Craighoyland1 Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 An on-line Martinez out petition has been created by an unhappy Everton fan a few hours ago and seems to be gathering pace. It currently has 619 signatures in favour of sacking Roberto Martinez. My own personal take on this is as fans we seem to very good at expressing our opinion of wanting him out but not so keen on doing much about it. Maybe we've come to accept mediocrity and are happy to wallow in it. I however, am not one of those people who accepts the mediocre and thinks just because that's the way it's been for a long time why should we expect any different. We have two choices, we can either continue to complain and just hope that something happens or we can do something productive, try and get our voices heard and make it happen. Below is the link to the petition and before anybody comes back with shouts of kopite behaviour, save it for somebody else, somebody else who believes this great club deserves another season of mediocrity under the clueless manager we currently have. https://www.change.org/p/everton-martinez-out?recruiter=249940026&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 I don't want to get involved in an argument here, however as much as I think he is not right for the job, I refuse to join in a witch hunt of this nature. It is just plain nasty. Find a replacement before you leave us managerless. Btay, Chach and efc1111 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chalkpie Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 An interim is probably already in the works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 "Statistically we have got one of the best teams in the history of Everton yet we are 12th in the premier league"? Statistically we are 12th, the opinion we have one of the best teams in Everton's history is just that, opinion (presume she means her thoughts on squad/potential which I'd not disagree with totally). Badly worded though, don't agree and won't be signing. RobA34, Btay and Chach 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 If you want your voice heard get down the Goodison Park on a match day and do some shouting. If enough people agree with you they will join in, I promise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Newty82 Posted April 4, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 I've been a backer of Martinez. At the moment I'm pissed off with him. But see shit like this? This pisses me off more. Is this by the same fans who paid to fly a banner stating 'Kenwright Out'? Is it the same fans that have heckled Stones, Barkley and Howard? I sometimes wonder what a section of our 'fans' are upto. I'm assuming a post like this is going on numerous forums trying to drum up support. To have 700 odd signatures after 8 hours is piss poor. Let's just try and get behind the team as we chase some elusive silverware and then we can fight it out at the end of the season.

johnh Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 700 signatures in 8 hours - I thought that was quite good standing out in the rain at the Pier Head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 I hope our club does not bow to this sort of thing. I want the club to replace RM now but will support the club whichever direction they take. Club should be ran by a board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 I don't like the idea of a petition. It shouldn't take one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kankurette Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 It won't work. If you're going to protest against Martinez, make like the kopites or Charlton / Villa fans and do it at the match. Kenwright and the club are not going to care about some petition on a site where anyone can make petitions, tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Here's an idea for a protest. If you want Martinez to go immediately, boycott the Semi Final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraccerC Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 A petition? What's the point? It won' make even the slightest bi of difference...futile. MikeO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 here's an idea - rather than make a petition to get rid of Martinez, leave it up to the board and if they don't make the right decision then turn on the board. Makes far more sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
