Rothwell down injured. Being booed by his own fans.

Whilst down injured? Fucking savage 😂

[coalman]

15 minutes left to salvage his unbeaten record in the league. Though, to be fair, Rangers are knocking on the door.

(Obviously cue a long ball that bypasses everyone for the second)

[Midfield_General]

Pen Hearts. 2-0. Game over.

Ibrox empties on 83 minutes.

Penalty to Hearts

[LiberalCommunist]

I'm still devastated he didn't sign for Leicester. At least then I could enjoy it, while benefitting from it. This feels a little dirty now. 

[Saint_clark]

😂😂😂

[Turkish]

2-0 Hearts boos ringing out

they were so brave, so proud of them, trust the process etc 

[Sheaf Saint]

0-2, but at least Rangers have 67% possession.

[coalman]

Butland saves the penalty. Shankland puts in the rebound 0-2

[AlexLaw76]

0-2

Trust the process, embrace the pain. It will be so beautiful in the end.

[coalman]

Cut to shots of Ibrox emptying with 10 minutes left.

[trousers]

Selles or Martin to win ex-Saints manager sack race...? To close to call...?

[RedArmy]

Their new manager is going to have a ton of scar tissue to deal with. 

[Toussaint]

Eee eye eee eye eee eye o, under the bus his players will go.

This one has "would've been different but for refereeing decisions" written over it. And in fairness you could question the three key moments in the game

- first goal involved a handball in the buildup

- Rangers goal being disallowed was borderline

- Penalty was a bit soft

Throw in hitting the woodwork twice and it's easy to spin this as a "one of those days"

"Martin, get tae fuck

Martin, Martin get tae fuck"

Rings out around Ibrox from the few home fans who are still there

I think at times like this, when what we are talking here about is a man's job, his livelihood, his reputation and maybe his career, what you have to remember is all of this is all absolutely as funny as fuck.

[goodymatt]

Just appears to be snowballing for Martin, can’t see him surviving this. 5 games without a win, is it their worst start ever?

[Saint86]

I do not miss this 😆

One thing that's guaranteed with Martin is record breaking football. Just a shame he has to restart his unbeaten run.

[Midfield_General]

Rangers own fans singing "sacked in the morning"

Commentator: "Rangers are absolute rubbish" 

Hearts hit the post

FT. 0-2. Hearts first win at Ibrox in 18 attempts. Rangers booed off. 

Played 5, won zero, and Rangers are third from bottom.

[AlexLaw76]

Taters..."listen to that" as thousands signing "Martin, get ter fuck"

Hearts hit the post, FT

 

LOLOLOL

[miserableoldgit]

Ummm......oops......

[coalman]

Martin showing incredible athleticism to get down the tunnel there.

If only that were true, he has been and will be rewarded beyond most of our wildest dreams for abject failure. 

[sockeye]

Surely he's regressed since being with us? From finishing 4th in a 3-horse race to 10th in a 2-horse race.

In reflection he had a lot of good fortune with us

[bangkoksaint]

Weak , woke , slow , boring , talent is there , but in a shite system with the most hated manager in Rangers history ...get yourself tea fuck
 

They aren’t happy but I think this poster from The Blue Sea has cheated and just copied this from our forum!

[The Kraken]

Genuinely can’t believe just how bad he has made them. Kind of hope he gets a win soon so it keeps him in place.

It was my worst nightmare !!!

[skintsaint]

He wont survive this loss i feel.

[gurru991]

Surely he will be fired on Monday morning !!

Surely no other club will hire him after this.

Who or what can he blame this time? 

 

And the answer is: the ref

The man is unbelievable 

Does he ever, ever think that he might possibly have to accept that some aspect of his team’s results are his responsibility?

He only manages a process, the players just need to embrace it.

Oh I don’t know, he’ll have his pick of clubs in Sheffield 😂

Ok, this is interesting from the Rangers forum.

 

Quote

He got asked if he would resign and he said well i wasn't wanted in the first place

 

[Dr Who?]

He’s a gonna, and this will damage hope of getting another job even in the Championship. Sheffield United should be grovelling to Wilder to come back.

I understand that even Sheffield FC are not interested.They feel that it's too big of a step up for him.

Sheffield Football Club is an English football club, currently based in Dronfield, Derbyshire. They compete in the Northern Counties East LeaguePremier Division, on the ninth level of the English football pyramid.

Fucking hell. This is about the worst press conference I've seen from Martin.

"High"lights:
- I won't resign
- 3 poor refereeing decisions
- It's not the same team we see on Thursday and Friday in training
- It is what it is
- It doesn't affect me personally
- "Do you agree how bad we are? They are scared...".... snaps back "That's not tactics mate. You've said it yourself, they're scared"
- "There's been no evidence of that in the league at all. About training". Martin "You only see the outcome at the end of the week. It's not a big tactical problem. It's psychological"

Cuts off after 4m30. The press were noticeably going after him there. Not far to go to get to a full Nathan Jones meltdown. 

[Galway saint]

Just a poor coach who has been found out 

[Southner]

Just like he does when he gets home to Pinder, he needs to play with two up front.
