Revealed the identity of this top manager has he then?
You can be sure any successor to martinez will NOT be a truly top class manager.
Im not sure why people bother having serious conversations with Davek, just stick to taking the pi55 out of him. There's plenty of material.

Martinez is 'head and shoulders above trash like Howe and Hughes' - makes no sense
Think the first thing the board need to do this week dave is, just point out to Martinez that talking utter pony in his pre/post match interviews isn't helping his cause.
Stubborn eh - moi!??
Everton’s position in the bottom half of the table is so chronic nobody should be too surprised if it brings down the guillotine on Roberto Martínez’s time as manager.
Everton are 32 points behind Leicester and if the charge against Martínez is that he is too wedded to one way of thinking, too lax when it comes to defensive structure and too damn stubborn to do anything about it, it is certainly not eased by a story I heard in the last few days about his time managing Wigan Athletic.
You might remember their 9-1 defeat against Tottenham at White Hart Lane in November 2009, a record defeat for Wigan, a few months after Martínez was put in charge. What is not so widely known is that in the dressing room afterwards Martínez told his players – whose mood, it is fair to say, was collective bewilderment – to continue playing exactly the same way. Wigan duly conceded 79, 61, 62 and 73 goals in his four seasons while Everton are far too vulnerable in the same way. Martínez undoubtedly has qualities but, equally, it is a damning indictment that Leicester’s seven clean sheets from their past nine league games is as many as Everton have managed since September.
Martínez is singled out because of the widespread belief this is Everton’s finest squad for many years but, in fairness, they are far from the only club who could learn a thing or two from the way Ranieri has set up his team.

He's been more than clear that although he doesn't know exact figures, and exact timings, he knows that a top class manager far and beyond the media names will take over before the start of next season, and be backed with serious cash.

You know what this thread really felt like it was crying out for? Someone to come on and bore everyone to tears by persisting with wind ups, that's what the thread really needed.

...we have a billionaire in tow now. How realistic would it be that he cant pay Martinez up? If this board were about to cave in to a mob holding bedsheets they'd have brought a caretaker in by now and paid RM off. It doesn't make sense that they'd let this linger.
Alright lads.
How's the rebellion going?
It doesn't look like the men in charge are taking any notice of the County Road Luftwaffe does it?
Godspeed and Namaste, long live the King !
Why he isn't permanently banned is beyond me

So in a way if they're was a chance of mourinho coming here you would ditch Martinez then ? Or your actually saying that Martinez isn't a proven winner and still under pelegrini ?
