C'mon the O's! Only six more games to go before we break Reading's Record (no we are not going to do it but it's good whilst it lasts!)

If this idea about some of the bigger sides fielding teams in the Conference or other non-leagues goes through then you might have 3!

Naff idea if you ask me, and will ruin other clubs in those divisions. Let the reserves play in the PL reserve league, not the Detol 4th Division or whatever. That's for proper human beings to play in.

All a bit knee jerk after just 6 games. I watched the City game and we battered them. Villa had four chances - scored three of them and one was definitely offside and another may have been but video is inconclusive. Defensive mistakes were made though, as they were at Cardiff and clearly I think we need to be a bit less adventurous away from home. United need to start doing what they did under Fergie; taking risks and playing at a high tempo. Both clubs look weaker defensively than they did a couple of years ago (Ferdinand and Vidic are too slow these days and Nastasic is very promising but has made the odd error) but it's a great league this season with six teams in with a shout.

I thought pretty much the same. The last 2 league games we were poor. I watched the WBA game on Setanta - not sure who it was but the co-commentator said 90% of the Man Utd team can play much better than this. I don't think Moyes is particularly at fault tactically (he may have been against City though), it's the players who haven't woken up yet.

The game we lost to Liverpool we were the better team and should have won. We'd be on 10 points then and not looking bad. There'll be another game where we play shit by scrape a 1-0 or a 2-1. Swings and roundabouts. Judge the managers at the end of the season.

People have disputed the fact that Utd have never been the best of starters (and this is the worst points tally for 24 years) but we've got 2 great cup results - and look at Everton - they never did anything until after Christmas! If Moyes can bring that forward a couple of months that would be good. I'm writing neither team off for any competition they're in at the moment.

Same thing happened with Arsenal this time last year. Worst start for donkey's years, people saying Wenger's time was up... he turned it round, got CL - and them managed to sign Ozil and is top of the league.

In the words of Fergie in his on pitch speech (and the same should go for City by the way) - "We must get behind our new manager, and we must give him time."

I'll only start thinking about any "Moyes Out" type stuff if we fail to get CL for next season, that can be a downward spiral. If we win nothing then so be it, but we need CL to keep the players we've got and attract new ones.

I had Jones in my initial Fantasy team because I think he'll excel if he's fit. Same with Evans. They'll potentially be the new centre back pairing but neither are back to full fitness. I actually sold Jones and bought Ferdinand because his points tally was so high! He'd had a great season! Until I signed him. He was rubbish v City and v West Brom. I'm dropping him for the next game, probably selling him even. So basically those two defeats that Ferdinand gifted us were my fault. #KEVWOUT

Crucial run of games coming up now, it's gonna be very interesting to see where everything stands by mid Jan.

I personally think Moyes job will depend on results over the Christmas period. Regardless of what the official stance is, he's been an utter disaster thus far and the pressure is (quite rightly) visible/tangible. Jobs for the boys doesn't cut it at the top!

Orient still on top - just - going into a hectic schedule without our top two scorrers in Kevin Lisbie (injured) and David Mooney (stooopid red card in the FA cup last weekend). How the top scoring side in the division manage away at Bradford today and over Christmas remains to be seen. If we are still up there after the New Year then I will start to believe!

P.S - Cavey, The Samaritans have set up a special phone line for those affected by today's news. I'd like to plead with you to give them a call before considering anything stupid. 08457 90 90 90

Yep, I'd agree with that lot. Still, that win percentage stat suggests he really hasn't done a bad enough job to get the boot, and I agree with the quote there that he should have had until the end of the season.
