Anyone seen the eight minute apology by the Southampton manager. It’s on the Sky News website. Sorry, I don’t know how to copy and post it.

He does come across as sincere and it looks like he is a meticulous young manager who is totally dedicated to his job and football. I can see why the owners don’t want to lose him.

However, as he says about half way through the video, the EFL rules are different and he should have known that. Of course he knew! I suspect he will be closely monitored next season and no doubt he’ll be taking a bit of stick from away supporters.
 
Well here's where Championship promotion odds are at the moment according to B365 - typically, the 3 ex-Prem top the list..........

Interesting how long the odds are on lincoln.
I wonder how much shorter they would have been had Skubala stayed?
I can see us finishing higher than the odds suggest.

Fair play he does appear sincere and not looking to make excuses but if he didn't know the rules surely people around him did, so why didn't they point this out, or if they did why did they continue? At the end of the day he has cost his club a lot of money and its reputation and will be a focus of ridicule next season

If he didn't know the rules what was he doing in his seventeen months as assistant manager, to Gerhard Struber, at Barnsley? Someone should be asking the question as to whether or not the two of them were spying on other clubs. Add in the fact he went to Barnsley just over a year after the Leeds spygate business, and his ignorance plea looks very weak. :emoticon-0138-think
