Probably because they trust Cortese ,no mistakes so far. Their attitude is " oh youve got a new manager in charge. The other one was under performing ? Fine Nicola whatever you think is best". Youre another one Id expect more sense from. This sort of thing happens in businesses all over the world.

To me its quite simple. Cortese wants this club to do well probably more than anyone on this board. He is an egotist and will want to be proved right for starters. I totally appreciate what Adkins has done for this club. But I reckon he was getting out of his depth. Weve all moaned about it. His faffing around with goalkeepers,his frankly bizzare substitutions. I mean for goodness sakes how many winning positions have we given away this season. I feel sorry for Adkins but we are in the Premier League now and Cortese has invested an enormous amount of money for us to be a couple of points above Reading. I am also getting ****ed off with all the ******s coming out of the woodwork as soon as there is some dissent amongst the supporters. I am fully behind Corteses decision ( we are not a ****inn charity) and I am fully behind the new manager. Whats wrong with that ? No ones died . Nige will get a good pay off and another good job. We have a manager that was interviewed by Real Madrid and we are still signing players. Whats the problem ? All this girly mass hysteria is the same as when Pardew got the push. How did that go ?

This. Im surprised no ones suggested a candle light vigil. Maybe they have..........................

A joke yes ?

At last a thinking mans article with no agenda. Encouraging as well.

Could the music not have been Candle In The Wind ?

Not since Cortese took over.

Id expect better from you. Why has he got to be nice ? As long as he achieves results. Which he has. Ive worked with many managers over the years and without fail the "good blokes" are schitt and the tough bastards are good at thier job.

Stupid comment. Of course he will it will just have to be verified. Common practise in Italian football. Pochettino will be perfectly aware about how our club is run.

Cortese tried to sign Theo Walcott. Shocking behaviour.

Bloody Cortese hiring someone Real Madrid were thinking of employing. The guys EVIL I tell you.

Evil ? How old are you? Evil is murdering someone. All Mr Cortese has done is sack an employee and get someone better in. Grow up.

Hes our manager now and sounds an excellent choice. Lets get behind him.

Superb post.......................................................who was the poster ? OMG ! No seriously well thought out. Southampton FC is bigger than one man.

Im not passive and I certainly dont feel butt fu,cked. I think Cortese has made a brutal but intelligent decision for the betterment of the club. Get over your "Princess Diana" hysteria for a moment and think about the games this season. The fiasco with the keepers. The dopey substitutions (De Ridder) and the amount of times we were in a winning position and threw points away. The amount of money we spent and we are only a couple of points away from Reading. Dont forget all this bed wetting whingeing is only a repeat of the fans reaction when we ditched Pardew,how did that go ? Adkins was a top bloke but had gone as far as he could. Time for a change. I am really excited about our future. My only concern is the reaction of dim witted fans like yourself who havnt thought this through.

Calling Cortese names is just retarded. Lets just simplify it for you bed wetters out there. Adkins did a superb job getting us to the Premier but was clearly out of his depth.If you dont believe just go back over the results this season. We have lost and drawn from winning positions. Not to mention a couple of appalling matches Wigan, Sunderland. Some outright peculiar substitutions. The faffing around with the goalkeeper situation and so on. Not to mention the amount of money Adkins was given to spend and still we are only a few points above an absolute ****e Reading. Cortese was absolutely right to make the decision. The fans reaction has verged on a Diana like form of mass hysteria.

People were saying the same when Pardew was sacked, maybe a little less mawkishness though.

If the game goes ahead.

I love the way these asss holes come out at the first sign of fan discontent .

This

He will going on about the carpets.

Sorry I didnt join the pitchfork weilding rabble.

Agreed and how many games were we in a winning position and lost or drew.

Well said.
