Is it only people off forums who don't attend games that lay into him continuously ? The fans in the stadium were fully behind him.
Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Indeed there is a few on here that repeat the same nonsense to each other, that’s where the myths come from. As soon as one says it then it becomes a regular use.
Definetly not me. Quite capable of making up my own nonsense ... I mean opinions

If it on a mobile device you download or screenshot a pic or the article, click in editor then yiu can circle it or write on it, do arrows, whatever
Yep it's easy enough. Those inclined tend to ignore the important point you are making if it doesn't help them, this way the point being made is extremely clear.
Anyone denying there was loud boos worthy of being reported on national BBC media (as well as the usual home sourced articles) in their game summary is a liar.
It's literally recorded on tape. Here is one from Forest.
7:45 from Anthony O'Connell - ''And there is a big smile on Steve Coopers face, hugs from Alan Tate. And for Swansea supporters, for many of them, that is the cue for them to head to the exists''
8:03 - furious and loud booing meets the final whistle.
So where is this myth coming from exactly? Its an odd one.

It makes them feel superior Keith 😂
Its trolling Keith, now and again they might slip and say that they are doing it to wind a certain person or people up. Let them know that you are there but ultimately leave them harp on or jump on something that isn't involving them..... Shows them for what they are.

Glad you have realised the error of your ways anyway.

As I said, I’m glad you appear to have seen the errors of your ways.
Take a look who liked my comment… I’m pretty sure he doesn’t take kindly to you suggesting his well written post match write ups aren’t true, which of course you are doing with this current cooked up narrative.
Didn’t think about that did you…

Do we think this is still true?
A lot of didn't think it was true in the first place. After that performance any self respecting fan should be horrified at how bad it can get so quickly.

Looking at it from the point of vie that I have turned against him...no.
Trying to be objective, we beat Blackburn but we had a large portion of luck. We had been rubbish for weeks before that and we returned to rubbish last night. 1 win in 9 is it? A few draws thrown in, football as dire as what Cooper was serving up last season towards the end.
It's NO again from me.
Sport is funny in respect of the fact you can't easily get rid of someone who's doing a rubbish job. Martin knows he's safe financially, even if he's sacked for being rubbish at his job. That gives us a massive problem.

Thats an interesting point isnt it...incompetent football managers get sacked for not doing the job yet get paid up their contract....how often does that happen in other professions
Maybe a club should attempt performance managing a mangaer and dismissing them via the competency route! Without compo!

It wasn’t true, it was one of the nonsense myths cooked up on here to cause conflict as those that had abused those for correctly calling it had nowhere left to turn.
If we lose to Bristol City next I wonder what the reaction will be, it’s the defeats that tell you who has bought into this process, not the wins.
Anyone reckon there will be cheers and clapping with a chanting of the managers name to show this remarkable bond? Or do we think there may be chants of “you don’t know what you’re doing!”, just like the chants “we’ve had a shot!” rang out up at Stoke?
The last two home defeats saw boos echo around the stadium. A defeat against Bristol City would probably ring out even louder than it did against Forest and Luton as the anger from the Stoke game still being raw.
As an aside, 40% in the poll now want Martin out on the other site from nearly 500 votes. I’d say the myth was crumbling, but I don’t think it was ever in a position to crumble, it never had a semblance of reality about it.

With regards to polls, we all, know from elections how reliable they are. They just represent a small cross section of those who can be bothered to give an opinion. There will be no chants of "You don't know what your doing".on Sunday. It may happen, but certainly not yet

I’m sure there isn’t exactly 40% no, but that isn’t the aim of the poll.
It shows that many people are not happy, the exact number is irrelevant.
If we are losing 3-0 at halftime to Bristol City there is absolutely no reason those chants won’t be heard. “We had a shot!” chants tell you that, as soon as irony regarding our ability start being given airtime among the fans, anger is around the corner.

Possibly anger is around the corner but boos and apathy will great them following a defeat or poor performance. The other chants will follow if bad performances continue

The boos have already started long ago.

Erm that is a moot discussion ? I have never questioned that, although it is only a small minority not the majority of the stadium
No it isn’t, it shows we are already down the road of discontent.
We have had the boos, we have had the mocking chants at our ability, there is no reason the angry “sort it out!” or “you don’t know what you’re doing” chants won’t be next.

I won't be booing but I do agree with Dr P. The boos had already started and if the games continue as they are, poor performances and poor results then the booing will grow.
Neither Bob Bradley or Clement got 6 months before the crowd turned. Martin has had a much longer grace period, 6 months now. It might not be so bad for him if he showed some honesty and took his share of the blame instead of throwing blame everywhere except at his own doorstep but now people are calling him out, saying he doesn't know what's going on. A viewpoint I have come around too. I gave him a far crack, I gave him almost 5 months but we are poor to watch and struggling for wins. I guess we are really lucky that there have been points deducted AND there are several really poor teams i this division too. sadly, we are one of those really poor teams. Worse still, I don't think we should be this poor, I think we have the players to be much better but the manager is screwing it up.

Good post.
We are most certainly playing below the capabilities of this squad by some considerable margin, that's the issue here.

I agree with you that we do not have a poor team However Martin needs a reset to get them playing to the best of their abilities otherwise he will suffer the displeasure of the crowd, although calls for his head may be a little bit away. Many fans place great emphasis on the Cardiff game. A poor performance there preceded by a poor run, could be bad news for RM Hopefully he will have us playing better and winning by then
