The hate levels for Russell Martin escalated today as the hipster manager watched his side lose 2-0 at home to Hearts.

When Hearts fans sang ‘You’re Getting Sacked in the Morning’ close to the final whistle their big cousins joined in!

After five SPFL matches, three of them at Fortress Ibrox, Martin has four points to show for his efforts with the loyal bears screaming for their manager to be replaced before the match started.

As Lawrence Shankland stepped up to take a penalty in the 82nd minute chants of โ€˜Martin, Martin Get tae F**kโ€™ rang around the half empty stadium.

Shankland popped the rebound past Super Jack Butland as the Subway Loyal made an early getaway.

Those that stayed on were vocal in their feelings for Martin who feels that the new American owners have been super supportive of his soccer masterplan.

Andrew Cavenagh visited Murray Park before the draw with Celtic to deliver a rallying call but 12 matches into the Revolution Martin has won just three matches with one of them coming at home to Alloa in the League Cup.

Next up for the angry bears is a League Cup tie at home to Hibs with most bears knowing that Derek McInnes would have been a far better choice as manager.

Hearts opened the scoring in the 21st minute when Shankland shot low past Super Jack who is expected to deliver the post match media excuses.

Steven McLean decided to play seven minutes of stoppage time but there was no threat from the home side who have scored three SPFL goals this season with the only one at Ibrox coming from Tavpen in the 1-1 draw against Dundee.

At the final whistle Martin went straight down the tunnel, presumably to phone his mum to tell her that he’s loving his new job in Scotland educating the Sweaties on his soccer knowledge.

    The huns are shite, and if slimeball Liewell gets his way, we will be slightly less shitey.

    Preserve the O.F. at all costs.

    Get rid of this monkey bastard, pronto.

    And it should really have been 0-3 at the end!
    Is the Bold Bazza polishing his brown brogues tonight? ๐Ÿ™‚

    And separately, as a fellow critic of the risible SMSM sports ‘journalists’ footy output (copy/ paste), over the years,

    I have to admit that Michael Gannon’s piece in The DR today about the BR presser is rather, shockingly good.

    Best SMSM footy article I’ve read since I can’t remember.

    Title: “The eight words BR chose to end astonishing Celtic address expertly recognises a sideshow.”

    After being tipped off by my nephew regarding the score, with the new huns losing 2-0 to the diet huns, I had to have a wee gloat on followfollow. Not disappointed. One rabid clown going on about who must leave ended by saying “Drain the swamp,” That really appealed to my sense of humour as it was typed by ‘pond-life’. Drain the swamp indeed!
    Yeeeha!

    Poor wee souls, and they totally bought into the hunners n hunners o millions that the yanks were bringing.
    Sold out and now they just have to sit n suffer cos the screams canny be heard across the Atlantic.

    Russell, seems like a nice guy, Martin, will head off into the sunset shortly. Similar to his predecessor Phil and a growing collection of others, he will wait for the bolt through the napper with the pain somewhat eased by a few zillion escudos paid into his nominated accounts. Barry McMurty ready to step in in for the club he loves, the new Murty, much like the old Murty. His BBC mates / press gang have started the canvassing and have brogues at the ready
