His negativity is stinking the place out.
Doesn't matter what form they're in same players all the time.
What the fuck was that all about with Rohl? 3 wingers on the bench and he players a central midfielder out there.
Any player showing any sense of drive and desire to get forward ends up on the bench, Hackney must be thinking what the hell am i doing here.
His subs are just absolutely bizarre, needing a goal he brings on a defensive midfielder that looked exactly what he is, someone that's barely played for a year,why? what the fuck was he hoping for of him.
The thought of another 30 odd more games of his stubbornness and one eyed selections and subs makes me want to puke
That Norgaard sub was it for me.
What does he think he will do for us when we're chasing the game? Break up some attacks? Who gives a shit, we're losing!
Get someone on who'll get the ball forward like Hackney does. It's not rocket science Davey!
The guy has got me to the point of tearing my hair out, his decisions really are that bad [emoji107]
It was pretty much a textbook example of what’s bad about Moyes today.
Negative selection at home against bigger team, changes it only after going behind, running favourite players into the ground, etc. it was all the old hits.
Unbeaten start even with kind fixtures…have a go at least. Frustrating.
The problem though is there are always excuses too because the way the club has been run.
I’ve not been part of the Moyes out club but I’m absolutely fucking fed up of these team selections and substitutions. I can’t see any logic to them whatsoever

The sad part is that there will be zero pressure on him in the media, I wish we had anybody advocating for us
Yeah, all the Evertonians in the media are either company men and/or Moyes old boys.
Rooney might have a go at some point maybe, but probably not.
Just feels incredibly stale once again at the club.
Probably doesn’t help at all regarding the future of the club in terms of ownership and direction and whether the current group in place running the club even care that much.
Hackney has played 27 minutes in 3 PL games since he turned the game around against Man United.
Dibling did well against Wolves and made an impact off the bench against Ipswich. 4 minutes at Hull and sat on the bench today.
You can bet anything Armstrong will be out the team for Norgaard soon.
Took George out of the team when he was playing very well and persisted with Johnson for some reason.
Played Merlin Rohl at RW today with Dibling and George (and Johnson) on the bench.
It takes some effort to have the smallest squad in the league and still be wasting it.
If you're shit but you've got 150 PL appearances then welcome to the team. If you're a decent looking youngester with 100 appearances in the championship then you'll be getting splinters on the bench all season.
Such an archaic way of thinking from Moyes and it's going to get him into trouble quickly.
Yesterdays man and even yesterday he was limited bizarre the way he sees football complaining about the ref after the game instead of looking at his own failings
In defence of moyes we have got a tiny squad with only 1 right back, 1 left back and 1 striker. The recruitment hasnt been good. Theres plenty of problems that arent moyes doing
Thats not to say I wouldnt like him gone and something more exciting. The problem isnt moyes himself though. The problem is the whole fucking lot is at the same boring miserable level

Agree with all of that, but I think his job is safe as houses.
We might flirt with relegation, though, but with a supposed pragmatic, relegation resistant manager at the helm, where do you go from there?

None of us can see the the rhyme or reason behind any of it.
I was running around like a blue arsed fly this morning trying to get things done so i could watch the game didn't see the team until about 12 pleased myko was fit same with branthwaite then i see Rohl's name and think what the absolute fuck is he doing here and every scrap of enthusiasm and hope drifted out of me.
I was already raging when he put Norgaard on, i just wanted to put my boot through the tv.
What i wouldn't do to have Eddie Howe here instead of this fucking prick
