Lee On Solent Saint

On here for sure, not sure about the fans as a whole. Where I was sat on Saturday there wasn't too much hate directed at Martin. I think he was fortunate that the ref was so shite, it deflected the crowd reaction away from him.

Pantomime

He cannot and should not be in charge for that game.

If he is still here after relegating us, SR are even bigger twats than I had them down for. The guy is splitting the fan base. By the end of the season, St Marys will be full of away fans only.

Fuckin statistics again. Football is played on a green pitch, not a spreadsheet. The best way to defend is to ensure that you don't leave anybody free, every player should be marking another. None of this zonal bolliocks. Leave a player between the halfway line and penalty box, someone with a bit of speed who can run onto any clearences, give the opposition something to think about. Don't care if its not fashionable, its effective.

Don't forger getting behind projects etc too.

It wasn't just happening for the goalscoring corner

No really different to taking off your best player and replacing him with Smallbone.

So, you can hear what Martin says can you? From the touchline?

The only reason we throw points away in the last seconds of injury time is because tactially we aren't set up right. Defending set pieces, especially corners this season as been pathetic. The blame lies squarely with Martin when it comes to tactial set up. You have to be on the wind up if you think any differently.

But if your saying Martin is making them better players, why would they want to leave? If the players love Martin so much, why would anyone of them want to leave? Your painting Martin to look like some kind of footballing god/genius.

These exiciting players won't be here next season if we get relegated. Or do you think they are going to stay in the Championship because of Martin?

But fouls for shirt pulls are given on every other area of the pitch. Wasn't Dibling booked today for tugging back one of their's?

Why was Smallbone the right player to bring on? He can't run or tackle. Absolute waste.

I don't. He managed best part of 60 minutes without committing another foul. Showed a lot of maturity.

Fuck's sake, the whole team were shit at Bournemouth, if you based that concept we wouldn't have fielded a team today.

Do you not think the tide turning was a direct result of taking Fernades off and bringing on Smallbone?

The ref was shite, but he wasn't on the fix. Just incompetent.

I don't think I've disliked a Saints manager as much as Martin. Even Branfoot wasn't as bad as this twat.

About as sure as I am that you always try to pick an arguement with anyone whoever posts on here

Yes. You obviously think differently, so no surprise there.

That's half Martin's problem, he wants to be liked, wants to be everyone's best mate on the squad.

Surely he cannot survive a home defeat against Leicester?

Church

Am not even sure he believes we will win
