I think Roeman originally wanted to finish the last year contract (as promised) and go to arsenal to replace wenger. However, Reed insisted that he had to sign a new contract or leave immediately.
You are so naive. You should learn the lesson from your neighbour. It is not about taking one manager or a few players. You will still be below us even after you have taken whole of our team.
We would only attract those managers who would jump the ship two years later. Our management and treatments on Padrew and Adkin have scared good managers away.
Is it just a big/small problem? I think it is even worse. It is reported that Eddie Howe has snubbed the chance to go Southampton. If it is just a big/small problem, we are not smaller than bournemouth.
