So according to David Moyes the Board and himself are a LOT older and wiser than most and are able to see the 'bigger picture' when all others can only see what is in front of them.

Bold talk indeed for a manager who has just overseen an appalling run of domestic form of 14 wins in 42 games, culminating in the recent sequence of FIVE defeats in a row!

Bad luck and injuries are all part of the game, past and present, so to reference these old managerial adversaries is really back ward thinking, look at Chelski and how they pull the trigger even on successful managers, we are not suggesting that the Hammers board should adopt such ruthless procedures but perhaps they may concede privately if not publicly that David Moyes' tenure as manager has come to an end, that is not to say he hasn't done brilliantly for the club over the last three years, but all that good work and Kudos is in danger of going up in smoke.

Moyes has ALWAYS been superb at bringing players through, converting players to play on other positions and working on a shoe string budget, however when he has a team of top players at his disposal he has struggled, unfortunately he seems to have hit that impasse again at West Ham.

In the past it is fair to say the club has been under financed in the transfer market, but the same cannot be said now, the fact is Moyes DOES have a superb squad now, despite injuries to key players and is currently unable to get the players he DOES have available to perform to the vest of their capabilities, although no experts we at the Org are of the opinion that losing Alan Irvine AND Stuart Pearce fro the coaching teM Has had a collateral effect on the club from which it has NEVER recovered, just look at the results over the last 18 months, the European adventures have masked a woeful run of domestic results.

IF Hammers win at Leeds tonight which is highly doubtful it will only postpone what will eventually be a painful but necessary decision from the board, we state this with NO malice, just a sprinkling of reality. - Ed

Despite the great ride we have been on. We are back to were we started when Moyes took over. Though on paper with a better calibre of player. Yes we have been plauged again by injuries. Yes we have had absolute no luck whatsoever for the entire campaign but the trend needs to stop. Unfortunately thst is Moyes.
