@TonyHusbandBBC: #saintsfc statement : "Pochettino will take charge of training on Saturday ahead of his first game as Southampton First Team Manager.."

Oops - wrong thread!

@officialsaints: Southampton Football Club has appointed Mauricio Pochettino as First Team Manager having relieved Nigel Adkins of his duties. #saintsfc

Common sense alert!

How would cutting off nose to spite face help? That's what Chelsea fans have done. We're cleverer than that.

"Nigel Adkins" now trending on Twitter

@solentsport: #Saintsfc v Chelsea in Premier League moved to Easter Sunday, 31st March at 4pm

I want Adkins to remain as manager but agree with the common sense in this post. I would hope that we are cleverer fans than Chelsea's.

BBC chap joining in now... @NabilHassan79: Freelance journalist @alex_crook is reporting manager Nigel Adkins could be replaced by Mauricio Pochettino as early as today. #saintsfc

Wouldn't that be unprofessional though..... oh....

Adam Blackmore ‏@bigadamsport #saintsfc are still holding their pre-match presser this afternoon despite snow chaos

Some Pompey news at last..... Their game at S****horpe has just been called off.....which means their unbeaten run now stretches into two weeks....

His Twitter profile says: com "National newspaper journalist, @talksportlive commentator and reporter for Soccer Saturday and Soccer Special TV shows."

What minute of the game would we clap in though? Most are taken by other clubs already....

Alex Goring Crook ‏@alex_crook I understand Nigel Adkins is to be replaced as #saintsfc manager by Mauricio Pochettino. Could be announced as early as today. Neil Allen ‏@pn_neil_allen Blimey, according to @alex_crook Nigel Adkins to be replaced as Southampton manager by Mauricio Pochettino. Isn’t football crazy.

My understanding is that they suddenly reduced the OD limit by a million quid or thereabouts (rather than removed the facility altogether), but it was enough to break the camel's back... Must be a slow news day in Pompeyland this morning

The analogy I would use is a gunman pointing a gun at my head drags me to the nearest cash machine. I'm the one pressing the buttons but he's the one giving me no choice...

Indeed. And when their parents cut out the cigarettes, booze, takeaways, etc, it'll more than compensate for the 1% cap in benefit increase...

"About 4"....Stephen Fry said so.... [video=youtube_share;25YMT5yTRuU]http://youtu.be/25YMT5yTRuU (fast forward to 23:10) p.s. sorry for the partial hijack of your thread
