I am trustworthy by the way. I just needed the account to save for my dog's education.

I have an account in Switzerland in the name of my dog. I don't mind if you guys want to just rest any savings you have in there.

This is filler, yes? Paste-a-piece? Not saying it's right or wrong, but lacking in any real insight. I feel like I've just washed down a slice of plain white bread with luke warm water.

It might be worthwhile adding something to count the number of comments on articles. Allied to a topic, this could give a good indication of what people comment on and how fervently - useful information I'd imagine.

Sepp saying that to release the full report would breach "state law"...omitting to outline exactly what law would be breached.

"Monday 7 February 2011" Bit slow off the mark aren't you? Any update on the exodus of employment and tax receipts this change no doubt triggered?

It would be a very low scoring game, maybe 1 - 0 win to Koeman as I think Poch's Saints would struggle to create something to get past a very well organised defence. "What they don't want to do now is..."

Like McDonald did you mean?

Speak for yourself!

I don't think convicted rapists should be permitted to return to professional football in any guise. It's a privilege, not a right. On a related point, however, in this particular case, I'm not convinced by the case for prosecution. But that isn't really OP's question. For good or ill Ched is a convicted rapist. The FA shouldn't act as judge on any perceived failings of the judicial system and should accept the conviction as a bar on any return for Ched.

Very odd though. In any other business he would have clauses in his contract stating that he can't work for a direct rival in this type of role.

The recruitment team is not one man. If he feels he's single-handedly capable of turning them around then replace and evolve.

If Athletico can get out of the agreed sale price by paying £1.5m then they will. Clubs will be clamoring for him. Athletico will no doubt get more than the agreed price plus £1.5m so it would be financially very stupid to agree to sell to Saints.

"I need to find any excuse I can to explain how p*ss poor we are...I'll blame the guy with a funny accent" He's just trying to buy time for the manager to settle (something he sorely needs, but probably won't get)...not literally misunderstanding Pochettino.

Starting to feel like a glory hunter. Great assist from pelle for the first goal, holding the ball up then laying off. Great ball for the second. Both excellently taken. Big 6 pointer against City in a couple of weeks.

I like that a lot. Very good read.

Pretty false reasoning there, no? Just because someone else could have bought the club, the person that did can't be credited with saving the club? Without action, the club would have folded. Therefore whoever takes that action must be credited with saving the club. Or, by your reasoning, if two people are standing by a pool where someone is drowning, no matter who jumps in to help, neither will have technically saved them because the other one could have.

Confidence is the habitual voyeur of what is known as... You put the song in my head so now I'm going to inflict it on others.

Saved Southampton Football Club and blessed it with his vision: (too shiny to see this?) quality football, a respectful environment and a sustainable future. Thank you Markus. This is your legacy.

Perfect. Well, it's a fact.

Southampton v Leicester 2-1 Villa v Southampton 0-1 Southampton v Man City 1-2 Arsenal v Southampton 2-0 Southampton v Man U 2-0 Burnley v Southampton 0-1 Southampton v Everton 2-2 Crystal Palace v Southampton 0-2 15pts from the games, total 37pts, average just a hair over 2pts per game for the season...would be 5th in last year's table.

Very good. "I owe everything to Southampton"... Ah Rickie. Hope for him that he doesn't regret the decision.
