QED!

Not quite the PR coup this dinlo thinks it is.

The Turkish Super Lig is a relatively low bar of achievement to be frank, and a bit like Scotland / Portugal the big two or three consistently dominate whilst the smaller clubs provide cameos. In the UEFA Rankings the TSL is currently placed tenth, sitting between the Czech Republic and Austria in terms of standard. Personally, Sport Republic's ownership of Turkish and French clubs doesn't bother me one way or another, providing their 'flagship club' (Solak's words) isn't negatively affected.

Status Quo

So much hate. Typical Saintsweb #hate Have a lovely day Treacle x

Good man! Ebeneezer Juric’s got their number!

Happy Christmas to you and yours Francis!

Saints 2 Iron Hoofs 0 Wishing the Saintsweb fraternity a very merry Christmas and a Juric new year! God bless us, every one!

I think Juric is smart and will want to take a look at ABK regardless of any bad feeling or nonsense with previous management. He was signed by Hassenhutl and looked a great addition in his first two months at the club prior to the shoulder injury, aged 21 and two full Germany caps and in the World Cup Squad. On his return RH has been replaced by Nathan Fucking Jones and then Selles. Relegated and Russell Martin has a look for eight weeks and he's sent out on loan to PSV with Jack Stephens preferred and made captain. Post return from loan he's left out of the first team squad by Martin. All in all, he may have been sulking but its not unreasonable to see the reasons he might have wanted out at Saints, and the hope has to be that be that an experienced and credible coach like Juric can get him back to his best in the first team group - clean slate - and if he still wants out in the summer they'll likely be more suitors.

Brownmore appears up his own arse and out of touch with the core support on most things, and always takes the club line to preserve his position and 'contacts'. Everyone I've spoken to seemed pleased to see the back of Martin and has welcomed the arrival of Ivan Juric, in the hope that he has the tools and experience to make Saints competitive again. Then again, a majority would have probably welcomed Ivana Jurex if it meant seeing the back of turgid Rusty!

An ability to grind these type of points away from home has been lacking under Martin, so the current volte face with the U21 manager pulling the levers over the last week is a good sign. If the board can back juric with a couple of solid signings / loans next few weeks that he trusts we might put up a fight and start pissing off oppo managers, fans and the media!

Absolutely, nowt too much wrong with the basic foundation, and you’d hope for some funds for Juric to bring / loan in a few ready mades in the January window. Couple of attackers capable of mixing things up would be nice.
