The man we should have got instead of McDoughnut.

Except he turned us down.

Why on earth dose'nt he get his side playing like this earlier in the season, it's a bit puzzling.

He turned us down because Lerner decided to write a nicely written letter to Mr David Whelan and asked him politely if we could chat with his friend Roberto. If we had gone straight to Martinez and offered him a job, he would have definitely taken it. Having Dave Whelan turn his head for 5 days pulling the guilt card kept him there.

Whatever happens in the Wigan game. At least Martinez has the balls to send his team out to have a go, unlike our constant pathetic surrenders.

Not necessarily. He's obvious got a bond with Whelan.

That's massively overstated.  Whelan is a total twunt, who'd sack Martinez without a second thought if it suited him.

Which is exactly why he would have been unwelcome here. We'd have loved him for the way he's got his team playing now, but been calling for him to go long before.

Of course.

Wigan's application against Man United, and thus far at Arsenal is admirable, but they've been beyond pathetic for most of the season.

Sad, but very true.
