Report: Board Moyes decision

By Hughie Southon

West Ham continue to have no plans to replace David Moyes despite the club sinking perilously close to the relegation zone.

Various sources are reporting the situation with the London Evening Standard among them and given their good contacts with the boardroom it can almost be taken as read.

Claret and Hugh have been regularly told the same with the club insisting that the manager has plenty of credit in the bank and that their assurances about his position are not the “dreaded vote of confidence.”

However, there can be little question that should the manager fail to turn things around on the midwinter break as a result of Qata the pressure on him is bound to build.

The poor start to the season has come off the back of a £150million summer spending spree but although several of Moyes’ eight new signings are yet to make a significant impact the board insist he must be given reasonable time to get the best from them.

  1. David Moyes – 830 top flight games without winning ANYTHING. Seventy plus away games at “big six” clubs without a win. He’s got to go.

  2. If the board have made this decision they are pitiful. Have they not looked at his teams performances over the last 12 months, relegation here we come. Have they not looked at how he has set up his team, how he continues to pick or be biased to players out of form. There is not one bit of credibility or statistical data that warrants giving him more time. The board need to act and act quickly or they too will lose the respect of the fans.

  3. Sit back and play why West Ham burn. Why do they bother ?

  4. Can anyone give me obe shred of evidence why Moyes should not be sacked now ? We cannot afford to waste this time. A new manager must be on place within the next week.
