Think I'd be happy with this. No nothing about the new Ralph guy, but I'm all for it 'cause it's a bit hipster.

Oops.

Wonder if we can sell him in January?

Who is taking responsibility for earlobe watch? Surely they'll be a semi-disguised DoF/new manager in attendance.

Fire in the back of a Boots 18 wheeler. Immediately before the Badgers Farm junction. Being cleared up when I crawled past 1/2 hour ago. Also big queues down towards the M27..... so possibly another problem there too?

Standard. Except it can't be true can it? Big Kat assured us the 'partnership' with Gao was to provide investment to take us to the next level.

Is he better than what we've got?

This is taking a while then. Maybe we're going to go after one of those who don't get the FA role?

Hadn't noticed!!

Is this happening currently?

VAR time.....

Sounded like good play from Redmond.

Oops. Obi misses a sitter.

Suggestion of possible concussion.

Ohhh. Obi creates himself a chance. Got the commentators excited.

Who is the co-commentator on 5xtra? God, damn, he makes Puel sound interesting!

Can't see him going before we appoint a new DoF.... on balance it doesn't make sense. However time is running out for us in relation to the passing of games and the nearing of the January window (although I doubt we'll spend anything). Some big decisions to be made by Ralph, Gao etc. Are they up to it?

Will we see Maya back in the frame now that Les has gone?

Wonder if they've been consulting with Koeman around this... he was at the City game... couple of days later this happens. If you were Gao and knew nothing about football, who might you ask? Perhaps our most successful recent manager? Curious how we'll structure things now... the Echo piece was telling on the change in structure when Cortese left. Wenger might be a good shout....and we become a mini-Arsenal. Is he too old now though? Interesting few weeks coming up I think.

Wow...shocked. Didn't expect this. Pleased and relieved also... long, long overdue. We desparately need a new approach and some fresh ideas. That said, Les did loads of good for Saints. Worth remembering the heights that we reached, and are now so frustrated at being nowhere near, were delivered by his work...so I think we owe him some gratitude. It's a bit like the Wenger situation really. Onwards and upwards, with a sigh of relief.

Genius. :adore:

Wonder if Gao might bring him in as a consultant to advise on football matters? That could be a good rumour to start.....

Yep, heard that. Guess he was just watching Dutch players.

How depressing is it that we're suggesting BFS as our next manager? Were the Adkins, MoPe and Koeman years just a dream? Thing is though, BFS would improve us, and probably would keep us up.... and we'd see some commitment and fight from our lacklustre players.
