I don't have trouble believing that, I have trouble with how easily everyone is convinced by one no-mark news agency.

Well how many people have read it? Because you'd have to imagine a lot of gamblers have put money on the usual suspects (Laudrup, Poyet, Mackay), as this is going to be one of the most popular things people are betting on right now. It'd take a lot of people reading these tweets and betting on Yakin as a result for him to be given the shortest odds on that alone. I think it might have something to do with the fact we were also linked with him a couple of months back.
If there is any information it will influence betting. Someone will have read it on twitter and told their mates, and so on. There are two people on twitter who have claimed to have heard interest from Yakin and Koeman, and suddenly they are the two favourites (they weren't before yesterday). I don't see that as a coincidence.
Wasn't Koeman actually mentioned before Pochettino had even gone?
It could be that they're...you know...telling the truth.
Let's try it out.
I was in Reading last night and was in a bar when who should walk in, but Nigel Adkins. I asked if he wanted to go back to Southampton and he winked and said "You never know what will happen in football" before softly humming "oh when the saints" as he walked away. Get your money on him now!

Was he? By whom?
I'm not saying it's impossible that everyone's telling the truth, but any journalist worth his salt will try to get at least two sources for every story, and that must tell you something.
I'm going by what Beefy has been saying.
I still don't think one tweet alone is enough to influence such a busy betting market to such a degree.
I think you overestimate how busy it is, and I've already said it's not "one tweet alone" it's someone claiming to have information, and then that gets passed around. How many people on here will read those quotes and think they are credible? Apparently everyone but me

You question everything tho.
You question everything tho.
And I'm never wrong
Seriously though, it's an outlook more people should adopt.
Can't remember the exact tweet, but a guy chatted to him at Gleneagles.
Yes that's the one I was referring to. It was yesterday wasn't it? Hardly a great leap to assume Pochettino would go at that point.

It's got to be just about the most popular thing to bet on regarding the Premier League right now. I know it gets passed around a bit, but most people now are just quoting various articles on it, which were posted after Yakin became the favourite. I didn't see a whole lot of Yakin to Saints speculation until after he had already got the shortest odds and various media outlets had noticed that.
We must remember these betting markets are called special for a reason. Bookies are very nervous of them and who could ber itk. It takes very little money to rapidly change the odds. Two or three people enquiring would be enough potentially to change things dramatically.
That's just see what happens. It could be true or it could be made up crap. But Koeman is easily a manager should at least interview as is Yakin. If we get one of those or some one around their level I will be pleased. None of this average manager crap.
