teamsaint Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 he has been around some of this week. Must be a decent bet for new manager. (Would be a good appointment IMO)
thorpie the sinner Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 well there is a f c u k off bigg yacht in port today...! Has dowie got a big yacht then \\:D/
thorpie the sinner Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Dover or Penzance? ah, he could be in Devon to discuss taking over from Tisdale!!!!
NickG Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 is his rack record that good how many racks has he handled?
SFC Forever Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Who ever we get will we be able to forget our differences and get behind the club?
Doctoroncall Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Who ever we get will we be able to forget our differences and get behind the club? lol. There will be new things to squabble about.
Leslie Charteris Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 MLT, KK and Dowie... chairman, DoF and head coach. That would just make my day. :-)
Saint in Paradise Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 how many racks has he handled? More than Master B I bet :D:D
Big_Bald_Si Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Please, please, do NOT let Iain Dowie become our new manager.
OldNick Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Please, please, do NOT let Iain Dowie become our new manager. I agree wholeheartedly +1
CWD Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 I agree wholeheartedly +1 and me +2 Dowie is NOT good enough to fight against -10 in league 1. i really hope this doesnt happen
itchen Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Dear God. We don't even know for sure we'll have a club to support next season (though it's looking more likely). We don't know who the new owner will be or what our resources will be. And we have no real information about who the manager might be. Yet we are already saying who it shouldn't be. Unbelievable.
eharty9 Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 yesterday every1 wants keegan , now people want dowie!! then tisdale! made ya mind up!
mdearlove Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 so we could see Tim Flowers back too then as he seems to follow Dowie around as his assistant
NickG Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Dowie has a better track record than our last 5 appointees
OldNick Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Dear God. We don't even know for sure we'll have a club to support next season (though it's looking more likely). We don't know who the new owner will be or what our resources will be. And we have no real information about who the manager might be. Yet we are already saying who it shouldn't be. Unbelievable. this site is for debate. I of course worry if the club is safe, but there is little I can do about it, but would like to be able to share my opinion on certain names put up who may be in the frame if the club is saved. Dowie is not for me and Newcastle got no better with his coaching
NickG Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 and we are -10 in a lower division! -less attractive allegedly!
brightspark Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Well Dowie has done some work for Sky recently (I think), the odd bit of commentary here and there. Maybe his soft side for Saints and a couple of meetings with MLT at Sky is enough for Le Tiss to consider giving him the job? Who knows. TBH, I can think of better managers to have than Dowie, but we have certainly had worse.
northam soul Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Surely Dowie is still waiting on being given the Newcastle job full time as Shearers no2. I would doubt he would come here with that still ongoing.I have to say i am now totally underwhelmed after yesterdays excitement.
Block 5 Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Please, please, do NOT let Iain Dowie become our new manager. What he said.
Burger Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Very happy if it was Dowie....although prefer Strachan....and have no doubts that MLT will make the choice he thinks is best for Saints....that is good enough for me
crouchi Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Dowie fits most of the requirements, was doing well at Palace before his relationship with Jordan deteriorated, good battler, lilkely to produce a fit team with limited resources
Scummer Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Don't really see what people have against Dowie. Certain folks could do with a reality check, we start this season ten points adrift in division 3. I could probably only name a couple of managers in this division.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 He will attract more ladies to SMS, that is for sure
Bailey Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Had you asked me prior to the Keegan story broke, I would have been more than happy with Dowie, but after yesterday's events anyone but him (or Strachan) is going to be a tad disappointing. Still, I'm just grateful that we still have a club and I'll support whoever is given the job.
alpine_saint Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Dowie as manager and possibly Keegan as DoF would do me fine...
alpine_saint Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 He will attract more ladies to SMS, that is for sure I thought that was Bungle.
TheMidfieldGeneral Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Ian Dowie with Peter Beardsley on his shoulders
docker-p Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 I don't know why everyone is so anti Dowie. Obviously he wouldn't be my first choice, but we are where we are, and Dowie has had some successes as a manager, a few failures too granted, but I can think of a lot worse.
Foxstone Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Dowie as manager and possibly Keegan as DoF would do me fine... Would do me more than fine actually !
SaintRobbie Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Dowie, Keegan, Shearer, Ince, Tisdale.... who cares. All are quality. Wotte is gone, Lowe is gone, MLT is about to be in with one of them. Pinnacle are about to own Southampton Football Club. Southampton Football Club has returned from suspended animation... Southampton Leisure Holdings plc FC is dead.
miserableoldgit Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Please, please, do NOT let Iain Dowie become our new manager. I wonder how many people said the same thing when WGS join us (well, not about Iain Dowie obviously!). Can we assume that MLT will do what he thinks is best for the club, or are we starting to doubt him before anything is even officially announced?
Pilchards Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 I wonder how many people said the same thing when WGS join us (well, not about Iain Dowie obviously!). Can we assume that MLT will do what he thinks is best for the club, or are we starting to doubt him before anything is even officially announced? We should think ourselves lucky that we are perhaps getting a higher profile manager being in this division with a -10 start. Under Lowe I reckon we would end up with the AFC Totton manager as that would be cheap.
Badger Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Would prefer Tisdale to Dowie frankly.But Dowie is a better option than Ince.So on that basis I'm fairly indifferent to his possible appointment.
Chez Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Dowie, Keegan, Shearer, Ince, Tisdale.... who cares. All are quality. Wotte is gone, Lowe is gone, MLT is about to be in with one of them. Pinnacle are about to own Southampton Football Club. Southampton Football Club has returned from suspended animation... Southampton Leisure Holdings plc FC is dead. on our way on our way, on our way, on our way I don't care where you come from I don't care where you come from all i know is we are on our way
silversaint Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Regardless of who is appointed lets get behind them FFS. COYR.
alpine_saint Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 I want the club to go back to play-for-the-badge, spirited, blood-and-thunder, Ghengis Kahn-like performances. The time for smart-arse tactics and pretty tippy-tappyness is over. Dowie and Keegan can deliver that
Barry the Badger Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 I don't know why everyone is so anti Dowie. Obviously he wouldn't be my first choice, but we are where we are, and Dowie has had some successes as a manager, a few failures too granted, but I can think of a lot worse. Absolutely, yesterday was pretty exciting but we do need to take a reality check here. Most clubs in L1 would love to have Dowie IMO. He does have a mixed record but has been quite unlucky to be sacked at a few clubs where I thought he was doing ok.
Larrylove Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Dowie has been my first choice all along,build from the bottom and see where we are after 3 years,also as famously pointed out on fantasy football years ago,the son of Ian Turner!!
Deano6 Posted 19 June, 2009 Posted 19 June, 2009 Ian Dowie with Peter Beardsley on his shoulders Nice tackle!
