Apologies for a new thread but wanted to create a new poll with what looks like the final candidates and give Yakin is chance to shine. Hopefully we'll have made an appointment by the time this thread closes.

Typical Twitter

Very sad news. Genuinely funny guy. RIP.

What would be telling is where this news has come from. It is either our club, United, Luke himself or someone with a motive to destabilise the player / club.

But we were all told it was a done deal?

England Line Up Hart; Johnson, Cahill, Jagielka, Baines; Gerrard, Henderson; Welbeck, Rooney, Lallana; Sturridge.

Fry sold Surman and Leon Crouch helped out by subbing the Pinnacle bid. Unlike the shower of **** down the road we had assets.

Let us be honest, he got rid of us. Had he have stayed and bought well in the Summer we'd be challenging for top 6. That said I see him a ruthless individual who appears to have developed a bunker mentality with team (that's why him and Cortese got on). So in a way it was better to happen now than in a years time.

Anyone wishing to hedge their disappointment about a Steve Bruce appointment can currently get 25-1 on him being appointed. The article that mentions Bruce also states Koeman is the front runner. Add in the fact we'd have to get permission / pay compensation to Hull I think it's unlikely.

I know Dickens was born in Portsmouth, but that doesn't mean they have to replicate the child exploitation in Oliver Twist.

Poll added. Based on top 8 on oddschecker, a sentimental return and a wildcard.

This is the video. Depressing stuff from Woy to be honest. Life isn't fair and get on with it, what we knew though tbf. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10152102165231867&id=644991866

hasnt Tom Ince just turned down Inter?

So after that brief interlude, please back to topic of the new manager.

In answer to the questions. It was suggested that the 'Glasgow Saint' username bore an unchangeable stench. In consultation with the user it was suggested that a break was in order followed by rejoining the board with a new identity. Discuss his posts, play the ball not the man please. If he does revert to type then he will go the way that Glasgow was going to. So pretty please, with sugar on top, stay on topic.

Glad he took my advice to him to take Ribbery and Grenier to a brothel in the week prior to the squad being confirmed.

So pleased for him. Allez les Bleurs

Anyway, this was retweeted by the very good Matt Slater @iammoallim: Southampton, according to oft-reliable De Telegraaf, wants Ronald Koeman presented as their new mgr next week. (An excellent appointment). old news I know but suggests this is still on track.

So the transfer is done, all bar agreeing the transfer fee

This started with some interesting ITK stuff and has become a Gaston Ramirez thread. There is one running discussing transfer rumours if you want to continue.

Seem to remember the hystrerical reaction on here when people thought Tony Adams was a done deal, we then got Pardew.

I was always told never to argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with sheer experience.

No problems with him signing a shirt. If what he said is true it's a ****ing disgrace.

Maybe this will help improve the customer experience. But you don't care about that, absolutely not, not me la la la.
