Roberto Martinez Discussion - Including Live Poll (Poll Reset 1st May)

[davek]

Probably another 30 years till somebody gets the 16 points Villa have got this season as well.

Anyway, thanks for the first season Roberto, if only you didnt throw it all away over the last 24months, hope he enjoy the SPL.

La Liga or Serie A for RM now.

He'll win something again before we will.

lol

You do realise by calling them idiots you've given them more 'grief' than any of them fans gave him.

Behave Ian.

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha. You'll learn how impressive it is mate. It took 30 years to get a points total that matched the team of the 1980s points totals, and it'll be another few years before it's even got near to again.

Hate to disagree with you Dave but if Martinez gets another year I think we could get 72+ points in the Championship the following year, what with the extra games and all.

Whatever the season 72 points is blistering for us.

I sincerely doubt well get near it again anytime soon. But that will be the new managers task and he'll stand and fall on how close he can get near to it.

But Dave, hes not getting sacked for getting 72 points, hes getting sacked for 2 years of regression.

Hi Davek,

I'm sure you've probably answered this question before but what would it take in your eyes for Martinez to be deservingly let go?

 

[RickyMartin]

Imagine sitting here trying to wind up Everton fans.

Imagine.

Honestly hope we get routed 64-0.

No it would not. That level.of rationality leads me to believe you are actually him.

Probably, but wont ever win a thing in this league.

 

[mutley]

Why would someone even put a tenner on him though lol!

Don't know but looking who is available i've got a horrible feeling we'll all be underwhelmed by who we end up with.

If we won the league on say 71 points, would you see that as a lesser achievement?

So you now think Martinez will leave?

Oh just bugger off with your "72 points" rubbish. Did we win anything by getting 72 points? No. Did we win anything by reaching 2 semi-finals? No. Do we look like winning anything under Martinez? No. So having 72 points in a season where our team was based off of Moyes' platform is meaningless.

Do you see West Ham fans bragging about how they've got 59 points?

You are a bit kneejerk there mate. I reckon this is a trait of many on this forum. I'm guessing you are quite young and imbued of Gen Y's predilection toward 'instant gratification'. Us holder heads cut a manager a bit more slack...say 3 years?
I would genuinely hope that the new fella gets that time to show his wares, before you young hotheads 'hold his feet to the fire'.

Yeah, Erm, what evs dude.
