I just don't know why we're meant to lick Martinez's arsehole for keeping Wigan up. Paul Jewell did it, ffs. Steve Bruce had them up near the top half. It's not like he inherited an awful team, they're much worse now. Before he took over their league positions were a lot better than they have been with him in charge (10th, 11th, 14th and 17th compared to three bottom 5 finishes with him in charge).
In the same way that Moyes covers up the flaws in his approach by having us slot teams once the seasons' practically over and every bugger else has stopped caring, Martinez' team's mad charge up the league in spring hides the fact that from august to january they played the worst, least effective football of any team in all four leagues.
This is the guy who spent £6.5 million on Mauro Boselli and £2 million on Jason Scotland and you want him at a club that literally cannot afford a big money duff transfer.
