Speaks well. Extremely honest about what we find ourselves in.
I particularly picked up on him saying there aren't many speakers in this group, unlike other club's he's been at. Sitting in the Stan Bowles stand yesterday the only two people talking at all were Martin and Balogun. Everyone else, apart from Paal having an argument with Martin after the first goal and having to be held back, was as quiet as a mouse. The only others that talk on occasion are Field and Dieng.
I thought it was good of Martin to stand up and do an interview. I like that he's in the ref's face all game, that he battles away, not always with success but he does try and put a shift in. I can't say that others don't, but this is a group almost self conditioned to lose!
Would like him to start naming names, saying who offers what etc,. Dont think we would have anything to loose even if the fragile/malingerers ones are outed.
Same as I doubt booing**** the team when they step foot on the pitch might just gee them up as trying to get behind them doesnt work with this lot.
ps I still havnt booed the team so far as whats the point****
Talks well off the pitch but I am more interested in what he and the others do on the pitch. To quote Elvis a little less conversation and more action required.

Speaks excellently. Arguably the right person for the captaincy in our circumstances. Just need to work out now how to best play with him and Dykes in the team. Given what we will have available on Wednesday I would go 4-2-2-2 with Laird and Paal at full backs, Dozzell and Field holding, Chair and Willock (to start) roaming and Dykes and Martin up front.

Not with their backs to goal nodding things down for no one. Running onto things in front of them in the air, in the area would be good. Not taking balls down from the clouds.
I agree with one of the other comments. He speaks like a manager.

He was brought in as emergency cover for Dykes after it became apparent Dykes was out long term. The fact we’re now pinging our hopes on this guy because he sounds sensible and intelligent when he talks, and more worrying we view a Dykes/Martin strike force as our best option for survival is a major concern. Moreso because the manager seems to think the same thing.

Standards at the club have been in the bin for years. Remember Ramsey insisting SW-P got an ovation in that game when we were getting turned over by City. At what other professional club would that happen?

When Chris Martin is your most dedicated pro at the club you know your in the Sh1t
And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

Selection now is virtually as effective as spinning the old Holloway tombola.
Injuries mean we have no decent midfield options other than Field. Dunne and Dickie are a disaster pairing at CB. Willock is a shell of the player he was.
My only suggestion is pushing Field back as an extra CB and going 352 like we did against Watford. But even then...
We're basically screwed. In case anyone hadn't already noticed.

Obviously our squad has been consistently poor for months but we've got to change things dramatically on Wednesday. There is no way he can play Dunne and Albert on that right-hand side or Dozzell in a midfield two again. Surely?

Dozzell couldn’t hold his own cock in the men’s room. Shouldn’t be anywhere near the starting line up.

Unfortunately with Amos gone there isn't much choice in midfield. Personally I'd like to see Field and Richards starting, but the cupboards bare otherwise. Jojo's a spent force and Dozzell's just ... dozy.

Just wanted to be certain, this was a tongue in cheek comment
No. I'm being completely serious.
I'm even thinking that he actually filmed it as ammunition to get Ainsworth removed and himself instated as the new, intelligent and coherent manager of QPR.

Agree 100% 75th minute sub at best no question he tries and much credit to him for his efforts. But if GA thinks he is in anyway the answer that by starting him in the final four games that is going to get us out of this mess we have managed to get ourselves in, then GA really needs after the Bristol City game to sadly take time to consider his position at QPR
