He is suspended

Wouldn't it have been easier to use a photo of him from 2019?

Martin had better players at his disposal. Makes things easier for him.

It was a question, not a 'take'.

What makes you think he is making decisions at Saints currently? He is chairman of Goztepe.

That isn't true. He was at Swansea for one season and they came 10th. He then joined Brighton who were already in the Premier League.

It is harder think of reasons why he wouldn't. As Saints even if relegated can offer a... Better squad Significantly bigger budget for transfers and wages Bigger wage for himself We'd be funded by parachute payments and player sales after relegation that blow Sheff Weds out of the water. They can't compete with us financially.

I think being offered a job at one of the biggest clubs in world football would be the main factor.

Because Bayern Munich offered him a job.

No, in the New Forest. Yes, I know Southampton traffic is a mess.

We do have a DoF, Mark Bitcon.

The point was about their intention. Not whether they fail.

Looks like we will be a Championship club, but their intention by spending that large amount of money isn't to be a Championship club. That is what makes it true.

The post is still true

It would be a struggle to find any club media output that asks the owner difficult questions. Not just Saints.

Which is why raising revenue makes sense as it will help fund it.

There are not unconnected. Income raised can help improve quality on the pitch. Every little helps.

For those questioning the need for expansion please give an answer to this. As we sellout every PL game when it is this bad to watch what is on the pitch from a newly promoted team, how many tickets do you think we would sell on average in a bigger St Mary’s if we were mid table in the PL like we have been in the past? The answer should just be a number.

The City Council acknowledge that in the statement... "Enhanced Transport and Infrastructure plans to improve connectivity, making it easier for residents and visitors to access the waterfront area."

Very good point
