I didn't hear any boos this year mate. In fact we have been unbeaten in the league since December, and what should be an easy win this week that will stretch to March. After martinez first season what was his longest unbeaten run?

There is a difference between drawing a game and losing it. More so when there is only 20 minutes left and a 2 goal cushion against a team playing their third game in over a week, or when there is seconds left on the clock, twice.

When a manager is sacked for not finishing in the top half twice then your argument is a little invalid tbh , that's why he lost his job.

And how many clubs sign players as good as lukaku on a regular basis? How many have the kopite signed recently? How many have Spurs signed recently? How many have Chelsea signed recently? Even the fact we are selling martinez signings as a point of priority and massively reducing the squad size as a result shows how bad the majority of them actually were in the end.

Was that the one when we were down to 10 men for two thirds of the game? Devil's in the detail I always find. And the famed Bournemouth 'defeat' - actually a draw away from home.

It applies to all of us in here tbf

The horse died a long time ago

I'm NEA about it to be honest, but I don't get why people come into a thread and almost complain that it's still going on, when they can choose just not to enter the thread and get on with other things
 

Alan Stubbs in an interview with the Liverpool Echo spoke about what it was like working with Martinez when he was managing the u21's.This quote stood out for me.

Roberto let me get on with the job, left to my own devices with it,” he says.

“He had his own people there and that was them, he didn’t really allow anybody else to get close, so that was a closed shop and everybody else probably felt a little distant.

“If he wanted an opinion I would give it but sometimes I gave my opinion and he didn’t like it because it was too truthful – if you don’t want an opinion don’t ask for one if you don’t like the answer.

“He left, there are reasons for that, but Everton, touch wood, have got the right man in place now with Ronald Koeman.”

That bit in bold really does expose Roberto Martinez as a clueless fraud who resented any member of the coaching staff offering different opinions.Instead of taking the advice he was being given on board he would ignore it because it was hurting his massive ego.Great dig by Stubbs that.Don't ask for an opinion if the answer isn't to your liking.Going by what Alan Stubb is saying Martinez would keep the yes men on his coaching staff close to him and isolate people like Stubbs who would contradict him on footballing matters.Out of sight and out of mind as they say.

Cannot believe this man was associated with and held a position of authority at our club, what a grim, bleak time.

Alan Stubbs is a pure bell to be fair.
