Weren't there rumours about the players also not being too keen, at least compared to Koeman? Maybe I've misremembered.

He's still listed as a director of the Sport Republic Holding company though.

The various claims on owlstalk: “My god will everyone chill Danny is not going anywhere An enquiry was made about the fee needed to talk to him Southampton said NO They are now trying to get him to do a Bruce and he is refusing to do so He took training I am told and was asked by players what's going on He told them he is committed to seeing the season out” They claim that we’re going with Hjulmand, based on a “Well placed source who works in Media relations for Southampton” https://www.owlstalk.co.uk/forums/topic/335365-russel-martin-sacked-we-should-be-worried/page/30/#comments

What will the record say?

Not the first time he has changed his mind! “On 6 May 2022, Eredivisie team Heraclesannounced that Vicens would take charge of its first team from 1 July 2022, after having signed a two-year contract.[8] However, in June, a few days after Heracles were relegated for the first time in 17 years,[9] Vicens mutually parted ways with the Dutch club, choosing to stay on at Manchester City instead.[10]”

Seconded! I’ve always wondered what happened there.

Maybe you’re a robot then.

Based entirely off that interview I have really high hopes for him. I think he’s going to smash this league actually.

Damn! Best hope KWP miraculously stays.

What was the reason for his delayed start with us when he joined?

Agreed! But aren’t Che and Arma proven goalscorers at this level too?

When Jack Cork chose us as a newly promoted side to the Championship I believed we would go up. My memory is that we weren’t favorites for automatic promotion and he was also approached by clubs expected to do better than us, but it was so long ago I could be talking nonsense.

I always took it to be Romeo Dunn, he of So Solid Crew fame. Not so much one for the kids and a pretty obscure bit of rhyming slang even for those who remember the group. Maybe I’m wrong though!

Agreed! I always thought we invented the term soccer (association football) to distinguish it from rugger (rugby football). Quite why we then got annoyed at the rest of the world adopting it I’ve never understood.
