I wish someone would headhunt Ankersen in the traditional, Captain Cook, sense.

Hopefully it all gets right on his tits, and winds up the skinny almond milk latte gang - which it clearly does 😀

As Melton told me this morning, in the meat by-products game ‘Walls have ears’ - whereas Greggs have snouts and Bowyers the arseholes. It’s a jungle out there.

Fucking hell, was he formerly involved in Project Treadstone?

That system worked well last time out.

Hopefully no relatives who post on here, as that was painful last time, what a position to be in. One plus is that as he is called Russell and is a vegan, Bhuddist, Green Party member from Brighton, the bingo machine eyes, tough mining town spiel and psychosis should be kept in check, relatively.

Rasmus is expediting this so he can test out his ground-breaking subliminal messaging theory in the Championship (which we are lucky to be in...). Throughout each game a picture of his face will appear for a millisecond followed by second frame which alternately states 'football genius' or 'goldmine effect'. He oversaw the installation of similar screens on Dragan Solak's yacht during 2021.

I've also heard that a third brother, Melton, is taking over the catering. Famous for his crimped crust. Nepotism rife at SMS!

My experience is when meeting such characters in the workplace is simply to smile and give them enough rope. Never fails.

Like with many board set ups I assume it’s majority rule, so a numerical union of Kraft and Solak could have him escorted from the premises. Similarly a lot of big business seems to work like a poker game, money inevitably wins out.

He's looking decidedly peaky there, like a man who doesn't know what he's talking about or doesn't actually believe it. Either the new puffin moss extract eczema cream is playing up or Dragan has recently installed a trapdoor under the helmet's chair in the Boardroom.

I genuinely assumed that the NJ debacle would see the forced cessation of little Rasmus Ankersen's soccerball work experience programme, with Solak and Kraft closing ranks. Not so sure given the current jungle drums, but early days perhaps. Worst case scenario would be the uber-narcissist Ankersen pressing ahead with his data-advised choice and Wilcox deciding he wont be moving south after all.

A controversial opinion...

I like what I've seen of McKenna, team plays good attacking football, and comes over as a serious and studious football manager. Better than the other 'up and coming' prospects mentioned IMO and In many ways reminds me of David Moyes when he was breaking through, and we (Rampart Lowe that is) should have got him.

On recent form I wouldn't trust them to run a hotdog stand. Ankersen would probably install a fruitarian to run it and insist it focussed all resources on wheatgrass smoothies.

Christ, reading this thread it is genuinely starting to feel like deju vu with the prelude to the fittest man in the world. I know the majority on here take the piss out of Ankersen but if he is driving this appointment, as he was with Jones, you have to feel for his mental health and the health of our club on the back of it.

Late surge from smokin’ Joe Aribo, finally seeing some pace!

This is the article sellotaped to Rasmus's headboard: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/nov/23/russell-martin-footballer-joined-green-party-walsall

At that time the Winks links were terrifying as he was bona fide shite, but on balance I now wish we had gone for him rather than Ainsley.

Don’t like the sound of this, given the malaise at SFC we need paleo diet, Referendum party, diabolist and personality disorder on the CV as a starting point.

Another vote for smokin’ Joe Aribo.

Thank goodness WG, I've been having sleepless nights

The Danish bell will likely have it linked to his Tinder spreadsheets.

Agree with this with the grating escape of the Boscombe bucket rattlers.

For the record I would be happy with Viera, and think we might be a good fit for him in a way that Palace weren't. If he emulates any of our former 'top player' managers of the last 20 years (all of whom had skidmarks on their CVs prior to joining Saints) we will be competitive in the Championship very quickly. Authority and the motivation of talented youngsters wont be a problem for PV.
