We were in the Premiership when SCW joined. I distinctly remember Rupert inviting him to Aston Villa on the first day of the season as his guest and he was appointed shortly after. I welcomed the appointment as I felt he had a lot to bring to the Table. Unfortunately it did not bring one iota of advantage and as you say, we were relegated.

 

He wasn't in a position at the club until after relegation but as Claus says in his testimonial programme, he was involved behind the scenes during our relegation season.

 

No doubt if we had stayed up he would have taken his usual credit. "motivational genius inspires Saints to safety" sort of thing
