i highlight the fixtures for a specific reason, not winning them increases the hostility of the fans towards the club. We come away defeated on saturday and it will be hostile atmospheres from that point on, and the club cannot then sack martinez with only 3 games remaining so they have to soldier on, then struggle vs the relegation teams and it grows and grows. Its actually terrible running of the club to even put the team in that position, we can accept losing every game now on the basis of having no manager here, but by having one who has thrown away every possible chance he has been given and still has air time to spout more nonsense to the press is pretty much insulting the fans at that point.

Oh no we can't... because I think if you look at the table, mathematically, we could still go down !

How I wish the RS would have appointed him

Not going again till Coco has gone, fed up totally with watching our style of play.

We arent going down mate, that is the one thing you can be sure of. the bottom 3 teams still there are not going to win every single game remaining, if they could put that sort of run together i'd imagine they wouldn't be in that mess lol

I suddenly had a horrible feeling that he aint getting sacked

Look, when the BBC are rubbing it in you know action needs to be taken.

He wouldn't have lasted 6 months there mate, and they'd still have managed to stumble across one of the best managers in the world to replace him. They'd have shunted him long before he could have done any lasting damage, like they did with Hodgson

This fella winning the FA Cup with Wigan was absolutely the worst thing that could have happened to us and football in general. He should be rotting in the lower leagues with the Simon Graysons and Phil Browns of the world

They got battered in that final.

If it wasn't for Joel's performance that day Martinez would never have got the job ...

Without Lukaku I genuinely think we would have gone down this season. Another reason why Martinez has to go

Maybe not, but can you be certain that we won't lose all four of our remaining games ?

I think right now, I'd rather have Sam Allardyce running Everton over Martinez - at least Big Sam has never been relegated.

Also, if you see Saturday as "just another game" (it wasn't) it's no wins in 7... again. Some of the runs he has been on since has been have been really scary.
