The depth to which Martinez has taken us is summed up in your post. He has almost destroyed our hope. I expected Leicester City to beat us comprehensively yesterday. I usually can talk myself into believing that we have a chance against anyone no matter how poor we have been, but not now, not with Martinez at the helm.
Last week's win was a bonus, beating Bournemouth at home is a bonus, how far we have fallen.
I voted that we would get more than 47 points this season, I thought we would get a win and a draw over the next two games, now I am not so sure. If Sunderland beat us on Wednesday who amongst us would be surprised, would most of us not just shrug our shoulders and be thankful we had just one more game to play this season.
I note that almost 5% have voted to keep Martinez, I am hoping that they are non Everton supporters but if they aren't I would urge them to read the posts of other supporters, Martinez has not only taken us to new depths in terms of performance, he has taken away the hope we had. That is his biggest fault, supporters don't believe we can get a result. Some even want us to get beaten in order to speed his sacking, I have seen the posts on here lambasting anti- Martinez fans for suggesting they don't mind if we lose provided we sack Martinez, I never want to see Everton lose but it is something I have got used to over the last two years.
I had hoped Martinez would have gone by now and we would have put in place, albeit temporarily, management which would have given us back a wee bit of the hope we are famed for, but it is not to be.
Martinez, the man who robbed the most optimistic supporters of hope.
