Looking back at the 04/05 season:-

1. Chelsea - 95pts
2. Arsenal - 83pts
3. Manchester United - 77pts
4. Everton - 61pts

That season we finished 18pts behind Chelsea. It took SAF 3 years to win the league again. Mourinho spent a lot of money in his first spell at Chelsea. Now both Chelsea and City spent a lot in the summer along with Arsenal, Spurs and Liverpool. Rodgers finally managed to clear out all the deadwood.

Currently Moyes has NOT been backed financially by the club. Clubs around us have invested significantly in the summer we bought Fellaini and kept our deadwood players.

To not back Moyes in the last transfer window and this transfer window would really put the onus on the Glazers. Already Carrick our key midfielder is injured and we struggle.

To sack Moyes would be wrong without first giving him funds to invest in the team as well as selling some of our dross players.

We quickly forget how easily Moyes Everton team picked out Fergies weakness in our team over the past 2-3 seasons. He tried to sign Baines in the summer along with Fabregas, Herrera. We ended up with Fellaini. We constantly highlighted the need go reinvest all last season. This did not happen. The Glazers & Woodward have a lot of questions to answer, they should start by backing Moyes with a hefty budget for Jan transfer window.

I no we won the league last season but our competition was poor. They invested heavily unlike us and now we are paying the price.

We won't sign for the sake of it, if we do let's go for youth if it takes 2/3years to get back upto top European standard then so be it.
The club is geared up to compete at the highest level get behind it and don't be influenced by the scouse led TV /media who are praying this is long term.
Moyes will turn this around this time last week Liverpool where slated excuses about squad depth and 7days later their back.most posts are embarrassing child like you've been spoilt.

Johnny Giles you've completely missed the point. I suggested Moyes needs to be backed financially by the club. I've defended Moyes in this post and put the blame with the Glazers. To imply I've been spoilt is ludicrous. I want our club to succeed, although I expect it might take a season two to achieve this. Nonetheless I will continue to support Manchester United through thick and thin.
