The People's Forum: What rebuild? We've added two first teamers to replace the two we lost

and then a bunch of kids the manager clearly doesn't trust

If we are to rebuild would it better to let the old fella with a year left on his contract do that? or a younger more progressive manager that would be tied to the club for the next 4 or 5 years?

Who knows the new guy might get a tune out of the young lads we signed last summer. Bit like Bobby when he took over from Moyes

We're in a fortunate position. We stick with the horlicks and slippers manager or go for the more progressive exciting guy.

I actually think sticking with Moyes is a bigger risk. You look at how we've played this season and the decisions he's made, it takes big balls to go with that again when others are available.

I wouldn't extend it either. As I've said before I'd see how the squad improves over the summer and see where we are at Christmas.

I understand that might be too late for certain managers to be signed up and I understand why people are saying that we need to act now, but as I've also said - for me, the likes of Iraola and Glasner today are yesterday's Thomas Frank and Graham Potter - there's no guarantee of anything (other than a big upheaval and another squad rebuild when we haven't even finished rebuilding this one yet!)

I have no doubt that if there is no improvement then Moyes will be gone and I wouldn't have a problem with that - I wouldn't even have a massive issue with them doing it now, other than the (in my opinion, currently unnecessary) upheaval and rebuild that it would bring.

My opinion (and everyone else's on here) has no effect on anything in the real world so I'll just go with the flow and let the professionals get on with it - no biggie.

What if Dyche hadn't quit and we'd stumbled over the line to safety. (quite a big if, but he was pretty reliable when he needed to beat dross)

Would Moyes have been on the top 5 managerial targets list? Doubtful. Maybe not even top 10.

Going into a the final twelve months of his contract is far from ideal, but if that's the current direction, for goodness sake, don't extend him. His performance in no way merits an additional pension top up.

On a related note, when is the ST renewal deadline? I wonder how many don't renew after the price hikes and ultimately disappointing end to the season?
