Mr X

Such a nothing signing doesn't offer any more than AA and that's saying something

The dribbling is on!

They'd have no vocal cords left 😂

It's no better than lump it forward football and at least that has a chance of a goal or two

Why did the club think his brand of anti football is the answer? Cheap I guess

At this level he's shocking

Well that was dire

He's a natural

We are so bland and boring to watch it's unreal, nailed on relegation candidates and we will finish dead bottom

Need to send that to Martin possession doesn't equal goal scoring chances!

Martin can fucking do one if we don't get a result in the next two games!

Was coming and that's usually enough as we just don't score

Back to tippy tappy fannying around

Looking like our usual selves already uncreative and useless near goal 😂

Agreed why has the striker situation been so awful? They thought an permanently injured Ross Stewart who was pretty much injured when we signed him was the answer! Along with tall pall another awful signing and sullemana

Doesn't matter who comes in they will still have the shitiest strikers in the premier league that won't score anywhere enough to keep us up and that's the problem. Not one ten goal striker at the club let alone a 20

I hope your right, I'm grateful for what Martin has done he has to get credit for the turnaround from the championship but I just don't see him as the right person to scrape survival at this level he doesn't have either the tactical nous or the capability to coach a defence and is way to inflexible in his style beliefs. If we are totally honest we could have done with a couple of seasons in the championship and that's looking like what we will be getting

Not sure it is at risk when the club have committed so fully to him not sure they will take any action before Xmas

So how many games is fair with no points on the board? 10? 15? When do you say this isn't good enough. To me he should be given the next three games nothing from those and he has to be on his way surely?

That's the problem they will give him that long by which time our fate will pretty much all be decided the owners know we got lucky and we're the worst of the teams that came up I don't think they have any huge expectation that we are going to stay in this league

So basically it doesn't matter wether we fanny around with the ball at the back we still make mistakes and leak goals, it's clear RM is a very poor coach defensively from the amount of goals all his teams concede wherever he's been.

If there's still no points on the board after the Ipswich and Bournemouth games as I suspect there might be things will get difficult for Martin, the club won't take any action if they can help it though as it makes them look a complete laughing stock after offering a new contract (to someone completely unproven at premier league level) and then sacking him after seven or eight games! It would show they've learnt a thing (which they haven't) I can easily see him still being here at Xmas and us cut adrift at the bottom

A signing that reeks of desperation he's looked no better than AA and that's saying something

Tall paul looked a shocking carthorse when he did actually come on for us not quite ali dia levels but bad, think they saw us coming on that transfer, so many bad signings saints have gambled on

Russell Martins interview Interviewer: What's your analysis of that game russell? RM: We played them off the park for 30 mins and our possession was world class Interviewer: And the second half? RM: We were so brave so brave we just have to keep doing what we are doing and believe in it Interviewer: It's not the ideal start though is it? No points and 8 goals against while only scoring one, any idea when it will start clicking? RM: Football isn't always about goals or winning games surely you know that?
