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

[chazzle_dazzle]

he chats so much crap it's unreal.

'our away form is champions league form'

pretty sure it isnt mate.

I have nearly just vomited at that quote on my twitter feed....

 

[mythbuster]

So, let's say I rob you of £1000 but give you a tenner back...

Not defending our form at all. I've said it once, and I'll say it again.... It's not been good enough.

However, it's not fair to attack him, or laugh at him for THAT comment. It was a pretty accurate comment, even if it does slightly deflect from the question of our overall form.

 

[chazzle_dazzle]

“Our way of approaching games is always the same, to make our fans proud and to play to win.”

If that's not a blatant lie I don't know what is.

lollollollollol excellent popcorning Mr Martinez

 

[sixtynineseventy]

He doesn't help himself. There is only one league table. He can't cherry pick facts to disguise his own failure.

 

[Real_madras]

There is no point shouting for his head, so close to the end of the season. I imagine if we get hammered But on Saturday that will be the end. But after the last game of the season. Can't see Roberto resigning.

 

[Coffee and TV]

Greg O'Keeffe and Tony Scott having a go at Martinez. Pretty unusual for the echo journalists to say anything that would annoy the club, stuff like this is what's making me think he'll be on his way at the end of the season.

He can't cherry pick facts to disguise his own failure.

He can, and he does.

Problem is, it kids nobody. Nothing changes for the better so he'll move onto the next best thing when the away record falters....The semi...And if that goes south - what's he got left?

 

[chazzle_dazzle]

Tbh, am still buzzing at his claim that we are still fighting in two competitions. lollollollollol

Yes, we are still in the Fa Cup which is brilliant, but what are we fighting for in the premier league? hahahahah.

He is a proper crazy person, he must have a bet with Jones to see how far he can talk utter garbage without being called on it.

Rich man....!

 

[mkrudden]

Highly doubt he said it. Just another WUM who thinks our current predicament is hilarious and something to joke about.

Weren't you the lad/lady that said they werent paying for the internet? LOL
Wind it in matey, @Moomin is a good'en

 

[mkrudden]

so double the away, 48 points. Currently 17 points at home. So we'd be on 65points. Which would put us 3rd.

edited because I am just [Poor language removed] awful at math...

I'm being a proper tard here maybe but...

Martinez is correct isnt he?

Don't think so mate. Unless I drunkenly posted it an forgot about it like.... That whole sentence makes no sense to me though. What was your point?

 

[Ashtonian]

More from Alan Pardew: "Mathematically, no [we're not safe]. But we'll keep going until that is the case. I want us to finish mid-table.

"It's been a long time since we've had momentum and we've got it. I think that's more important than a rest.

"Our away form's been fine this year. If our home form was anywhere near it we'd be comfortable."

notice the difference? Pardew says it normally, Martinez makes things up.

 

[chazzle_dazzle]

End of the day - our away form has us 7th in the table, no denying that - but it isn't champions league form.

Am i being dead thick? why are people doubling up the points from the away games?

How drunk were you mate? https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/got-needs-your-help.79442/page-4#post-3880147

Burgered if I know

As for our away form - could easily be as low as 15th in a fortnight or so. What will 'berto be pointing to if that becomes the case?

"We have managed the 'nth' most goals against the bottom three"

No more excuses. No more distractions. Just GTFO.
