THB out next game too, guess we are going to see Nathan Wood against Chelsea.

Amen Rev

Gotta hit the target, there Archer

Ah well

Downes is a second yellow waiting to happen

True, but the alternatives are even less appealing

That's Downes out next game

No wonder he looks so smug in his interviews.

I guess you could argue keeping Martin here suggests that they think all is well.

Exactly. The silence says more than anything.

Maybe they do or don't, but just pretending everything in the garden is rosy is pretty insulting to the fans.

This is precisely why I didn't mention them by name. I would no doubt be told by them that they aren't Martin fanboys/supporters or whatever and the perpetual cycle of arguments would continue to ensure. Am sick of arguing with other fans about the state of the club and Martin. Supporting us at the moment is no fun, going to games feels like a chore. Something has to change, but those in charge don't seem to give a shit what happens.

I think the posters you are talking about are windup merchants. Either that or they have became so embellished in keeping up a charade that they can't back down now.

There are 274 pages on this thread, am sure you could find the fanboys if you looked. I've no interest in getting into a dick swinging competion with you, so if you want the last word, be my guest.

Am not interested in naming names, so no I won't . And I know what the reaction from you will be, so don't bother yourself by typing it.

Well done on proving these posters do exist. I think that there quite a few on here who would agree.

I would suggest you've been on here long enough to identify the posters that seem to want to defend Martin and the way we play. Even though I suspect that they are on the windup. I personally don't care what Martin does outside Staplewood or St Mary's, what I do care is what he does on the training ground and out on the pitch. As you rightly say what we should dislike is the tactics, team selection and game management. These three aspects are all I'm interested in, and at present, he is failing to deliver on both results and performances. If SR are hellbent on continuning along this path of destruction, then St Marys is very likely to come across as being every bit as toxic on matchdays when Jones was here. As for next season, can you really see Martin still being here should we go down with the lowest points total in PL history?

Certain posters are of the opinion that Martin walks on water and can do no wrong and would quite happily clap along if he was here again next season. I'm saying that if our relegation is going to be as horrific as it appears it is going to be, I think the majority would question why he would be given another season, even if we were in the Championship.

I guess we will just have to see how that pans out, should we continue down this path of complete insanity.

Sport Republic can fuck off if Martin is still in charge next season and we are back in the Championship. Am not sure what kind of cuckoo land they are living in if they think fans will just roll up again next season and accept him still being here. Especially if we end up going down with a record low points total.

We are on course for the worst season in Premier League history, its absolute lunacy that he is still here now, let alone next season.

Guess he saw it first hand with Kompany last season at Burnley.

Am at the point now where I don't care who comes in to replace him.

I think being next to Lucy Pinder would help
