Should Martinez be sacked? (Post-Hull poll)

[Groucho]

I've resisted the Owen Coyle shouts to spare the children.

But I can say this there is an element of agenda going on with certain posters.

The quoting 'IMWT' earlier and the irony of it considering the same ones wanted Martinez and generated the 'school of science is on its way back' song is not lost on me.

I like him, I hope he turns this round, I'm against sacking him at present.

If it gets Mike Walker bad though, he has to go. The club are far more important than one man. But for the time being, I'd give him a bit more time.

Of course not. Far too soon to even talk about sacking him. Last season showed what he is capable of, now that he is struggling, he deserves the opportunity to solve it.
I did say last season (when everyone was in love with him and his brown shoes - how short memories we have sometimes) that the test of a great manager is one who can find a way to get a team out of a crisis - let him have his chance to prove he can do it.

How is it nonsense.
He is in charge the buck stops with him.

The players are the ones on big bucks.

The bucks literally stop with them when they don't perform

To how they are paid to

We are getting worse though.
How long would you give him?

This year : We're crap cause the players want Big Unsy in so they can play golf or something. They take the blame, not Martinez.

Last year : Martinez got us our highest points total ever. He takes the credit, not the players.

It can't get any worse than it is.

But the players have a responsibility as they've not performed.

Not challenging second balls.


Lazy attitudes on one or two

 

[Allezfan]

The players should be more professional.

We pay their wages. Not Martinez

We pay martinez' too. If players could just play, he isn't needed.

 

[chicoazul]

Massively disrespectful from young Garbutt. The best thing that could happen to him would to be summoned to Martinez's office tomorrow to explain his actions in front of Martinez and his entire coaching team. If Martinez is serious about keeping the dressing room he should then order Garbutt stripped and BUMMED with Dennis Lawrence and co finishing off with a disciplinary bukkake.

Then we can all move on.

So what does martinez get paid for letting them do as they please.
What do you think a managers job is?

We should just not have a manager, it seems.

The players decide themselves whether they want to win or not.

 

[marty mcfly]

We won't turn it around unless we get a winger and drop Barry.

The question is will Roberto stick to his guns or accept this before its too late.

It can get a lot worse.
So if the players are lazy does martinez just ignore it

 

[chicoazul]

Just read a retweet from Luke Garbutt which seems a bit disrespectful. This is problem here, it's clear the players aren't playing for the manager. What we need is for Martinez to show his authority by bringing Luke out before the West Ham game for warm up and then drag him by his fancy hair to the centre circle before lowering his slacks and SODOMISING Luke in front of a baying Goodison and then dropping him for Oviedo for the game itself.

Luke will then learn from this lesson and eventually play well, gaining six assists before the season is through.

If we got to the stage where we were looking likely to go down, then you would have to seriously consider sacking him. I still don't think it will get to that point, and when we do climb out of the current slump, he will be a better manager for it.

If we leave it there is a chance it will be too late.
I think the crossroads is now especially with the players not playing for him and the window upon us
