    Good idea. My Mum lives there so we could all pop in for cucumber sandwiches after :)

    Is she married to Philip? If so, I might have to bash his head in with a cricket bat.

    Could be worse, could have the most talentless squad in the EPL and be fighting for our lives!

    I'd still far rather be in a state of flux than supporting a team managed by Fat Sam and run by a couple of shady porn barons.

    Don't worry. If we're in the pub waiting for all this to blow over we won't be leaving anytime soon and by then we'll all be too drunk anyway.

    No idea, mate. Was told earlier that the club had drafted something up but that things are ongoing and haven't reached a conclusion yet.

    He had no waves.... or so the story goes. Unless you mean the lad that is in at Liverpool until we sign him in the summer.

    Let's not engage Trixter please; there are a lot of people trying to keep up with the current events, and they probably don't want to just see people taking silly pops at each other. I'm sure he's already got plenty of his own tears to wallow in as it is anyway.

    Ok thanks for the update. Something needs to be said by the club very soon.

    The Guardian are reporting that Cortese has instructed his lawyers to draw up a severance package, and he will depart in the coming days.

    I heard someone say that it's time for din-dins, but that may be not what you're after.

    What if the family are prepared to sell the club , but not to a group that has ANY involvement with Cortese ?

    Wouldn't matter so much if our style wasn't based so much on Cortese's plan. We bought into it and now face having to readjust our view. We were lucky with Markus...wouldn't trust anyone else who wants to buy a football club. I know clubs go on, but I like who we are. Don't tell me that it hasn't happened yet...wedidn't believe Adkins sacking either. Sounds like Nicola has had enough.

    Southampton media department have told the press that tomorrow's pre-match press conference will be at 3pm.

    See you then, folks...

    That YouTube channel is going to be pretty heavily subscribed right then methinks. I suspect that Poch will stonewall it and just reaffirm his commitment to Nicola mind you.
