No surprise, they've wanted him gone for months. They need to get out of that league soon or risk becoming another Boston.

Looking at the effort put in by the West Ham players yesterday they had already decided they wanted rid of Moyes.

And now West Ham confirm Moyes will leave at the end of the season. It all seems a little grubby to me how that change of manager has played out. Could easily have just played out the last couple of games and let him walk away at the end of his contract without the obvious replacement that's been appointed before the decision to make the change has been announced. He did after all win a European trophy only last season

West Ham imo often come across as a bit deluded. They and their fans seem to think they are a big club. They're not - more of a mid to lower half PL table side, would be more my take.
In fairness they've got company with a lot of the other Johhny come lately outfits such as Chelsea, Spurs and Leeds who didn't even enter the football league until 1905, 1908 and 1920 respectively. West Ham's inaugural football league season was 1919.

But there was a Leeds City FC, 1904 til 1919 in the league, but hoofed out due to financial probs!

It's being reported that Hull City have sacked Liam Rosenior. That'll be the team he got to 7th in the Championship just gone!!!

Last non league club to do it I believe.

Indeed there was. I have a feeling they were a completely different entity to Utd. (unless there was a bit of the Glasgow Rangers creativity going on) but their demise was certainly directly responsible for the birth of the Leeds we know today.

That makes no sense at all, Hull are much better under Rosenior than they’ve been for years, you do wonder about the reasonable expectations of some owners don’t you?
