It’s dead easy to understand Griff, when Martinez was our manager I could see what he was trying to do just like you Standish and a few others. The football at times was brilliant and at other times was abysmal. A manager who allows his players to take a short free kick when 30 yards away from goal and within 10 secs its with our goalie, has a lot to learn. This is just one example of the shortfalls of RM, IMHO he was and is not as good as I and you made him out to be. Everton fans are already saying he has no plan B, and that’s because he is so wrapped up in his playing methodology he is too short sighted to see the obvious at times. He is crying out for a decent assistant that has been there, done that and got the tee shirt.
Perhaps I’m just an old fashioned supporter who bums up his team, managers, players etc no matter what, but when anybody leaves they just want um to fail. It’s called being a loyal supporter and like it or not there are probably more fans wanting Martinez to fail than those wanting him to succeed. I’m just going off the gangs I hang around with, but I reckon that’s a fair indication, call it the exit poll of the football world.
There are 3 regular posters on here that jump in if anybody has a go at Bobby and / or Everton. That’s you, Standish and Barnsley, the rest either don’t give a shyte or openly bear a grudge against RM.

That’s where I stand, so OK, if you want to read the posts and defend RM or call the posters who have a go at him, please do, its your prerogative being a latics fan and long standing member of this board. :kiss:

That’s the whole point! ‘In your honest opinion’ he isn’t as good as you made him out to be!

So your defence of him for three years was just pom poms. You told everyone what a great manager he was, but you didn’t actually believe it yourself.

What about Rosler? Will he be a poor manager when he leaves in a couple of seasons?

And, I don’t jump in when others have a go at Martinez. It’s almost exclusively just you. The other posters didn’t use to defend him as vehemently as you did.

Maybe I’m just an old fashioned supporter – who likes to see ex-players, who have developed at the club, doing well for themselves.
