Martin has just said that he has already spoken to stewart and thelwell and he has no fear of losing his job. Wow, nothing else to say.
27 Aug 2025 22:38:16
Surely the owners need to step in now . admit the mistake and move forward . watching tav he wanted to say more and held his words.
27 Aug 2025 22:39:42
Surely that was before our 6-0 drubbing tonight.
27 Aug 2025 22:42:49
If that's true then the they need to be going out the door with him.
27 Aug 2025 22:43:27
Well football tops have been bought. Season tickets bought. 49rs will be in no hurry.
27 Aug 2025 22:43:44
Quite simply F##k the board then.
27 Aug 2025 22:45:06
Fingers crossed the wee lass at the kiosk picks sun team martin ain't got a clue if he ain't away before international break ends god help us.
27 Aug 2025 22:45:09
His interview says it all, still smug and even smiling. Says he has the backing as they know it takes time. His time is up, we are a total mess, can't defend, can't score, pass around our own box, invite pressure and easy over the top balls as we play such a high line. That type of football doesn't work in this league, they need to suck it up and admit his appointment was a mistake and get rid now as we will struggle to finish top 3. I fear a similar scoreline on Sunday.
27 Aug 2025 22:46:51
Thelwell definitely needs to go!
27 Aug 2025 22:47:58
Hopefully those above them will step in.
27 Aug 2025 22:48:10
Fully expect him to lose his job in the morning. If not the new owners intentions with the club need to be called into question. If he's not sacked after that humiliation and the start we have had to the season, the recent performances and lack of results then the 49ers would need to release a statement to the fans explaining what their intentions are and why that clown would still be in a job. Its gross negligence letting that man carry on in his position.
He's destroying the club and by what he said in his interview after the game, he's got Stewart's and Thelwell backing doing it. It's a disgrace, he's the worst manager in our history.
27 Aug 2025 22:49:42
Well that just confirms that they both need to go too.
27 Aug 2025 22:57:38
I just don't see how he survives this of course Thelwell will back him he basically got him the job and brought most of the players in, I've had a season ticket fo over forty years and seen this before but not as bad as this once the fans turn on you its very hard to survive i can't see him surviving a defeat on Sunday and its all over.
27 Aug 2025 22:58:44
I suspect when Cavenagh and 49ers Enterprises attend the Old Firm game on Sunday they will get an insight in to the feelings of the fans. I struggle to see what we have in the locker to take anything from that game. Just when you think we are as low as we can get….
27 Aug 2025 22:59:55
Just wait til the tims are 5 up at half time and there's only Celtic fans left in ibrox. My sons (8) 1st old firm sunday. Really don't want to take him but he's depserate to go. There will be mass protests.
27 Aug 2025 23:04:59
The board are a joke if they haven't got the balls to sack this clown.
27 Aug 2025 23:12:53
The smugness on his face saying he's spoke to thelwell and Stewart and got there backing made me boil ?.
27 Aug 2025 23:27:31
If the americans don't sack him tomoz then they have set the club back years, we will finish in bottom 6 with this clown in charge.
27 Aug 2025 23:32:22
So Stewart and Thelwell are still backing him after that well it's basically two fingers up to the fans I've had it with this clown its now embarrassing if RM had any balls he would have walked after that how can he lead the team out on sunday.
27 Aug 2025 23:33:15
How many managers get the "dreaded vote of confidence" seen it so many times. The board back the manager then the next poor result he's off! Most probably already working on a contingency I reckon.
27 Aug 2025 23:39:23
Thelwell at Everton was in charge of transfers and the such, its clear now that he was reason they were in a mess on and off the pitch. Patrick Stewart was at Manchester United for about 10 years in various positions and again they where/ are a complete mess so there's no wonder we're a mess. They both have to go to and that will be a lot of money down, Koppen should still be here.
27 Aug 2025 23:40:32
He isn't the right fit for us and I think most of us knew that before a ball was kicked. We had to give him the benefit of the doubt and now we have it's just clearly not working. I wish it was but it isn't. We need to cut our loses and move on…. What's the solution? Personally I'd have Stevie G back but that's up for debate but what I've said about Martin is hard to debate unfortunately! Even a win on Sunday would be papering over the cracks….
27 Aug 2025 23:41:35
I actually felt sorry for butland tonight.
Souttar is awful and doesn't speak
Aaron's is actually rotten
Djiga just completely lost and doesn't have a scooby to what he's doing in this system
Meghoma has been completely hung out to dry
Aasgaard just wandering around doing absolutely zero
Rothwell looks unfit and blowing out his arse
Cameron just running about like a headless chicken
Gassama looks like our only decent signing
Danilo pish never rated him
Antman looked great till Martin got his hands on him
Not 1 single player looks comfortable in any phase of play.
27 Aug 2025 23:41:57
There should be no questions, he needs to go tomorrow.
I don't care who takes over for the meantime, any half decent coach will be able to set up a team and get rid of the toxicity.
28 Aug 2025 01:41:45
This smarmy clown has got to go in the morning-
give literally anyone the job short term I can't see them doing worse.
this was coming - its sad to say but I was hoping at one point would end up 8/ 9/ 10 tonight if it ensured he's gone-
has to go we are literally going to struggle to make top 6 with this guy in charge.
surely Celtic destroy us unless they play for a draw to ensure he's not bagged if he's still in charge - if i was Celtic i'd want rusell martin in charge of Rangers for as long as possible
I had to give up my season ticket a few years ago, so glad at the moment as i would not and will not be back until he's sacked.
28 Aug 2025 03:15:23
If peoe stop turni g up to games they will move pretty fast as revenue matchday will be lost.
28 Aug 2025 03:15:45
Sponsors will not want associated with losing team.
28 Aug 2025 06:51:39
Did anyone get the feeling that tavs interview was rehearsed being very articulate in what he's saying. His body language couldn't stand still looking at the ground in front off him.
28 Aug 2025 07:00:57
Im fully expecting him about til after the weekend. He'll have special dispensation with those making the decision because of that early red card; that said if it were for his absolutely gash tactics Aarons probably wouldn't have been in that position.
Celtic win Sunday and he's gone - i hope. Our squad has thrown managers far better than him under the bus and i fully expect it against them lot.
28 Aug 2025 07:52:56
Was like the majority at his appointment willing to give him the benefit of the doubt watched the preseason games and the seeds of doupt as i could not see any improvement league started and we were bad and it all culminated in that display last night could not watch us getting dismantled so only heard RM this morning what can you say to his comments we have Celtic on sunday can see the same score as they will go for the jugular he has to go.
28 Aug 2025 10:45:33
Get him out and approach Hearts for McIness.
28 Aug 2025 13:34:10
Stewart Thelwell and Martin couldn't run a raffle, I think agents must be bunging this crowd of imposters .
Big Ange got a job yet?
