We consider the possibility of constructing realistic Higgsless models within the context of deconstructed or moose models. We show that the constraints coming from the electro-weak experimental data are very severe and that it is very difficult to reconcile them with the requirement of improving the unitarity bound of the Higgsless Standard Model. On the other hand, with some fine tuning, a solution is found by delocalizing the standard fermions along the lattice line, that is allowing the fermions to couple to the moose gauge fiel0008.
