Title: Moore vs McCann
Post by: Nudga on August 31, 2024, 11:31:49 am
Match title with a difference.

I'm off to Tiffany's bar in Puerto Rico, Gran Canaria to book a telly to watch the match.
If you're going to the match, give DM some shit and give Super GM some extra special noise.

If not going,  where are you guys watching it from?

At home in New Zealand. Great KO time for me - 11.30 p.m. Usually 2,3 or 4 a.m. Never miss a match but at my age it takes me until about Tuesday to recover. RTID.

And we'd have won even more convincingly had Moore's side not got a late pelanty.

Are you aware that May played more minutes (as a proportion of those that he was available for) under Moore than McCann?

Went to a bar called Extreme, loads of TV's and gladly put ours on.
Ended up getting quite pissed.

What the hell has that got to do with Moore giving him away ?

According to you Alfie May scoring is the answer to the question of Moore vs McCann. The fact is that neither of them rated him enough to give him significant game time, and Moore actually played him more than McCann did. So I’m trying to work out why you think that makes it a feather in McCann’s cap.

"Look at Moore standing there, hands in pockets, not having a clue what to do. The big, gormless git. After he's gone he'll be managing at McDonalds next."

This is from the Vale forum, if this helps in the debate or not.

He’s an absolute mystery. Never seems that bothered about anything. Capable of some decent spells as manager but never seems to give two f**ks either way. Not sure he’s ever actually developed a player at any of the clubs he has managed. Feels like a short term fix.

I’m not a fan of Moore, but some of the comments are a bit revisionist; he left us well placed in the play-offs and most of us were gutted and upset at the time, thinking he would have taken us up.

Whiteman went from a journeyman to the best player I have ever seen for us under Moore.

Whiteman was in no way a journeyman under McCann.

Sorry, I'd got my timeline wrong. Was thinking of him under Ferguson.

He was good under McCann, in a better overall midfield. But he matured into a complete holding midfielder under Moore. Everything went through him and he set up rapier-like attacks time after time after time.
