In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Welcome Mr Moyes. Solid appointment. We needed stability after that blow of fergie leaving, think he will provide it. Think he will work close enough with fergie behind the scenes anyways for the start, well phonecalls here and there.
Welcome to Manchester! Looking forward to this!
So have we been relegated by association yet?
I don't get that particular hangup either. They are top clubs. As in: Quite good. It follows that nobody has an outstanding record against 'em. Let alone an outstanding away record, which is what people bang on about. We have a shabby enough away record against Chelsea ourselves, for instance: One win during Moyes' reign at Everton. And we ARE a top club.
If anything the record could be taken to demonstrate that Everton have been taken seriously by the top clubs during Moyes' years.
Doubt it ,he's still a Everton manager.
Thank you for writing this.
Everton's presser is going to be a farce.We'll see how he handles it
6 years? Blimey!
Well anyway good luck David and the best, now straighten that midfield out for us and put a good word in Fellaini's ear for us!

You desperately needed someone to validate your hysterical post? Oh Dear!
Welcome to the family David. Here's to many more years of success.
The thing is Fellaini is happier playing in midfield ,more in holding role, while obviously Rooney has not been happy there. Sign Fellaini and it will free up the attackers, and could see Rooney changing his decision
Welcome Sir Dave!
I've no doubt before the six years is up it will be 24-6.

Be interesting to see who he targets as his first signing. As mentioned before, its doubtful he will raid his old club. He has too much loyalty to do that.
However, what gets overlooked is that he actually has a good eye for talent abroad. Thats very rarely the case for Scottish/English managers. Will be interesting to see who he has in mind.

Isn't it enough that he was Ferguson's choice?
@ the OP/Barbara Charles.Has Sir Bobby been reading redcafe? 'Stability breeds success'. People have been mocking him for 'only bringing stability'.
errr 18? My maths is poor
I don't know why some of you are moaning, it was always the sensible choice, it has been for several years.
You never criticized Fergie's decision?
I'm puzzled too. He's among the few I would have been happy with.
In all that time he got far more right than wrong and apparently the board that met unanimously went for Moyes,it wasn't a singular random decision
The Chosen One has arrived then, just as Nostradamus foretold.

They obviously think they know better than Sir Alex and the L.M.A.
I detect a whiff of sexist stereotyping in this post.
Barbara should clobber you with her handbag, smother you in her huge breasts, and gouge your eyes out with her stiletto heeled shoes.
As I said before, this appointment has been long in the making. Fergie marked out Moyes during his time at Preston. My biggest fear - and it's irrational, is that we'd make the same mistakes we did when Busby called it quits. I'm glad we've taken the far-sighted approach. Moyes has served a very tough apprenticeship at Goodison and hasn't been found wanting. With the resources available to him, Fergie's wisdom not being the least of these, he has every reason to expect a successful tenure as manager.
We are not an aging side as we were in 1970. Fergie has laid the foundations for the next 4-year cycle. It's what Moyes does when that ends that should be judged on. That's why he's been given 6 years.
While tying me up with her fishnet stockings
Does she really have hge breasts? Not that I care.......er!
Ooooh, yes please. Just not the last bit.
The feck? Alright then going by that moronic logic, he handpicked our side against Everton last season in the 4-4 which cost us the league. He hand picked our side in August when Moyes' Everton bossed us and we were lucky to get away with a 1-0 loss.
All fecking irrelevant.
Why does stuff like this keep getting flung out as a stick to beat people with because Moyes wasn't their first choice? It doesn't make you look any better a fan than those you're digging at, in spite of what you might think.
Fergie, as great as he is, isn't infallible.
There's nothing wrong with thinking a manager, who a substantial amount of Everton fans think is too negative, and who has no experience of winning trophies, is not the right man for this club. That doesn't make anyone less of a fan.
It's hilarious to see Liverpool fans laugh at us for appointing Moyes when their last two appointments have been a manager whose last job was 10 years ago and a manager whose biggest achievement was achieving promotion with a Swansea team assembled by other manager, and they gave a lot of support to both.
That's likely just a few fans talking shit though. That'd be like coming on here and taking some of the muppets comments as serious talk. We've seen United fans say ridiculous shit about Fergie when he was in charge, you wouldn't go and take those shit opinions as the gospel though.
Moyes setup to play to the strengths of the players he had at Everton. There's a big difference at Manchester United...he's got a squad in a completely different league and can basically sign almost any player he wants.
But, but...... Brendan invented football, and Moyes is a one dimensional long ball merchant
He seems a bit bland, but maybe he's had a lot to be bland about. It's like losing a parent and having a new step-parent to get used to.
WIll judge him on what kind of football we play.
Hope everyone gets behind him.

OOOH! You Top Red you, how could you?
It's just that this is not a spur of a moment choice. He has been watching Moyes for years and had him earmarked for his job. No matter how much charm offensive Jose tried to use. Will be interesting to see how nice Jose is about us next season.and Everton are finishing higher in the league than them.

I think most people, even the ones that arent really happy about the appointment, will get behind him to start with. And thinking about it, we've still got a solid squad and likely will be adding to it. So i dont really think things will turn out too bad in any case for him to not get continued support.
