Have a look at Troutbeck in Lake District. Just come back from a weekend at Queens Head pub which is fantastic and in great location. Dependant on budget just down road is Limefitt Park which has lodges etc. Great location for walks and only couple of miles from Ambleside or Windermere

Are things turning against Moyes?
I felt one of a small group until recently but feels like tide is turning

Wasn’t that exactly the odds they offered for Leicester City?
I don’t know mate. Agreed it will take a lot but look at the RS this season. Slot has not improved them. Spurs are worse than us - again. What happens when Pep goes?
Things do change - we need to be in a position to take advantage

We clearly differ on what it takes to become a legend. Moyes has done a steady job - nothing more.
Have a good day 👍

Exactly this. As Southall said years ago Kenwright & Co brainwashed us to think we should be grateful to just compete. I want us to win. I am old enough to have seen us be best team in the league playing best football. I want that again - not to be bored by Moyes tactics and think top 8 is success

His ONLY trophy in 25+ years.
Glasner took a smaller club with a smaller budget to a better trophy in 2 years.
Surely that is what we should be aiming for

Where does 12 years come from? 7th and 2 8th placed since then. You really think we beat that!

Let’s just give up then.🤷‍♂️.

I don’t mind losing but I want to go down throwing punches - not whimpering in the corner and trying not to get hit.

Once in 25 seasons.
And even then with a negative goal difference.
Tells you everything about his style

With 5 home games left and 3 being against top 6 sides then the home record is likely to look pretty miserable at end of season. Much of that is down to Moyes and his 'not lose' philosophy. Yes he has steadied the ship but can he do much more? History says not really.

Unless Moyes takes the chance and plays a side with an eye on the future then we won’t really know.
How good would JB and JoB be?
Can Garner / KDH / Armstrong / Rohl give us a strong CM?
Which two works best?
Dibling?
I don’t know answers to above but I do know answer is not IGG / Keane / Tarkowski

To squeeze in his favourites. No other answer IMO
Our best midfield performance was A v Villa - Garner / Armstrong / Rohl - youth and athleticism. Moyes forced to play them due to players missing. Superb performance yet Rohl not seen since .

And don’t start me on those corners. How many times did that fail to work? Is that the extent of our set piece creativity?
7 home games without a win - you need more than a new cardi Trish

We absolutely deserved something because they weren’t very good either. But we paid them far too much respect- as Moyes has always done. He moved our pace at CB out to LB and lo and behold we get done for pace.
Patto hasn’t lost a game he has started - so we put our best midfielder at RB instead.

He had Armstrong dropping in as a 5th defender first half when Utd had the ball.
Just so negative

Needs to go overboard

He set out not to lose Trish. He left players with attacking ability on the bench.
Yes we deserved more but how many clear chances did we create?
How many do we usually create?
Moyes is very limited in attacking sense which is why we struggle to win at homes. No wins in 7 home games. Not acceptable

Bring in a new manager, give them the available cash to sign players THEY want who can make us more attractive to watch and capable of scoring goals. Moyes can’t do that.
His signings have been poor - more that don’t play than do - and he is unable to build a team that scores goals. Iraola please

We gave away a goal because we had no pace at CB. Why? Because our centre half with pace was at LB.
We piled corner after corner onto the keeper and got f**k all. Where is the creativity in that.
First half we dropped to a back 5 every time Utd had the ball. This is NOT a great Utd team.

We are shite at home this season. Utd may be in form but they are not much better than us. We finished above them last season and they scraped a late draw at West Ham last time out. Hardly Utd in their pomp. But we go in not to lose as opposed to try to win. Just like Moyes always has.

Can’t wait to fail?
The point is Moyes tactics have failed the last 5 home games.
But you are content to do the same thing over?
Which one of us is happy to fail?

So we move our best CB to left back
Put our best midfielder at RB
And bring back Keane
Then wonder why we don’t score many goals 🤷‍♂️.
Patterson may not be the best but we have looked better balanced with him in the side

Not win the league. Just a home game would be nice !!
But hey, we all cry for full backs in the TF window so he leaves 3 on the bench to accommodate Keane.
Dithering Dave and his knife to a gun fight

Imagine if Allardyce had picked that side. Or worse still Dyche.
Would have been uproar.
3 fullbacks available and all n the bench to shoehorn Keane back in
🤷‍♂️

With the coverage all loaded towards Utd I’d be surprised they even know we are playing tonight John

Now my maths may not be perfect but,,,

Think Delap be excellent for us - if Moyes stays!

Maybe he did. But Moyes preferred Heitinga (centre half) at RB

Can look at it both ways.
But he certainly chose Lescott ahead of Baines - another centre half

Baines couldn’t get past a centre half for quite some time - and when he did look how good he was.
Seamus was sent out on loan whilst Moyes played Phil Neville and John Heitinga at RB.
Seamus was excellent at Blackpool that season

Exactly Cheryl. Fergie was really struggling at one time - then look what happened.
Still think we jumped too quickly with Silva - not quickly enough mind with FSW and Dyche.
It really is right time, right place and heaps of luck sometimes
