Who's still backing Moyes?

I am.

He is an experienced premier league manager who knows what he's doing. He was at Everton for 11 years and rarely had them out the top 8 whilst spending little money. He needs time to get it right.

How many managers do we need to go through for people to realise the owner is the problem?

Think the criticism Moyes gets is way over the top. People complaining he never brought any subs on today but how many of these young players have most fans actually seen play live? Not many watch our u23 games. Maybe Moyes has watched and knows they wouldn't have made a difference?

We lost today because Stoke have a better team. Other than Defoe, how many of our starting 11 would have got in theirs today? None.
 

Why did we get thumped off Swansea who by all accounts are one of the few teams in the league as dogshit as us?
 
Moyes has got the weakest hand any manager has had in our recent history. Yes he spent the summer budget but no one could have predicted our injury problems.

Pickford, Kone, Kirchoff, Cattermole, Watmore and Anichebe would all have played had they been fit. How many teams in the bottom half of this league could manage without six first team players?

The trouble is o e of the above won't be fit again this season, at least three of the others have horrendous injury records and Kone arguably doesn't want to be here.

If we get out of this they'll have to bring out a new "Greatest escape" DVD
 
Hes too defeatist for me and it rubs off on your environment.

Yes we are shit but as soon as he said "Were in a relegation battle" before a ball is kicked, you are giving the players an excuse straight away. Then the kids might not be good enough at this level but when you are 2 down and creating nowt, to say to those lads, sorry but even though this team is shit, I still wouldnt give you 10 minutes, what sort of that message does that send out?

Exactly. Many don't consider how unlucky we've been with injuries.
