The only reason Moyes even still has a job is because Fergie is too stubborn and The Glazers appear happy to accept mediocrity.
Also, haven't personally seen the 'they knew it was going to be a difficult season, and they'd braced themselves for missing out on the CL'. Anyone who's said that is just an arse licker that won't say a bad word against anyone at the club. Every team has those fans, unfortunately.

Good to see you around again.
You may not have seen it personally, but most of the fans have been spewing out that line. It's even more absurd when you consider how spoilt you have to be to have success like that for 20 years, then start throwing the toys out of the pram after 7 months.
Arsenal fans have all stood by their manager in difficult times, Liverpool fans have stood by a selection of managers since we last won the league, city fans would have stood by Mancini, but united fans start crying.
My only surprise, and perhaps a little disappointment, is that the Norwich scarves haven't made an appearance yet.
United will be back within the next year or 2 (probably at our expense), but you can have a marketing department that generates more revenue than anyone else, but you can't generate class.
