Saint Ronald

Having done some DTLW-esque detective work, I found this guy on twitter: http://twitter.com/NGARRITY11
He lives in Edinburgh in Scotland and has no affiliation with Saints, I think he's a Hibs fan. Anyway, he tweeted Skybet and Coral this morning hours before the Pochettino announcement asking what the odds were on Koeman to be the next Saints manager. Apparently his friend caddied for Koeman a couple of days ago, and presumably gathered from the conversations between holes that he'd spoken to Saints and was in line to be our next manager. Still no proof though.
HOWEVER
The first picture on Ronald Koeman's official twitter, posted a couple of hours ago, is this:

A picture of him playing golf at Gleneagles.
I don't know about anyone else but i'm very much putting 2+2 together and making four.

 

I'm getting FOUR too

Edit: I fear my golf pun was too **** and too subtle, so i'm highlighting it

 

I just think it's too weird a thing for people with no connection to the club to make up.

 

Ronald McDonald for saints manager? I'm all for a forward thinking different approach, but maybe that's too far.

Saying that, Ronald would demand red&white stripes as part of the deal, so maybe

 

Well the bookies have certainly got a whiff of cigar and pancakes....what do they say?, "there's no smoke without fire".....

 

They haven't seen me in the kitchen.

 

Just curious, but how far from Southampton is Gleneagles? Is it in Eastleigh?

 

Doesn't necessarily mean anything, could be interviewing a few candidates.

 

No, Gleneagles is a very famous golf course in Edinburgh. It's an hour and a half flight from Southampton. Commuting to London from Southampton takes longer. It's not all steam trains like when you were a lad

 

Well it means he was interviewed, that's something

 

Ah **** I've literally just realised i've got to change my avatar and brilliant Dickens-inspired username

 

What proof is there he was interviewed?

Edit: never mind, i've reread the OP ... blame the lateness of the hour, and the long day I had

 

Lol, I know where Gleneagles is. I'm only 38 too. I wasn't about when trains powered by coal were faster and on time more.

 

How does someone claiming he winked at them on a golf course 400 miles away mean that?

 

The guy who caddied said 'he had a meeting with the director of Southampton last night.'

 

Good work if this pans out!

 

I liked the four (fore) pun but would point out that this is only shouted when a player is well wide of the mark.

Man...puns! They really tee me off..

 

It's really amazing how indiscreet these football people are. Always giving this valuable information out to people they've only just met, to tweet to the world. Makes you wonder why we need journalists at all really...

 

Would probably be a better world without most of them....

 

Smug, smug, smug, smug, smug.
