Suhari Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Assuming he signed over the weekend the news could be being kept back to help placate news of players leaving....
thorpie the sinner Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Jeremy Wilson of Telegraph tweeted we weren't even having talks with Poch today! If he has already signed contract, that would explain why!
SuperSAINT Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Jeremy Wilson of Telegraph tweeted we weren't even having talks with Poch today! If he has already signed contract, that would explain why! Jeremy Wilson @JWTelegraph Lambert, Lallana and Shaw all in Eng squad. #saintsfc considering offers for Shaw and Lallana. No talks planned today with Pochettino
St Chalet Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 I heard positive news about Poch today. Friend of a friend stuff, but positive none the less and contradicts Jermemy Wilson.
CB Saint Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Christ - please for the love god resolve the situation one way or another asap - A summer of this will be a nightmare
badgerx16 Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Losing Luke so young would send out a very bad signal for all future good academy prospects. What ? Play for us for 18 months and then get a mega-move to one of the biggest clubs in the World.
JxgrSaint Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 What ? Play for us for 18 months and then get a mega-move to one of the biggest clubs in the World. .... or Manchester United
Viking Warrior Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 I hear MP left SMS and is on his way to to do his weekly shopping at Sainsbury's
ecuk268 Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 I hear MP left SMS and is on his way to to do his weekly shopping at Sainsbury's Surely, if he'd signed a contract extension, he'd be going to Waitrose or even M&S.
Viking Warrior Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 ecuk I thought about those 2 but couldnt remember if there was a waitrose where he lives.
Suhari Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 ecuk I thought about those 2 but couldnt remember if there was a waitrose where he lives. Presumably given our lack of finances it'll be Lidl.

CB Saint Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 What have they done with the turf - I could have done with a few rolls of that
Badger Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 What have they done with the turf - I could have done with a few rolls of that And me. Had I known they were doing that I'd have reversed the car round after the match yesterday, put the rear seats down and brought some back. Could have had my own piece of St Mary's in Gloucestershire.
Baird of the land Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 What ? Play for us for 18 months and then get a mega-move to one of the biggest clubs in the World. I'd argue that it is important to retain them for a few years so we actually get to see the benefit of all the work we've put into developing them and blooding them. I already see a few moaning about giving the likes of Gallagher game time.
Viking Warrior Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 what have they done with our turf mum what have they donw with our turf mum well they rolled up and sold to the skates down the road son thats what theyve done to our turf son
Smirking_Saint Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 If I were MP I'd stay if players were staying and I could spend another £25m or so to improve this squad. If Shaw and/or Lallana left and I had an offer from Spurs I'd be off though. I agree
Toon Saint Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 (edited) Strange that there has been no report on the OS about the England World Cup call-ups. Something else in the pipeline? Edited 12 May, 2014 by Toon Saint
Saint-Armstrong Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Strange that there has been no report on the OS about the England World Cup call-ups. Something else in the pipeline? Apart from this report, eh? http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/12052014-england-world-cup-squad-1547656.aspx
sydneysaint17 Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 If MP signs up I think we can all relax a bit. It doesn't guarantee Shaw and Lallana's future but it does indicate that he is happy with a plan to push on up the league. We may still see those two go, but if they do AND MP stays I would expect some quality replacements/signings that would improve the squad.
sydneysaint17 Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 And I agree, surprised at how little coverage the WC call ups has got on the site - would expect interviews with players etc. Could well be working on something else
Toon Saint Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Apart from this report, eh? http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/12052014-england-world-cup-squad-1547656.aspx Yeah, sorry noticed this after posting. The briefest of reports though.
brett24 Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Is the rumour that Poch signed a new contract over the weekend totally unfounded?
SO16_Saint Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Is the rumour that Poch signed a new contract over the weekend totally unfounded? Like most things on here Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
LGTL Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Is the rumour that Poch signed a new contract over the weekend totally unfounded? Why would he? He has no particular loyalty to us, some of his best players will be sold and it appears we've reached our highest level. I'm not too sure he'd see the point.
doddisalegend Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Why would he? He has no particular loyalty to us, some of his best players will be sold and it appears we've reached our highest level. I'm not too sure he'd see the point. Unless of course he has no other job offers coming in...... which case we might still be attractive for the time being.
brett24 Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Who knows what's happening, a few positive rumours he is staying so I will take that.
Dr Who? Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 If he signs, I feel the players stay. If he leaves.... We are all sad!
Plumstead_Saint Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Why would he want to go to Spurs? Apparently he thinks the Europa League is crap ;-)
david in sweden Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Why would he want to go to Spurs? Apparently he thinks the Europa League is crap ;-) Exactly.....just signing someone else's successful personnel doesn't mean it will work somewhere else. MP was signed because of his past experience in bringing on young players.....that takes more than one season.....maybe 3 or 4 - but what would he do with Spurs' squad of £100 million rejects? methinks Spurs wouldn't be so patient with him after their time with AVP.
dubai_phil Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 The problem is that people are assuming we'll be reinvesting every penny, when everything has pointed towards any $$$ we get...covering debts. They didn't make the comments about specific figures, and inheriting a difficult financial situation for the sake of it. They did it to prime us for sales and lower future investment in the first team squad. Yes, but the debt we have only equates to the purchase price of Osvaldo & Gaston. IN the current PL that is nothing.
dubai_phil Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Why would he want to go to Spurs? Apparently he thinks the Europa League is crap ;-) Because he wants to keep working with JRod? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2626238/Spurs-set-bid-Saints-star-Jay-Rodriguez-joined-boss-Mauricio-Pochettino-White-Hart-Lane.html ottenham will launch a bid for Southampton striker Jay Rodriguez in the coming weeks.Although the England forward is recovering from surgery on the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, the White Hart Lane club are convinced he will be back in action before the end of the year. Southampton have already fielded bids of £25million from Manchester United for Luke Shaw and £20m from Liverpool for Adam Lallana and are now braced for Tottenham's opening gambit for Rodriguez.

Saint Charlie Posted 12 May, 2014 Author Posted 12 May, 2014 Tonight's Fail offering is Spurs to sack Sherwood tomorrow and approach Saints for MP. He will go if they do and Im sure would do a brilliant job.
goneawol Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 ...the mirror says we could go for Malky http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/southampton-manager-malky-mackay-could-3532560 Usual stuff, full of quotes..

Would hope Reed has another MP style Manager lined up not one of these dour Scottish wallies.

Chewy Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Christ I hope not. Would hope Reed has another MP style Manager lined up not one of these dour Scottish wallies. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Uwe rossler ... If we lose mopo. But I'm still very hopeful we won't.
Olallana Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Dont sign McKay, Malky McKay We just dont think you understand That if you sign McKay, Malky McKay you´ll get a riot on your hands...
Dig Dig Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 ...the mirror says we could go for Malky http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/southampton-manager-malky-mackay-could-3532560 Usual stuff, full of quotes.. The transformation into relegation fodder really would be done in record time.
Olallana Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Tbf, the guy leaking McKay to journos must be sitting somewhere and having a really great laugh..
Bewildered Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/west-brom-manager-tim-sherwood-3532973 Malky is also on WBA's radar supposedly... A lot of demand for a man who wasted 31m last summer, only managing one good signing.
SuperSAINT Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 I think half the prem will be changing managers this summer - madness.
Olallana Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 A few Spurs-Benitez links.....would not surprise me and would make sense after Levys attempts going with younger managers... http://www.footballdirectnews.com/premier-league-news/49159-spurs-to-make-approach-for-ex-reds-boss.php http://www.itv.com/sport/football/article/2014-05-12/transfer-rumours-spurs-want-benitez-to-replace-sherwood-man-united-bid-for-shaw-pardew-eyes-villa-pair/ http://www.football-italia.net/49092/spurs-make-benitez-approach
Baird of the land Posted 12 May, 2014 Posted 12 May, 2014 Journos and their random scatter gun speculation. Given Mackay wouldn't match our style & has no notable youth emphasis sounds like nonsense. Now I could see him at WBA, Clarke mk2.
Bucks Saint Posted 13 May, 2014 Posted 13 May, 2014 A few Spurs-Benitez links.....would not surprise me and would make sense after Levys attempts going with younger managers... http://www.footballdirectnews.com/premier-league-news/49159-spurs-to-make-approach-for-ex-reds-boss.php http://www.itv.com/sport/football/article/2014-05-12/transfer-rumours-spurs-want-benitez-to-replace-sherwood-man-united-bid-for-shaw-pardew-eyes-villa-pair/ http://www.football-italia.net/49092/spurs-make-benitez-approach Would be a good fit, could do well
