saintscottofthenortham Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Journo > Adkins: "Will we be seeing you at Southampton?" Adkins > Journo: "Next Question." BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH OK OK OK IM ON I PHONE AND DIDNT SEE IT.
trousers Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Heard some info today and If you want to hear it then PM thorpie the sinner as I'm busy tonight. I can trust you lot to keep it off the main board. nite :-) Que?
manji Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Lol, FF has more contacts, sources and credibility than you xousl ever imagine! He might know a few but he is still totally unreliable. Anything he does hear is twisted to suit he own anti-Cortese agenda. FF and quite a few others need to get over the fact that MLT and his Pinnacle Portakabin Cowboys failed. Get over it. No jobs for the boys,no fansontheboard , no parochial under-achieving local club they can worm thier way into.......
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Thorpie the Sinner - what info?
SparkySaint Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Not wishing to state the obvious just because Adkins is great at S****horpe it does not necessarily follow he'll be fantastic at Southampton likewise one of so called 'crap' managers who are supposedly in the frame could have been dreadful in their last two jobs and be absolutely fantastic here. For goodness sake anyone who has followed professional football for at least three or four years should be able to see this. Phil Brown or Paul Hart could be great here but personally I'd like it to be Nigel Adkins

Saint Billy Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Probably barking up the wrong tree, but I'm watching the England game and cannot see Stuart Pearce on the England. Anyone seen him?
manji Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 But he did predict Pardew's sacking. no he didnt.It was fairly common knowledge that Pardew would go if he didnt hit certain targets but no-one saw Pardew getting sacked this week.
manji Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Nutshell. I never know if you are serious or not
latter day saint Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Probably barking up the wrong tree, but I'm watching the England game and cannot see Stuart Pearce on the England. Anyone seen him? he is with the u21's, who beat Portugal 1-0
CB Fry Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 no he didnt.It was fairly common knowledge that Pardew would go if he didnt hit certain targets but no-one saw Pardew getting sacked this week. Yes he did - FF said Pardew would get sacked before Christmas regardless of results, he got slated for it, and Pardew got sacked two days after a thumping 4-0 victory. If it was "common knowledge" FF wouldn't have got the slating he got when he passed on his info.
Saint Billy Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 he is with the u21's, who beat Portugal 1-0 Yeh, heard it in the second half. Doh!
Draino76 Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 I never know if you are serious or not Nutshell.
Saint_clark Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Alan Pardew was spotted in a property showroom the other day, blatantly buying a house down here to take the job again.
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 I hear it's someone with a cap. Tony Pulis?! Was linked before and fits with the (somewhat bizarre) rumour of applications from Premier League managers. He also seems to be the only person who seems to be able to move his son on from a club... EDIT - also fits with the poster who speculated the chosen one had a 5 letter name.
Saint Billy Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Forget who you want as manager for a minute. Who do you see in your (realistic) minds eye stood there in the dug out? For some reason I cannot imagine any of the names being mentioned managing saints. I've tried and it just aint happening.

Personally I wouldn't have pictured Alan Pardew on the touchline before it actually was announced.
pele Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Cappello's team has just won 4-0 could he be on his way??
Deppo Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 I never know if you are serious or not I treat this forum with the seriousness it deserves at all times.
St Landrew Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 I treat this forum with the seriousness it deserves at all times. That's right Deppo, keep 'em guessing.
Saint Billy Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Who can you picture then? Personally I wouldn't have pictured Alan Pardew on the touchline before it actually was announced. NC confuses me. He demands instant success and wants to do it in style the Southampton Way. To me this can only be acheived by selecting a manager with a proven track record in producing results and in a certain style. The likes of Howe and Adkins etc, although doing very well atm and producing the style of football that presumerably NC wants, these guys are relatively inexperience with no top flight credentials. Although it might just work if one of these guys were selected, it would be a huge gamble and one that I cannot imagine NC taking. I cannot imagine NC being tempted by the likes of Brown, Dowie etc, they for me do not fit NC's criteria. That is why I am struggling envisaging the next manager.
Saint Charlie Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Agent I follow on twitter said just now: 'Saints fans you will have a new manager by midweek. Believe in Cortese, I like him. He is a very clever man and club will be more positive now.'
Victor Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Who let this Beppo thing in? It's like a nasty fly that buzzes around and ****s on everything. Can't someone open a window and let the bloody thing out!
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Agent I follow on twitter said just now: 'Saints fans you will have a new manager by midweek. Believe in Cortese, I like him. He is a very clever man and club will be more positive now.' Do you have a link to his page please?
saintscottofthenortham Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Do you have a link to his page please? +1...
Saint Charlie Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 http://www.twitter.com/footballagent46 He has just started to write a column in the Mirror. I think he has a few SFC players as clients.
Saint Garrett Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Managers agent drumming up business ?
31cc Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 It's Pulis... He obviously wants to manage us, thats why Stoke consists almost entirely of ex-Saints. His son has been fermenting trouble to get AP sacked.. Dad makes his move!
Smirking_Saint Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Managers agent drumming up business ? How is he drumming up business ? If he was doing that surely he would be saing xxxxx is available, not the job is filled ?
Badger Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Good reads on: Adkins :http://soccerlens.com/nigel-adkins-profile/6223/ Mowbray :http://soccerlens.com/tony-mowbray-destined-for-greatness/5782/
Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 http://www.twitter.com/footballagent46 He has just started to write a column in the Mirror. I think he has a few SFC players as clients. How can he write a column when he can't even write good English?
Saint Charlie Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 How can he write a column when he can't even write good English? Like all sports columns, he tells a journo over the phone and they type it up!

Pat from Poole Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 no he didnt.It was fairly common knowledge that Pardew would go if he didnt hit certain targets but no-one saw Pardew getting sacked this week. Bore off, you lying turd.
SaintNeil90 Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 http://www.s****horpe.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=212012 doesnt work
RonManager Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 doesnt work It's the freaking swear filter!!! You'll have to type in the c u n t bit where the asterisks are.
Smirking_Saint Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 For some reason i have a real feeling it will be Eddie Howe. And i am actually quite excited..... strange.
St_Tel49 Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 The problem there is, I've seen comments saying if we believe ML completely wanted Pardew to stay then we need help, and this one saying if we believe ML wanted to sack him, we need help. What should I believe in order to avoid professional help? I often think that coming on this forum is justification enough for seeking professional help
St_Tel49 Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 If we do take him on, I would not be excited at all. S****horpe! come on please get us someone who trya to play football the right way...... hooooofffff!!! You obviously haven't watched S****horpe play,
SaintBobby Posted 3 September, 2010 Posted 3 September, 2010 Adkins would be an excellent appointment. Not a huge name, but a really exciting prospect. Why on Earth do people think he plays hoof ball? He's made the Iron a decent footballing team.
