It might surprise some people that Sir Alex Ferguson, the
former manager of Manchester United, who actually hand-picked David Moyes to
replace him, returned from Boston, where
he had been at Harvard University, to attend a board meeting called in the wake
of United’s woeful, and latest defeat of a miserable season at Goodison Park on
Sunday. It was revealed he had a signing on the papers that sacked Moyes on
Tuesday morning.
David Moyes was given his marching orders by Manchester
United vice-chairman Ed Woodward after holding crisis talks at the training
ground. Moyes met Woodward at Carrington long before the players were expected
to report to training. The pair talked things through and it was then that
Moyes learnt he would be axed.
United followed that by releasing a 33-word statement on
their website confirming his departure at 8.30am.
It read: “Manchester United has announced that David Moyes
has left the Club. The Club would like to place on record its thanks for the
hard work, honesty and integrity he brought to the role.”
Ryan Giggs will take charge as caretaker until the end of
the season.
It is understood United want to appoint someone with greater
and proven European experience and have put Louis Van Gaal, Carlo Ancelotti and
Diego Simeone on a three-man shortlist.
