Not sure he can survive now , pity no one wants to see a manager sacked ( well maybe not every one )but we cannot continue like this

The same formation which has given us good performances in the past. We controlled games against Millwall, Blackpool and Rotherham. Alright, today and Blackburn wasn't good enough.
I think we need to delve into the transfer market, and Martin needs to have a look at the formation a little bit, and change patterns of play etc. But, this formation fits in ALL our best players. You cannot go changing formation every game, as that leads to confusion and definite lack of faith in manager. Nor, can we continue to sack managers, or lose managers continually.
We're building something. I agree with that. We also have great players at the club.


Regardless of the formation... 4-4-2, 4-5-1, 3-4-3 doesn't matter... If they're not prepared to play more attacking when they have the ball and only interested in possession then we're always going to struggle.

We haven't got quick wing backs who can take players on and whip crosses into the box... So I'm at a loss why we play that formation, but it doesn't matter... It's the tactical instructions (and/or players) that need to change. And if Martin isn't prepared to do it then he needs to be replaced too!

What exactly is Martin trying to build , a legacy for himself , that's going well , a defensive formation the envy of the league , again we've become a soft touch , attacking intent , no shots on target for 3/4 if the match , at home !!!, Sorry this project ( a term I intensely dislike) is going no where and fast . I don't expect him to be able to match the great managers of the past but I do expect better tactical awareness and a response when it's needed ,that's something he can't provide

He's building a legacy for sure.

Went to the match today. Left after 75 minutes.
I don't think I've ever been so bored at a football match in my entire life.

Who else does he play at WB though? We have none at the club...

How many?
It should be none.
We have reached that point where we all know he won’t improve so every games is waste if time for the new manager to get to know the players before the next windows.

A sign of a half decent coach at any level is looking at a player in his squad and changing his position. We have players in the squad with the raw ingredients to become a wing back. We just don’t have the coach to make it happen. Different level but look at what Eddie Howe’s done with Joelinton. Turned him into one of the best destroyers in the premier league because he identified his credentials. There’s many other examples up and down the divisions.

It’s been over a year since we knew Connor was leaving. We plugged the gap with two short term loans that we knew wouldn’t be with us long term. It’s not a sudden problem caused by injury this is borderline negligence.

I truly believe a competent manager would get this squad into the play-offs once we replace the MK Dons players (maybe Darling aside). Also think we would have challenged last season too.

He cannot continue to have the run of the place with the promise of it being “the process”. His process has never worked anywhere, it’s simply a tactic to avoid immediate accountability.

Time up. OUT

Not sure.
Martin has brought in poor players and the overall quality is abysmal really.
What bothers me is the division in the fan base

The damage being done by both Martin and the Owners is telling and make no mistake we are in deep schtuck. A great legacy destroyed . Yet,some are happy,still.

In fairness,he like many others will have seen his soul crushed.Nobody should feel they HAVE TO stay somewhere that is painful and painful is what it was.
Even now,some are making excuses for him as if he can't do that himself.It's incredible.

"we played superb" against Millwall.

Think on that and weep

The owners?
The ever revolving door of football transfer specialists or directors of football or whatever term we give them coming into the football club?
Surely, we have availability in the loan market? We can move there. I can see a couple more coming in before the end. Didn't the mod of this forum say we have two signings 'ear marked'

He bought a sub standard GK and a couple of CH's when we were already well stocked in that department.

& this is a big problem for the club, I’m the same bored watching us which I haven’t felt since Sousa.

I’m a ST holder can’t imagine people spunking 30 notes on watching Martins dross.

Hoping we have a new gaffer in charge for the Brum game.

I reckon he’s got until end of September after the transfer window has well and truly closed. If after that our revenue and league position are still heading south then that’s it for him.

We cant wait that long.If we are that far behind at the end of September it will be hard for a new coach to get it back. We will have to win points and possession stats dont provide them.

My partner took the kids to the game yesterday and I watched the game on IPTV. I turned it off after 30 mins and turned on the PlayStation.

The only problem now is my partner and youngest child doesn't want to attend again because the two games they have seen was Blackburn and Luton, poor souls. So I will have to watch them now every game, I don't deserve it.

The saving grace if there is a new coach is the winter break due to the World Cup. I can’t see the majority of our team going to that so it will hopefully give some breathing space.

I think he'll be gone as soon as the window slams shut. That way the yanks won't have to promise to support a new manager with funds for new signings immediately.

Or he could be gone just before but it'll take time to find a successor as there never appears to be a good succession plan in place.
