Saint Garrett

I've not renewed. Had some other things to pay for so it was tight anyway, and the club selling Rickie, I decided to leave it. No doubt I'll go to all the games just buying a ticket on the day.

Who actually has any proof that he said that apart from hearsay!? Don't get me wrong, I'm sure that Adam wants to further his career, but no point having a go at the lad for wanting to leave a club that he has pretty much achieved all he can.

There's plenty of players at Man Utd or Liverpool who could improve our squad.

Pfft - only just got my "Lallana 20" England shirt through the post!!

Does this mean the points system will work now?

Welcome to the premier league attitude...!

Legend. What a signing - arguably the best value signing we've ever made. And what a top guy he is too. Im going to miss him.

It will cost £30m to replace Sir Rickie.

Heard from my Liverpool mate that we're in for him...I would happily take him as a JRod replacement until he's back from injury. Still need another striker though unless Osvaldo is going to sort himself out.

Rickie has gone.

Yup

Done then. Guan is ITK. Devastated

4m and 5m if they win the league in next 3 years? It's nothing as that's not going to happen.

Worthy of captaincy IMO.

Isn't "MR X" one of Glasgow's logins?

Bergkamp? Always loved him as a player.

This - they're huge players for us - add in JRod as well along with Lallana to Liverpool and Shaw to Utd and we're in deep trouble.

Martin hunter now in charge of 18s, 21s and first team ?

He'll surely go to QPR - got that written all over him. Along with Lampard and Ashley Cole.

Who is working where now and what are they doing? Please correct me where I'm wrong with my assumptions Katrina - Is she just the owner? Does she have any real input in whats going on apart from signing them off? Kruger - He's supposed to be in charge of raising the commercial side and communicating with the fans? Hoffsetter - is he a proper employee? Finance bloke? Only time i've heard him mentioned is when he said the finances were in a mess - which they weren't particularly. Rogers - The old CFO who is now the CEO? What does a CEO do? Would think this was a similar role to Chairman and Owner? Reed - solely in charge of the footballing side of the club. Contracts, academy, players welbeing etc. Then you have the management staff - Poch, Perez, a few other bods Hunter - u21 manager? Is he doing this on his own now? Does he also deal with the 18s and 16s? Seems to me that we have a few people at the top who don't seem to have a lot of experience in the game and at the moment are really struggling - don't know how to run a football club. I know Cortese was the same, he didn't have any football experience, but he was excellent at the job he did and it seems to me that he was doing all the jobs in Bold without anyone else really. Kruger seems to talk a good game, but he seems to say an awful lot of nothing. Nice bloke maybe, but that doesnt get you results in this business. They need to act and act quickly because they're being made to look incredibly amateurish at the moment. That interview after the Man Utd game was just embarrassing.

I'd take Rafa Benitez...

It's a f*cking shambles

It's a complete mess, these people don't seem to have a clue what they're doing.

Absolute shambles this. Poch will go, a couple of players will follow, we won't be able to bring in the quality which we require, we're going backwards again. The calibre of player we need to push on would have no interest in coming here now the manager and a few players will go due to a lack of ambition. It's such a shame, and I hope those that were delighted when Cortese went know what a huge thing that was. We were always going to be worse off when he left. Add to this, we don't have a kit or even a manufacturer, this summer has already turned into a very horrible one for Saints. The board might do charity bike rides and talk about the community, but it means sweet FA when they can't have any ambition with the team on the pitch, very disappointing

Gomes (Spurs keeper) has signed for Watford. Decent signing for them.
