Are you too limited to see the paucity of opposition in that time? Bottom half, lower quartile oppo. Wake up and take a look. When we play proper, top notch teams we fail, miserably. They know how to neutralise us and exploit our schoolboy weaknesses. Most esp Cooperball. A proper schooling. Yet again. Even for the twpest, surely. It'll soon be over. Thank heck. It'll soon be over for Martinball v0.1. Thank feck. |  |

Dr P been on here in abundance, OHL started posting multiple times about Martin's shortcomings ( thankfully he seems to have calmed down now. Now I notice AC is back. Without reading his posts I can guess that they are anti Martin and no doubt contain his favourite word "twp" Shame as it has been great on here overall the last couple of weeks. In fairness OHL has posted lots of sensible posts, until Dr P reappeared... |  |

In fairness that's how life works. People react to events. We have a poor result: people criticise manager. It would more bizarre if people were roundly applauding him. [Post edited 2 May 2022 22:54]

You're right Chief. Just a shame some don't react equally when we played well and had good results. Certainly I didn't expect to see anyone applauding him after the game at Forest. |  |

Isn't it just, Chief. I'm pretty sure you have it in you to dissect Martinball too should you chose to. Give it yer best shot, do us proper fans proud. And as the infamous Jackfath said ydy to those that choose the 'Ignore' button : 'I'm a grown up'. FFS |  |

Dots were a marker between me and them, mostly. I'm choosing to relent, allow some space. Anyways Chief, Martinball ain't so good as the twps make out is it ? In fact Martinball has drawn in the twps, they're hook line and sinkered. What do you think ? With your Corsican heritage, you hooked ? |  |

| It'll soon be over folks on 00:17 - May 3 with 368 views | Dr_Parnassus | I do feel that even the staunchest of Martinball fans are approaching the end of the line with it. Little comments here and there give it away, silence on other subjects do similar. Often it’s not what is said that gives some away, it’s what isn’t said. I was watching some of the away fans videos they post online and the comments from Forest fans, whilst respectful are embarrassing to read. They were laughing at our goal kick routine with Fisher passing it out then pushing forward to be another CB leaving the goals completely empty. They said that is bound to backfire and seems a pointless risk for what is very little attacking gain. They are right of course, and they had no idea of it failing the very week previous in embarrassing fashion. I gave Martin a chance, said I had faith he would change things and stick to it. But it has slowly been confirmed that we are being used as his vanity project. He has an obsession with trying to appear innovative but there is so little technical or practical thought behind it, the execution is just so clumsy and transparent. I don’t think I’ve ever been so concerned about a manager before. Not even Bradley had me this concerned as I was pretty sure he would be given the boot if he didn’t win games, with Martin I’m not so sure. It’s like he’s the leader of a cult, sadly the club is ritual sacrifice. |  |

It's so plain as day isn't it. Well, at least to those of us who have an ounce or three of intelligence. Which ofc begs the question why so many on here have and still are, duped by Martinball shite. Can anybody in the twps corner hold up their hands and articulate why on earth they still support the nonsense that is brand Martin ? ......

Nothing to say then about only losing one of our last ten league games? About us winning three games on the trot against Cardiff away, Millwall away and Derby at home? One poor result and you are all over it like a cheap suit, which sums up your pathetic, continuous twp remarks. |  | |  |

You can have 0 defeats all season and still be relegated. Being unbeaten isn’t the sign of success. We haven’t won a game in our last 5, we are 15th. I think those are the overarching concerns. |  |

We beat Derby, Millwall and Cardiff. 23rd, 9th and 19th or something right? Great, but despite winning 3 games we still haven’t won in the last 5 games and we still remain 15th - including winning those 3. I’m not understanding what your point is exactly. Is it that any poor season is fine if you can point to a couple of wins along the way? [Post edited 3 May 2022 7:46]

You didn’t think what? That we were 15th and hadn’t won in the last 5 games? Or that I wouldn’t suddenly be happy with that simply because we won 3 games a little while back? Struggling to understand what point you are making here. |  |

AC. It's called looking for light at the dark end of a tunnel. Right now, we are stuck right in the middle . Pointo ourt to lifey,2 games in a winning position thrown away. This is fan signalling of the worst kind. |  |

Maybe you shouldn't think at all about the current state . You were not thinking positively when the reading equaliser went in,and you werent for the Forest ignominy. We have made a catastrophic decision and have to accept it.It is all about how we can get the coach to exit and replace him with one who will nurture players not destroy them. I feel a public fans apology is needed for Ben Hamer so maybe some should show support for a decent chap and a decent goalkeeper who's career has been killed by one individual smiling coach |  |

One of your mates just entered a discussion calling people pr!cks and telling them to f*k off, then going on to infer violent intentions. I think that’s probably a more pressing issue for the ownership at the moment than someone calling someone twp. Keith is fully aware of the tactics of certain individuals to remove views they find uncomfortable. I’ll be shocked if it works again. The issues are now clear where they are sourced. But it may be best if you stick to the topic instead of trying to cause drama on this? |  |

I’d love to see Gio Savarese being given a go. He’s done very well in the MLS, speaks well, has excellent game intelligence and was one of my favourite acquisitions back in the day. I remember his debut against Stoke at home, wonderful player at that level and has since developed into a talented manager and has a history of developing youth. 48.37% win % at New York Cosmos over 153 games 45.68% win % at Portland Timbers over 162 games In our price range, connections with the club, experienced and a track record of good managerial results. That’s where I would be looking. |  |
