Our friend has an in depth insight of passenger manifests for flights and was spot on regarding Mane missing a flight! I would assume, for him to stay ITK, he won't be able to tell us!

It was either KBilly or Guan who said five were likely to go. Pelle, Mane, Wanyama, Juanmi and Tadic. 4 out 5 gone. My money would be on Tadic next, hope not though.

Definately not a good policy. But I think the club have started to get wiser with getting the players to pen longer deals. The issues we faced on Wanyama and to an extent Mane were around the length of their deal. Worth pointing out Pelle (1 Year) and Tadic (2 Years) left are in a similar, if less valuable boat. We've also learnt to get our outs done quickly so we can concentrate on the new season with a new manager. We lost 3 last year in Clyne, Morgan and Toby (counting him), if we limit it to that this year we are in great shape to improve again.

To be fair, a big reason players like Mane join us is as a stepping stone. It will help us attract the next round of signings.

Gutting. The lad is top quality.

To be fair I did know that, yes. I shall now go and infract myself for such a sarcastic comment.

I will save this for when he pops in an OG

I thought the black box had all these top fellas stacked up ready to take over? Anyway as I can't change the poll, new thread time!

To be fair the club twitter feed re-tweeted it.

I'd suggest Big Vic has a better PR team and / or is a better person than Koeman and Lallana.

[h=1]TO SOUTHAMPTON FANS[/h]Dear All, I write to you with a heavy heart to announce that I will be leaving Southampton Football Club. As you can imagine it is very emotional for me to say goodbye to the club that gave me the chance to be the first Kenyan to play in Premier League. Firstly, I would like to thank the most important part of every club, the fans. I want to reassure you that any “quotes” you have read about in the media before my move was announced are false. I would never disrespect you by talking to the media before I have talked to you guys.It took a while for me to win you all over but I can truly say that with your support and affection I have grown as a player and a person. You guys have always been there to lift us up when we were down, and to celebrate with us when we were playing well. I feel really proud that I got the opportunity to wear the Southampton shirt. Secondly, football is a team sport and it wouldn’t be right not to thank my amazing teammates. Jose, thanks for leading the team and always being there to pick us up when we needed encouragement. Thanks to the rest of the team for always giving 100% effort, I will miss all of you. I also want to thank every member of the Southampton staff: those who work behind the scenes and never get credit for their contribution to our success on the pitch. We are nothing without you. I will never forget my time in Southampton Football Club, I will keep club forever in my heart. Yours in Sport, Victor Wanyama

I suspect he is spot on.....

The only thing more expensive than employing a Frenchman is sacking a Frenchman.

A rolex GMT Master BLNR or new Ceramic Daytona is where it's at!

Roy Keane?

Received this through the forum: "I give you a sure information, the next coach of the saints at this time coaching a national team at the European Championships in France and is expected to be eliminated to announce his arrival at St. Mary's."

What odds is Roy Hodgson?

Needs a better tailor.

If Koeman hadn't ****ed around in the middle of the season we could have finished 4th

Need to start a new thread for a new poll. So based on Jeremy Wilson, who would you want?

Chris Nicholl, not sure why he is strangling me!

Wilson has very good links at the club. It's one of those 3 IMHO

Bye Ronald, thanks for a decent two years, #WeMarchOn [unsticks thread]
