You have made very sound comments up to a point.
I think one of the problems with Harry was his continual use, in interviews, of referring to Saints as "they" when as manager surely it should be "we". What message does that send out for a start ?
We hear this continual claptrap about his man management skills. Maybe if he likes a player but ask the ones he doesnt like - ask yourself how a man manager can continually refer to you and your team mates as "they" !
We had a chance, even on the last day of staying up. A win against Man Utd who were looking to the Cup Final the following week and we were ok. United were not interested, we went one up and then instead of going on we just blew up and the last 25 miniutes were played with no spirit and no hope. Old Saggy chops just stood there, arms folded and watched. He left out Kevin Phillips that day, a move I will never ever if I live to be 100, understand.
He came to us simply to put 2 fingers up to Mandric. When they kissed and made up he was off like a shot.
This time he has well and truly shot himself in the foot. Excellent !
