What does this mean with regards the new training ground, will work continue on it? I'm not certain, but didn't Cortese say that if Southampton were to ever be sold, he would ensure it was to the right kind of person? I wonder if he was potentially being too picky if he'd been charged with selling the club which Katharina didn't like. Gutted by this news.
It's going to take some adjustment for me. Feeling a bit down because Cortese has undoubtedly been the best thing to happen to Saints in that he was the driving force behind all the good that has come out of the last four years and a half years, and the whole thing has been his vision. There are still too many things up in the air for me to feel settled and positive at the moment. I can't honestly say Come on you Saints at the moment, because I don't know what Saints I'd be supporting. As I said before, I don't support bricks and mortar, but people. We'll see who they are in the next few days.
It is vital that she picks a person who can have a great relationship with the staff and players, and not just a good business CV.
Oh f@&k! In Jan too! A few other teams could be rubbing their hands now! All the best Nicola, thank you for bringing yourself and Marcus to our club, it won't be forgotten!
Hopefully it's a former player that's offered the job. It has to be someone who belived in the legacy Nicola has left. Not a mong who just wants to sell the players for the best price.
They've got a Nicola Cortese Appreciation Thread on TSW. If someone starts one up here I certainly won't object.
Am I the only one who does not think we have heard the last ofNicola at Southampton football club ? He is no fool .................
