Saint Charlie

This. A million times. Reed should do the speaking on football matters.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/southampton/10834910/Southampton-board-meets-over-Tottenham-Hotspurs-interest-in-manager-Mauricio-Pochettino.html If this is true then it seems like we are always slow to react. Surely they had a plan before Wednesday night.

Officially yes, but they may have been sly. Also possible we have already given permission. Once we know theres a couple of million into the coffers then the Board probably urged him to go! Helps with the "difficult" financial situation.

Spurs ITK reckons MP met Levy on Tuesday and announcement to be made soon. I'm sure Ralphy and Les remain comfortable with the situation.

Very naive.

Not seen this reported anywhere reputable.

Knowing Armstrong he most likely took the photo from someone else's Twitter!

Ultimately it was a huge cock up to only have one PL standard keeper and we all know it cost us points. Ditto the matches that Hooiveld played.

She has my support, but I'm less sure about the makeup of the new Board.

Of course not. But no doubt he wouldn't have openly invited offers like Krueger has. Since the new Board came in, some of the comments read like we are a league one club on the verge of administration. Maybe we are (on the verge of administration) but if not then why comment like they have. They seem like they want to sell the players, rather than have to.

Krueger on Sunday: "Fans should respect that we will be holding conversations with clubs from tomorrow (in response to Lallana rumours). Laughable comment to make publically, just like the Hofsetter one re "difficult financial situation".

If our ambition is not sufficient to keep our current Manager then some of the names listed on this thread are laughable.

Because its a PL requirement.

He will probably go, but this and the stuff like it is absolute tosh. When Van Gaal is announced this kid will be claiming he has inside info. Tbh I don't know why people take any notice of these kind of accounts. Shaw has been going to Man Utd for a few weeks now so its obviously not as much of a done deal as the "reports" suggest.

When people talk about the good posters that no longer post here...he certainly isn't one of them!

Its always been 3.

Apparantly they were filming the promo photos today. Gazzaniga, Targett, Steve Davis and Gallagher. Probably the only ones that will still be around although if we got a decent offer for Davis it would be interesting.

This thread isn't about the kit.

In the scheme of things the kit is so, so, so minor.

I'm happy with my agenda at the moment. Its not anti-Saints, but its questioning of the new regime and whether they are actually fit for purpose. Both Rogers and Krueger are in roles they have no experience of, which is reason to be wary. A PL football club isn't the place the learn.

Luckily the kit is secured, which a weight off my mind.

An interesting story how this guy is a CEO of a team who finished top half of the PL. Seems to have just ended up there, which is quite extraordinary really. Especially interesting given the comments made by Hans Hofsetter when the Accounts were released: Gareth Rogers was previously our Chief Financial Officer, and suggested previously that the Accounts were not a concern. If you are CFO of a Company, and then someone comes in and shows displeasure at the financial state that you presided over and its clarity, then surely that would be a kick in the teeth....

If we get rid of a few players and are in transition then Big Sam is probably the best bet. He has an unwarranted reputation for playing long ball football, but we know he would probably keep us up.

Good that the Club are communicating openly on the big issues this week.

Brighton sell more ST's than us I think.
