Dark Munster

Not really necessary. That's only needed for racehorses, not lumbering donkeys.

Attending a match isn't meddling! On top of that, the chancer arrogantly justified keeping Jones on at the time because he saw "reference points" that the rest of us didn't. How many "reference points" was he missing by not attending the bloody matches?

Apparently Rasmus W. Ankersen hasn't been at any matches since Chelsea away. As they say, when the going gets tough, the fraudsters responsible are nowhere to be seen.

The brunt of the booing should've been directed at Rasmus W. Ankersen. But apparently that fraud hasn't attended a match since Chelsea away.

Cortese did a phenomenal job in bringing in Markus and his billions. He did a good job spending his money. He wasn’t a genius in that regard, but Rasmus W. Ankersen is an example of someone who doesn’t know how to spend other’s money. He left at the right time after Markus passed away. He also wasn’t the most pleasant of personalities as we all know.

There was no way Poch was going to stay. He saw us as brief stepping stone, and as soon as Spurs lifted up her skirt and showed him some leg he was off as fast as a pitbull over a pork chop dropped on the floor.

A miniature bottle Prosecco is very thoughtful, but I hope you bought something extra special for Rasmus.

That's what I'm worried about.

Fulham too. Plus I doubt anyone expected Arsenal to be giving City and Haaland a good run for their money.

I think you'll need to offer more than that to have someone take it off your hands.

Yes, and it’s true now too. A proper manager is essential. Along with strikers who can score. Now we’re in the Championship the likes of Adams, Charly, Mara, and yes even tall Paul and AArmstrong, could be a decent strike force.

After the Wolves capitulation and the virulent poisonous atmosphere Jones position was completely untenable. The fans rightly wouldn’t have taken one more day of the shit being served up, and I think the players felt the same. The simple fact is that Ramus W. Ankersen and co. couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery.

And Nathan F*king Jones. I see a pattern here.

Well I for one am not giving up hope. We're not mathematically down yet. Win the next four and we can still pull this out of the fire.

I think you answered your own question.

Especially if Rasmus W. Ankersen has any input.

I assume Potter would have to give up his remaining Chelsea contract for a lower salary if he joined us, and if so he'd be mad to do so. Maybe he could come to a deal with Chelsea where they just pay him the difference for the payoff period. That way he doesn't lose any money, and Chelsea pay him less than if he was spending his time gardening. If they had just paid him a lump sum compensation when they sacked him then of course the above is moot. I'm not sure how it works in general.

Me too. Yes he's been crap in the PL, but he's shown that he can do it at a level below. It would be mad to get rid of him without giving him a chance for half a season at least when we go down, and under a manager who isn't a clown. It's not like goal scorers, even at the Championship level, are ten a penny. I won't be happy if rumours that he's off to Ipswich are true, unless of course we bring in someone like Ings or Broja (which is highly unlikely).

Everyone but the Hants hierarchy it seems. As I said before, it's like Saints not getting a striker who can score goals. Is it something about being in Hampshire that makes clubs blind to the bleeding obvious?

There was a cut-off date: go into administration before that date, and the 10 point penalty would only apply to the current season, regardless of relegation or not. After that date, the penalty carried over to the next season if you're relegated without it (which happened to us of course). The ruddy-cheeked bastard chose to go into administration a few days after the cut off date, a parting "gift" to the club. His "attempt" to avoid it by claiming the parent company was in administration, and not the club, was a pathetic attempt to cover his vindictive tracks. He knew full well it was a bogus argument, and that the club would be stuffed in League 1. He could easily have taken us into administration a few days earlier to avoid the infamous L1 -10 points.

He's not Rasmus W. Ankersen so that's a massive step up.

He was tracking Nathan F*cking Jones for ages, so that diabolical decision certainly wasn't a panicked one. Just pure, unadulterated incompetence.

More like a constipated turd that won't come out. But point well made.
