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

[jceverton]

Well that goal we conceded is 100% on Coleman...nobody else.

No doubt about it that was very poor by Coleman. What is concerning is the total lack of response after that.

 

[tim cahill]

I don't blame Martinez as much as I blame @davek. Without his persuasive arguments in favour of Martinez he would have been hounded out weeks ago.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

If he loses the semi, I don't think anyone will be defending him.

Cough, splutter, cough.....davek....cough, cough.

 

[rochdaleblue]

Martinez shouldn't be judged on a game to game basis. If we win he has turned the corner, if we lose he should be sacked. He like all managers should be judged on their results over a period of time and the last 2 seasons our league stats are telling for Martinez. Not even an FA cup win should save him from the axe.

 

[flibbyflob]

Is it four league wins total in 5 months?

Will just check

6 I think, 6 months. Wowzas

One of them was a last minute fluke at Newcastle who are awful.

 

[AndyC]

...forgot to inset the word 'away'.

And conveniently forget the EIGHT defeats at home ?

 

[Allezfan]

@ilikecheese is spot on, btw. I'm not saying Martinez is good enough but anyone who honestly thinks he's worse than mike walker, walter smith, theo kelly or cliff britton is taking the mick.

You can show your dislike of him without resorting to 'worst ever' hyperbole.

 

[Toffeelover]

It's this odd one

If you don't want to hear boos, how about winning a few games and moving up the league table.

 

[Mrk]

Love that in the eyes of @davek, all of the outrage is 'faux'.

I mean, it's not like we've been utter turd for 2 seasons, is it?

 

[LAToffee]

I'm hoping we get United mate, so I can cheer us getting knocked out.

Wow! Cheering for us to lose our first chance of silverware in 21 years. That's pathetic.

 

[marsh]

I blame our overly negative fans.

 

[Zezti]

It's still mathematically possible for us to be relegated this season.
Of course, I don't think it will happen. But if we keep dropping points like we have been, it could become a real danger.

 

[DualityNSNO]

If you don't want to hear boos, how about winning a few games and moving up the league table.

No one cares about the league though mate, it's all about everything else, as Dave said so, so it must be true.

 

[ianefc]

Cough, splutter, cough.....davek....cough, cough.

You joined your son yet?

 

[wiggum23]

Is it? Really?

I doubt many would agree that there isn't a large number of people who'd rather see RM out the door rather than win the cup.

I'd rather we won the cup and got him out of the door. The latter would help with the former.
