Official: Les Reed Sacked

Incoming 2 year ban on signing Directors of Football for illegally tapping up...

 

34? Blimey, I took the wrong career path!

 

So he doesn't like foreign owners and thinks Ross Wilson is **** at his job. Sounds like a great fit

 

Thinking Ross Wilson is **** at his job is reason enough to employ him.

 

Fulham sack Jokanovic and appoint Ranieri.

 

Ok lets snap him up...

 

I thought Fulham would be doing a lot better than they are, expected him to do well but their defence is worse than ours. We were apparently keen on Jokanovic either before or after Pellegrino, I think it was when we sacked Puel.

 

What worries me about Jokanovic is much like Hughes he has been sacked form a relegation rival. The difference is Hughes had the Premier League pedigree whereas he hasn't.

 

That would be as ridiculous as when Reading appointed Adkins. Solves nothing. (Although Matty would clearly be over the moon)

 

So long as we bounce up to 16th in May, I’d take that for this season. It’s been obvious for a while that the club needs a complete change of direction, and it looks like we’re finally getting that. So long as we can avoid relegation this season, things might finally be looking up.

Nice words.

 

I've never got the hate for Ralph. It was him being honest and trying to downplay expectations while Les kept coming out with the pipedreams. Much rather listen to Ralph trying to sound positive while not going overboard than Les just tell us his make believe.

And yes I'm late to the party. Didn't know Les and Hunter had gone until today. Not been watching Saints much last couple of seasons (none this year.)

 

Didn't he do that at West Ham too?

 

Harry had never watched I'm a Celebrity, so was expecting a lot more comfort. Poor Harry

 

Bet his fee comes in a brown bag addressed to Rosie.

 

He talks such utter mumbo jumbo, American business speak and to say openly "back down ladies and gents we are not a big club". We really don't want to hear that. We're not stupid, we know we can't compete financially with the genuine big clubs, but we aren't a small club either. We want to dream and get excited, not in the way I did when I was a teenager, but believe that the club might at least be a heroic and give it a go. I don't get that at the moment.

Webber denies he has been approached by Southampton.

 

Well thats pretty clear
"No, I’m happy to answer it. I had no approach. I wouldn’t welcome it. I am happy to be here."

 

So he's thinking about it.
