    Saints are the Black Hole of football. We suck in all the malcontents and shirkers drifting in the football cosmos. How about Brian Cox for manager. To infinity and beyond.

    Possession based ideology too. Would be going backwards for sure

    Relegation to League One is the Event Horizon - No escape, even with new owners. If we're a Black Hole, maybe we should have tried to sign Stephen Hawking while he was still a free agent. Being dead has slowed him up a bit, but his wheelchair was surprisingly rapid and manoeuvrable

    His voice was less monotone and robotic than Will Still's...

    We already knew that no? Rohl was our first choice but we couldn't get it done with the SW chairman being impossible to deal with and not wanting to pay above price, so as to get it done and the new manager in with plenty of time to get the house in order (lol that went well) we went with our second choice which was Still.

    Not really a surprise as Germany is where we have signed a fair few players, but likely means whoever we get won’t have “Championship experience” that a lot seem to want atm

    I think it will be Tonda permanently anyway

    Everything just screams they want to give Eckert the job providing he does well in these 2 games. Sigh.

    Should've been sounding out managers before sacking Still, not sacking him and then taking time to find someone. Double sigh.

    As did Downs and Quarshie. So it’s a ‘no’ from me.

    Championship experience is essential. Spors has lost the right to be experimental imo

    Quarshie has shown promise, if still raw.

    Unless he can somehow persuade Marco Rose. Then he can slip quietly into bed with me.
