Golden Balls

Lol that Everton one. Suppose we know why their fans are the way they are now. Thought ours was nice a classy.

Well I don't like it. Once you see the bra, you can't unsee it. Looks better in red too. Not sure if this has been mentioned but the Saints badge looks huge! Suppose my opinion doesn't matter as I'd be unlikely to buy one no matter what the design. Just a let down when we finally got a good kit manufacturer and sponsor.

I have no idea how much influence he had behind the scenes and if the players liked him, but you'd assume his enthusiasm would rub off on them. Shame to see him go.

Lol the #meltdown on this thread.

Slap on the wrist for him I'd expect

So our B team could face them in the Football League Trophy? Although I'm against the plans of a B team, this would be funneh if we beat them. http://bit.ly/294awkS

What? He didn't mention the best fan in world football? He'll need to correct that ASAP.

I think he's actually being serious too. Mental.

Seems he is.

Think it's certain he's replacing Mane

From what Les says there we had 40 odd serious applicants, they got that down to 4 and all 4 were on their original shortlist anyway. He puts this down to how attractive the job and the club were. Well, 2 years later we are even more attractive with the added bonus of European football and an established top half team. No pressure.

According to a mate of mine who follows Spanish football he was incredibly unlucky. Sounds like excuses but apparently they played really good football but the strikers were not putting the chances away and pretty much every decision possible went against them. In a parallel universe he could be doing very very well there. Personally I wouldn't want him to take charge. Maybe assistant would be great but even more unlikely.

I have absolutely no idea how good a coach he is or whether the players like him but I'd like to see him stay.

Initially I wanted FDB. Then the more I thought about it I wanted Emery. Now Emery seems out of reach I'm coming round to the thought of AVB.

Exactly what I was just thinking. They really are an odd bunch.

If you're worried about that I'd suggest you go for a relaxing nap. That won't happen. This isn't Rupert Lowe.

Career-wise it's a strange move for Koeman and clearly money motivated however he will improve them. He will sort that defence out and suddenly they'll be hard to beat. A shame. Like every summer now we'll always be left wondering "what if"

Not long ago...

Keeping staff would be a decent start.

People tell them

100% Unai Emery I'd love to keep Ron. But if I were an Everton fan I'd rather have Emery. De Boar would be decent but I think we are the perfect club for Emery. If it comes to it, we need to get him in on a 4-5 year contract.

If, or what now seems like when he goes to Everton it just confirms that money rules EVERYTHIG in football. Koeman seemed to be the ultimate when it came to honouring contracts and he could easily get a bigger job than Everton. EVERTON FFS!!!

I can't understand why he'd go to Everton when he would clearly have much bigger options open to him but for the first time, I'm worried.

Judging by the badge they've used, this probably isn't the first time they've put it out.

Just seen this on a boozer down there. Had to pull over to get a picture. Was also in danger of crashing my car from laughing so much! Confused by the quotation marks surrounding 'Proud'. Almost like they're being sarcastic.
