Moyes explains his “sacking not end of earth” comment

By Hughie Southon

David Moyes has been quoted on a favoured podcast as saying that it wouldn’t be the end of the earth for him were he to be sacked,

He used some colourful language to describe his current situation and was questioned about the remarks at the presser ahead of the Everton game.

Responding to reporters he said: “I think I think the biggest thing is probably my period at Manchester United, I felt as if I should have done better and I wanted to do better.

At the moment, I want to do better here at West Ham but we’ve also had a bit of time and what we’ve done in those two years for West Ham to be sixth in the Premier League, seventh, probably this time last year we were still being talked about Champions League qualification.

So from those points of view, I’d say those things are great. We put in more seats in the stadium to get more people in, now that wouldn’t have happened if we hadn’t had a level of success in the last couple of years.

So I think there are an awful lot of things going on, but obviously we want to correct the things that have not been going so well.”
