David Moyes got the response he wanted - from his players and the fans

A plane with a 'Moyes Out' banner flew over Old Trafford on Saturday and it's a shame when things like that happen. There must have been some whip-around to afford something like that! Obviously the fans are upset with what's going on, no doubt about that. For Man United to be in the position they're in, having won the title last year, isn't right. But it's not through the want of trying for David Moyes, it just hasn't been happening for him. The true fans though, gave him a round of applause when he went on the pitch. If they didn't want him there they would have turned their backs or not responded but they showed they do want him there. They got the result on the pitch too and once again it was Wayne Rooney doing the business. We thought it wasn't a marriage made in heaven considering the problems he and Moyes had at Everton, but he's their talisman at the moment. Moyes isn't out of the woods yet, though. He's got two massive games against Bayern Munich which could tip things in his favour or turn things against him. Beating Aston Villa 4-1 was a great result but he'll be under no illusions about what's going on.

West Brom-Cardiff was a thriller, but Albion could pay for that late equaliser

KAMMY SAYS: What an amazing game - and a great result for Cardiff. I couldn't believe it. West Brom scored after four minutes of injury time and then conceded in the 95th minute - and that is a cardinal sin. When West Brom scored all the staff and players were celebrating. Certain other managers would say 'that's it, when the ball comes, you launch it out of play, don't play any more football because the game's won'. But they tried to score another goal in added time and got caught on the break - and that could have cost them massively. But well done to Mats Moller Daehli for scoring that crucial equaliser.
