Southampton face nightmare scenario of losing Cortese

One thing that needs to be done is a statement from Saints. I notice all their press etc is on lockdown.

 

What? There are three directors other than Nicola.

 

Yep, a statement is needed on this big time. Conveniently, Jim Lucas and Jordan Sibley are away.

 

I'm beginning to fear the worst, but when I step back and look at the cold hard facts instead of media nonsense, I find;

- Cortese has said all along he is here for the long haul
- The Liebherr's have pumped over £70mil in transfers alone in the last few years
- Money pumped into training facilities and infrastructure

These are the facts. None of that looks as if anyone is having second thoughts. Admittedly, the selling Luke Shaw thing would be reason enough for Cortese to quit, but there is still time for all parties to negotiate and backtrack. Also, with a £25 million transfer fee we can easily get a Left Back that is as good as Shaw currently. We will lose his potential development which will definitely sting, but there are other players that it would hurt us to lose more than Shaw.

 

Brendan McGlinchey, Gareth Rogers, Les Reed.

 

Beefy is your 'sources' no comment answer because he doesn't know or he's been told to keep quiet

 

Yep and none of the others are tweeting, it's obvious they have been told not to.

 

think the Ms bit and British are mistakes

 

But it is an executive Board, not one to which Nicolas is accountable.

 

Just said he can't say.

 

Maybe that the Liebherrs want to make some of there money back?

 

it's the board of directors of the company as shown on companies house, he'd resign to them for SFC at least. haven't checked the dmswl company whatever it is.

 

Lol so he has to decide if he wants to accept his own letter of resignation!

 

Then why spend any of the money in the first place!

 

for the parent company presumably he's submit his resignation to himself.

 

if he's got any balls he'll shred it like the bids for players.

 

that it he's gone....











for some lunch

 

I don't get the Shaw thing, because any offer and subsequent transfer would have to be authorised by Cortese.

 

People that make up rumours about this should be banned.

 

That would mean banning NC! somehow I don't think he visits our forum that often to worry!
