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

[blulouie]

Are we in the final? No.

I appreciate the semis are at Wembley, but......

Let's not count our eggs and that...

Twice meant
Winner in the semi.
& Winner in the final.
I'M sure you knew that tho.

 

[blulouie]

It's all in the past.

Right ho.

Haven't a scooby doo what you're on about.

 

[blulouie]

Point was you said we wasted him .
Mine was it might not be wasted if he scores the winner in the Semi then the Winner in the final.

Just funny that you're only posting about this, that's all. I have a suspicious mind!

I have posted many things over the years, including starting a thread suggesting we take Lukaku on loan where I was ridiculed for wanting him "cause we have Anichebe".

Much as I respect all the lads on here, that experience gave me an insight into the long term predictive instincts of most vocal fans on this Forum.

They can't be set higher than previous ones unless you mean "win the CL".

They can equal the league and cup winning managers, but only top HK with a massive trophy haul or the CL

Targets or expectations?

I'd argue targets must always be set higher.

Expectations. I think think there's been a gulf between the board and the supporters for quite some time.

I'm not sure there's a difference between the two these days.

Seriously, care to elaborate on that? Personally I think to quell some of the discontent, division around the club in recent years, that would be a tremendous thing.

 

[Groucho]

Seriously, care to elaborate on that?

Seriously, not really.

As a supporter and not a board member, my expectation and target are the same thing.

1st

 

[Sentinel]

Fair enough. I'll be honest with you, my expectations haven't matched the board since Colin Harvey. And as for targets, I think the boards have dwindled progressively.

 

[Groucho]

We're not 15th though are we?

We're not far off.

 

[marsh]

We're not far off.

We aren't far off 10th. Be positive now

 

[Groucho]

True but Martinez found us in 5th

 

[marsh]

True but Martinez found us in 5th

Hopefully he'll find us the FA CUP this season!

Ha Ha Ha. The bitter gargoyle McNulty, who's been gunning for Martinez for 18 months, accepting that Martinez is safe as houses and now grasping at straws that Moshiri might intervene and spoil the party. What a nobhead he is.

Surrenders being accepted from now on in lads after that...

McNulty is saying what we already know to be spot on.

Moshiri is doing what anyone reasonable man in his position would do... and that's to wait.
It keeps Kenwright living in his delusional world of "I'm still running this club" and buys him time to justify his next move.

Martinez has proven he is capable of getting a team relegated and winning the FA Cup at the same time (what a man), so Moshiri isn't keen to rock the boat just yet.

You don't became a billionaire by believing old mate Kenwright and the smoke he blows up your clacker about Martinez.

Mr Morshir is sharpening his Shamshir!
