Delighted for Morgan, it's not before time. That makes 4 players who played for us in League 1, just 4years ago, going to Brazil. Shame Jose didn't get a late call.

Didn't the original dome collapse and had to be replaced? That won't have come cheap!

Couldn't disagree more with this. Cortese wanted to get rid in January and the deal was all but done until the new board took over and asked him to stay. He would have been here for the rest of his career if any club bar Liverpool, come calling and who saw that coming? Nobody on here and probably not Rickie himself. I know that if I were a pro footballer, who had worked my way through the leagues and Saints came calling for me, I'd be there like a shot!

Some tit on twitter saying we're going to unveil Felix Magarth.

Koeman was a great international player who has played for and coached at various levels, some of the biggest clubs in Europe. How is that like Wotte??

Great post. Agree with it all and brought tears to my eye reading it!

Somebody should sign up the rights to his life story. Reckon they could make a Hollywood blockbuster of it, especially if he helps Liverpool win the premier League. Will always be a legend here and I reckon we got our money's worth!

Gross is being linked because of the Swiss connection. Still more likely to be Yakin if they do go that route, despite Peachy saying it's unlikely to be an non-English speaker. Many of those linked have pros and cons and one fans delight will be another's horror show. TBH most being linked could do a decent job here. One thing's for sure, we are not going to get an Ancellotti, a Pellogrini, or a Guardiola.

I think he'd be perfect for us, would be well respected and would have good contacts to bring in decent players. It would however be another short term appointment because we would be (yet again) a stepping stone for something bigger in the PL.

Utterly ridiculous. There seems to be a serious attempt by some parts of the media to try and destabilise the club. If we had 9 players good enough for top 5 teams, we seriously underachieved last season, in finishing 8th.

How does Johnson get in above Nat Clyne??

The Peru shirt they're wearing at Wembley tonight is a strange red sash on red background!

We want Lallana! No!! We want Lallana!! No!! We want Lallana!! Still No! Ok, what about Lambert? £9 million? Done!!

I took that to be Oswaldo out and Messi in.

I don't think anyone uses Spurs as a stepping stone. Which manager has left them with their reputation enhanced?

They would have had to have asked permission to speak to him. Pretty sure that hasn't happened. Not saying it won't.

Wondering if it is a North American firm that Kreuger has had dealings with before?

Filed under another rumour to be believed when seen!

Can't remember the last game called off for a frozen pitch, though. Waterlogging and fog maybe. I think we had one at the Dell called off for frozen water pipes.

Is there a Premier League rule? He does mention new irrigation as well.

Andy Gray has just tweeted s picture of the surface dug up for a new irrigation system and under soil heating installation. When was that announced? Still looks in better nick than the Peterborough pitch did the other night.

I do think it was a mistake to come in and state they were inheriting a difficult situation though. It was a sound bite lapped up by the media, that we had to sell to balance the books, which a distablised the club somewhat.

It's hardly surprising that Cortese fell out with Adidas, he did with just about everyone we've had contacts with. Probably why Kat pulled the plug IMO.

This should be the Italian badge. Shooting one way til the going gets tough, then changing sides and shooting the other way.

Have we ever had as many players come through to pro-ranks from 2/3 year youth intake before? Usually lucky if more than one makes it per year.
