I think it is now time to stop having a go at the great david moyes. He is the greatest manager I have ever seen, so I think it is time to start showing him the respect he deserves.

His list of achievements are astounding.

Who can ever forget the season he finished 17th. It was magical.

What about the season when we got knocked out of the champions league qualifiers and then the UEFA cup in the same month. Football Genius.

How about going 1-0 up in a FA Cup final after 25 seconds before panicking like mad and losing 2-1. Awesome.

How can you forget going 1-0 up in a semi-final against Liverpool(who were playing their 3rd choice keeper), then totally bottling it and losing 2-1. His proudest moment.

I bet you all still have the DVD of finishing 'The Magnificent 7th'. It takes pride of place in my collection.

Then going to the bigget club in the universe and losing at home for the first time in donkeys years to little clubs like Everton, Newcastle and Swanse. That takes some doing.

Moysie, I take my hat off to you

I bought a DVD called "David Moyes and the Power of Positive Thinking" - it was a blank disc.

RM and the staff did a lovely video singing "Bring me Sunshine".
If DM and his coaches had done one during their time here it would probably have been some dour dirge penned by the likes of Leonard Cohen full of excuses and regrets and hopelessness.
Any other suggestions?

For Evertonians, it's "eitd 'til I die".
For other clubs' fans, it's more like "Etihad 'til the sugar daddies stop spending".

Bloody spell checker!
It should be "etid" and not "eitd".

David Moyes. A great chief scout. He can spot a player ill give him that, problem is he coaches every ounce of talent out of them. As a tactician he is one of the worst in the league. Negative, defensive, boring and ultimately a let down. As we experienced on all those occasions mentioned in the OP.
