    Appears bonkers. After the cockups with our managerial appointments last season it doesn’t feel like this has got of to an impressive start

    That’s one I would have liked at Saints.
    Would love to hear why that rate Martin so highly.
    Surely the other ex-Swansea manager would have been a better bet

    I never thought we were realistically within range of Potter, if Leeds get him I’ll be disappointed.

    If Swansea appoint their manager first… was the whole purpose of this to humiliate us?

    I suspect Martin could've been on Holiday as well

    Everyone else has over the past couple of years. At least this time we don't actually have to watch any football.

    I for one am looking forward to slow possession based football, with little end product. We've never tried that before :azn:

    The year is 2028. Inflation is still sky high and Southampton are preparing to find out who they will play on the opening day of the EFL League 2 season.

    Sky sources have revealed that the Russel Martin appointment will be finalised in the next 48 hours.

    "ahead of pre-training next week"
    "soon"
    "within the next 48 hours"
    etc etc

    Have we covered all possibilities for saying "imminent" yet?

    How about ...

    in a short time shortly presently in the near future before long in a little while in a minute in a moment in an instant
