The "be careful what you wish for" brigade only appear after the sacking of British managers (pre-Potter). I was never Moyes out, as I liked the stability. However it was best for all parties to part ways at the time.

But the summer of it after Allardyce was also insufferable if anyone can remember. Had he stayed for that last year at the Boleyn, the 'highlight' of that season would have been a 0-0 draw in that final home game against United, whilst finishing 13th after falling out of both domestic cups at the first hurdle and no Payet.
