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"
The same bloke who said he Koeman had no interest in the Everton job the other week?

His finger is right on the pulse....

I know we are as well but some of your fans visions of grandeur seem to cloud over the fact that you are too.
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
 
Yeah this was the bit that doesn't fit at all. Didn't use the academy, players hated him, crap at training, ****s off on holiday all the time, then why offer him a new deal? Also the potential sticking point about having a clause that he can't bid for any of our players if he goes to Everton (pretty sure this sort of clause is illegal anyway) why care if all the players hate him as they wouldn't go?

Good point !
 
He asked Koeman and Koeman said he wasn't interested. What more do you want him to do? Start bugging RK's home?
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.
 
Look at the post further back which has since been confirmed by numerous journos like those at the BBC. Have fun giving it a read, turns out he is not all that keen ;)
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.

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>
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.
