Nobody here seems to have picked up on my post quoting Talksport. "Martin has others options, both in the UK and abroad". His appointment is not a given thing.

True, but advanced talks makes me think it’s close.

Hopefully, he is in advanced talks with a host of other clubs - and does the sensible thing (for us and himself) in choosing someone else!

Woken up to many texts from Charlie Methven saying exactly what a lot of us are saying.

 

What on earth are we playing at going for Martin. Have we not learnt anything yet? Not to mention how appalling he's done at Rangers and made a mockery of by us whenever we've played his teams but League One is not an environment to go in to it arrogant and trying to play possession football. Cleverley tried it at Plymouth and was nigh on bottom at Xmas and changed to counter attacking football and thrived. Looked at Lincoln with the lowest possession in the league and pissing it. You need a high calibre squad and a high calibre manager to get that type of football to work and we'll have neither.

 

 

Cleverley point is a really good one. He deliberately changed the approach away from his core coaching philosophy. Pragmatic and more concerned about success than his ego and his principles. Would take him in a heartbeat over Martin who’s completely intransigent and Rowett who is just clueless

We were all hoping for a positive start a reset after the shite that’s been served over the recent years. What is with us and Southampton links. The guy had 1 win in 17 with Rangers arguably an easier league than League one. I hope it works out but it’ll only take a draw or loss for fans to start turning again on Martin and the board! Our owners are so out of their depth and don’t have the skills to be running a club.

cannot wait for the inevitable radio Leicester phone in calling fans entitled after booing an opening day 4-0 defeat at home to Bromley. utterly rancid appointment.

Probably picked him because he can do the 3 fist pumps to the fans “yeah yeah yeah” when they win like they all do now 

 

Its how naive they are 

They picked him for style of football, Top is in his own little world, distanced from everything.
We need a new owner more than anything, everything else is just broken for as long as Top is here, including style of play and manager preference.

I think this just proves that Rudders and that little fella he keeps in his pocket, really don’t give a **** about the fans, and they really don’t understand football at all.

From looking at his managerial stats I'm actually fairly confident we will be smashing that passing record 😜 that's better than Barcelona....

Burton Albion won't know what's hit them!! 

Get him signed 😝

Highlights?

Against:

- fear that the style of play is seen by some coaches (Pep) as somewhat outdated. Teams like Bournemouth have adapted/bettered it. 
-Disappointment from Anil that we haven’t gone for, say an assistant manager from someone like Bournemouth.

- Fear fanbase will be against him from the off and he will be fighting a losing battle

- Anil acknowledged that ANY manager we get, will likely find it difficult to hit the ground running in the first weeks of the season, given player turnover.

- read out the Rangers fans opinions of him 😂

 

For:

- Accepting that at least a decision is being made, relatively early. At least we are starting to ‘do something’

- They talked through his time at Swansea and MK Dons

- Talked about him not being quite as bad as some make out

- Read out the Southampton fans opinions of RM

- Talked about how the Southampton players wanted him back after Will Still was sacked.

 

thats about what I remember

Brendan Rodgers, Mike Stowell, Adam Sadler, no Chris Powell

Deano Smith, Maresca, Steve Cooper booed

Ben Dawson, Goals van Ruud, Spanish guy in a mood

Andy King, Rowett dude, Russell Martin vegan food

 

We didn’t start the fire

We didn’t light it but we tried to fight it

In all seriousness, he's a perfect fit. I've never seen a manager who is a closer embodiment to any football club than Martin is to ours. An unwillingness to change no matter what.

Martin is just the symptom, the actual disease is Top. We're the club that did the impossible, winning the PL playing fast, counter attacking football. And Top talks about us going back to our "identity", playing slow, possession football. He's completely deluded, turning whatever he touches to shit.

Yeah this will happen. It happened quite a bit with Enzo - and that was even when we were top of the league!  , he hated his tactics being questioned.

I can  see it being the same with RM - but without us being top of the league

Then clapping Harry Winks, and saying our owners are lovely.
