The continuing brave, fun adventures of Russell Martin

[Osvaldorama]

He’s an idiot.

I can’t believe they’ve managed to find someone that could make us even worse.

Absolutely gutless, pathetic, clueless, embarrassing, abysmal team.


Wrong line up, wrong tactics just unimaginably awful

 

[thereisonlyoneno7]

I'm not Martin out yet.

However, I would not miss a beat if he was replaced.

Yeah. That's where I am. Same bullshit next game and I might swing.

 

[Osvaldorama]

Yeah. That's where I am. Same bullshit next game and I might swing.

I honestly don’t even want to change managers again as I don’t trust them to select the next one.

But what the **** was he thinking tonight? Every single saints fan knew that line up was going to get us beaten. Every single one.

He’s on a totally different planet.

Mate, I'd take me over him. I'd take you over him. I'd take Ian over him. I'd even take Ides over him, who would probably pick the Pompey XI. But I also want to give him one more game.

Out …………….experiment not working.

 

[SaintElliot]

I hate changing managers when you're into a season. No pre season, new tactics to learn etc. I'd give him another three league games.

 

[......loading......]

I want him out. We were in the pub when the team came in and we were all shocked. Nobody competent picks that team.

 

[Pelletron]

Very rarely want a manager out so early, but can't see this going anywhere, even if we win our next few games. He's on his way to derailing this season, so my preference would be for SR to act quickly, with the caveat (as mentioned) that their track record at choosing managers is the worst I've ever seen at Saints. I don't like non-adaptable managers, and so far I'm seeing someone not willing to change anything or learn from his mistakes.

 

[Osvaldorama]

Never thought I’d say this but I’d be happy to press the Allardyce button.

Just get some ****ing common sense and some basics back at the club. Seriously sick of all these pricks thinking they’re reinventing football. Ankersen, Martin, Selles etc. just **** off. How can they be this blind & naive?

Neil warnock available after leaving Huddersfield. Literally can’t do any worse

 

[Libby]

A bit premature imo. I thought in some ways we were actually a fair bit better tonight and were also a tad unlucky too.

That said i don't particularly have any faith in him turning it round. The possession is far too slow and he's never shown the ability to coach a defence which will ultimately be his downfall.

I'm concerned that some players aren't fully bought in either and as someone on here said the other day he's got no past achievements to draw on as evidence it can work.

I don't think a change right now would be beneficial tbh as think we're likely to get another stats/philosphil managerm

**** off Sam Allardyce

 

[Archers Road]

**** thread imo. We’re halfway through September ffs.

 

[Saints Fan4Life]

I want to give him time. I really do.

But we don't have time. If its not working, we need to be ruthless with a decision.

Our best players will not accept another year in the championship. This is our best shot of promotion and we're currently squandering and wasting it, when really, we should be up there leading the pack (on paper at least)

I think another 3 games is fair to see if he's truly flopped or if we're just having a bad run.

That'd give him Boro Leeds and Stoke with any potential caretaker/ new manager having Rotherham at home.

 

[Saints Fan4Life]

Trust the process everyone is screaming on Twatter.

**** off.

 

[Osvaldorama]

Are we still paying Nathan Jones off?

Reckon he’s better than this charlatan

 

[LincolnSaint]

Trust the process everyone is screaming on Twatter.

**** off.

Is that another ****e club soundbite like the "we march on" bollocks or something the posters decided themselves?

Besides can you imagine the calibre of manager SR can attract? They'd pick someone utterly batshit. Martin is clearly **** but we'd just get someone ****ter. Until these utter ****ing clowns leave this circus it doesn't really matter who the guy in the red coat and top hat is.

SR out before Martin out. (Doesn't really roll of the tongue but I'm working on it )

 

[Shandy_top_89]

I am seething at him, but it is too soon.

That said he doesn’t have long, my personal bare minimum for Saints is 6th at Christmas, if he can’t get on trajectory for that imminently then I will be joining.

No excuse with this squad.
