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

[Abertonian]

I despise Chris Sutton but his brutal honesty is to be respected.

Sad when it takes an utter bell to point out what we are seeing in the media. He's absolutely spot on though.

Yearh if you want mate!

And a clown obviously, only in jest.

Exactly this. He's an opinionated a-wipe who has nailed on our manager and situation in about 2 minutes of audio.

The pan has boiled over. Hot water spilling everywhere. The knob is broken and it cannot be cooled down. There is no way back now for people.

Very possibly.

I was very pro Martinez and only started turning after Hammers.

I prevaricated for a few weeks, moving back after Cheksea in the Cup.

But Arsenal finally done for me.

Quite possibly Stan wrote that a few short weeks ago.

Although to be fair, I have never heard him call for Roberto to go.....or stay for that matter......but he definitely feels he should be doing better in the league with this squad.

Exactly the same as me mate, was really in two minds but the Arsenal game was so dire,no spirit and no guidance from him, it would almost be a mercy sacking if things continue.

The end is nigh for Martinez,need to bite the bullet and get shut ASAP and replace him with a top manager and get to work on keeping our best players.

Agreed hate Sutton with a passion, but this time he is 100% correct.

Bloody hell mate you've got me checking my oven here to make sure I've switched everything off lol

 

[blulouie]

Nah, Stan always has a good word to say about us.

He was on about it again tonight......saying Roberto Martinez is wrong if he thinks getting to a semi final is "good enough" for a "club like Everton who should be challenging for top four with this team".

You are spot on about Murphy, though.

Spot on about Collymore , he really has a soft spot for Everton.
He called the clubs hierarchy out on a number of occasions.
Always gives time to any Blues that ring his show as well.
And to be honest Danny Murphy actually talks sense unlike other pundits.

The media are getting onto it now is he clock ticking or will it be swept under the table I guess time will tell

Feels this way, doesn't it? Lost the majority of fans. Players seems very dejected. And now pundits are increasingly putting the boot in. I'd imagine there'll be pieces in the national press on the growing pressure in the coming days (and tbf, if we were any of the CL regulars those articles would have appeared earlier in the season). A hiding in the derby and I don't think the FA cup will save him. I realize there are already a lot on here think he should go regardless of the cup.

The pressure is now on the board to come out with something. Does he get the dreaded vote of confidence? People are looking in their direction for a response whether they back him or sack him remains to be seen.

The FA Cup won't save him now even if we do win it. I think a tipping point has been reached with a majority of fans and some key players too. I'd be quite frankly amazed if he lasts the summer.
