CB Fry Posted 5 September, 2010 Share Posted 5 September, 2010 What is the point of posts that say "I know but I'm not telling"? If you know and you've been asked to keep quiet why don't you just do that? It's very irritating. BTW, I know but I'm not telling. You'll all be saying I'm right come wednesday.

benjii Posted 5 September, 2010 Share Posted 5 September, 2010 Why would repeating a rumour derail the appointment of a manager? This is a forum for discussing rumour and opinions - if you claim to know just post it All this "I know but can't say" stuff is ****** - if you can't say then say nothing at all. TBF, I don't know anything. Other than what's in the PMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Mockles Posted 5 September, 2010 Share Posted 5 September, 2010 Have to say, I'm not sure how good Martin O'Neil would be, there were stories of player unrest at Aston Villa and after he left wasn't there stories that the players all cheered. Probably cos O Neil is strict, disciplined & pulls no punches. I like Martin O Neil a lot. Very clever bloke. Modern day footballers didn't like it cos they probably had to work a little bit harder than Anthony Mc Numpty at Club X up the road for the thousands/wk pay cheque. Or the brutal truth was too much for some of their fragile football egos after being told they were the best in their team throughout their childhood! Managering top level clubs is a tough, tough, highly pressured job. O Neil did a fine job at Villa & deserves credit. It's all too easy to criticise but he is a class above IMHO. Sometimes, the face just doesn't, whether with the fans but more importantly , with the chairman. Being Saints fans, we should know that better than most!!

Saint Billy Posted 5 September, 2010 Share Posted 5 September, 2010 This potential manager must have the wow factor as all those ITK are creaming themselves. With that in mind it has to be someone outrageous like: Keegan and Shearer dream machine David Beckham Player manager Maradona Eric Cantona Keegan and LeTissier dream machine The Pope George Bush junior Eddie The Eagle Have I nailed it?

Block 5 Posted 5 September, 2010 Share Posted 5 September, 2010 It is a frustrating time for all of us, I am sure. We will all find out very soon. I know how it feels guys - utterly frustrating, but hang in there and you won't be disappointed. You're having a field day on the main forum aren't you. But I miss you over in the arts forum; I hope you will come back into the fold soon once the new manager has been appointed. PS> Thanks for the PM. Wow!

ottery st mary Posted 5 September, 2010 Share Posted 5 September, 2010 I vote for Duncan Holley....... A lot of history with this man.. A plane talking kind of guy who knows when to wing it.. Will operate at full throttle even though he has his head in the clouds at times. Knowledgeable...allegedly? Particularly all around Europe.. Very good looking.....So derry tells me...Having met him I do not believe a word derry says.. Good strike rate in his time.... Has been able to listen and work with some good CEOs in his day....Well most were good to FF.. Downside.. This will never get off the ground but the players would have extraordinary high wages and would have world class perks and only train when they wanted to.. FF for boss.. WIF Duncs..

David Strover Posted 5 September, 2010 Share Posted 5 September, 2010 Perhaps all the In The Knowers could just say when 'Super Manager' is going to be appointed so that stop my OCD of going between here and the OS and also save me the trouble of flicking through pages and pages and pages of posts that actually give me no clue. Saints are **** and my Sunday morning team lost 2-1 to a last seconds goal to our most bitter rivals and all that after pummelling for most of the game and missing chance after chance....sound familiar? I could do with some 'football' cheering up. Swindon being bottom of the table kept a lot of stick away from me this morning although I, personally, was still held accountable for the 'no-programmes' on Tuesday night, the sacking of Alan Pardew and Saints defence - oh and the Swindon supporters all say it is Alan Shearer who is going to be the next Saints manager. They know as much as I do so it is as accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
