    I've got/had a massive soft spot for Southampton (still do for their fans!) but the initial responses to this are hilarious in retrospect!

    To be fair I've been rather underwhelmed with Chris Hughton, I think we should get Adkins while he's available as he's not going to be out of a job for very long <ok>

    Adkins took Southampton from 22nd in League One to 15th in the Premier League in 28 months. Lost 2 of the last 12 games. Sacked? For what?

    Isn't it well known that Cortese is slightly madder than Flavio Briatore & Abramovich combined?

    The new geezer might be ok but its a big risk. Monday night will see a fan backlash and Everton are no pushovers.

    Living on the IOW, I have a bit of a soft spot for Southampton and have been pleased that they seem to have come to grips with the PL. This is an astonishing decision. Most of my mates are devastated.

    No one said we were safe, but if we are. We won't be playing QPR next season. Nor I suspect Southampton after todays events.

    I'm going to bookmark this one, best load of rubbish spouted in weeks.

    So Southampton who are what 4 points behind you now and much higher in current form are relegated??

    Shame you've only posted 66 times, a few more pearlers like that are needed since Beefy wound his neck in

    Wow, this is a weird decision. But I suspect it will make our season a bit easier. I'm so glad we seem to be run by sane people. In many ways, I hate the Premier League.

    WTF??!! Feel sorry for all the saints fans! Completely absurd decision. Maybe there should be a written realistic achievements for each club set at the start of the season submitted to the FA and after 10 games till the end of the season if they are not achieving them then only there can the manager be sacked. Oh dear oh dear oh dear.... Delia you may have made some mistakes, but we salute you for not being a complete nutter (games vs Man City aside) and trying to do your best for the club!
