There has been an untold saying in England that no matter how bad you are performing in the field Manchester United is the only club who offer you enough opportunities to prove your skills, but unfortunately, this theory went wrong in case of former manager Moyes who was sacked in a hotchpotch yesterday. Initially, it was not a socking news since everyone had expected something like this – if not now than few months later, but the way Moyes is now getting the support from all over the world is rather surprising. For example, Association of League Managers has thoroughly criticized United’s behavior to handle the Scott’s career, in fact, association called it the biggest tragedy in United’s long standing history of being with its loyal players/officials. Another high point they are raising is the way manager was informed about his dismissal, coz apparently, he got the news only through media – not from the club which shows unprofessionalism from club bosses’ side. Factually, no one has an issue about why United did it or why they did not offer him enough time to settle down in most challenging playing conditions, but everyone is questioning the secret meeting that took place in the training ground, and without offering former Everton manager a chance to present his defense, they issued their dictatorial verdict.
Specifically targeting this behavior, LMA chief executive Richard Bevan said, “The LMA (League Managers Association) is very disappointed with the nature of David’s departure from Manchester United and to read extensive reports in the press, confirming David’s sacking, before David himself had been spoken to officially by the club.
“Throughout his time at United, David, as he always does, has conducted himself with integrity and professionalism, values that he believes in and that have been strongly associated with the club and its rich tradition. It is therefore sad to see the end of David’s tenure at United being handled in an unprofessional manner.”
Notably, Moyes is the not the man who suddenly got into the fame and became the manager of Alex side, in fact, he had proved his worth to take the high profile job by winning three manager of the year awards before Alex could shortlist him to carry on with his twenty-six-old baby. Appreciating his talent, Bevan added, “David is one of the most talented, knowledgeable and dedicated managers in British football. He has a wealth of experience accumulated in a management career that started when he was 35 and already spans 16 years, with over 800 games in the professional game.”
