Saint Billy

Brilliant news!.

No wonder some of our player's looked a bit lethargic at times!.

Perhaps we should call on our mates from Leicester to ram home the point that history is what it is...............in the past!

Did Guan impart that info before or after the Koeman news broke?

Good point. It just shows that picking a manager is as much as a lottery as picking a player. I had Ranieri dowm as the first manager to be sacked last season!.

I have got this feeling that none of those on the list will end at Saints.

Surely not just a coincidence that the two players, VVD and JWP, who have both recently renewed their contracts are the two players linked with Koeman wanting to take with him. Makes me wonder if this has all been going on longer than we thought and that the board got wind of Koeman wanting to take VVD and JWP and quickly got them to sign new long term improved contracts.

Have they gone!!!..................... They must be busy having Chicken & Chips and a can of Coke!.

Unbelievable names in there, makes my blood run cold.

AVB having a year off and doesn't want to return to UK, Howe's not interested.......if you can believe the media! Not many left in the frame so it appears.

Or it could be Jurgen Crop!!

I'm coming round to the idea but will Howe leave the safety of his spiritual home?. Plus, are we not doing the same to Bournemouth as Everton are doing to us which has upset so many on here?.

Hope Sammy stays!.

Thats not how I'm reading it but who knows.

Seems to fit in with what plastic or pancake stated earlier.

If this is true its farcical!.

I do unfortunately remember some on here saying a similar thing when it was rumoured that Paul Allen was mooring his boat at Ocean Village lol.

Start exercising your cheek muscles, so many people to boo next season!

He's obviously on his way to sign then.

Seriously, what did you expect!.

Agree 100%.

Thanks for your input.

I remember many on here last season getting a bit resentful regarding Koeman. Tinkerman was one of the phrases I remember, playing some out of position and making odd substitutions. Yes in the end getting 6th spot was more than welcome but in fairness it was a very strange season where upon most of the big clubs misfired which I think contributed to Leicester winning the prem by some margin. I'm not upset at Koeman going, I liked him but was not his biggest fan and I think he will take a huge gamble being the savior of Everton, this will either make him or break him as a manager with the huge expectations on his shoulders. I for one am excited about getting a new manager and the changes it will bring and am happy to witness some of the big guns splashing out the big money and failing miserably.

Do you think saints fans are any different than any other clubs fans?.

Nice bloke, loyal probably, any good since he left saints?........No.
