Pinnacle therefore used the name of MLT to add respectability to the bid which they succeeded in doing , and their bid was all froth with no substance backing it up. Why were they therefore givren extended exclusivity

Yes - unlucky apparently to lose his job to Adams

Just announced on Solent

Didn't Bill Shankly call John McGrath an animal - another one for the animal kingdom !!

There is an expression - Aim for the stars and you will shoot above the treetops Perhaps AP may realise that top two is very difficult but if that is his aim then the play offs may be a realty

Heaven help the player we eventually choose !! Low expectations we do not do!! I already feel I own 1% of the player !

I have watched moments like this between KD and his defence before. They are like watching a slow motion horror story being enacted in front of you. It is definitely a lack of communication and yesterday is not the only time its happened by any means and its needs sorting with Kelvin and his backs getting their acts together

Yes it is an excellent choice Appointments such Keegan and Strachan would have generated huge expectations from us that if they had been unable to meet could have backfired. We have got a decent and experienced manager that we can get behind who has been given time to build the squad into a promotion winning team

done £10

A win every now or again would be a novelty !!

I'll sponsor for £5

Is there a Southampton born player amongst that lot

I am surprised that Torquay have not put in for Poke. He was a big part of their success last season

It's not just about the 10 point penalty though is it. Expectations are that come the first day of the new season we will start winning yet we yet have to see a manager in place, we are in need of many new players, we don't have a captain and It always takes time for the new players to gel with each other. It is going to be difficult for quite a while

Yes definitely - He has his work cut out though!!

It is not Liebherr that will push plans through but ABP and this is by no means a shoe in. Whether it is in the economic interest it eventually goes through is one thing but do not underestimate the opposition to it Should it one day go through - I hope that Liebherr are considered pole position for the supply of container port facilities.

ML has made all the right noises and I for one am delighted to have him on board. He and his family do have business links with the City particularly the Port of Southampton which apparently is going to raise the whole issue of the Dibden Bay development once again. If this controversial project does get the go ahead and in these economic times probably stands a better chance than before, we may be seeing a few more Liebherr Cranes in our Port !!

As is Paul Sturrocks - Plymouth, Sheffield W, Swindon

Wednesday 2.00pm

Wembley please

Radio Solent are just stating that Strachan is currently unwilling to comment on speculation he may be the next manager -

Don't underestimate the -10. Play offs will be great and possibly achieveable but the seasons starts soon and we have a lot of rebuilding to do and new players will have to gel. Top half of league would be a good finish

I think 19C is having an emotional moment - Can't get over the loss of Wotte !!

I wonder if it could be Coppell - Could tie in with the Murty signing
