Saints might think that it is a good day to bury bad news if the new manager is appointed today. Bit contrived everything being confirmed about Lambert at dead on 11am.
We would have a chance if say, Qatar decided to leave football after being outed as dirty bribers to get the World Cup, and Abramovich got a pull from Putin because Russia were outed as dirty bribers to get the World Cup.
Ok, but I'd be more concerned that Ralph would have gone back on what he said yesterday. No movement until we get a new manager.
If we appoint our new boss before any deal is concluded, then fair enough.
Directors of Football have worked wonders at many clubs. Off the top of my head, they have done wonders for Spurs, Portsmouth, Liverpool, Newcastle, Norwich.....
Bullsh*t position that doesn't work in my humble opinion.
