Marco roses odds just dropped to 16/1..

Probably because someone who knows a bookie was reading SaintsWeb last night and saw his name had been mentioned.

I’m expecting Gio van Brockhorst odds to drop tomorrow 😂

Those 2 losses were also in their last 2 matches.

So he was unbeaten all season until the last week or so. And now he's out of work again. Tough gig.

Best Charlton and I think Tonda Exkhart will be confirmed, but if he then loses the next four games Sport Republic look more idiotic than they currently do.

Think you meant beat. For a moment I thought you were going to post about vintage Man Utd...Best Charlton and Law 🙂

Juric is available 

I thought he was doing alright but I haven't looked since September TBH.

Thoughts and prayers for Kamaldeen Sulemana at this time.

Right place, right time springs to mind.

As Brentford have shown, promoting from within is the right call when the model is established. You don't want an outsider to come in and upset the model/ culture that is working so well. 

That is absolutely not where Saints are right now. As the debacle with Still showed, you need a big personality, gravitas and credibilty to make big changes. Or the players will simply ignore you- as we now hear happened with Still.

This feels very similar to what we needed when Koeman came in. Les Reed (for all his faults) said that they decided they needed a big name first and foremost and then used the data to pick the best manager available. There were other, more successful (in terms of data) managers available but he was what we needed AT THAT POINT. So the black box identified who was best within the parameters set. Not just.. whos won the most games/ got the best xG in Europe.

Now is the time for the same approach IMO. We have the resources and talent. We don't need a high risk choice to get some marginal extra gains. Basic competance with instant respect right now is the way to go. Viera or Rogers are the only ones in that category. 

What a great post that is. Agree 100%

Theolonius Monkou is a brilliant name.

Thought I had a touch of Theolonius Monkou once. Just trapped wind though.
