Give it to Ron

If he was there last night and left this morning via the back exit perhaps he had an away match?

One that it won't be is Hoddle...when asked on Talksport whether he was interested in the Villa job he said "no - the timings not right as I am too busy with my academy". One gutted Norwich deluded forum nitwit will probably now be in tears after this!

Oh god no....he is an awful manager, I would much rather Phil Brown than him and I think he would be a massive mistake.

Well not being funny but how the devil would they know that....information out of SMS is harder than getting a POW out of Colditz. No-one knows anything and thats how it should be....just wish they would announce it and let the whingeing begin.

Nomad????

Dimi has been fined £1k by Hampshire

Can you name me one manager in football that has been "perfect"? Even Fergie got the colour of the shirts wrong one day. AP win percentage was the best of any Saints manager and as you have stated on many occasions its only winning that counts. We have to balance that of course with the division we are playing in and money spent but for me AP was doing a decent job. We will never know what went on behind the scenes.

Taxi for Wilkins. How can you leave on 2 bumbling defensive midfielders and substitute the only player with pace and the only threat we had! Hammond and Morgan contributed nothing. Puncheon was abysmal. Lambert looks ****ed off with the pathetic supply and Connoly was shocking. Lets substitute Chamberlain he is playing too well....clueless! We are pedestrian going forward and so easy to get 8 or 9 defenders back. Why didnt he take off Hammond or Morgan and push on Dickson wide left ...Puncheon in the centre and Guly up front....or even put Jaidi on for the last 10 up front!

Why would we want a guy like Adkins that has won promotion twice and is actually managing in a league above ours?

Sounds like they have gotten that from here posted earlier by another poster: http://twitter.com/footballagent46

A position I have totally empathy for and have been there all week but am now relenting a bit. That may be due to all the propaganda coming out of the club but we will never know the truth behind Pardew going. Some rumours maybe true some not ..last night I was told by a good source that Downes never spoke to Wilkins for the whole time he was here... Who knows what Pardew would of done for the rest of the season but pre-season didn't go too well, players were not added to the squad that needed to be i.e pace, width and Lambert cover. Maybe a new face will come in and finish the job Pardew started lets all hope so....as long as we don't go for the cheap Wilkins option.

Statistically is it any better if the 3rd time is another team ;-) ????????

Not well but getting some good 1-0 wins, we were well organsided. A lot were upset thats true because he did an Ok job and I didn't want him to go at that time. I didn't protest last time but also didn't want him back as we had better options...problem was Lowe did his usual and went for the cheap option. I don't think he is right now either as again for me better option in Mowbray, Adkins, Curbishley.

Sorry why? based on a short period of time here where he acted like a prize **** when he left? No problem with him moving on to his spiritual home but the way he conducted himself does. He was such a success at Spurs and also did so well at Wolves. In fact he has such a great managerial record as well doesn't he ....all those trophies........d'oh! As a player manager Chelsea * FA Cup runner-up: 1994 [edit] As a manager Tottenham Hotspur * Worthington Cup runner-up: 2001–02

So we employ someone who hasnt been involved as a manager since before 2005??

I must admit SaintChristine post now has me even more worried we will appoint Wilkins!!!! Coupled with Hammonds interview I just hope this is all bull.

Dean Wilkins....for the love of god lets hope we have a chairman that doesn't make the same mistake the last few idiots did!! Gray Wigley then we do the same under the next lot Dodd/Gorman then onto Wotte after JP!

No that makes sense - Cork has been brilliant for the youngsters this season its just I want us to continue playing the youngsters like Woods and Briggs .

Did I read somewhere we were signing Arnie Sidebottom next season???? Will that not hinder Woods progress?

Plus he is a fellow ugly git so knows he won't be able to knob any players wife!!!

I understand fully why some people feel the way you do and for that reason, personally I don't want him back because I think he is a crap man manager and not what we need and his time at Spurs and Wolves proved that.

well....which was exactly what? He won what? Can you show me his achievements as a manager since he left us and before that holds certain members on here to bleat on and on for 6 years? Here are his stats: As a player manager Chelsea * FA Cup runner-up: 1994 [edit] As a manager Tottenham Hotspur * Worthington Cup runner-up: 2001–02 So nothing apart from keeping us up.....so did many other managers that dont have nutjobs harping on at every opportunity.

Why? Have you compared the two? I am not saying I would be happy with Brown but he did really well at Hull until he hit the self destruct button. Hart on the other hand has done nothing anywhere to appoint him as anything other than BBC man.

I think the decision to stick with the likes of Vince ahead of Peiterson has been the best one made this season at Hampshire.

Have you heard about KP rant on twitter??? Dont think he will get picked for Pakistan T20 and apparently has signed for Surrey.
