If you had one question, and one question only to ask each of the following people in a one to one interview, what would you ask them? Nicola Cortese. Nigel Adkins. Any 1 player of your choice. Let's see what comes up...
Nicola - What did you see in Saints to convice Saint Markus to buy the club? Nigel - What makes you so happy and positive!? Tommy Forecast - Why are you a ****ing footballer!?
Cortese: Who are you hoping to sign this summer? Nigel: When oh when are you going to get rid of that useless twat De Ridder for goodness sake? Morgan: Do you like older women by which I mean very very much older women? Let us hope he says no so that my life can get back to normal because the very lovely Mrs Godder's infatuation with Morgan has gone on long enough now.
NC- Why was Pardew sacked? NA- how far up the league can you see southampton going in the future? Adam Lallana- were there any clubs who bid for you?
I know what I'd ask Nicola Cortese. I'd ask him to reiterate his ambition for the club and where he wants to take it. Of Nigel I'd ask him if he was prepared for that answer and journey that Nicola had set the club on. Not really bothered about what players do. They come and go. Of course, while they're here they can be favourites, like Rickie. I suppose I could ask Lionel Messi if he would accept only playing when Adam was injured..?
Cortese: What is our maximum transfer budget? Nigel: Do you and Nicola always see eye to eye? Fonte: Do you want your back scrubbed?
Cortese: What is the transfer kitty? Nigel: What players do you want? Lambert: How could you improve your game for the premier league?
Answers: NC Hey what is this kitty talk, you fool? I have seen this Hello Kitty everywhere. Is it some ancient Mafia code? NA I don't want any players or their wives. I'm more than happy with my missus, thanks RL Erm ... don't know, mate. Just made up to be in the Prem. Nice one.
