It was pretty much known that it was going to happen, so that doesn't really give any new news. Guess it takes away any chance of him changing his mind though.
And in fact, that article has now been updated to say that Lewa has "denied he'll definitely go", so it really does leave us at square one.

I don't actually know, I'll find out when the two teams meet.

& yet your first string was abject against them. Weird start for United; Moyes should be grateful to be at a club that is more likely than any other to give him the time he deserves. Abramovich would have had his finger on the trigger about now.
Alas I could be proved wrong because, well, why would you sack Ferguson, but for all their many faults (I.e the fact they are United) they seem like the sort of club who know a manager will need time.

That and Liverpool are ****.

I don't think there was much difference in the two games to be honest. They were both pretty tight and not particularly impressive. Honestly most of our games with Liverpool have been like that for a few years now.
Which team is winning really changes the complexion of those types of games though. "Getting dicked on" becomes "sitting back" and "no cutting edge" becomes "controlling the game".
I hope no one is seriously thinking of sacking Moyes. I'd only think about letting him go if we finish outside the top four or his position becomes untenable for other reasons. Woodward can go sit on a brick though.

I just don't think you can expect him to be good straight away. I've been critical of him when he's clearly got some things wrong. But Ferguson tried to build a side with lots of options, so it's really easy to choose the wrong ones, and he's been in charge for no time at all. Anyone would have made mistakes at this stage, and the club really landed him in it by botching their summer transfer business so badly. Most of the time you'd get away with a few early balls-ups but not with a fixture list like this one, which also magnifies the mistakes because the media coverage is so intense for big games.
I wasn't a massive fan of his appointment but I have a lot of sympathy for him at the moment.

Meh, don't care.

Yeah, as Furball said, most of the big clubs don't really care. It's surplus games for any team in the Champions League. I just hope we don't play a strong team against Chelsea, our squad is thin enough as it is, and we don't need the extra games, let alone the risk of further injury or fatigue.
