    Well let's hope the self proclaimed right honourable gentleman leaves a fair chunk of his obnoxious new salary in the honesty box on the way out!!

    Now, if he could just grab a KFC on the way in, he'd be MLT's dream gaffer! <laugh>

    Jeez! I know it's been said before that we've got to stop this cherry picking, even thieving & I appreciate how difficult it is being outside of London, Manchester, et al but I don't get the feeling that the board, ever put up a real fight. RK has provided us with our best 2 Prem finishes ever - surely there's a case to splash the cash, keep him & see where he could have taken us. We seem to just roll over, take some cash "benefit" & move back to the black box. Can't see progress from here - sorry guys. Very down <doh> :headbang: :emoticon-0101-sadsm

    The board did all they could to keep him, they just weren't prepared to pay £7 million a season for his salary. There really isn't much more to it really...

    Always watch MOTD on playback and FFwd thru Poch's ramblings. Looks like that button is going to be getting some more action.

    I know I will have to get my coat after I say this, but this still may not be a betrayal, but a development from active flirtation with his agent. i.e. Ron says he doesn't want to extend, Saints say OK, you can go now if you won't extend.

    I heard some similar rumblings from a friend who works with a few of the players. It seems he gave them too much time off around Nov/Dec (if that's even a thing) and also tore relentlessly into Matty Targett at HT during the Leicester game, the ferocity of which a lot of the senior players took exception to. Certainly had his favourites

    No need to worry about that ex-manager dude.

    These things almost never work out. It's a psycho girlfriend situation. At first you are flattered that she broke up with her boyfriend and is showering you with attention and gifts instead.

    It's only later you start to realize that no normal person acts that way, and the difference is not in the degree with which she loves you but her mental instability.

    Moshiri is going to expect the world from his new manager, and when he can't deliver it he will be sacked and it will be on to Moshiri's new infatuation. I think the guy he hired is pretty solid and all, but if I had basically decided I was going to hire the best manager in the worldth and money is no object that's not the guy I'd pick. Or even close.

    Those twats down the road splashed the cash,I'm very glad we don't.
    No need to be down,if as it seems he's left us for money we're better off without the greedy sod.The club will get it right then onto excitement again.

    Bye Ron, you were starting to remind me of Donald trump anyway.
