📉 The sack race

If he gets another job

Some of the comments on the BBC, not sure if Tony had his tongue in his cheek when he made his comment :-

We asked for your views on Russell Martin, who has been dismissed by Southampton after Sunday’s defeat to Tottenham.

Here are some of your comments:

Noel: Best outcome. Martin was completely out of his depth and too arrogant to change the tactics. Please bring in a Premier League manager with the strength to kick a few butts and have a plan B. My choice is Graham Potter.

Chris: The sacking of Martin was as inevitable as it is pointless. Just more money (that we don’t have) down the drain. He’s proved that he can get us promoted. Should’ve saved the money, planned for next season and then sack him at the end of next season, regardless of whether we get promoted or not.

Ian: The lack of quality in the squad wasn’t down to Martin, but his inability to recognise that they couldn’t successfully execute his way of playing certainly was.

Tony: Should have done it weeks ago. Only someone like big Sam or Tony Pulis has any chance of saving us now.

Paul: Deluded board at Southampton. I can’t see the point of sacking Martin at this stage of the season. Who in their right mind will want the job now?

Charles: I think it’s a bit late to stop relegation but perhaps give Gary O’Neil the job until the end of the season because he has a point to prove - unlike David Moyes who has had his time.

David Moyes has had his time? - 18 months ago he was lifting a European trophy - That is exactly the kind of has bean we could do with

When moaning at RM imagine Bompey paying ÂŁ10m for Semenyo

We paid ÂŁ22m plus bonuses for Sulemanna

Amongst others

Not all his fault

To be fair, his system and what he wanted to do is great… you just need either world class players or play in a lower league where the attacking quality is poorer…

It was his inability to change as we all know… he could quite well with a Bayern Munich!

Perhaps he should get back there?

Amazingly his name alone will get him another job, ‘‘Wayne Rooney’s Portsmouth’’ has a nice ring to it though :smiling_imp:

Potter in to replace him, apparently

Talkshyte may have jumped too early, it seems.

The Cunt Crook is probably to blame.

Trudeau gone
Maybe hcdajfu?
Oh wait

So he finally got sacked.
What a mess - supposed to have gone earlier but Potter refused the contract. Wet spam had to go back with a longer term and improved offer
They make Sports Republic appear merely incompetet

Potter has basically told ‘em to drop their trousers, assume the position and sign a very lucrative contract to pay mega bucks on the inevitable sacking.

Good skills.

Dyche has gone
