Giggs should be shown the door for some of the things coming out now about how the players treated Moyes, especially if he's the one who heckled him from the subs bench.

It's one thing that Moyes wasn't good enough, but you'll have to wonder where all this embarrassing stuff from team meetings and the dressing room is coming from now. Seems like there's a lot of campaigning to paint him as utterly incompetent to avoid any focus on other deeper lying issues at the club.

lol hes clueless to be fair so is Woodward so it all fits looking more and more like they'll get LvG - he only put his name into the spurs ring for that reason to be honest. I kind of hope we get Thomas Tuchel now I think he'd do well

The more I read about Tuchel the more I would love to see him managing Spurs. Bookies really don't seem to fancy him though, it looks like we had a look at him in December and for whatever reason thought better of it. If the odds are anything to go by it'll be Allegri or Moyes.

My mate who works for the Times is telling me that Chelsea are indeed considering an appeal. They know that if they appeal, he'll most likely get a longer ban but he'll also be able to play against Liverpool. If they don't appeal, the ban will probably be 4 matches but he won't be able to play against Liverpool. So they're thinking about it and will make a decision soon.

I think even Leeds weren't miles off the pace. IIRC the top 4 were separated by like 4 or 5 points in late March. Then Arsenal decided they had enough of that nonsense and just won the last 10 or 12 matches, sort of like Liverpool now. We were top for basically the entire season until Christmas where we bottled it and it all fell apart
