What was it he said “I’m not here to grind out results”. The Nods who defended him must be feeling very stupid now. I think you'll find that result has everyone feeling vindicated. Those that supported Martin will say nothing has changed. Those that didn't will say we showed some fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midfield_General Posted Sunday at 16:33 Share Posted Sunday at 16:33 The main difference was that despite playing poorly (because we're a poor side), we were still in the game with 80 mins on the clock because we hadn't gifted them a few goals to see us out of it by half time. We could easily have nicked something from those corners at the end, despite not deserving it. Everyone knows that if you set up to defend competently, you always have a chance at getting something out of a game, whether you deserve it or not. But that basic concept is something that Martin has apparently never understood, because he doesn't believe in outdated concepts like 'grinding out results to get your team points'. It's such an utterly bizarre mindset. Thank god he's gone. 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egg Posted Sunday at 16:38 Share Posted Sunday at 16:38 32 minutes ago, Turkish said: Well in less than a week Rusk has got us looking far more solid than Rusty ever did Yep. He couldn't and didn't give the players any self belief. I heard recently how Lallana spoke up in the dressing room earlier in the season and told the players that there was as much talent in there as Brighton had, and that they had to believe in themselve and give a bit more. The tactics asked of them set them up to fail though, but the performances today and against Liverpool, will help massively in that respect. As Duck says, the fact that the under 21 manager has done more in a week than RM did all season says it all. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangkoksaint Posted Sunday at 16:39 Share Posted Sunday at 16:39 (edited) If we’d just paid a bit more money/salary and got Delap in, or similar and sacked Russ 10 games ago we’d actually have a decent chance of staying up. Unfortunately it’s too little too late. Edited Sunday at 16:40 by bangkoksaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately it’s too little too late. 2 different issues. Delap, for me, did not look like the answer based on last seasons performances. Archer looked a better option for me. Regardless, RM wouldn't have got a tune out of Delap anyway. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam is probably less of a fan of Copycats on TVS on Saturday nights in the eighties, so Mike Osman not quite the same star power. His record at Stoke wasn't that great so he could have easily signed for us and we'd hate him anyway. Edited 23 hours ago by CB Fry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatlesaint Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago He’ll get a job in the Championship, the Premier League will be a fair few years of learning not to be so bloody stubborn away cos at the moment if he went somewhere, got them up this season or next then their fate will be the same as ours.

He wont get a team promoted from Championship unless he has one of the best squads like he did with us, his teams always concede lots of goals as we know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
