Some people IMO think to "love" Cortese is cool as he is the new generation "I take no **** from anyone" "I can do what I like" "respect me or fail"...as pointed out if this was Lowe I am sure these people would have a different stance?
Personally I think Cortese like most people have + and - parts to their make-up. At the moment all I would ask of him is where are Southampton FC in his planned 5 year plan? Are we on track, slightly behind or smack on? Answer that and I would be happy.
Regarding the 125 celebration surely both sides could have come to some sensible agreement, as this only makes Southampton FC a bad news item!
