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

[Billefc]

could do a better job abroad i reckon, not cut out for premier league management imo

Yea agree, somewhere like Malta or San Marino !

 

[RFUS]

Yeah let's spend £2m to avoid him having to do his job for one more utterly meaningless match.

Football finance and the modern fan right there.

Surely any payments would be the same no matter when we sack him? I.e paying what's left of his contract.

 

[Abertonian]

That quote will haunt him for the remainder of his days - we'll never let him forget it that's for sure.

Was a monumental bit of popcorning from Mr potato head

I hear Luxembourg is nice this time of year

 

[KUEFC09U2]

fyi isn't marcotti one of the most credible journos out there right now?

Why what's he said?

 

[BiggyRat]

He's being paid zzzzzz. So if he's binned he gets more and that's why

Yeah, we know why, but he's only thinking short term. Fiddling while Rome is burning won't get him back to the PL anytime soon.

 

[Thomasc]

I think we should give him until Christmas


















Was what I said at the end of last season

Apparently less beyond a certain point in the summer.

Actually it was to get Bobby sacked. Rafael was just a happy by product.

You just can't come back from losing the entire fanbase.

For that alone he should be sacked.

Leaving him in post is leaving him exposed to the serious levels of abuse that will come his way.

Do you think, perhaps, that this quote has actually prolonged the agony for us all (Kenwright would not want to lose face etc)

If he went after the derby, we may still be in a Cup Final in a week or two

He's just very mawkish. We shouldn't let him forget 99% of everything he says. So cringe.

I just give up.

 

[mythbuster]

Why not just announce he is off after Norwich, save some cash and stop the frenzy of uncertainty

Maybe, just maybe, things have changed.

Nobody in their right mind would dump him without assurances that a new man is as good as in place. Moshiri would look like a bit of a chump if he binned Martinez off, and then struggled to get in his list of targets.
