    Just saw that cohen and Sheehan are coming with Jones. Any ideas if they are specialist coaches? They are recently retired ex pros, all be it not at the top level. Can’t get the Bradley Walsh character from Mike basset out of my head now, chasing the lads for a ball. Haha

    Not sure that is very reassuring! Would be interested to know how Hassenhuttle compared over the last two years.

    Anyone having trouble with the Saints website on mobile? Trying to get onto Saints Live page for the commentary but it says "Sorry something has gone wrong".

    Yes, although he did have a season's worth of Champions League experience, I guess. But finished bottom of a group - on 2 points - they were never going to win, though were below Sheriff Tiraspol. So barely counts.

    Does make you wonder why were so keen to ditch Sturrock for Wigley, barring player Egos

    If I remember right Sturrock was sacked because he tried to coach PL players and they didn't like it so yeah it was player egos. Also didn't he come in just after Gorden Strachan which made it twice as hard for him

    You are right, got sacked straight after beating Blackburn at home in game 2 of the season, very strange. I think had we peservered and avoid Wigley and Redloss we would have been okay. The guy was not given a fair crack

    I am usually pessimistic and joke about it .

    in all seriousness though I am really quite worried about the new manager . Don’t know why , I just am .

    Overall Ralph is 1.26 PPG. So far this season it was 0.92.

    Not sure about the last 2 years, can’t be bothered to work it out!
