I have heard a rumour that we have already appointed Claudio Foscarini, manager of some serie B team and the deal also involves the signing of one of their strikers Matteo Ardemagni.

 

 

I don't know if you're on a windup but this sounds really quite plausible... :-o

Surprised no one saw fit to post that earlier.

 

Unless they did and I missed it as I was away.Perhaps someone can post me a link to the spotting of MON after the Orient game if posted previously.

 

Nobody mentioned it previously because it's bull****. There's no way a high-profile name like that would be able to attend a football stadium on a matchday without being seen by a lot of people. Not that I wouldn't mind him coming here though! If it's not him or Stuart Pearce I'll be disappointed.

Would be quite funny if we nicked Gus Poyet from Brighton!

 

That would be funny. But highly unlikely as he has publicly stated he is staying for 3 years.

Are you calling me a liar as well?

 

Are you sure you weren't thinking of the manager Daniele Arrigoni from Sassuolo Calcio and their striker Antimo Iunco?

Fellas, I have just received a call from Cortese. I said I would only take the job if he could get a wi-fi connection down to the dugout so I could have SaintsWeb Forum available to help with tactics. He's going to look into it for me. I'll get back to y'all but if I do take the job then I will expect only sensible suggestions like putting Kelvin up front and Rickie in goal.

Hoddle or Keegan would be good - but if it's like any of our signings then we won't work it out until it's announced!

 

Steve McClaren, Martin Jol, or Christian Gross ?

 

Keegan would resign before his first game!

Psycho was definitely at the Bolton game, not that it means he's going to be the next manager of course

Isn't he still in charge of the England U21s? Was probably just watching some of the talent.

Mowbray is the best realistic option I've heard... Purely on his track record with promotions AND his style play.

 

If this "will eventually be known as the southampton style" stuff is true, then there isn't a chance we'll get there with 90% of the names mentioned.

......................Phil Brown............................

 

They would make a fortune out of me in the concourse. There is no way I would be able to go up to my seat and watch all the useless lumps of overpaid Carp he would bring in.

Mental IMO.

Yep, just mental!

If it's going to be an Italian, Bologna sacked their coach Franco Colomba a few days ago due to new owners wanting their own man. He kept them in Serie A last year and has managed a fair few Serie A & B clubs.

 

Surprised no one's mentioned Alan Irvine, doing well with Wednesday, familiar with the Championship, and as David Moyes' former assistant certainly knows the Premier League too. Big difference between us and Wednesday is that they are skint and will probably be in administration within a year. My only concern is that he though Ostemoboor was good enough to sign... Certainly better than Phil Brown or Kevin Blackwell.

 

However, I have a feeling it will be Zola. He did well enough with West Ham in their first season, particularly as he was saddled with all the duds Curbishley had brought in (Kieron Dyer etc....).

Cortese could save money on the electric at half time in the dressing room with Phil Brown in charge.

AP now come in at 20/1 for villa job!

 

MO`N now 5/1 for saints job!

 

So hope it's Martin O'Neil, but he's not a great bet at 5/1

 

Until he formally rules himself out though, I'm holding out hope, however fantastical it seems.

 

I think it's going to be Poyet or Zola...or some continental manager I've never heard of...

Can't get excited about Mowbray, don't know why, may be because he is miserable.

 

Would be happy with Phil Brown or Chris Coleman myself. O'neill would be amazing but won't happen.

Eddie Howe, Sean O'Driscoll, Lee Clarke, Nigel Adkins, Danny Wilson would all do a good job this year but I think Cortese is now looking for the manager for the rest of the five year plan so this may take a little while yet.

Are you mad ? Hoddle should be one of the favourites. Clearly you are having a bad day !

I've just seen Sir Bobby Robson in West Quay!

 

I've just been to West Quay and you're lying. Although I did get Malcolm Allison to sign my Krispy Kreme hat in the podium car park. Nice Roller.

It will be interesting to see if NC will get someone in for the long term or someone purely to just get us promoted this season. Either way I can't it being o'Neil, hoddle, sven etc....

 

Personally It may be a short term placement someone who has been successful at this level perhaps someone like Paul Jewell.

I have to say I'm getting the return of the feelings I had during the Lowe era already. I have visions of an appointment of a foriegn manager who has no experience of english league football and an idealistic unrealistic approach. Jan Poortvliet anyone?
Except he does... :)

O'Neill would be a fantastic appointment obviously but I can't see it really happening. As far as I'm concerned there's only one person Cortese should be on the phone to now and that's Tommy Widdrington. The only man who would make up for the disappointment of losing Pardew and I know I'm not alone on this.
