Private Eye has some terrific Moyesballs in its most recent issue, exposing the fickleness of the football press regarding his rise and fall. Here, though, is my favorite, well-known football luminary Russell Brand, in two articles written in the Guardian almost exactly one year apart: David Moyes is the right man for the job... Fergusons potency must be bestowed... if there could be a son selected from those available it would be David Moyes, stern and stoic, hewn if not from the same DNA, then the same rock, the same nation, the same mythic paradigm. - 21 May 2013 Ferguson... was asked to nominate a successor [and chose] Moyes, a pale imitation of himself, so pale in fact his impotent palpitations could be witnessed on a vascular level as United throbbed to a final flaccid loss at Goodison Park. - 23 April 2014
