We need to get rid of Austin ASAP.
Slightly off topic but when LeG posted this back in April, he wasn't referring to this was he?

I don't think for 1 second we will build a new stadium. Anyhow if we do and it's at Jacksons Farm, that'll be a disaster.
IMO the stadium (for a relatively new stadium) is located in the perfect location. I'd be gutted if we moved from pretty much the center of town.
I'd suggest it's more realistic that we expand St Marys and develop surrounding land (as per original plans under Cortese). I'm sure someone mentioned about the requirement of an additional train station if we would like to expand? Well perhaps the plans for a new tram line could assist this?
An interesting years ahead I think! Personally, I fell like stadium revamp is required. It wouldn't make a difference to me or you, but these american and Chinese fans would love a modern stadium with top of the range corporate facilities!
I've been thinking this for a long long time. St Marys looks incredibly dated and worn. Look at the King Power Stadium and compare it to ours - built only 1 year later but looks SO much more modern and with the times especially with the modern blue fascias on the exterior etc. St Mary's needs money throwing at it if we want to maintain our image IMO and continue to grow our brand.

Patience, only time will tell.

He's already scored 3 in 4 this season on top of his 24 in 42 (2015/2016) & 11 in 17 (2014/2015).
At the end of the day, it's another option however it's an option I just don't see fitting into the system we've got. That means we'd have 5 striking options and technically we don't play with an out and out striker/pairing (false 9 (Tadic/Boufal) with 2 wing / inside forwards)

So, Stuart Taylor joins on 1 year deal. Is this the squad filler Le Goddard (I think) was on about?

What's the kit on the right?
The socks on the home kit are much nicer in this photo...

Claude number 2 inc.
Any idea roughly on timescale? Talk yesterday was that today was THE day. Maybe the No. 2 is the hold up?

Here's his team's goals from last season.
Some really nice, dare I say it, Arsenal style goals there.

Now would be a good time for K billy to come in and tell us that we won't be seeing Walter Zenga take the job.Guan should be back from his holiday too.
I was going to say hopefully it's time for another update especially after this weekends supposed further round of talks.

I believe they are at the moment. If i'm honest neither were well known to me so can't say anything for or against either candidate but both would be intresting. It would to many of our fans be like when Poch was appointed, many asking who?.
Eduardo Berizzo at Celta Vigo? Another Bielsa disciple.
Vincenzo Montella? Former Fiorentina manager. Only sacked because he fell out with the owner.

Just had the most bizarre and of the wall name thrown at me as in the frame , not gonna say who but you guess , connections to the club as player , has managed at the highest level , in europe and internationally , advocates attacking football , not adverse to bringing through youngsters , would buy into the 5 year plan etc , has been out of work for a while .
??????????????
Rosler? Again fits all criteria but hasn't managed internationally!

Pahars? Only one that fits all the criteria but is currently in management.

Lewis Coombes from BBC South Today:
@LEWIS_C: Is FDB interested in #SaintsFC job? Agent: "No." - fair enough... Would tie in with reports in Italy linking Dutchman with Lazio..

Manuel Pellegrini wasn't even on the short-list, unlike De Boer. (Flores wasn't either, but it was drawn up before the end of the season, so maybe that's changed? Keep listing names games, I'll ask to see if they are in contention).
Pellergrini would mean that at least 2 board members have done a huge U-turn on future appointment profiles. Perhaps the club are just letting the rumour ride to show we can attract big names? From a purely personal perspective it seems a bad fit.
I don't think it's real.
The bit in bold. Has this got anything to do with the "new direction" you mentioned a few weeks back? Are we looking at younger mangers in for the long haul with the chance to build sustainably over 4/5 years with 2/3 sales each summer?
-
I don't pick the names, just passed on who has has been confirmed as on our short-list. Last time the press had Holloway and Phil brown, so I guess this is progress. 3/3
Steve / Mods, someone give this guy a full membership please?!

Southampton to rescue Calum Chambers from Arsenal nightmare with loan move for former defender

If it does indeed turn out to be Virgin Media then I wonder if the club could do a deal with them to get superfast fibre optic wifi installed at the stadium?!

Billy Sharp set to make a return as well.

I think it's pretty clear something is happening with LD Sports. They have pulled out of Espanyol's kit sponsorship, theres the talk from Hypo above about money etc and the very few training pictures released so far say it all IMO. The training kit usually has an LD Sports logo somewhere on it (the back, front and centre, under UA logo)... its nowhere to be seen. Tomorrow will be very revealing.
