Martinez Out?

Look, you KNOW dont you (I mean KNOW within reason) that Martinez will be managing here next season? So why torture yourself?

It's a lost battle. There's no one in that Everton boardroom going to sack martinez. It's just a non-starter...and for good reason: we're safe as houses.

You can jump up and down and stamp your feet all you want...and produce polls each time we get beat...but that fundamental fact is not changing for you.

Safe as houses?

Your own prediction is that we'll finish with 35 points.

Martinez Wigan got relegated with 36.........

Your house is built on sand lad

Wigan had the lowest wage bill in the league. They were relegated because they had the smallest squad in the league, and a long list of long-term injuries - Al Habsi, Ramis, Alcaraz, Caldwell, Figueroa and Beausejour. They didn't have the resources to compete in two competitions.

Injuries a theme again this year. They still conceded way too many. I'm far from convinced that Martinez can organise a defence, or has an eye for a defender. (I'm aware he wanted Stones)

Us being safe as houses is not a fundamental fact. It will probably require us to win 2 or 3 more games. Something it had taken us far longer than 11 games to achieve.
I hope to god the players aren't thinking like you.

in the last 35 domestic games weve won 6 games (including 3 cup games and last 5 of last year when rot started) virtually 1 every 6 games. Absolutley shocking. The fact we have better players than our position suggests shows bad management. Its virtually criminal we are were we are. I enjoyed the Villa and Burnley game this season and thats it, not one other performance has been good. We are the most boring predictive team to watch with no heart or fight. There are teams above us who have 10x worse sides but show a little bit of fight, a little bit if imagination. Martinez needs to realise goals win games, not passing it around the back 8. When wad the last time we had a midfielder score breaking into the box? Just utterly digusting football this season. 35 million spent in the summer too and not one player improved the first 11. I assume he wont be sacked so this summer is massive for him he

How's that possible? We won 6 league games this season in 26, played three domestic cup games (that's 29) and from last five games of last season we won 2. That's 8 in 35. That's not much better though, but you did a bad math here.

No-one's thinking like him

He's only taking this stance as he went all in on Bobby early doors

We're sound.

Stop stressing.

It's been over for you and your pov for weeks now. You and the others have failed in your objective to unseat the manager. It's past that point...has been past since it since the January window ended.

We'll get to safety and Martinez will still be our manager. As distasteful as that is to you, it's something you'll have to accept.

We haven't got the lowest wage bill, so what's your point?

Just that. We aren't like Wigan.

I don't know why I or anyone else should bother replying to your insane and inane posts but you're going to be proved wrong about RM's longevity. BK has been distracted over recent months due to family matters but any worsening of our position from now on in and he's ready to act.

You can really see Kenwright sacking him?

I really struggle to envisage this happening. Whether I want it or not.

If that was the case ( and I don't disbelieve you mate ) then Kenwrights position should be in question if he hasn't been fully focused on developments going on at Goodison until now.

Kenwright's position has always been in question. That question goes something like, "Why don't you sell your shares to one of the Club's wealthier shareholders, and set it free?"

Yes I know what you mean mate but that conversation is for a different thread. I'm talking about something completely different which would be Kenwright showing negligence if he's taken his eye off the ball due to personal.circumstances.
