CB Fry

Shame they haven't got enough to start naming names. Anyway, I thought I'd ask the forum to name their favourite managers. Here's my favourite managers that I have decided to list here. I wonder if anyone else would also like to list their favourite managers? Pardew McClaren Pearson Pulis Phil Brown Hughes Mccarthy Warnock Garry Monk Tim Sherwood Brendan Rodgers Gus Poyet

Lallana signed a five year contract in 2013 so I'm saying we won't sell him until 2017 but only if someone is desperate.

Who's up for a bit of a who's next sweepstake. More revelations by about 10:30 tonight. I'm going Pardew. And Nigel Pearson, who's clocked that he's been stung and confessed during today rather than waiting for the inevitable.

Jesus Christ.

Minutes silence for little Sammy Lee.

Sky/BBC news not gone with it yet.

100% perfect record. Going out at the top.

Looks like he's gone. Didn't even set foot on the Wembley pitch as England boss. What a plank. Gareth Southgate in. Gawd help us.

You're thinking of Graham Fellowes, playing John Shuttleworth. Different person.

This and this. What we've done is put us in a great position to get "Pogba" money, but if someone comes forward with £60m then a) we'd take it and b) any club offering that for a CB is a club VVD would want to join. The five years thing is a red herring. The one thing it absolutely doesn't mean is he's staying for five years.

We won't sell anyone in January- we haven't done up to now and we won't start in 2017. VVD off for mega money in the summer? Probably, more than likely. I'm ready for it.

I, for one, heartily welcome this completely brand new poster Larry15. If you need any help with how this forum works Larry, what with you being new to it and everything, then do let me know. Always great to have new posters like Larry new on the forum especially when they are completely new. Welcome new person.

Made me laugh anyway.

It won't be long before the big clubs are once again paying newspapers to run negative stories about us.

It's times like this I really regret us not appointing Walter Zenga.A huge missed opportunity.

We're much weaker than we were last season or something so he should stroll into the side.

2/10.

Jamie Redknapp said "this Southampton side are exceptional".

That JWP open-play goal is easily the most momentous thing to ever happen in that stadium.

Like to have seen Cuco play, but really can't fault the team sheet. Let's hope we win what is clearly a winnable game.

Souness - quit Jones - gardening leave/paid off Hoddle- quit Gray - sacked Strachan - quit Sturrock - mutual Wigley - sacked Scum - quit Burley - quit Pearson - not renewed/sacked Jan- sacked Wotte - sacked Pards- sacked Nigel- sacked Poch- quit Koeman- quit

If it is true that Ronald wouldn't have joined without Erwin (which is debatable) then that's the point I was making, completely proved, by you. Ronald assembled and appointed the backroom staff that came in with him. Ronald appointed Erwin. Thanks for agreeing with me. But well done on being so spectacularly, spectacularly dumb.

They would not have appointed Erwin without Ronald. Ronald put his backroom team together, Ronald appointed Erwin Koeman to join him at Southampton. My recommendation to you is don't try and act the clever fu ck and correct me when you're thick as mince.

Cohen is pretty much always great. This passage perfectly sums up the issue, as played out by Corbynistas on here and, especially, in the Guardian comments section which is home for the utterly deranged these days. Thankfully I only ever read them and don't join in, I'd probably be moderated out of there within 48 hours if I did anyway. Anyway, here he is, making the point that the Corbynidiots think they are the only people who have ever thought about social justice or fairness in society... "Utopias are always banal. Corbyn’s Utopia allows his supporters to wallow in the warmth of self-righteousness. They want to end austerity. Stop greed. Bring peace. How they do it is not their concern. Practicalities are dangerous. They take you away from utopia and back into the messy, Blairite realm of compromises and second-bests. Anyone who knows history knows that utopianism can justify viciousness. By his supporters’ reasoning, leftists who are against Corbyn must be in favour of poverty, greed and war. All tactics are justified in the struggle against such monsters." The behaviour of the Momentum mentalists to the Labour MP in Brighton - literally the only Labour MP for miles and miles and miles and miles around - is this thinking writ large. The sea of blue constituencies surrounding him aren't the problem across that swathe of SE England, but the solitary "Red Tory" scumbag is and he must be deselected forthwith. Mental, mental, mental.

So they appoint Ronald Koeman and then by a miraculous coincidence the senior leadership of the club just happened to appoint Erwin Koeman to the coaching team without any input whatsoever from the manager they'd just brought in. You really, really sure about that?
