Manchester United’s worst season since at least 1992 was underscored yesterday by the departure of coach David Moyes. As a business, the club still has few peers in soccer.
Moyes, a 50-year-old picked by fellow Scot Alex Ferguson as his successor, was replaced yesterday, four games before the end of United’s worst Premier League season. The team has lost 11 of its 34 league games under Moyes and is in seventh place, a year after winning a record 20th English title.
