shurlock Posted 23 May, 2014 Share Posted 23 May, 2014 I wouldn't hold your breath. It is interesting how this story has acquired some momentum though. The tweet from the Veho CEO is the most interesting, for him to publicly state that he believes he is staying when there is nothing firm to go on could leave him extremely embarrassed should it be tripe. The guy is first and foremost a Saints fan, then a CEO who is meant to be professionally detached. Its a microcosm of the fan on the board problem.

Turkish Posted 23 May, 2014 Share Posted 23 May, 2014 I see MP is absent from the just released "Rowe signs a new contract" photo - Reed is in his place. Les looks very happy in that shot. No doubt pleased with his works as he goes about his business quietly behind the scenes. Able to sign off for the week happy and content, it won't be the last time we are him smiling this summer. Good to see and affirms the quiet confidence of the new board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Warrior Posted 23 May, 2014 Share Posted 23 May, 2014 Can we design a new really scarer roller coaster ride Called the Southampton journey into the unknown . One minute we are in the depths of depression , then the heights of ecstasy and then fitzhugh fellow comes along and we are travelling down shark and crocodile infested waters .

jasonb Posted 23 May, 2014 Share Posted 23 May, 2014 Hmm Express and Metro... hardly bastions of the truth. I think its the usual stance of wait until the official site, Beeb etc. A few rogue bandits now breaking rank and reporting/tweeting the deal to Spurs is stalling/faltering/was never happening in the first place. Basically nothing has still happened (sic). Beer o'clock for me chaps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Who? Posted 23 May, 2014 Share Posted 23 May, 2014 Poch is staying a Saint, but I do have a feeling it will only be for next season. But hey Ho, he is staying. Now onto keeping the team together, which again I think we will........ For a season. Of course if we progress on this season, next season, I think they will stay again. It has to be top 6 I think next season.... This could be a tough ask, but keep the management and next the players and add a couple..... Who knows! All I can say is Mopo staying is an excellent start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuncanRG Posted 23 May, 2014 Share Posted 23 May, 2014 No more reliable a source than the Express or Metro, but the Daily Star are reporting that the Spurs boardroom are split over whether Pochettino is the right man and that's sabotaged the deal. If it's true Southampton are certainly in a position to capitalise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Posted 23 May, 2014 Share Posted 23 May, 2014 Since The Metro article only mentions 'one more season' that is not saying that Poch has signed his new contract.

S-Clarke Posted 23 May, 2014 Share Posted 23 May, 2014 Wouldn't read anything to MP not being there today. Omar isn't what I'd call a first team player as yet, more of an U21 player. Players that sign extensions who are part of the FT (i.e Gallagher) will have MP with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erm, the first paragraph of the Metro article reads as follows: "Mauricio Pochettino looks set to sign a new contract with Southampton despite reported interest from Tottenham."

And ask yourself this, if you REALLY knew he was staying which button would you press - the one to instantly make you several thousand pounds, or the one to send a tweet?
