I did have a similar chuckle to myself about that prospect. "South Coast team in third tier appoints Premier League manager touted over the years as the next Man Utd or England manager". I wonder if they'd buy a picture?

If it's not true it doesn't mean Cortese is repsonsible for it or that there isn't another explanation. That's pretty simple thinking TBF.

There most certainly will be. You don't sack someone on hundreds of thousand a year without a compromise agreement and you don't have a compromise agreement without a confidentiality provision.

Buy a scruffy tracksuit and practice jumping around like a little gheyer in homage.

Ok - sorry. No offence intended. I actually posted it as it reminded me of what a nice chap Markus was, although I did "um and ahh" a bit about posting it.

Not true. £10k is a very good Championship wage.

Not: "Nice watch, is it a Casio?"

You sure? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/hampshire/4379368.stm

Yesterday Solent said they had been considering possible dates but when Markus died it got put on the back burner. So there is no date currently set (unless it has been set since last night).

I'm not saying you're wrong but it doesn't really, does it. Par example: I read some ******** on here. I tell my mate, call him D'arcy. D'arcy tells his mate, Rupert. Rupert tells two people, Tarquin and Jules. Jules also knows D'arcy and both of them know Freddie. D'arcy and Jules both tell Freddie. I have also told Wills, who being a mate of a lot of us, tells Johnno who mentions it to Freddie at Eddie's ****tail and incest party. So Freddie has now heard it from three different sources and they were all toss.

Least believable rumour yet (even behind the one I invented) and that's saying something.

yet no one here (including me) would have a clue who he is!

No idea but a £13m wage budget will kill you. That will be karma. Oh, and **** off you despicable ****.

I heard Pards wears a toupe and Cortese feels this is fundamentally dishonest. Being a man of principle he was left with little choice.

Now that, I can believe!

I don't think anyone's said that - they just get annoyed at the selfish, short-sighted, ungrateful little ****s that abound round here.

I hope it didn't come across that I was doing that. By all means, be interested in rumours, be sceptical, don't believe everything you are told. But that virtue of independent thought also demands that you don't swallow everything that is an alternative view to what "the Man" is telling you.

That was in recognition of HMRC sorting out the skates. Obviously, it's a tad redundant now (although they're still fooked!). Might get a new one later if I can be arsed. And no, not a wind-up. A tad polemical, sure, but then if you're going to start a new thread you should write something interesting. The underlying message is authentic and quite a few posters seem to have agreed with me.

And why did it need a meeting with NC to tell the player the reason if there was a training ground bust up? "Hey lads, remember on, er... Sunday - yes it must've been Sunday - remember that training ground bust up? Do you? Yeah? Well, that's what the sacking's about. Oh, and by the way, I will not be rushed. Cheerio."

I reckon three.

I've done a Rule 1, for those of you who like this sort of thing (it's not pron!):

Similar looking!

Oh right, cheers. So that will be a three-matcher. That's annoying.

Whatever happened to that chap with the specs who hung around the training ground under Lowe? Can't remember his name. Looked a bit sly.

Some media outlets (including Saints' official Twitter - which, by the way, has rubbished the Hart rumours again) are suggesting that Barnard was booked for the tackle and then booked again for his reaction to it. Solent thought the ref just ****ed up by getting his yellow out instead of his red. I would like to hear what other people thought. If anyone would like to recreate the incident using Subboteo/cartoons/chocolate coated raisins or nuts, and post the photos on here to help explain then I would be overcome with emotion. Thanks.
