    Go away Black. He should be at the very least suspended, then sacked when the club realises he's brought the club's reputation into disrepute.

    If there is evidence he has been involved in corruption he needs to be sacked as fast as possible, obviously at this point we don't know exactly what the allegations are however.

    I assume he hasn't been with us long enough to implicate us?

    Could you provide one fact with regard to what he has done?

    I agree with the sentiment, however IF he is named, then I think the club need to handle it very carefully and that could mean suspending him while they try and get more information. At the very least he'd need to be in someone senior's office tomorrow as soon as that flight lands for a very direct conversation.

    I shall wait for evidence before jumping on any bandwagon.

    Barnsley sacked their assistant after similar allegations. We do not need these off the field distractions. Black can't just take training like nothing has happened. He needs to stay away while Saints investigate. It will almost inevitably lead to his dismissal IMO.

    I did worry as soon as he made that statement it would come back to bite him!

    If that's true then forget suspension, he has to go ASAP.

    Chances are he has done something wrong. But as of yet we have no evidence at all to make any assumptions. Cant suspend someone or sack them until you have some sort of idea what they have done.

    I agree it will probably end up with him leaving. All im saying is lets wait and see what exactly has happened rather than jumping the gun.
