Yes, he a mong for saying it but don't think it was malicious. Just an attempt at humour from an extremely unfunny individual!

I'm not sure people were offended by it, I think they thought it was offensive there is a difference. I also think people thought it was also in poor taste and borderline unpleasant which it was. It isn't though peoples reactions that have led to him being charged, its simply the result of it being leaked and coming to the FA's attention. It may well be over the top but once it was in the public domain I really don't think the FA had much of a choice but to act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan-scott Posted April 28, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted April 28, 2017 Glad they're finally getting relegated, they were like a turd that wouldn't flush, for even longer than us. Next season will be a slog for them, and i can't see them challenging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Moyes saying he'll consider his position at end of the season. I'm quite surprised Ellis Short has been so loyal to him this season. There are plenty of grounds for dismissal purely on results and he got rid of the likes of Poyet and Advocaat when neither had as bad a record. Take out Defoe and Pickford and it's a terrible squad. I think they'll be fighting a relegation battle next season unless they get a change of ownership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Honestly, I'm shocked that they're actually going down. For years now they've always managed to fluke their way to safety in the final stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short has been clear all season that he wouldn't be sacked no matter what the results, so to relegate them and then quit would be a bit of a stab in the back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had 5 shite seasons before we went down and it's about time they went down. I can't see them coming up anytime soon either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After telling me media Sunderland were in a relegations scrap so soon after taking the job, and then trying to remedy that by buying the Everton over 40's squad, Moyes is hugely culpable for their relegation imo. After his last couple of interviews i really think the bloke is losing the plot. I think he's pretty delusional if he thinks there will be many PL teams queuing up for him at the end of the season. All that said, he may feel that offering his resignation after relegation is the honourable thing to do, rather than any sense of arrogance?

I think this is probably right. While I admit that the man himself seems intent on proving this wrong, I think he's a basically decent person who does have a sense of honour and pride. All I would say is that the time to have doubts as to your ability to complete the task successfully is before the club are basically mathematically relegated.

Popular Post rodders0223 Posted April 29, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted April 29, 2017 Sunderland will be a good judging point next season, if they can go down and be competitive next year wil confirm that there is something very, very wrong with this club. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferguson1 Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Not that we'd get him, but I'd take Defoe in a heart beat. Kodjia and Defoe together would get 30+ goals easily in a season. Pipe dream though I suppose, as Defoe will probably end up back at Wet Spam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 They have a better squad than we did last season, the question is how many of their better players can they keep and how smart can they be in the transfer window, unlike us, who spent tens of millions on, for the most part, utter shithouses.
