David Moyes sacked by Man Utd

[Gazz]

Seriously though, the longer they go without a permanent manager, the longer the cloud of uncertainty and instability remains, so surely the price will ( ) plummet?

Nah, when they release their first set of quarterly figures that doesn't include Champions League money, that's when the share price will drop slightly, it won't plummet.

General rule in shares is buy on bad news and sell on good news. Regardless of what people may think, sacking any manager is bad news, so canny traders would have bought shares, increasing the price (which it did, by 6% I believe) and then selling them on the next day to traders slower off the mark for an instant profit.

He's right, you know!

Moyes said in the press he was proud to have lead Man Utd to the CL quarter finals.

That pretty much sums it all up

[Gazz]

He's right, you know!

I should do, a stockbroker missed the decimal point and I bought the entire club for £8.63

Manchester United and David Moyes agree a settlement "in respect of the termination of his employment", according to League Managers Association.

[Plubby]

They gave him stock of the club...at the inflated price so NOT VERY MUCH STOCK!!!

[Chael P. Sonnen]

He was compensated with the Chosen One Banner.

This makes way more sense than "They fired their manager, the stock price will fall now"

David Moyes has been 'compromised to a permanent end'.

[Baddar]

I've decided I want Giggs to get the job permanently. He's such a good fit, and impossible to dislike.

Unless he's been shagging your missus, of course, but then even his brother has wished him all the best.

[Chael P. Sonnen]

Superinjuction Giggs.

[Gazz]

I really don't get this whole mythology around the 'Class of '92'. I've already heard them being compared to the Anfield Bootroom and now Steve Bruce is comparing Giggs to Pep Guardiola.

Being a good player and a good professional does not make you a good manager.

[Baddar]

It doesn't, but it might!

[brenchill]

Giggs impossible to dislike?

[Baddar]

He's a triffic lad.

[Kaney]

He's a twat.

[Hobo]

Giggs impossible to dislike?

Well, if you do dislike him you just can't publish it.

[brenchill]

I dislike him, he's a knob.

[Cymbols]

Yeah, the whole affair + super injunction thing soured me on him.

[Gazz]

I think Baddar meant in the context of being a Man Utd fan, in the same way all Newcastle, Spurs and Villa fans agree David Ginola is Jesus.
