Not sure who we could have appointed with that team. I doubt even Alex Ferguson would have got a tune out of them. The damage was done long before these no-hopers came in. That applies to the whole setup. 

We are rancid but so is a lot of the division.

 

Had a really decent run in and even after picking up barely any points were a couple of results away from staying up.

 

Nigel Pearson would have comfortably kept us up.

Most of the games won were at the start of the season

If you exclude the wins in November, December, and one in January.

and bar Daka being a useless twat, we probably win a couple more where we kept clean sheets.  

 So that doesn’t apply to Martis time where he was banging in goals every week.

no one said anyone was doing a good job? I think you’ve jumped into the middle of a conversation. I took exception to someone saying that Marti was worse than Rowett or as bad. The evidence suggests other.

I think he probably was worse on the basis he had 2/3rds of the season, certainly as bad, coming in half way through a shit job and turning it around is more difficult than start a fresh season. Both should not have ever been here.

We got 3 wins in August (Shef Wed lucky against 10 men lucky at Charlton who were all over us),  0 Sept (draw at home to a poor Wrexham), 1 Oct (random 3-1 win at Swansea followed by a 1-1 Vs Pompey and loss to Blackburn, 2 Lucky wins in November (1 with a Daka brace, a 1-1 draw vs 10 man Boro and last minute James goal we didn't deserve vs Norwich away, who were bottom and winless at home) , December (3) we somehow beat Derby 2 times and Ipswich once (probably the only decent performances under him), January (1) Played off the park by West Brom Fatawu worldy at the end saved us). In the meantime Southampton, Sheffield United (twice) and the mighty QPR absolutely spanked us embarrassingly. So really bar the start of the season and Derby being shit, we were probably averaging 1 win a month under that clueless clown and even that was pure class from one player as opposed to a coherent team and tactical plan.
