tpbury Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 If you saw someone wasted 30m of your fathers legacy on sh*t, would you give them the same again to waste ? So, both Osvaldo and Ramirez are sh*t - really? Objectively? In the round? Financially? Really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Cortese's departure is confirmed, Saints boss Mauricio Pochettino's future could be in serious doubt. Sources have however told us Cortese is not in discussion with another club in Italy, despite several media reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martel Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 ********. That'll be MP gone as well then. On top of that how may transfer requests could be handed in? Not good, in fact very bad day for Saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintRichmond Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 Quite - I can't think of any time in English football when the chairman leaving a club prompted a mass exodus (manager, practically every player, tea lady etc etc) as envisaged by some on here. Indeed, at a lot of Premier League clubs I struggle to think who the chairman (or CEO if you prefer) actually is - it's usually a relatively low profile position. Remember, we're not talking about the owner here. Exactly, we are not talking about the owner. We are talking about a VERY unique individual NICOLA CORTESE To simply say "he would be missed" is the biggest understatement in the world IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smirking_Saint Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 Hmm Whilst Im sure we will come out of it and survive Id say the future could be very different for us. Cortese, as pig ignorant as he is seems to be the lynchpin of our journey and future.

Saint_clark Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 :lol: :lol: :lol: Seriously Embarrassing isn't it. Yes it'd be a big loss, and yes there's a chance a couple of people will be unsure about their future. But the core of the club is still the same. No reason the manager and players can't continue their ambitions without Cortese. I'm gonna stick my neck out and say that I don't think Cortese will leave.

JoeShmoe Posted 15 January, 2014 Share Posted 15 January, 2014 Why? KL will find another suit to free spend her money.... Give any Chairman a bottomless pit of cash and he will make changes and be deemed a success - ask him to work within a budget and you will get to see how "successful" they really are. Nicola has proved he can be a success when the going is good (who couldn’t!) he has also shown me that he has no stomach for the fight and clearly doesn’t rise to a challenge.
