SFC is Run Like a 5* Boutique Hotel

[St Jim]

Not quite, the facts are :-

When Markus passed away, it was very early into HIS Five year “project”

Yes, Katharina took over, and , to her credit, she “honoured” her Father's “project”, which included the training ground. That was all Markus's plans, Not Katharina's,

When that 5 year “project” was over (earlier this year), Katharina then implemented Her own “project”

That was when the proverbial excretia hit the fan, because her vision of the future of SFC was way below what Markus's was.

First one to take the hit was Cortese, because he realised SFC has/had reached it's peak under the Leibherrs. One of his very telling comments was that you don't progress by selling off your best players. Surely no one can still deny we are doing exactly that ?

It was Katharinas “new” vision that has led Cortese, Pochettino and most of our Star players to jump ship.

OK, they are leaving to better themselves, but that is simply because they no longer think they can better themselves at SFC

How many on here think that we would be in this mess if Marcus, Cortese and Pochettino were still here ??

 

Personally I think we would eventually come to pretty much the same place but it would have happened in a different order. Bigger clubs were already circling and I think that we still would have sold at the right prices which I think would have prompted MoPo to assess his options. We can't keep players if clubs like Liverpool and ManUre come in form them, regardless of who is at the helm (unless we an owner willing to blow 100+m every year and willing to pay massive wages).

The only thing really embarrassing is some of the bed - wetting posts on here.

 

Some people really need to face reality as to where we sit in the grand scheme of the footballing world. We are the victims of our own success and this was always going to happen if we didn't make it into Europe.

 

In reality we received 30m for a 19 year old who wasn't the best LB in the league, 25m for a player who has really only had one very good season in the top flight, 4m for a player who although played very well in parts in reality was at times starting to show his age and only really has one (maybe 2 if lucky) good year in him, about to receive 20m for a player we signed just 12 months previously for 8m. Each of these players signing for arguably the biggest 2 clubs in the league for a lot higher wages.

 

To me that is bloody good business as long as we replace well and I think we've made a good start with Tadic and Pelle.

Ranting it over and over again will never make it true.

You consistently leave out the part where Markus' plan was for Saints to be an established, SELF SUSTAINING, Premier League team. SELF SUSTAINING as in not reliant on the largesse of him or his daughter.

Do you leave this out because it doesn't suit your argument?

Or because you are

If the answer to either of these questions is yes, then please, in the name of all that is holy, cease your relentless, repetitive dullard's whining.

The problem is Nic promised these boys, and MP, the moon on the stick. He then took the training ground spend to £38m and had to leave. MP then walked and the rest is history.

 

Nic created a problem that the current regime are having to manage. This is a transitionay period which we'll get through.

 

You're wasting your time fella, the won't have it. Cortese could do no wrong, the players were here because they loved him and would never have left if he'd have stayed. It's far more convenient to blame everything on the people who inherited the situation than the one who caused it, as that would mean a lot of back tracking and admitting they were wrong by the cortese junkies

Too true Del. Crazy that so many people are willing to disregard the truth to support their own assumptions.

Page after page of the same stuff. Every thread I read is now identical, they are all full of the 'board sensible / board c****' argument, initially perpetuated by a few key zealots, but now widespread.

Is this the saintsweb schism?

Probably like pretending your someone completely different despite being proven on a forum you mean ?

 

A couple of things:

 

1. If you want to be taken seriously then learn to spell and use grammar correctly. I instantly dismiss those who can't and file them under 'retards', so it is worth your while.

2. It has not been proven that I am Goatboy.

I really can't be arsed to answer any of the various points of supposition you make, because that it really what it all is. Supposition. Not facts. If you understand them to be facts, then kindly provide us with the evidence.

 

Otherwise, your post is just the gospel according to Saint Richmond.
