Senior Players Want Russell Martin Back 10:04 - Nov 3 with 2148 viewsSaintNick

According to the Daily Echo, but that would not be a good thing, not just from Martin's issues last season, but the fact that pandering to player power is never goo.

Given that senior players would be Jack Stephens who cant get in this team, Joe Aribo who wants to leave anyway & Flynn Downes who seems to be ill every week and several others who are not first choice, its not that good on that account either

If there ever was a reason not appoint him that's it.

Alfie House of the echo says there is virtually no chance of this happening.
Martin left under a cloud. The owners don't like him anymore and apparently the feeling is mutual.

I can understand that they would want him back. Rusty always treated them like mates and told them they were such good players they could pass it round any team in the PL, all they needed was to be "brave". Unfortunately that's not reality. The reality is that in PL terms they're sh1t players and sh1t players can't win games in the PL by playing possession football.

Bringing Rusty back would be a disaster. We need a long term plan that includes winning games in the PL. That means having a style that can be played by mediocre players. WS promised one style that could do that (high tempo, pressing) but never delivered. We need to keep the long term plan in mind with this appointment. Yes, we need to win championship games first, but there's no point getting promoted with a style that will inevitably fail in the PL.

Totally agree. Think the last time we pandered to player power was with Sturrock from recollection and the rest was history as they say

I'd rather play the youth team and start again in League 1 than pander to RM's mates.

Is Russell Martin a darts fan, I wonder? I got this from a newspaper article: Jack Stephens and Alex McCarthy are good mates who watch darts together on the team bus. They also watch goals go in together at St Mary's. (I added that last bit)

Just shows that these players were not playing for Will Still. They want their mate back. But Will Still was too young, not authoritarian and inexperienced to kick them into shape.

Poll: Should Will Still be sacked?

That would be the Senior Players who have been absolute shite all season ? No way should Martin be anywhere Saints again.

Our strikers relaxed with a game of darts after the Preston game.
