I actually think the manager might learn and come good. The question is... will he be given enough time, and the right backing. Unpopular view I know. But his football is certainly better than his predecessor's, and in reality he has now drawn with united and spurs, and beaten watford and Fulham. Not horrendous from his last 5games, but palace was still poor. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Don't waste your time on whelk. I am with you in thinking we should aim to do a lot better than Silva. But if he comes he comes. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

No. But he might be a pompey fan.

Good of you to share such trusted information.

Is targetts agent the same lot as reed's son's?

Pay per view will be worth more.

Having spent the past 2-3 years moaning about Les, the board, and our complete change in ambition. If that is true, i'm probably on some kind of blacklist at this point It's good if they do monitor fan boards though. I'd rather the club's management monitor fan's opinions that remain completely oblivious to them. I thought it was telling the summer we sold Chambers and everything really started to kick off, they put a hold on more deals at that point.

Well I guess that's kind of my point. I don't think we can get many managers who will significantly improve on Mopey. I think the squad needs serious investment, and I don't think this board either realise it, or are prepared to do it.

We have had a big man up top since league 1 to Puel. It's exactly what we did with Adkins, Poch and Koeman. You crumpet!

Its possible this guy is what the manager (and therefore) team need. He has worked with him before so he knows exactly what he is getting. Therefore on further consideration, if he comes, i will be enthused.

The team has hardly any goals in it (for the last two games JWP has been our main goal threat), and the defence is weak. I would also question the team's fitness and work rate tbh. The squad is a shadow of previous years. And as Puel is showing at Leicester, he has massively improved results there compared to here.

That assumes we will get a new manager who is better than Puel or Mopey... and spend money. We won't do either with this board.

Put it this way. If your protest causes the serious harm to the club of relegation, is it worth while when the alternative may lead to us staying competitive in the premier league. If we protest to the point or creating a toxic and negative atmosphere we will 100% get relegated. And the only thing that will bring meaningful change is a complete change at board level.

Protests that create a toxic atmosphere are clearly bad at this point. Anyone who conducts one is doing more harm than good and should be turned on by fellow saints fans. Those kind of protests are for when the **** has really hit the fan and it makes no difference.

The previous 5 year plan was devised and implemented before Les Reed Joined. The current five year plan is his brain child. See the difference?

Systematic miss-management. Board have to go. Simple as that. Every element of the club is rotten except for the bank balance (and that will change if we go down).

You'd think the heir to a billion dollar empire would learn to spell... or at least to proof his messages.

I am confused, are you using our recent seasons as justification for good performance of the board given our relegation fight this year?

Similar... i am logging on in the slim hope (and I know its slim), that there is some positive news about the club. Either some good signings, or an investor that cares, Les Reed leaving etc etc... Anything that can be taken as a sign of forward progress.

A case of either more PR lies or ineptitude from the board. One or the other.

As one of the original "Les Reed Out" group.... yes I am thinking like you. Although it would be political suicide with the fanbase if the board allow that to happen.

Off the record, how much commission to you get from liverpool?

I think this will either turn ugly against the board, or the team (and Mopey) will grind out a result. My heart says the latter, sadly my brain thinks this is saints and it will go badly

TBF, wasn't he involved at Milan or something?

Les Reed has done a stellar job.
