  4. Stick with him, he'll turn it round

    I don’t for a second think we have a chance of surviving under Martin. I also don’t think we have much of a chance now no matter who was in charge due to the fixtures we’ve wasted. I’m sure there is some stats out there that show “easiness” of fixtures played or something, the last time I saw Opta had us at like 96% relegated and that was before the Wolves game I think

    It's from the twaternet source Alan Blackmore so may or may not happen.

    Cheers, like most stuff about the club - smoke and mirrors and mainly not true.

    8 now. He’s gaining popularity. Riding the crest of a wave.

    He has to be done after that. I mean should have been already but now he has to be. His biggest flaw is being exposed big time, his inability to (I’m not going to call it refusal because at this point I genuinely just believe he just cant) change his tactics or adapt to situations. It’s clear now that he just doesn’t have the skill to learn a second ****ing way of playing. Which is insane. The only time we seem to look confident is when we aren’t actually near the back.

    We could/should have lost by 10! **** playing the suicidal football. Villa are going to be well up for it on Saturday. I thought before tonight, we might have won, but no longer. We are going to get hammered if he doesn't change the style

    I think Nigel Adkins got sacked after conceding 5 at home against Chelsea. The difference is that I have no confidence that Rasmus or Henrik will have the balls to sack Russell Martin.

    He makes Nathan jones look like sir Alex Ferguson

    That’s how ****ing bad this mental buffoon is.

    Didn’t we draw away to Chelsea? I thought there was an upturn in results before NA was sacked?

    Yeah the draw at Stamford Bridge was Nigel's last game. They scored 5 in an FA Cup match at St Marys in January.

    Worst part is, West Ham and Wolves will both move quicker than us. If one of them takes Rohl, I’ll send Rasmus a flaming **** in the post.

    Don’t think he’ll be on either of their shortlists

    Good. That means we can still get him then.
