Manchester Utd fans have been spoilt by success for so long that a spell in the real world will do them absolutely no harm whatsoever. The majority of supporters who pay their money at the Old Trafford ticket office have given David Moyes their full backing in the difficult days since succeeding Sir Alex Ferguson but Ive of the number of times Ive turned on the television or radio to hear Mr Angry Red from the well known Manchester suburb of London having a go at the bloke whos taken on the task of replacing the irreplaceable. Those people need bringing back down to planet Earth. The success that Fergie delivered over the course of a quarter of a century could not continue indefinitely. Replacing Paul Scholes was a big ask. Ryan Giggs, Rio Ferdinand, Patrice Evra and Nemanja Vidic have all got a year older. This was always going to be a season of transition but that change has been impossible to manage because of injuries to both Rooney and RVP who carried Utd to the title last season. Moysie has moved to address that by signing Juan Mata. Utd will be back and David Moyes is the man to restore their glory. In the meantime a few people might learn what supporting a football club is all about. Ian Holloway.
