percy windham Posted 27 May, 2014 Share Posted 27 May, 2014 A fart can, when silent, take an enemy unawares. Sh1tting yourself would just render you immobile and smelling of sh1t, and a general figure of intense embarrassment.

Kruger is just clearly one of these guys I see at work who spends his days pushing bull**** around meeting rooms like a dung beetle. I'm surprised his statement didnt include more crappy business cliche's "let's not reinvent the wheel", "don't boil the ocean" etc etc. He's a moron.

He played some exciting football but he had the best crop of players we have had in a long time Goodbye thanks for a great season but what matters is who we sign That Kruger bloke seems to have made it in a tough sport.

Saint Charlie Posted 27 May, 2014 Share Posted 27 May, 2014 Thought it was a cracking statement. Makes me positive for the future because we are ambitious and have a good vision.

Wes Tender Posted 27 May, 2014 Share Posted 27 May, 2014 I understand that the Radio Solent forum is to be resurrected before the commencement of the new season. If the statements issued by the official site, the rumours in the media, and the appointment of the new manager doesn't satisfy some on here, that will be the time to quiz RK about the background and the club's ambitions.

Pochettino obviously resigned because he can't handle our ambition. To some extent what was said and how it was said is irrelevant. What is relevant is that actions do speak louder than words, so let us see what happens in the coming weeks before we judge the abilities of the board. This is when it will be make or break for them.

Big words, impressive words, but anyone with an ounce of intelligence will realise they mean sod all. In terms of the role he's actually here to do, he doesn't have a flaming clue what to do.

hypochondriac Posted 27 May, 2014 Share Posted 27 May, 2014 really, thought you were a big fan. Certainly had high hopes and was willing to give them a chance, especially as his track record looks good but he has said quite a few concerning things and after making a big thing out of transparency, have said nothing and allowed the newspapers to speculate for weeks. We appear to have a rudderless ship at the moment and whilst there are clearly other ways to lead than the way Nicola tried, we do need someone to actually take charge and communicate without the BS. What is our plan going forward? Something that outlined our vision without the management speak would be very welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom28 Posted 27 May, 2014 Author Share Posted 27 May, 2014 Some can bury their heads in the sand and claim the rest of us are bedwetters blah blah blah. The more intelligent amongst us can see through the hollow words of our new Chairman, and see what's really going on. For what its worth, feel free to read through my posting history and you'll see I am actually normally very positive, even up to the last few weeks and days. However, the evidence is just too overwhelming to ignore. The owners and this board will be happy to milk the PL revenues and player sales with minimal investment for as long as they can.

Pathetic tantrums saying 'he's a moron' etc. just show people up. I don't have my head in sand but at same time the mob here make me sick.
