Some ‘folk’ simply can’t afford tickets and trains etc a few days before Christmas. Others simply can’t get to games anymore due to personal circumstances. Doesn’t mean they care less about the team or views are less valid. I thought the ‘we’ve had a shot’ song was quite funny and a bit of gallows humour in what has been a miserable season.
Rohl would be a good shout. Given our current position I can’t see Potter or a big name taking over. Rohl knows the club and has done well on a limited budget at Sheffield Weds. We are certain to go down so Rohl with a remit to see an improvement in the second half of the season and then rebuild wouldn’t be a bad option.
Anyone decent thinking of taking over will be asking the owners what funds will be made available to strengthen the squad not just this season but more importantly next so we can bounce straight back up. Without money I seriously doubt Potter or Moyes or any other experienced manager would take the job. Expect someone from the lower leagues or someone you’ve never heard of.
It would be virtually impossible to dismiss Martin unless there was gross misconduct or grounds to start a process based on performance. The team being useless would not be grounds. Far too many parameters that a manager could use to take on any dismissal process. I’m afraid it’s pay up the remainder of his contract as the only realistic option.
Storm clouds are gathering. Martins dig at the fans has sealed his fate. Next home game hammering will see him off. Blaming the fans is the most bizarre thing I’ve ever heard from a manager. The guy is a complete and utter feckwit.
Any sensible fan would accept that we will be relegated this season irrespective of who the manager is.
What we can’t accept is this throwing away goals week in week out as a direct result of Martins bizarre tactics, his team selections and his direct refusal to accept responsibility and change things.
Let’s go down at least with our heads held high not as a laughing stock managed by an arrogant fraud.
