Manchester United

[Leyton388]

Come on lads start spreading rumours of him getting sacked so their fans get their hopes up only to be dashed.

[Pablo]

Border line delusional post.

Idiotic comment. Even for him.

[meffin]

If they sacked him, who would they get in mid season- none of the big boys would leave half way through a season. Im confident they will at least stick with him for this season.

when does the NYSE open - it's 6:51 there - so it mus be the next hour or two

If they have that amount of money to spend, how come Fergie didn't spend some of it in the preceeding seasons to replace some of the ****e they have/or aged players on the way out?

I'm assuming that this is from their huge cash reserves they've been banging on about for the last few years? Maybe bumped up by the new TV and Sponsorship deals.

David Moyes' position as Manchester United manager remains secure

• Moyes retains full support of club despite Olympiakos defeat
• United managed only one shot on target in Greece

David Moyes's position as Manchester United manager remains secure despite the dismal 2-0 defeat to Olympiakos on Tuesday evening in the Champions League.

In a season of disappointing results during the Scot's inaugural campaign in charge, the manner of the loss against the Greek champions at the Karaiskakis Stadium, in which they managed only a single shot on target, was a new low for United.

The display leaves the champions needing to win the last-16 second leg by three goals at Old Trafford on 19 March to avoid being knocked out by the Olympiakos, who are considered a continental minnow.

Yet despite this – and a league position that has United 11 points from Liverpool in the fourth and final Champions League berth – Moyes retains the full support of the club.

Before the second leg United travel to West Bromwich Albion on 8 March ahead of the visit of Liverpool to Old Trafford, meaning Moyes's team could be an even greater number of points from fourth place by the time they face Brendan Rogers' side.

Oh no, the dreaded vote of confidence???

Par for the course with Ballague for a very long time

Ferguson till the summer nailed on -

as i said, they need to gamble on a big miracle happening - their best chance imo would be Ferguson - he'd give the players, the fans, the club, the media a huge lift and they might just be hoping that it's enough to get some sort of miracle to happen

[Gibbo]

Does anybody feel sorry for them yet?

[Fredo]

Similar pressure than the one Bodgson witnessed with us being built up. I suspect that he'll be gone before we face them - who do they play next? The locals will be in a rage if we trounce them at OT.

Think they may well have Fergie back until the end of the season.

I think we're the next team the play at OT so as long as West Brom don't crush them, he should survive till then!

[Rich]

Why would Fergie take it on - none of his backroom staff are there? No way would he want to tarnish his reputation.

West Brom, Then Us.
