Roberto Martinez Straw Poll

[Chang Elephant]

5th midtable. this place spouts some crap sometimes

 

[Dymak]

I've never, EVER, heard 5th or 6/7th described as midtable in my 30 years of following football. The same 30 odd years that never even had a play off for you "traditionalists" who believe its midtable.

Well I suggest that you keep your ears open and start paying a bit more attention then, as there are even people in this thread who have mentioned hearing it in the media and from fans of other clubs.

Martinez is the right man for the job. No question in my mind.

I think he is too. However, he has to prove himself this season by turning our poor league performances around and hopefully winning a trophy!
An average league position and failure in the remaining two cup competitions will leave us deflated and leave him with a reputation to rebuild.

You really need to back away for the keyboard and take stock of what you're saying, it's absolute unadulterated nonsense and is doing you no favours.

Half of 20 is 10, 10 is the middle of 20. It's really not hard, infact it's very simple.

I've told you that I am coming from a traditional perspective, and not a Key Stage 3 one.

@Woolly Blue you know what to do.

Yeah and traditionally half (mid) of 20 is 10. See it's really not that hard when you think about it.

Yeah, but traditionally, nobody referred to Key Stage 3 mathematics when using the term mid-table.

Ithink it is silly to even think about getting rid of Robbie .however he hasn't done the business up to now but injuries
have to be taken into account.But it must be said that Everton have looked flat and lethargic for of the games this
season and they don't look like changing the style of play until they go behind in games and then strangely they up
their game and look faster stronger and much much better. There is a moral there !!!

I think he will turn the season around but it might not include trophies. The only way I don't see Martinez succeeding is if the money isn't there for players in the next year or 2. This is Everton...so who knows.

Just as an example how much did the unt goal scores with wages cost them????

 

[bicycleheader]

although this thread is a bit silly, the people who keep saying anything negative is KNEE JERK LID need to shut the hell up. It's not knee jerk if it's constantly happening.

It is. Its just called constant kneejerking instead.

 

[davek]

Landslide victory for Martinez.

Not surprising either. Record PL points total; had us playing football last season we thought we'd never see again from players in Everton blue.

Most people aren't swayed by performances in the teeth of a freak injury crisis. I think the vast majority know he's made errors but are seeing also that they are being made in the context of dealing with those injuries (and yes, his own failure to move in the window for defensive players).

He'll be our manager for years and years to come. Thank goodness.

Since when did we start taking what the media and fans of other teams say with anything other than a healthy dose of disdain?
