Happy birthday and farewell to David Moyes!
It’s West Ham manager David Moyes‘s 61st birthday today. In an article on the KUMB website Paul Walker writes that the foreseeable conclusion of the Scot’s tenure is “a sad and disrespectful end”.
With only four wins in 2024 and almost certainly losing out on qualifying for Europe it is almost inevitable that West Ham is looking for a fresh start and hence will not renew the manager‘s contract. But parting ways with the most successful Hammers manager since John Lyall, and that is David Moyes without any doubt, should be done in a respectful and dignified way.
Let’s hope the players will recover from the Europa League exit and from the 2-5 drubbing by Crystal Palace last weekend, which meant that West Ham have virtually gone out of Europe twice within the space of one week. I very much hope that the players who have been on an incredible and massive journey with their manager since the beginning of 2020, for four and a half years now, are up for the last games of the season and won’t let the season just peter out. The manager does deserve that!
I will bid my personal farewell to David Moyes by visiting the game against Chelsea away.
Matches left in the PL for West Ham: Liverpool (H), Chelsea (A), Luton (H), Manchester City (A).
