Posting on here ...rather than Win Gin With Vin....because he might get excited thinking another person has entered. And by the way everyone....get on there and give it a go.....you only have a few days (how few seems to be a matter of debate...let's go for Friday). I was interested to see where entrants thought Saints would finish....anywhere between 6th (there's only one number 7....bless his little cotton socks:emoticon-0109-kiss:) and 12th. I was wondering if no one thought we would finish below 12th or if (like me) they just couldn't bear to predict a worse position. I have moved from my start of season thoughts (8/9th) to now being ecstatic if we finished 12th. It's not about how the usual suspects are doing, but about our dip in form and how well some other teams have improved. Can I take 12th now, please.
 
Nothing major came from the interview
Interesting that he alleged that The Oxo was miss behaving in training and generally being a pain. Kept getting fined for behaviour and his family were causing issues. Cortese rang Arsenal and offered to broker a deal to move him on. Used the money to fund the development of the academy and some player purchases
A fan rang in to thank him for what he did for the club (went down well) but then strangely said that lots of Saints fans don't like Les Reed and Ralph Kruger but NC retorted that being popular doesn't mater, they appear to being successful since he moved on so move on.
NC knows nothing about the Chinese take over
NC wouldn't be drawn too far on the reasons for leaving but felt he and others in the club had become stale and complacent with a loss of focus on the objectives.
NC said he felt it was good that Saints put their foot down on VVD as he has a contract and sending an email transfer request should have been put in the bin as that can't over ride a contract. Felt the situation showed that the management and players aren't close enough that this situation has arisen
NC said that he thought Saints had bought Courtinio, they had gone through the club, agreed terms and fees but he alleged that Liverpool did a deal directly with the player and the agent (who earned a lot more than he would have done if the player had come to us) so our deal was put aside as the didn't want to discuss terms with us ....... a bit of a common thread with our Scouse friends
NC is ready to come back to football for the right project but not likely to be in England
