Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 In response to the OP, it doesn't smack of Sturrock to me. It smacks of the opportunity to bond with the team and to try to build up the team bond in new climes. Personally think this is an excellent idea.
Pugwash Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 So do we know if its the old olympic stadium (bit of a **** ground and not used since 2009 for football) or Espanyol's training facility?
Saint86 Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 After taking charge tonight will be to take the team to Barcelona for a few days team building and training. Good thing or bad thing saintsweb? Is he missing home already? Can he handle the attention on him at the moment? Does this have echoes of Sturrock and the constant bleating about how they did things at his old club which annoyed the players. Or is it a great idea to get the team away for a bit, get to know the players and have a few says training in a decent climate? Will you believe this? Will franks cousin demand evidence of this? Over to the mongboard to discuss...... Considering home is Argentina (and not the Falklands), and that he has played the top level in France... I doubt he is homesick. He probably just doesn't like the snow!
Frank's cousin Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 What a strange post. Really - you know you love them fawning over you as their personal Mongking
Frank's cousin Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Find it strange this is even an issue - If anyone thinks that there would NOT be players confused or angered by Adkins departure then their are naive - THAT is NORMAL and to be expected - as is the new boss RECOGNISING this as a potential issue, taking the team away out of the spotlight and using the time to get to know them... its a non-story really as its nothing out of the ordinary.
hypochondriac Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 What a strange post. Precisely. I've probably replied to about two of your posts in the last year. Weird poster is Frank.
Turkish Posted 21 January, 2013 Author Posted 21 January, 2013 Really - you know you love them fawning over you as their personal Mongking You're the one who started fantasising about what is in my bottom Frank. All that wine has skewed your brain.
hypochondriac Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 You're the one who started fantasising about what is in my bottom Frank. All that wine has skewed your brain. Well I laughed. Whoops I have responded to one of your posts again. Apologies mongking.
Turkish Posted 21 January, 2013 Author Posted 21 January, 2013 Well I laughed. Whoops I have responded to one of your posts again. Apologies mongking. That's doubled your reply count just in one day. Proof that you are a very real part of Franks fantasies.
Whitey Grandad Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 The weather's better than her but not fantastic. Mostly sunny with highs around 10 degrees.
Window Cleaner Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 The weather's better than her but not fantastic. Mostly sunny with highs around 10 degrees. It was 13°C in Montpellier just now, Barcelona isn't that far away, bit further west, bit further south.
Frank's cousin Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 That's doubled your reply count just in one day. Proof that you are a very real part of Franks fantasies. Trust me boys, you dont form part of any fantasy of mine
Turkish Posted 21 January, 2013 Author Posted 21 January, 2013 Trust me boys' date=' you dont form part of any fantasy of mine[/quote'] Well you seem to have a very active imagination as to what goes on inside me bottom Frank. It's very strange.
Professor Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 good move, from what I have heard he needs every opportunity to bond with them Dear Moderator Mike, thats a very negative remark which needs to be validated in case its just hearsay by a pro-Adkins source who simply wants to undermine our new manager. Other reports say that Pochittino got on well with the players at the first training session and in the long run that is the interests of Southampton FC and the future of the club. Today and tomorrow matter whereas NA, having been thanked for the achievements whilst he was here, is now history. There may well have been a trip away arranged for this week after we lost in the cup and maybe if the club had already taken the decision to replace NA with MP, they may have fixed it for Spain but it would have made sense not to announce it until after the managerial change had taken place. If it is true that our next league opponents, Man U, are doing the same by going to Qatar we will have shown our players that we value them as much as Man U value theirs and that we are behaving like a Premier Club. I'm just not sure its right to credit Pochettino with the decision to take the squad away but he may have played a part in deciding the destination.
shurlock Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Didn't Pards take the squad away to Spain in Jan 2010?
musesaint Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 In answer to the thread - beat Everton and burn the white hankies!
hasper57saint Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Just getting my own back Frank. Enhance is spelt with a 'c' NOT an 's'. No need to apologise though!
Frank's cousin Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Just getting my own back Frank. Enhance is spelt with a 'c' NOT an 's'. No need to apologise though! .....
Matty's Caddy Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 A touch off topic but if we come from behind tonight we could run with this.. Ooooooo the Pochettino Oooooo the Pochettino, You put a Striker on You take a Defender off We pass it from the back and we pass it all about You do the Pochettino and we turn it around That's what he's all about...hey! oooooooo the Pochettino Made me laugh that did
Saint Fan CaM Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Yeah, this is terrible news...can't believe they're doing this...it's got to be a joke...it's got to be bad for the team...it's got to be bad for everyone... FFS, give a ******* rest Turkish.
ART Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Smacks of Hoddle and Stuart Gray. In those days the 7 day break was an annual break but in a warmer climate such as La Manga. It's freezing in Barcelona and pouring with rain for the next 10 days.
Ohio Saint Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Didn't Adkins alude to the players going away for a few days in the sun after we got knocked out of the FA Cup against Chelsea? Pretty sure he did. Weird coincidence it is Barcelona though. This is one of the sad things about being left out of the loop before getting fired. NA will now be smacking his forehead. "Of course! Barce-bloody-ona! No wonder Nicola insisted on booking that trip to Spain instead of my Bognor Regis suggestion!" DOH!!! I'm making light of it, but I'm still hurting for NA.
de-fence Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Tsk. They speak Catalonian in Barcelona you heathen. The language is called Catalan, treacle
Turkish Posted 21 January, 2013 Author Posted 21 January, 2013 Yeah, this is terrible news...can't believe they're doing this...it's got to be a joke...it's got to be bad for the team...it's got to be bad for everyone... FFS, give a ******* rest Turkish. Did I say it was bad then?
