Solak is aware he’s screwed up ( a lot of what I’ve been saying is "confirmed” in the article about in The Athletic April 10th) SR and Saints are an important part of his large comms empire. He’s even admitted that in interviews a while ago. He made the club his responsibility, a buck stops here mentality, previously as any boss of a big corp he’s delegated. No that doesn’t mean he makes specific football decisions. Spors appointed ages ago but initial contract signed straight after deadline day. Spors long been aware of his task he will have been planning for ages again he admitted he’d been keeping an eye on us. Hes under shit loads of pressure , auto promotion and have the basis of a team to compete in PL . It’s no worse than Wilcox naffing off the at beginning of season. We spent big this season with little obvious returns. We will spend big again but this time with a large amount of time to prepare. We have great fans I mean the ones that travel a good solid base. why not be positive? The alternative of some takeover really disrupting things is unthinkable . Dont ask me to verify it’s all out there if you can be bothered.

Enough with the childish scapegoating. It’s far more complicated than that.

Plenty of time for the club to sort things out but a long time on here .

What I’ve been saying but without the post being unreadable 😇🙏🏻

I wasn’t saying he should get the job. I just find him an interesting manager and didn’t even know he was in contention. It’s going to be fucking difficult job. It’s stabilising us getting us out of the Championship and I’ve heard Solak wasn’t happy with the fact we didn’t make the Autos so yep not really the time for a left field manager but Spors is also looking long term. Getting a safety manager to get as promoted and the ditching him doesn’t fit either. This season was not our worst season but it fucking felt like it. I’ve been damaged by it that’s how much I give a shit. The Sports Republic out campaign was dumb . They have to stay but they have to sort it Spors was a great move but a serious decision has to be made. No fuck ups we’ve still got money. Why shouldn’t we get autos ? We don’t know what our squad will be like or who our manager is. I reckon Spors has. No idea who our next manager and I wouldn’t try to suggest someone. The fans won’t be happy whoever joins. Just one thought though no Sean Dyche that would be madness . Big Ange don’t know Rohl don’t Know Philippe Clement, Stanimir Stoilov ?

Less polished could be. There’s some goods videos of him on YouTube he seems like a guy bursting with ideas. This has been posted before but if you missed it worth the watch For once the headlines right it is unreal . i like the idea of him being our manager. He’d kick some arse and is intelligent , sharp. But the downside whover takes over is on a hiding to nothing. Must acheive Autos and rebuild team prepared the handle the first season back in the PL

Like Spors the new manager will be well aware of what he is up against but will also be aware that part of his job is to stabilise us in the PL step back and look at it . I reckon that would be a great opportunity . It’s sco,plete nonsense we are a basket case, laughing stock whatever . Weve been in far worse situations than this. yes a crappy season . I’m fairly other clubs have had crappy seasons in the PL . The fans showed what a potential we have. Good season in the championship Autos will be expected as will early prep for stability in the PL. We might fuck up lnut why should we ?

I’ve just been reading your last couple of months update. I regret not paying them as much attention. Sure it’s tough for you but I’ve enjoyed them and FWIW I’m gong to read them all the time. i enjoy the detail, the passion and you are pragmatic . If you don’t mind I may message you in the next couple of days. I’m not going to talk about Saints I’d just like to get a bit of detail about your club .

Recently all I’ve said is this season has been dreadful , obvious enough and SR admitted they’ve fucked up again obvious but they’ve now put themselves in a position where there cannot be any more excuses ( Wilcox leaving and putting Rasmus in charge for example ) but they’ve already made some very positive decisions and I reckon we will be in a good place start of next season.Thats it . There’s loads on here that make dopey comments but I’m not sad enough to follow everyone’s comments.who do I notice and pay attention to Fitzhugh Fella, Whitey Grandad, ( not because I always agree with them but they back what they say) Fabrice ( eccentric proper fan), Matthew le god, Convict Colony ummm that’s it.

Love AI once you get the hang of it.

He’s not an elephant in the room he’s still highly regarded but he’s had his wings clipped but I bet he was involved in Spors appointment so well done Rasmus

Such a thoughtless tired comment .

Yes exactly

Agreed but the plan isn’t just about us getting autos it’s preparing a team that’s going to stay in the PL as well Spors didn’t just join us to get us promoted again he’s got bigger ambitions than that. Newcastle had him on a hit list possibly he might naff off and leave us in the lurch like Wilcox did but I even will have talked to Spors about that. I have not any idea about a manager I bet Spors wil be involved in that choice. I keep saying Spors is well aware of our fuck ups I reckon whoever the manager is will be well thought out Spors rep depends on it and frankly SRs rep as a sport media giant is fucked and despite all the weeping and wailing on here it’s not fucked yet.

Wrexham is a team to watch out. I had a sort of respect for them as an outsider club but that’s all gone out the window sure there’s been plenty of vaguely celeb managers from Elton John to *Sir Jimmy* Ratcliffe but I loathe the disneyfication of Wrexham. I only posted Henrik Rydstrom up because of previous links with him and and a piece of unverified gossip I heard late last night and when you read about him he’s about letting players have freedom on pitch ( within reason ) the more I read about the more I like the sound of him. Sure some on hear have little respect for my opinions but the trusting players to make decisions ( crazy stuf like taking a shot at goal ) sounds a great idea.

All is good the plan is coming to fruition

Nice post with a great sense of perspective I really get what you are saying. and Use thie season as prep and let’s have em next season UTS.

All Dragan has said is he takes full responsibility now. That doesn’t mean he picks the team he’s just going to being a close eye on his money. It’s obvious from what he has already said there were too many people trying to influence things and from what Fitzhugh has suggested Rasmus unfairly copped all the flak but he was an easy target a bit of a flash git with his Ted Talks but that doesn’t mean he’s crapnd at his job he and as I’ve already said have had thier reps damaged and that makes them the best people to sort. I cannot make any sense out of the idea of trying to bid rid of SR we have the rest of this season and the summer to prepare no excuses now and again I’m going to suggest Ivan is changing team set ups on purpose just trying things out sure he wants to win but is that his priority ? Not brilliant news if you have a season ticket but I can’t understand why anyone thought we would do well this season. But honest we were likely to get relegated from the first match if we get it right this time there’s no reason why we can’t have a really good championship season and have plenty of time to be ready for a proper go at the PL we are set up much better already what do we pay these people for I’m convinced Dragan is thinking the same thing.

Because Sports Republic is a relatively small part of United Group .

I don’t believe hes some warlord but he’s a powerful man in South Eastern Europe and laugh if you like ( in your ignorance ) that’s a big deal . read some fucking books.

Rasmuss should be grateful could have been worse found in some Eastern European forest 🤔

I’m not saying I’m right it just seems to make sense and I don’t just remember the Branfoot days it doesn’t seem so long ago we couldn’t pay anyone’s wages aren’t anywhere that. Trouble is with all the social media twittering away it seems like it.

Completely agree but Spors will be completely aware of what’s happened so far can’t imagine him joining without some lines drawn, it’s like a lot of politics posturing if as I reckon Rasmuss has been told to fuck off and worry about Goztepe that’s going to be embarrassing for him and of course Solak still sees them as an important team Turkey is becoming a big mover in world politics and economics. So Rasmus being in the photos is important.
