Thats pretty much it. I guess in theory he didnt win enough European Cups but its been a more difficlt format thatn in the Paisley years, so I give the nod to Sir Alex.

"You mean that when those in the European cup were actual champions rather today's format for the "champions" league. Yes, much harder to win these days. :-/"


much harder to win these days


you still have all the champions in the competition you know- just there's many more games, and groups to get out of (and a liverpool fan should know that league format is tougher than cup format- you have to be consistently good to win it now)

not saying he isnt a great manager or slagging the job he did, but the timing and appintment was almost perfectly positioned- either luck or planning, I dunno.

"Former Manchester United captain Steve Bruce, on reports that Everton manager David Moyes could be named the next manager of Manchester United, tells Sky Sports: "It would not surprise me. He's a very talented manager who has been at Everton for more than 10 years.


"He's not had huge finances but he has still managed to put an Everton team together that will comfortably finish in the top 10. He has been in the job a long time and he has all the credentials to be a top manager for Manchester United.""


he should be a manager, what with his understanding of the game. Moyes at Everton for 10 years, with no money - I never knew that.

All the rumours are Moyes but I think he'd struggle. Maybe that's the idea so whoever takes over when Moyes is sacked after one season doesn't have SAF to live up to. Klopp anyone?


Personally I'd like to see an OB like Sparky do it - love to see how he'd manage to get them into the bottom three and up for relegation despite their riches etc.

"not saying he isnt a great manager or slagging the job he did, but the timing and appintment was almost perfectly positioned- either luck or planning, I dunno."


crikey woody, that's a bit harsh on the guy. He has wound me up many times over the years but you could take the exact same circumstances and put ANYONE else in at that exact same time and there isn't a hope in hell they would have achieved what SAF has.

    • Electrical work can be dangerous, and hiring an unqualified individual can put you and your family at risk. and negate your insurance. A qualified electrician has the training and experience to safely handle any electrical issues, reducing the likelihood of accidents or injuries. With the exception of simple tasks, it is illegal for anyone other than a licensed electrician to perform electrical work. Hiring a qualified electrician ensures that the work is done in compliance with local laws and building codes. Some electricians are being recommended on EDF but here is no indication that they registered with NICEIC or NAPIT.  One is well advised to steer clear of Check-a-Trade which is a marketing service funded by subscription.

    • Was that the the time it took before reporting something like 'Fully charged'?  If so, had you tried checking from time to time before then whether the battery was effective?   It might also be interesting trying the charger again after a week or two, to see how well the battery is maintaining charge.
