Martin Out

[lfu]

Lennon as manager would be the only possible choice to not only allow Thomas to get pissed to his heart's content in Kirby Muxloe but join him for pints after training

[Finnegan]

In a world where I make a living staring at spreadsheets, it boils my piss and baffles me in equal measure that somehow Ben Jacobs actually gets paid to write about football.

Genuinely interested to understand if this is true how it doesn’t show up on any regular tests or impairs performance enough to notice*
 

*for conditioning staff or management to notice as it is clear to fans he isn’t up to scratch

Dyche Would be an upgrade. 
Knows Rudkin as well.

I’ll raise you Luke Thomas being paid between 25k-60K PER WEEK to play professional football over the last 6 years.

He would be, but would laugh at being asked. He's better than League 1 and apparently he's happy what he's doing a tthe moment, apparently 

[J.Lisemore]

He has constantly been knocked off the ball for years, why has this not been addressed by himself or the backroom staff? Opposition managers must love seeing his name on the team sheet as he's such an easy target.

He has experience in this league. 
Hasn’t finished below 6th in this league. 
Isn’t Russell Martin. 
Has a win rate of over 50% - granted that does include lower leagues. 
 

Genuinely think it’s a no brainer and should at the very least been spoken to by the club in the summer. 

not to mention hes worked on a really low budget most the time too

Was furious the other night in the Royal Oak Kirby, forgot my wallet didn't I.. had already asked kev for a Guinness and then i saw Luke Thomas or 'Tommo Tennant's' as we call him down Oak as he has a special fridge out back just for his. I said can you get em for me Tommo and he told me to **** off. I was like, woah why aren't you on like 40k a week and he said he spent that week's salary on one phat bet on the F1 or something so his mate Gabbo was getting them in.

You on the drink mate?

 

anyways, lets stay on topic:

 

Martin OUT!

[GrobyLCFC31]

Both of them I think would’ve had us higher than 18th if they’d taken over in the summer.
 

Lennon seems like move of a quick fix to reignite some hunger and stability , Edwards feels more long term - 

 

Both are an upgrade in terms of flexibility and taking us back to a football reality of where we’re actually at in the modern game rather than having 78% possession and being rewarded with flimsy, soulless defeats.

Genuine question; Is there anyone on this forum that would be against sacking off Martin and bringing in Challinor?

How do we know that Challinor would be interested? Perhap's we tried to appoint him before having to turn to Martin as a last resort (probably unlikely but just don't know).

[LCFCCKEANO]

Rob Edwards would be a good shout for me, 3 at the back and wing backs should fix the shite in defence

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

I don’t think this Russell Martin experiment could have gone much worse. And almost every supporter called it. Perhaps the club should be run by a supporter who wins a raffle, perhaps take turns every month - because I’m pretty sure it would see an improvement in the decision-making at this shambolic football club.

[Legend_in_blue]

He isn't going to turn this around sufficiently to get us in the promotion picture.  At best, he'll have us mid table.

 

Unless he is willing to change his ways of course, but he won't.

Fantastic to see Martin sack rumours, if only I believed them

Are there? Or are you referring to the Ben Jacobs article?

Yeah, the Jacobs article. Should really have said "heading for the sack" rumours.

[HarryDee8]

He thinks playing possession football like man city will get us out of this league 🤣🤣

How about the fact that one of the most successful football games of all time is essentially staring at spreadsheets?

Are you being serious?

Hamza was a shocker and then got made captain 😂😂

 

I could tell you horror stories about the lower leagues, well actually the league we are in now!

 

And yeah, our Luke likes a drink but I don't think this actually makes him play any worse than he already does 😂
