The other serious point in this delay is that the pool of available decent-ish managers might even diminish if Bournemouth or Leeds, say, decide to pull the plug pronto. All the more reason for SR to actually get real and get it bloody well done.

Bradley the Pit, look you

Perhaps they are shorting the betting markets, waiting for the odds to rise again after saying no decision imminent, lumping on, and then axing him, thereby affording his compensation. Moneyball genius in every way, that Ankersen

Southampton owners Sport Republic are ‘reviewing the position’ of manager Nathan Jones #saintsfc @talkSPORT slightly more positive

He’s now 2/9 to be next manager to go with Paddy Power

Offering Jones leave for health issues may be a way out saving face for all concerned

V good. Blackmore spoke very well.

If there was a scrap my money would be Jones down in round one. Lavia probably clocked him for his sarcy comments. Or Che kicked him by accident whilst trying to take a pen.

💯 The man is completely divisive and must be sacked at the first opportunity, if only for the comments and general unwellness

I don’t see the big issue here about saving face. We all know it’s a cock up. They must know it’s a cock up. And to do nothing will cost them inordinately more than biting the bullet now. Still, they did procrastinate too long over Ralph. So they have history. Hope they see sense tonight and do it tomorrow. Even they can surely act with so much noise around. Surely?

We need ABJ. Anyone but Jones

Oh well in that case nothing to see here. We’ll be fine.

Can we get back to slagging Jones off please? Cheers. 🤪

It’s beyond Christmas so probably still applies, but fair enough

did they? Wow. Stand corrected.

No team at the bottom at Christmas has survived pretty much nails it

Wife’s not happy the mortgage is on it, mind 😀

I got him at 5-1 this morning

This. And amplified by the media with the examples of MoTD comments and those of Adam Blackmore. Hopefully public shaming of this sort might penetrate SR's seemingly rhino strength thick skin.

think if it doesn't happen by tomorrow night it's not happening (unless Wolves get 10)

Cracking player, that Sunken Cost Fallacy

Not heard any leeks. hahahahah Gallows humour. God I hate him.

And possibly our board

That was probably just the money I put on tbf

You can still get 5-1 on paddy power. Seems generous.
