To back your manager blind or to resent him?
That is the question.
TO BACK
Means a much more peaceful existence. A que sera sera feel to the day and overall pride in the club.
Moyes was the Everton manager and to a man the belief was that he was the right man for the job - even though it has been proved that Martinez could do better.
Do I wish I had Moyes Out banners for the last decade? I don't think so.
Ferguson was Manchester United and you would have done well to find anyone apart from Mourinho or Wenger who thought that he underachieved.
The fans loved backing him - Anderson purchases and all.
Benitez was an excellent example. He split the fans. The ones who backed him had a terrific experience. Those who sang Di Matteo's name and called Rafa porky had an uncomfortable time of it. Some didn't even travel to important games in defiance.
TO RESENT
Brings a feeling of mild schizophrenia. Like getting her home, not fancying her but going through the motions anyway - highly unsatisfactory!
P.S Gaffers - pl. stick this on the Liverpool, Chelsea and Everton boards too. Ta.
UNWAVERING MANAGER LOYALTY

Wash your contacts out - Martinez has transformed the footballing skills of every player!

It appears he has, yes, yet he could still finish the season in 7th spot which is no better than Moyes.

Absolut!
What is Pelligrini doing with Demichelis? - Would you have thrown Rodwell into that boxing ring?
Conclusion : Believe!
Why did Jose let Lukaku go if he only had Ba / Torres & Eto? - Because he has no plans for the kid, he can take points off the opposition and make them a profit come the summer.
Why did Wenger only sign one player when he should of brought 3? - Because he hates undermining his first team. If he'd bought the finished article every year, the likes of Fabregas, Van Persie, Wilshere or Ramsay would never have made it.

Exactly! This whole Martinez is amazing malarky is hilarious. Yes, he makes the team player better but so what? If you're going to be 5th-7th what difference does it make?
The loan signings have been brilliant, will you get all those permanently? The squad depth hasn't changed massively.

I fail to see why I need to. Can I not become an Evertonian because Martinez makes you play all fancy?

Thank you OP.
Like I said, he may help your players play all fancy but he's not making your club over-achieve or make it appear that Moyes under-achieved.
