    The lad has been shipped out on loan to Crystal Palace for the season, seems a strange one for a 23 year old centre back who is 'destined to play for England'. Do you think this kid will ever make it above the Championship?

    Here we go again, only coming out his hole to bash Aaron Martin - Seriously, every post I see of yours, its slating Aaron Martin? Did he sleep with your missus or something?

    He's gone out on loan to gain the experience he needs, rather than sit around and wait for cup ties

    He'll be back, Adkins has already all but confirmed it - it's for his development

    Possibly - Adkins has always said Martin is a long-term project. There is no hurry as far as I can see - if he gets a full season under his belt and comes back twice the player; he will be starter for us. Centre backs don't tend to peak untiln their late 20's in any case. If Palace are paying his wages; we win all round. Hope he makes the grade; I used to watch him when he played for Eastleigh alongside Tom Jordon (son of Jo). Have always thought he has done well when he's played. His problem is that he is right footed so he is always in Fonte's shadow.

    Surely he's intentionally trying to annoy people.

    Did anyone actually say he was destined for England.

    I feel he's more likely to fail to escape the championship than he is to play for England

    At what point does this article slate AAron Martin, i was just asking for peoples opinions on his loan move? I think he is useless, but this article doesn't slate him.

    He`s always looked good to me when I`ve seen him. He seems quite quick, and he seems to love playing for Saints, and as mentioned previously, he`s never let us down - let`s cut him some slack.

    In any case, "Only being good enough to play in the Championship" isn't exactly something to be ashamed of.

    But it is showing what an overstatement it was for other Saints fans to say he will play for England.

    We don't want to throw the kid in the deep end of the Premier League.

    BS South to Premier League is a huge step; especially in two years...

    no but you're obvious dislike of the lad is tiresome and boring. I think you should seriously consider not even mentioning his name on a post. Post about him in a year when we know if he'll be coming back as part of the squad.

    Move on to another subject, just for a change.

    Must admit SS11's comments on the single player seem to border on an idée fixe. Martin appears to be the sole subject the poster is interested in.
