    But anyway, those points are moot because the owners won't pay compensation.

    Unlike all the other owners who, when they have sacked a manager mid-term, and results are desperately needed to avoid relegation, manage to get a sexy new manager from another club. ;hmm

    Mid term managerial changes in the Premier League 2017

    Jan - Hull sack Phelan, they hire Silva who was unattached
    Feb - Leicester sack Ranieri, they promote his assistant Shakespeare
    Mar - Boro sack Karanka, they promote his assistant Agnew
    September - Palace sack De Boer, they hire Hodgson who was unattached
    October - Leicester sack Shakespeare, they hire Puel who was unattached
    Hull went down.
    Boro went down.
    Palace have 4 points.
    Puel was harshly sacked after finishing 8th and getting Southampton to a league cup final.

    None of these were promised by the owners that we are going to the 'next level'

    Moyes had a 28% win percentage at Real Sociedad. Relegated Sunderland with 28 defeats in 43 games.

    Keep trying to justify the owners actions all you want. But they are full of 'rubbish' and have told lie after lie

    Mid term changes in Premier League 2016

    Jan - Swansea hire Guidolin who was unattached (Monk was sacked in December)
    Mar - Newcastle sack McLaren, they hire Benitez who was unattached
    Mar - Villa sack Garde, they promote first team coach Black
    Oct - Swansea sack Guidolin, they hire Bradley from Le Harve (Ligue 2)
    Dec - Palace sack Pardew, they hire Allardyce who was unattached
    Dec - Swansea sack Bradley, they hire Clement, assistant manager at Bayern Munich

    So in the last two years only one Premier League manager has been signed mid season from another club (two if you include Paul Clement) and few can be described as "sexy" (Rafa, maybe Silva and Puel)

    I think my record shows that I have been critical of the current owners since they took over and started to undermine Zola in the media.

    This would be more or less a laughing stock than Man Utd, Real Sociedad and Sunderland?

    I don't want the bloke, but to go on like he is Billy Blunder who once managed his son's Cubs 4th team is OTT, imo.

    I think Sunderland are the perfect example of a laughing stock, as it happens. And if he takes over we'll end up going the same way...

    Were they a laughing stock for appointing Moyes at the time?

    I don't remember that.

    (Separate to the fact that the club had been in a tail-spin for a long time.)

    They were, yes. Moyes has been a busted flush ever since he left Everton. Left every club in a worse state than when he found it.

    Not asking your opinion, asking if that was the perception. Didn't seem it to me.

    Twist

    You constantly make assertions about the owners that either have no basis in fact, or which have been shown to be false.

    You seem to be immune to facts when it comes to them.

    Oh yes it was me who said:

    - the seats would be the same distancedistance away from the pitch at the new stadium

    - our fixtures would take priority over anything. (3 away games to start the season because of athletics)

    - the seats would be claret + blue

    - the retractable seating will be on the running track

    Yet I'm the one who tells lies? Me, a fan?

    If you want to see us relegated, it would suggest you are no kind of fan at all.

    twist, if you misunderstand or misrepresent what they say, it is easy to then claim they lied.

    eg, seats do cover the track, seats are claret and blue.

    What is that massive green carpet around the pitch then, where you can see the running track lines?

    He has failed ever since he left Everton. We would be appointing a failure i dont think it's an OTT reaction.

    My point is, some seats cover some of the track. Not all of it, evidently.

    Is that what was 'promised'?


    Also, breaking a promise isn't (imo) opinion the same as telling a lie.

    (And this is a general observation, before you come back with the old 'defending the owners' schtick.)

    I don't want Moyes but if he is who we appoint then I will get behind him and the team!
    The players need the fans to be behind them on this. They of course need to actually put in an effort on the pitch but if the fans start off with digging at Moyes and the owners from the off, then we have even less chance of avoiding the drop.

    We’re 6 points off 8th. The season can still be a success. Let’s be honest, outside the top six, 7th is anybody’s who wants it. It’s only November and the busy Xmas/New Year period could see us transform our season. At the moment Burnley are 7th, Brighton are 9th and Watford are 10th. All have shown vastly better form than us but all are catchable if we get our act together.

    We do need a change, because I have no confidence we will have a good end of year unlike last year when we scraped a few 1-0 wins against bottom 3 sides. We need someone with a new energy and who will get some basic organisation in our side. Because once we get those two things we will win games, because we have decent players, especially up the top end of the pitch. We just need someone to get the best out of them.

    Exactly - which is why we should be looking for a manager that can coax good football out of good players through good technical coaching and man management, rather than an avoiding relegation or playing safe specialist who will only get us leaking fewer goals. The situation is not yet that drastic.
