I'm as close to ever voting "out", but I doubt it would make any difference to what happens this season

If we're going to sack him, I'd prefer to do it at the end of the season I think as the dross below us will ensure we don't actually go down

I'd imagine that if we lose to Newcastle and go out to Kiev, that will be all she wrote anyway

Im exactly the same buddy although I just can't see the chairman pulling the trigger.
 



The full text of the PM comment.

Roberto Martinez put this evening's 2-0 defeat at Stoke down to Everton's hectic schedule, citing a fifth match in the space of two weeks for another lethargic display.

The Blues lost 2-0 on the road for the second time in four days with Mark Hughes's Potters emulating Arsenal with a goal in each half to win comfortably.

It was Everton's eighth away defeat in nine games — the 1-0 win at Crystal Palace standing as a lone success over that period and the result keeps them mired in the bottom half of the table, six points above the relegation zone.

"We've played five games in two weeks and I've seen us give everything and nothing go in our favour," Martinez lamented after the match.

"But now we need to look forward. We've got 30 points to fight for in the league and we'll give everything to get positive results.

"We didn't show a cutting edge tonight. I did feel our performance showed a little bit of the tired legs that are normal with the number of games we've had in this period and now is the moment to be stronger than ever."

Everton's next fixture is the first leg against Dynamo Kyiv at Goodison Park in the Europa League, a competition which has seen Martinez's side perform in completely different fashion to their poor domestic form.

"[We need] to be together and have a good period now where we can recover the players and regenerate them and get ready for the next games," the manager continued, appealing to supporters to retain their faith and support.

"We've got 10 games to go in the league and six of them at Goodison Park and we need to be strong together."
 
A bit calmer today, but I still don't see him turning it around before it's too late. I'd say Newcastle last chance and if it doesn't look convincing then give him the snip.
