Hes a waste of skin. I remember king curt presenting him with his swans shirt and burns looked like he couldn't give a flying fvck. No wonder Martin fvcked him off. Found his level then. |  | |  |

When fans don’t like a manager, they know better than him, always. Duff will have his detractors at some point and he’ll have his own version of Burns, Whittaker, Ogbeta etc. |  | |  |

I posted this about a year ago and recall the same incident. King Curt was full of style happiness and gave his time freely. He could barely give a smile to the cub legend. It could t be the awkwardness of youth of course. I tried to find the clip but was not able to find it. Quite a few of the Martin presentations came over as awkward and contrived suggesting an underlying simmering discontent. The one after the 'must win' Hull game another. It may be misleading of course. They had a party in Swansea for Martin when he left which was unusual. [Post edited 1 Aug 2023 14:57]

I never said I knew better. I just have an opinion. I have nothing personal against Martin I just don't rate him. |  | |  |

Wasn’t directed at you at all. General observation. The amount of people demanding we start players they’d barely or never seen was staggering. Not just a Martin thing either, every manager gets it, obviously the less popular ones more so. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

This. He was berated for shoehorning a central defender into a wide role whilst refusing to even countenance using other options available to hm. |  |

Fair enough. I try to give every manager a chance and Duff will get the same thing, my full support until I think he doesn't deserve it. Martin got that too. |  | |  |

That’s absolutely fair enough and as it should be. The reality as I see it, is in the vast majority of cases where managers get grief for ‘not giving players a chance’ they end up being proven right. Very few have gone on to play at a similar or better level. Gyokores is an exception, but in fairness to Cooper, he did look awful when he was here. Guarantee the same thing will happen to Duff if he hits a sticky patch. |  | |  |
