Give it to Ron

Yep there was a lot of discussion in playing one in front of the other . We have Bree, Payne and now new Chelsea lad so plenty of cover at wing back for the 3 at back formation. As long as it’s 25m plus sell on fees then can see Tino going. i haven’t seen many links to KWP apart from Newcastle again but probably journo filling space

Bizarre…. Fcking hell don’t over react will you!

Why do you think that with the squad we have and club in a bit of a mess at moment no back room staff to start with playing a Prem side is sensible?

Well whoever thought playing Bournemouth in a friendly is clearly clueless what will that do for Martins acceptance here? He needs wins early playing a Prem team won’t help that. I don’t obviously know what’s happening with Swansea compensation but it’s not going to help us if we want to recruit from there over what 500k ?

We have signed someone as of 1st July Tino’s replacement 😉

Southampton are understood to value Livramento at around £30 million, but Newcastle want to agree a price around half the amount — one proposal has included cash plus Ryan Fraser #saintsfc @JPercyTelegraph

I would rather we have an experienced DM rather than shoe horn him into a position he isn’t suited too just like Jack Stephens.

5m at best I think and won’t be many willing to pay that up front. That deal from Vasco is a joke who would fall for that he would play 59% and “injured”.

Can’t argue with your SR comments because that’s how I feel too. Nothing learnt and we are putting all our eggs in the basket of Wilcox who has only looked after academy level that’s my concern as well but we will see. Next month with squad will tell. I like the recruitment of Darren Mowbray good record

Champ’ away allocations 23/24 Bham 2250 Bburn 7500 Bristol C 3000 CCFC 2200 Hudd 2300 Hull 2000 Ipsw 2100 Leeds 2500 Leic 3000 Boro 2000 Mill 3000 Nwich 2000 Plym 1500 PNE 5800 QPR 3000 Rham 2300 Sheff W 3500 Southmpton 3000 Stoke 2600 Sun 2500 Swansea 2000 Watford 2000 WBA 2000

So by your logic we have a manager that gets promoted but has failed before once we get there? So do we sack him then? At least with Martin he has a clean slate hopefully this will work. It’s all down to how we recruit isn’t it who stays and who goes that’s my biggest concern shifting the shite we have for fees loans out are useless for us.

Nope just I don’t think he would be a fit here at all . At least it’s not Smith who I don’t rate at all. Some managers just click look at Howe I never saw that working after Burnley. Farke just doesn’t inspire me a bit like Martin but it’s done now so will just get on with it but then again nor did Strachan look how great that was.

Think Bullshitter is more appropriate

There is no way anyone will pay £52m but think a few would be interested about £30m plus add ons

Where? Not prone to exaggeration much are you!

So why did Norwich sack him?

Leicester and Leeds fans I know saying exactly same about their choices too. All agree Lampard/Gerrard are to be avoided . Leeds looking at Farke who I am unconvinced by.

I just want to see more than 2 wins at home for a start

Not compared to last year there is no top 4 Prem rich Arab owned clubs we can’t compete with. We just need a decent manager, tactics, board, owners and squad …simple

So have we 😉

Last time I did Wednesday away the keeper got a header equaliser in injury time

Fireman Sam put out a tweet yesterday which was later rubbished. Russell Martin's move to #SaintsFC is being held up due to boardroom doubts. Amongst others, Rasmus Ankersen believes a more proven option, such as former #afcb and #ffc boss Scott Parker, could be required to "bounce back" at the first attempt. Move in doubt. Should only listen to well known ITK sources Pugh, Pugh, Barney Mcgrew , Cuthbert , Dibble and Grubb.

I get that totally and feel same but I am trying to be optimistic that no-one could repeat last seasons clusterfuck……I didn’t really say that did I? What really worries me is we need a fast start and clubs won’t be jumping to sign our lot Lavia a side. I can see a lot of loans that don’t help at all as we need the money to replace the terrible squad we have even though relegated . Plus vast drop in what we expect to get.

Well they can’t can they as not officially employed yet but does anyone really believe they are not preparing?

Random tweet Not claiming to be in the know or anything like that, but have been told by someone there, Russell Martin is at Staplewood this eve, hopefully doing his Media bits for tomorrow. #saintsfc
