Russell Martin

[Wsaint]

Was never anti Martin but fucking hell, put him out his misery 😂

Someone on the Rangers forum said something like

"Someone needs to get Patrick Stewart's phaser and set it to sack"

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

That's not enough if you don't chuck it into the box.

Ok, this is interesting from the Rangers forum.

 

 

Not really. The fans never wanted him from day 1.

[Saint Fan CaM]

His reputation really is starting to proceed him now. The destroyer of pro football teams!

[gurru991]

He is one extremely dislikable person . The Rangers fans really don't deserve this.

Very true. Would need to make contact with the upright.

I'm actually starting to be impressed with how he's managing to stay so arrogantly sure of himself and believe that it's everyone else's fault.

I did find it quite amusing that he was asked the question was he going to resign.... you could see the pound signs light up in his eyes as he said no. 

[Saint_clark]

Oof they weren't holding back.

Previous managers have apparently had something similar to a six month salary clause upon being sacked, so £600k for Martin. Not too mad a figure if Rangers did want to get rid. 

I guess back room staff etc. will bump that up.

I wish we'd put six month clauses in the last 7 managers we had.....

The takeaway there is that we should always expect disappointment to ensue.

[LiberalCommunist]

Surely Bonnie Blue is a Portsmouth fan.

The way that bucket gets handed around so readily........

[OttawaSaint]

He got away with it with our journos going easy on him. These Rangers fellas are pulling no punches!

The imbalance in Scotland is so great that it's almost impossible not to have success of some sort at Rangers or Celtic. 

He's finally being outed as one of the worst tacticians of all time. 😆

Blackmore should watch that & fucking hang his head. Went way too easy on the fraud. Same applies to our nods, and the board. He fucked our club good and proper, fucked some players careers, all for a vanity project.

Classic Martin anti football

"Martin decided to start Canada centre-half Cornelius and big-money striker signing Youssef Chermiti on the bench.."

I don't feel sorry for Martin because he's a bellend but that must be pretty brutal.

You have to feel sorry for the guy

 

I mean, he asked a good question and didn't even get a proper answer.

It’s not him, it’s not the tactics it’s the players are scared, the players are suffering from anxiety, the players are not doing what they do in training

And you can't do what they're doing in training in games if the atmosphere from the fans is so negative if only the fans could cheer and applaud when they pass it straight to the opposition from defence.

So to summarise everything going great in training but when it comes to match day the players are scared into playing badly due to the atmosphere being created by the fans. 
Righto Russ 👍

Guy is a complete fraud and a shite manager

We had fans literally willing his stay well into last season, and blaming everyone else bar him. 

Adam Blackmoore, as an example, was incredibly soft on him on a professional level. 

What was more alarming that the club did not ditch him primarily on football reasons, and the great Dragan Solak is adamant he will be a very good manager at the top level.

It was so bleeding obvious to most sane football fans that his brand of football would get destroyed in the premier league without the world's best 11 to call upon. He came 4th in a 3 horse race ffs

Remarkable.

Different culture mate, Blackmore couldn't go in too hard without getting kicked out of conferences.
