Another ‘left field’ appointment would appear to be the last thing we need right now. Still’s main claim to fame appears to be that he is known as the young man who went from gamer to manager, that would be the U.K. press angle. Lens under Still’s management are likely to end up in a lower league position than the last two seasons under Montainier and Haise - so he’s not pulled up any trees in a poor league. He has no English football league experience at all, and rather then lift or galvanise a disenfranchised fanbase would likely deepen the current rift between the majority of long suffering fans and a board that has presided over a debacle since the day they arrived. The two permanent appointments made by Sport Republic to this point were both questioned by the majority fanbase on appointment and Still would likely be exactly the same - a work experience / work in progress appointment. From a personal perspective, I think that he is comes across as a chancer in interviews and is the last type of hire required at this point. What makes you think he’s the right fit?

Nothing to do with him being a ‘novice’ manager or otherwise.

Will Still would however be peak Sport Republic, despite us being treated to Nathan Jones. If these bozos are that stupid, season ticket renewals will be the least of their worries.

To me that felt like one of the old Dave Jones sides out there today - all hands to the pumps for 90 minutes against 14 men. Battling for each other. Thought our support was terrific also. Ramsdale totally competent all bar a few loose kicks which were more to do with us having horribly slow and dim forwards. Bednarek was niggling Haaland throughout which was nice to see. Be good to see this saints side show up against Everton and Arsenal.

Nope.

Or, in the case of another Nathan Jones, a skid-mark.

Confirmation that the Board got out safely:

Cleverly is a Hampshire lad to boot - he could move back to Amazingstoke!

By all means be direct and graphic, but that's a very ungentlemanly way to talk about Lucy!

Derby overall. Have some ambition.

💯 this 😂

Ideal then, measurable improvement from 9-0.

Plus it’s an utter shit hole.

Team talks would be passionate.

Back to the future. Never going to happen, but would be hilarious in terms of sport republic’s organisational gymnastics 😊

Ralph Hassenhutl just resigned from Wolfsburg - tick tock 😂

Able to judge the situation at a football club after only one half of football and communicate this non-verbally through a 1000 yard stare. Able to feign benign interest even if seated next to the boorish village idiot on a Waltzer. Such attributes make him invaluable at Saints.

Not at the price we'd sell him for, given the £20M will apparently paid for him. The neo-Maldini barnet might add another £35.

No good bigging him up for a transfer to a top European side.

Manzils in Bevois Valley to take over the catering. Open to 4am on matchdays.

Doubt it, they haven't got many contacts in the Square Mile or Wall Street, and you don't get the same level of insider trading at Home Bargains or the STD Clinic.

Unfortunately, fuck all!

Reckon so. To be honest, seeing the capitulation in the flesh on Saturday might have been enough - all that money on a bunch of overpaid melts!

I work in CoL and not a squeak last few months. If Solak has had enough, he's had enough very recently. I reckon this is about flashing the knickers for investment or a fishing expedition to see how club is perceived in the wider market.

It’s very Saintsy that the one owner we have in recent history prepared to spend money has employed a string of absolute no-marks to tell him how and where to spend it. No ill-feeling towards Solak, the money man. Genuinely think if the incoming Sport Republic sans Anderson had given Hassenhutl six months to retrieve his mojo in that WC break and a say in those two windows (and perhaps his replacement) club would be in a very different place. But hindsight is a fine thing in football.
