Roberto Martinez Discussion - Including Live Poll (Poll Reset 1st May)

[MichaelEFC96]

But " you Everton fans" is absolutely fine is it? Goading a young Blue who had the temerity to challenge him.

Lovely bloke though

Doesn't warrant verbally abusing him like that though. Poor manager but still a decent down to earth nice bloke.

 

[orly]

Out of order if he has said anything to him that would be deemed offensive.

You chant Martinez out all you want and wave banners but don't give the man abuse to his face, you wouldn't do it to anyone else. Hope someone had a word with him afterwards and called him a tit, be better if Roberto did it himself.

Nah, because giving him abuse anonymously online is infinitely better than publicly challenging a man who, in every other platform be it media or press interviews, gives deflecting, farcical responses.

Jesus wept, the state of these great bloke shouts for a man who just said "you Everton fans". The kid should've just asked him for a selfie.

Who unfortunately isn't a very good football manager mate and should be allowed to exit with dignity .

That's it summed up for me.

Roberto is a nice guy who for the most part has embraced the clubs history and values but isn't a good enough manager for us. I hoped this would be handled with some dignity and respect, preferably (for me) at the end of the season.

This ugly atmosphere that's building up isn't good for any party involved.

 

[JAYTALITY]

This is all turning a bit sour isn't it?

Sssss, burn!

I am still struggling with how anyone can interpret with any degree of accuracy what is bring said there.

And whatever it is, it doesn't look to me as if there is a slanging match going on.

It's out in the open now.It's not hidden fume on GOT anymore.Martinez wanted to censure Leighton Baines to cover his own back.Only for it to backfire spectacularly.The whole Martinez thing was a powder keg that was going to explode and the Leighton Baines incident is what tipped it off.If people thought last Saturday was bad just wait until the next game at Goodison.

What makes you think the mass unrest was confined to Grand Old Team mate ?

I can't even hear him on that video. What did he say?

 

[Deco]

I can't make anything out of that video personally. I've decided that for me he's not the man to bring us forward but he's shown the club and fans nothing but respect in his time here.

I really hope his lasting memory isn't a bitter departure.

 

[Furey1878]

How can anyone make out a single thing being said by the lad or Martinez in that video?

 

[Khalekan]

I can't even hear him on that video. What did he say?

Darned if I know.

I have watched it at least ten times and cannot hear owt at all

 

[The Esk]

I could not make out a single word in that conversation.

 

[larbert toffee]

Kenwright needs to come out of his bunker and take some of the pressure off him too. Either back him and ramp up the fume levels, but take some of the flak himself or allow him to walk away by resigning.

COYBL25 wow you are so right,only just realised blue bill has been so silent on this one up to now,whether he has fully handed the reins over or not he saw fit to sign Roberto and should make some sort of ' back him or sack him 'statement as the pressure is ramped up.

Personally i think Roberto may well be a decent guy but we are talking about the future of our club and I now do not think he is up to the task of handling us in the league regardless of how we do in the cup and this should be pointed out to from a senior capacity.

 

[caught]

I could not make out a single word in that conversation.

It's a spoken word version of Islands in the Stream, with Roberto taking Dolly's part.

 

[Die Erlkönig]

I think he's a nice man but being nice doesn't win football games.

 

[a bell maul]

I did not hear a word. It did not look aggressive or hostile. Storm in a teacup.
Personally, I believe the club's fans have every right to engage in (civil) conversation with the manager .

I would love to have a chat with RM and see if he wants to use my nana to train the defence's dealing with set piece...she'd do a better job than the person who's currently trying to do it.
