Mr X

if true as looks likely it will be a big loss SRL adds so much to the team and was one of a kind in terms of playmaking

It says a lot about the board that after possibly the most successful season ever they don't want to build on it merely cash in, i seriously think they are doing a mass asset strip but why? start again with a fresh slate?

You seriously think he will? he thinks hes far to big a star to play for little Southampton

why are you obsessed to the point of OCD with hoddle? hes a has been and wasnt that great the last time!

100% true, one or two top players might be understandable depending on the replacements lined up but seems like we are inviting bids at the moment, sfc players £3 a bunch come and get em! come an get em!

you put you left leg in ya left leg out.......... thats what wreck it ralph's all about

free transfer right?

That is true! but where is he exactly? undoubtedly a top ice hockey coach, but in terms of football? I agree he should be given a chance but you have to say in terms of interviews he is all waffle, what do you think he will bring to the club?

correction he coached in germany

Good shout looks promising!

Everyones definition of high profile is different that herein lies the problem

might have been a repeat of an earlier interview! apologies

he is just been on SSN

ralph on sky now talking lots of pseudo waffle with an smirk

hmmm maybe saints inability to keep either manager or long term owners, my guess is there will shortly be another new owner, but yes you are right cant pinpoint the blame on any overall problem allthough Lowe was reknown for being a little trigger happy

Is blackmore known for grilling people or giving them an easy time?

so 8 in the last ten years

no chance!, would she need an interpreter like MP?

Lets wait ans see how many players are sold, and who mp's replacement is, its not going to be a big name as when have we ever had a big name....... other than hoddle & redcrap if they can be considered such?

Is that a joke or a contradiction? Hoddle would be going backwards hes had his time

The board must take their fair share of criticism for the way this had been handled radio Solent last night were debating it and agreed the board have done an extremely poor job in the handling of MP's future the fans knew he was off (apart from a few who claimed to be itk that mp was 100% staying!) yet it was dragged out and fans were fed lied by les reed who now we have to put are faith in. I honestly don't believe either kathrina or Ralph have a clue about running a football club and why in the world would they? Hope they prove me wrong but I think this could quickly turn into saints being a laughing stock yet again! They don't seem to be interested in keeping the team together

Most generic & un-personal statement ever much like his interaction with fans while here

Never thought id say it but bring back cortese for all his faults we wouldn't be in this mess, the board are directionless, les reed has known for months MP was off and fed the fans a load of lies
