    Someone sent that Sotonians stuff to Adam Blackmore. He's had a read of it and here's his reply...

    "that pretty much nails it for me - concurs with all I have, know & thought"

    I know we are as well but some of your fans visions of grandeur seem to cloud over the fact that you are too.

    He asked Koeman and Koeman said he wasn't interested. What more do you want him to do? Start bugging RK's home?

    If he gets a Barca level job after us, then by definition that'll mean he's done a cracking job.

    That's football, we're all part of the food chain

    Guess you'll have to live with your new manager using you as a bargaining chip that backfired.

    Which means he knows ****e all, as he's patently not got a relationship with him beyond a question at a presser, when all he got was a stock rebuttal, as there'd been no official approach at that point.

    Funnily enough, Tobes, I don't think Blackmore gets his inside information from Koeman... <doh>

    Quite funny really. He came on here saying Koeman was going to Everton. No one believed him at first. Then when our ITK source says something he doesn't like he refuses to believe it. <laugh>

    I'm sure he's weeping into his lager in Turkey as we speak mate.

    Being forced out of Soton to double his money and become one of the best paid managers in the World, taking over a bigger club with a large transfer pot. He must be absolutely devastated that his cunning plan didn't work.

    The timings and sequence of events that bloke off the Saints was quoting as fact are wrong.

    It depends whether Soton let him leave, Everton need to comply to our terms first. Otherwise Koeman will be put on Gardening leave.
