  • TFG will retain Moyes to the end of his contract next season, however depressing the prospect. rnrnThey quote “stability” like a Bhuddist chant; they aim to improve the commercial performance of the club while ensuring the football operations does not worsen i.e. relegation. A pitiful lack of ambition, but that’s their priorities.rnrnThe problem is that TFG and Moyes end the season under a lot of scrutiny from unhappy fans who have already seen off one owner, a board of directors and some terrible managers.rnrnIf the first team starts next season poorly, the dissatisfaction right now will go from seven to ten. No-one will show patience with Moyes as fans now his stubborn, conservative selection and tactics inside out. He will be under massive pressure immediately, and we could be facing making a managerial change in November with no ready candidates now available....
    Steve Brown in No final day favours from Moyes after another pathetic showing
  • Mike I’m aware of Coleman’s licence but I did say with a combination of Baines and Carsley who has plenty of successful management experience. How much had HK when he took the job first time round. I’m also aware. It’s different but you know what they say about madness doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Most one knows the young players, ...
    Neil Cremin in No final day favours from Moyes after another pathetic showing
  • Neil #180, I would never ack-ack you, just admire your chutzpah and gently suggest that this is no job for rookies or experiments. rnrnFYI, Seamus doesn\'t have a UEFA Pro Licence... when he and Bainesy did that one game together, Bainesy was the official manager because he was the one with the licence. Coleman\'s B licence allows him to be an amateur manager or pro assistant. ...
    Mike Gaynes in No final day favours from Moyes after another pathetic showing
  • Kieran kinsella, Sean Kelly, Neil Cremin, So glad you ignored the foolish anti-Irish comments, lies and steady stream of insults by Christy Ring directed at people who have criticised Coleman. Neil Cremin. Let me inform you of something. People who are being bullied do NOT actively seek out their bully`s as Christie Ring has repeatedly done. in fact it is a trait of a bully to scream foul play when his aggression comes back over the net. Look at the mans post`s he regularly directs them at people who havent even mentioned him My recent "rants" about Coleman`s contracts and OTT reaction to his retirement are my opinion. You or anybody else wont change that. or shout it down. Understand ? They are not based on where he comes from. Just like my season-long rants about Moyes and Tarkowski are not based on where they come from. If I dont express my opinion on TW. I will express it somewhere else, So please take those hypocritical imaginary red cards you keep waving about and shove ...
    Darren Hind in No final day favours from Moyes after another pathetic showing
  • Great to hear from you Rob and this is word-perfect from first to last. MG (28): I don't think they even posted congratulations yesterday to the Roma club or the manager. 'They' didn't need to MG, as good old Ryan F. was at the Marcantonio Bentegodi Stadium yesterday and no doubt headed down to the dressing room to congratulate the manager, staff, and team in person. He might even have got Daddy on WhatsApp or FaceTime. Mind you the two of them chose to watch golf in Scotland on a Saturday when we were playing at home. Hmmmm, visit the club you own or follow a round of golf? We should wait and see what happens over the summer and not rush to judgment, even though the signs can look ominous for some. I read yesterday that: 'As of May 2026, Ryan Friedkin has taken a prominent, hands-on role in shaping AS Roma's transfer policy, holding critical meetings at the Trigoria training center with coach Gian Piero Gasperini to plan for the 2026/27 season'. Perhaps Saint Daniel-the-Abse...
    Paul Griffiths in European football for Everton was there for the taking
  • Martin (68): Saint Daniel the Absent was not at Verona yesterday, although he was there in September 2020. Interestingly - laughably? - one report online says that he was \'not in attendance because he was focusing on matters relating to his other club, Everton\'. rnrnWonder what they might have been? He must surely be impressed that the only good thing to report on last summer\'s 160 million is one more point.rnrnAnyway, another source reports that:rnrn\'As of May 2026, Ryan Friedkin has taken a prominent, hands-on role in shaping AS Roma\'s transfer policy, holding critical meetings at the Trigoria training center with coach Gian Piero Gasperini to plan for the 2026/27 season\'.rnrnPerhaps Saint Daniel-the-Absent flew into Liverpool on Sunday and got the next flight home as there was nobody there from Everton.rnrnHow many \'critical meetings\' have been held \'to plan for the 2026/27 season\' for us?rnrn...
