Derek Hatton? If he says the squad is still together I'll bet they are not.

Now remember when you panned me for saying Mark Hughes was a better manager than Martinez? And then months later called me a clown for saying it, well I have news for you (although I don't want him) for the second season on the bounce he has THAT Stoke team ahead of THIS Everton team.

LOL

In a bit.

nice...you've just busted @mythbuster 's myth.

 

[toffee matt]

Does feel like the tide is turning sharply against him now

But it's anyone's guess what the club are thinking

All too easy

Anyways, I think we're seeing vultures scavenging the corpse here now. Fans first, then players, then the media.

Goodbye El Fraudo

How is it a mistake?

It could be argued that we had a decent player in Naismith, and have replaced him with one more expensive, less capable and not currently fit - however he's not had that much of a chance it must be said.

If not yet a mistake, certainly not yet a successful decision either.

 

[Groucho]

you accuse someone of something, and then claim he needs to find the evidence to clear himself of the charges you've laid

that's an interesting strategy mythbuster/maker

Find evidence...pfft. As if I'm gonna trawl the forum to show you that....

Here's an idea.... Why don't you trawl the forum and show ME evidence that you've ever been on this forum without an agenda to abuse one of our managers and act like you weren't happy with them....

Let's keep it friendly please lads.

His reign of terror is nearly over.

New boss will come in, instantly drop Cleverley and McCarthy, back will come Super Duper Kev and probs Besic and it will be like this nightmare never happened

HHMMM is that wishful thinking?

Would be interesting to see what happens if we lose vs Watford, and there are 'Martinez Out' banners in the crowd.

Don't count oldblue out yet mate. His minced turkey rasher/egg white shakes lend him potent staying power.

Apologies

I've made Turkey bacon egg white muffins as a snack with my high protein diet. Not bad at all.

Anyway, think he will be gone in the summer. Won't get rid till after the FA cup at the earliest.

I asked for this to stop. Threadbanned I'm afraid. Let's not make things personal.

Debate and disagree by all means, but let's not get personal.

 

[ianefc]

Just had a thought, in Dalgliesh' last full season he got to both Domestic cup finals and was sacked, in Rodgers last full season he got to both domestic cups semi finals and was sacked 3 months into the next season.

A little bit of expectation and confidence in the clubs name/Moto is needed.

What's your idea of the best? It gets said a lot and I feel people probably should clarify it or it would become a bit of a meaningless thing to attack a manager with

The best is not hanging on to a manger who does not seem to be up to the job. He is never wrong, it's either the players poor moment of form, the fans or something that is clearly deflecting from the obvious. The best is about the board making the correct decision now, not holding on either for financial or unfounded loyalty. We are on the brink of new investment, why wait until the end of the season? If we have a billionaire as the major shareholder, act now, get the best we can and make a statement before the season peters out, to make the club more attractive in the close season.
If you want a name of a replacement, I've got no idea, I'm not in the business, but a shareholder like Moshiri and his right hand man know on the board, you would expect them to have a candidate or two, if not we've just inherited a slightly richer BK.
Sorry for the rant, its just annoying that a season of such potential has been wasted.

He's already lost the fans and the club would be burying their heads in the sand if they didn't realise it

The bad thing for him is that the media who have spent the last few years licking his arse are now starting to turn the screw.
