A lame reply as expected really. You are a blow hard and try to force your opinion on others. When this strategy fails and fails spectaculary, may I add, you resort to trying to implement damage control by offering a meek response, concluding in a peace offering of `ignoring` one another to try to maintain some sort of online credibility.

Nice try but another fail.

In football terms you are desperatly hoping for the final whistle

Taking your points in turn;

You do not know me and have formed an opinion of me based on the fact that I do not agree with your points of view
My points of view irritate you as you disagree with them, may I suggest you look up the definition of internet forum as
it may help you.

Stating that those who want Martinez `in` are naive is my opinion and one that I am entitled to and stand by given the facts of his time in charge, and our current league position. Some agree, some do not that is the nature of debate something that appears to be lost on you. To clarify I believe people who want Martinez in our indeed naive this is my opinion as he seems unable to turn this around.

Please stop trying to soften my approach by substituting my written words to ones of your own choice, you have been found out,
it does not work with me .... give up

You state that you are not offended by the word niave, I dissagree as you raise it almost every posting in reply to me, so admit it you are indeed offended, and would like me to use another word .... one of you`re choice ... sounds familiar .. see the pattern forming here ?

Effective to what? What am I trying to effect? I accept there are those like you who want martinez in, however you struggle to accept some want martinez out, and try desperatly at every opportunity to literally put words in others mouths to soften any written criticism that sits uncomfortably with yourself.

Poking fun at other fans to the best of my knowledge has not happened, debate has. The reality of sitting 12th in the league may well happen therefore why cant we discuss this just because it does not suit you? (see opening sentence)

I think the `in` supporters are naive others may agree, others may not but I dont intend to keep repeating what I have said as it is quite obvious you only listen to what you want to, and try to `beat `into submission any opposing views to your own.

Epic fail

I think its the short term naiveity of the Martinez Out types that is an "Epic Fail".

Band wagon jumping, self entitled Geordie-esque views...

How long since we last won a trophy or were challenging at the top? Decades....

Yet people think we should be in cup finals and top 4.

Bizarre.

I think you are missing the point.

The fact that there is a very realistic chance of dropping to 15th place is already unacceptable to the majority of fans posting in this thread, based on the talent at his disposal.

Your position is based on hope and optimism rather than the harsh reality of our current level.

And there's a very realistic, probably more realistic chance we'll go higher than 12th. Not sure anyone saying this would get away with it without being pulled up pretty sharply and told that hasn't happened yet.

It's not even thinking we should be in the top 4, it's the total lack of fight shown for the majority for me. A lot of blues would like to see us go out there and chase down and pressure teams, a bit of work ethic, something these players have none of.

The man keeps telling us about this "great" squad he has at his disposal, yet he can't get them to work, so I suppose bottom half finishes are sound.

I could have used thorough instead of expansive. Slightly different tone.
To be honest though I didn't read all the way through.
How disgusting is that. It's unacceptable to be honest

I honestly can't see that it is more realistic, but I can accept there is a chance. It still wouldn't appease me though.

Apparently Kenwright will be overseeing the spending with Martinez.

Pretty much underlines the still central role in the football side of matters BK plays.

As soon as we can announce it, a new GK is a must for RM. Once we hear that we know where we stand, I suppose. An understanding with Beogovic looks likely. Then we can strengthen elsewhere.
