If he doesnt get the sack today he will be here in the end of the season 100%
Theres no reason to sack him after bournemouth game more than there already is. It is either today of when the season ends.
Ridiculous.
He should have been sacked before the semis like so many of us said.

I'm not so sure about that. Depend on the result on Saturday and the reaction from the crowd.

Saturday could be really horrible for Martinez if the result goes against us and there could be all sorts of ramifications on the back of it.

He could then be gone Saturday evening.

Really not sure why (if the Esk is correct and they've already made the decision to replace him) they're dragging this out and potentially putting him through an awful experience on Saturday. That won't do anyone any good will it?

Not sure why the board would subject him and the players to what they are probably going to receive at Goodison on Saturday from the fans.

Exactly what I've just said. If Kenwright thinks he's "the most wonderful man you could ever wish to meet", why potentially put him through an awful experience on Saturday?

If they've made up their mind to replace him in the summer, release him now! We'd all feel like a big weight has lifted from our shoulders and at least we'd all know one way or the other.

If they intend to keep him, come out and say so! Do one or the other.

Inactivity has always been the modus operandi of this board. Do the bare minimum to keep fan anger at bay without actually progressing. If Moshiri wasn't here I could well see BK rubbing his hands at the thought of the Euros distracting Evertonians and Martinez starting another season with a load of the same old promises and the Lukaku money in the bank.

Well lets keep fingers, toes and everything else that can be crossed, crossed and hope Moshiri is all that we're hoping for!
 
Tbf Moshiri didn't want to come in and start barking orders and sacking mangers right into his tenure. He must be in a difficult situation right now.

Bill will be like you have to have at stability and you can't listen to fans as they are fickle. Look at our rewards when we kept faith with moyes
 
Not quite phenomenal, but still "Fantastic" Roberto!

Under-fire Everton boss Roberto Martinez is a "fantastic" manager says ex-player

Roberto Martinez has been labelled a “fantastic” manager and backed to turn it around at Everton.

The Catalan faces a fight to save his Goodison reign after the Blues lost their FA Cup semi-final against Manchester United on Saturday.

But Martinez’s former goalkeeper at Wigan Athletic, Ali Al Habsi, has leapt to the defence of the under-fire manager.

“I think he is a fantastic manager,” he said.

“I was with him for three years at Wigan and we win the FA Cup.

“I think the game against United was a massive one for him.

“You can see the pressure he has.

“There is always that pressure when you go to bigger club you have that pressure but for me he is a fantastic manager.

“He was a great manager for me to talk with and how he manages the team.

“But the pressure is part of his job for players and managers and hopefully he can get through all this and to see him with a better feeling next season.”

Martinez accepts that Everton’s poor season will mean he’s under scrutiny but Al Habsi reckons he can deal with the pressure.

“As a manager he will know how to handle that pressure,” he added.

“At a club like Everton they expect good performances all the time and expect high places in the league.

“They did not have all this, this year but we will see.”

Woeful goal keeper backs woeful manager who used to pick woeful goalkeeper.
 
My worry is that BK obviously likes Martinez, so why would he let someone get likes take the absolute battering that will await him from fans in the last few home games.

Surely he would save him this grief by sacking him now. It doesn't make sense unless it's about the compensation.
