I’ve just seen that. Should be on another thread but Chelsea in for JWP.

Who would pay even 50p to be bombarded with adverts “ doctors don’t want you to know about this amazing hack” or an interview with someone complaining their council has carpet has been damp for two years accompanied by the victim with exaggerated sad face pointing to a photo of a damp carpet.

I can’t remember the interview. I think it was with Martin. He was talking about Mowbray . It went along the the lines Darren won’t be seeing a lot of his family for the next 12 months. He will be travelling around Europe watching matches 7 days a week. 52 weeks a year.

I reckon Rasmus is alright but he did make a good scapegoat with his hipster image and obsession with statistics. He was hardly Sam Allardyce.

Very true but he was only here for three months. I know you’ve taken the piss but the latest Wilcox interview has supplied the last pieces of the jigsaw which was the fuck up of last season. FWIW it’s worth I’m seeing this as a clean slate. I hope SR have learnt from last season. This season going to be a rollercoaster but it’s got to be be more entertaining than the last couple of seasons.

On The Echo site.

He did but his job last year was ( as it is now ) supposed to be overseeing SR club rosta. From the latest interview from Wilcox it’s apparent quite a few were juggling jobs, not ideal. I’m guessing that’s what Dragan said recently that he didn’t focus enough on Saints and he intended to this season. Thats apparent already. He’s been more public and put up the money for Charles and Manning in case we lost them. The board has been rebooted and everyone now has very specific jobs. I know some enjoy calling me a SR fanboy but my job enables me to have a lot of free time. As I’ve said before I even watched Solaks interviews. Incidentally Solak is always in conflict with the pro-Russian government. He is pro-west which goes against centuries of alliance with the two countries.

SR appointed Joe Shields from Man City and he fucked off to Chelsea after 3 months. As I keep saying that’s one of the main reasons our season was a fuck up. Then Wilcox was approached in January but he was contracted to City until the end of the season. meanwhile Wilcox was unofficially starting to work for us. I’m assuming City would have been aware of that. Shields didn’t exactly shine at Chelsea last season but by their standards they were more of a clusterfuck than we were.

We have got new players lined up. Patiently waiting and ready to join us.

Yeah Shields walked out on us after 3 months at the beginning of last season.

In Martins first official interview he said in some games he will be open to change tactics. Doesn’t anyone pay attention to these interviews. Someone said it was bland. I thought he said a lot if you paid attention. Same with the Wilcox interview

TBF Russell Martin will be in control of Transfers. Jason Wilcox said in that official interview “ we won’t sign a player unless myself and Russell both agree”

All right iffy start. It would be enough to get the bedwetters going here.

Nonsense Burnley had a dreadful start last season.

Who’s to say we aren’t after another goal scorer ? If all of us see we lack a cutting edge. I suspect Martin, Mowbray and Wilcox do as well.

That’s just what I was thinking.

Apparently if you went on the Reading app you could watch it for a quid 😂

When I spent a fiver on the Reading game it said the video pass was valid until the 26th so presumably including the Bournemouth game. Just scoured my account nowhere does it mention my video pass and is trying to charge me for another pass for tomorrow

Leicester going to Thailand to play Spurs today. I mean seriously WTF. One more friendly before the season starts.

This I guess https://www.footballfancast.com/southampton-joel-piroe-championship-gossip-adams-transfer/ interesting but does seem like a guesswork / clickbait article.

We aren’t worried about the money. When we needed to buy players in case we lost them Dragan put his hand in his pocket. I suspect we want to keep the bigger clubs guessing.

Yes but his job is to oversee the Sports Republic rosta. Again as he was supposed to do last season until Joe Shields walked out on us. If you bothered to watch the excellent Jason Wilcox interview he specifically said that Saints will not sign any players unless Wilcox and Martin agree. Can’t be any clearer than that. Dragan also said in a recent interview he could have focussed more on Saints last season. Don’t forget Sports Republic isn’t his only business. He is obviously rectifying that.

Thanks for the replies 👍

I’ve been checking up on The Hundred. Southern Braves are first game on August 1st at Trent Bridge. The same day The Metro Bank One Day Cup starts on the same day with Hampshire at The Ageas Bowl. James Vince is playing for The Braves for example. what’s the point of another cup running at the same time ?

Also medical emergencies in the crowd stopping games is really unhip. Although I’m sure Le Tissier claimed at the time they were caused by vaccinations.
