If martin stays they won't get 10 points. Terrible manager.

I hope when he gets sacked and it's suggested would we want Rylan someone tells Tan and Co that we are referring to Russell Martin as our idiots could appoint Rylan Clarke.

Re: Southampton fans are leaving the stadium

Would have him here tbf.

Gives some banter is about as much as I can think why anyone would dislike him.

Can't be because he's ex Swansea as most would have been happy with Cooper, or the majority of their ex managers really.

Interesting assessment. What do you think makes him cowardly and a fraud?

He's out of his depth.

He's certainly no fraudster, have you ever seen a coach who believes in his system and philosophy as much as Martin does? To the point of being Puerile in it's delivery. I find it fascinating in the fact that he rarely deviates, an almost Evangelical take on Football tactics. Deluded maybe, although who the **** am i to criticise, he certainly had our number.

The problem is which football club is going to allow him the time to refine and develop his system? And that's if it will ever come to fruition. He's definitely niche.

Precisely. I can think of many descriptions of Martin, but a fraud certainly isn't one of them. If anything, the opposite applies. He's so committed to his football philosophy that it transcends being authentic - it's closer to being crazy.

The 'cowardly' claim is equally puzzling under the circumstances.

Cooper didn’t behave like a dick.
