio Stoke imo. Plus I can see him being really anti QSF if we're not quickly turning teams over. and wanting a UK manager, and saying that these foreign coaches aren't bothered! And whilst I respect his opinion, Moyes?? Wtf???

To be fair to Moyes (and I wouldn't have wanted him here in a million years) it certainly looks like he's turning West Hams fortunes around, although it is still early days.

West ham have got some good players. It wasnt a difficult job. Pej is a bitter old man because Hughes didn't welcome the old boys around the place the way pulis did. Simple as. A stoke fan he may be but he speaks more absolute bollocks than anyone on here does. To use crouchpotatos favourite phrase pej needs to "give it a fucking rest"!

All premier league teams have some good players. Non of the managerial roles at any of them are easy. And I'm not having it that Pejic speaks more bollocks than people like Biscuit

Can anyone really argue with what Pej has written, I wouldn't have wanted Moyes but Hughes should have gone weeks if not months earlier. Gouranga.

Or when he was getting his arse handed to him at Sunderland every week? To explain in simple terms. I’m not passing an opinion on Moyes. I’m questioning the term “absolute bollocks” from one the boards most self opiniated posters. It’s ok from behind a keyboard to be so explicit, I wonder if the same language would be used face to face

Pej has never (as far as I know) advocated that Hughes should be sacked and (as far as I know) has never offered alternatives to Hughes. As far as I know he rarely comments on the likes of West Ham so it would be unlikely he would declare a 'throbber' for Moyes. His column for the Sentinel is purely based on local issues and I don't really understand this animosity towards someone who is saying what the majority on here are saying but a little more succinctly.

Tonight he ‘advocates’ that Hughes should have been sacked weeks ago in favour of Moyes, so he does literally both of those things. He’s been largely spot on in recent weeks because events have caught up with his one-note, stuck in the 70s dreck, but even when we were playing well he was putting the boot into the foreign lads every week for heinous crimes like stepovers.

He's been spot on all season, go back to his analysis of the Man City debacle, he didn't just whinge about the result he analysed why we lost 7-2. He was quite right in his criticism of the Shaqiri stepover, it was embarrassing.

Moyes is a good manager - would have done a good job here. Can’t really see anything very contraversial in that.
