"He arrives following an impressive spell at Queens Park Rangers, where he took over in October 2023, guiding the London side from the Championship relegation zone to an 18th-placed with five wins in the final eight games of his first season and improving on that again last term."

 

Wow, it really hits home how far we have fallen reading that. Depressing. 

Yes, it is , but its hopefully going to be more fun trying to get back up that last season getting knocked on are ass every week

White trainers though it’s a sign 

[StanSP]

Good luck and hope he's backed. 

 

Heard the transfer budget is 50p.

 

Goes up to £1.50 on the back of Hermansen sale as that will be used to pay off club debts. 

 

£2 budget if BEK is sold. 

[Tielemans63]

Good luck, Marti - you'll need it.

 

Not sure what to make of this appointment, if I'm honest. Hopefully, he'll be great. Speaks well.

[420Hashish]

Does Andy King stay in the coaching staff? 

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Good luck chap. Hope you can build a bridge to the fans that the rest of the club cannot.

 

Also does him being appointed "manager" differ to RVN? Was he the "head coach"?

Welcome Marti 

So sorry that Dumb annd dumber has thrown you under a bus before a ball has been kicked ! 
 

Just over 3 weeks to personally settle yourself into your new surroundings and a new area to live. 

 

The same goes to professionally settle into the training ground, meet all departments of the club, all new facilities & ways of working, meet all staff, that’s without working with the players and learning their characters, new training methods, tactics, patterns of play, asses strengths and weaknesses, who he wants and who he may not. 

What an absolute shambles and a ram shackled club we have turned out to be - an absolute joke !!!! 
 

And here’s the best bit whose fault is it going to be ? when we kick off and we don’t hit the ground running because the guy hasn’t been given the opportunity and time to implement his ideas, as once again everything is too slow and too late, he will be another lamb to the slaughter !!! 
And he will take the blame just like the ones before him. 
 

Khun Top - Here’s an idea, Just find us a buyer get your money and **** off  !!!! 

 

 

[grth2004]

Keep thinking he looks like someone then I realised who 

[trabuch]

I might actually be looking forward to the new season now.

[Dahnsouff]

Good luck Marti, have every faith in you until we don’t.  

[Spudulike]

Winks has probably been in to see him already to ask if he can commute to training or work from home.

[Gamble92]

Hope he doesn't know Guillem

[bmt]

Im hyped.

[MPH]

He’s got a Spanish accent so he definitely knows about football…

[Ricey]

From my Hammarby supporting mate:

 

“Hope you enjoy endless passing the ball back and forth without progressing up the pitch.”

 

”…sorry to say flexible would be the last word I would use to describe him.”

 

”Towards the end people were losing their shit in the stands as we were once again not even getting into the final third the moment an opponent decided not to press high.”

Still better looking than Cooper

[5waller5]

Good luck Martí. I actually think he’s a great appointment and think he’ll do well.

 

As usual our Board have already used half the pre-season he could have used and will hamper him continuously.

He's wearing an analogue watch and an apple watch. Erm.

Don't worry, he'll be pawning at least one of them soon to pay his half of the compensation.
