miserableoldgit Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 I am sure that this has already been posted somewhere. How funny would THAT be? http://www.fansnetwork.co.uk/football/southampton/news/35497/ Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk
The9 Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 I would enjoy Juventus poaching Pochettino from Spurs quite a lot.
berkshiresaint Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Oh please God let this be true! The spuds will be the laughing stock of the premier league as they ferret around trying to get a new man in.
Golden Balls Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Would be funny, however I see no rumours other than The Ugly Inside piece and people responding to it. Unless I missed something?
Saint Fan CaM Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 It would be funny, but can't see this happening.
Essruu Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 The fact is, he thought long and hard over the move to Spurs - the family then decided to continue living in their Chilworth home (rather than moving closer to North London) so that his children can continue their places at University, school and the SFC academy, I can't imagine they'd entertain the idea of uprooting to a Italy at this juncture.
angelman Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Would be funny, but there are no rumours and it won't happen, although funnier things have happened in football.

Shame Southampton doesn't fly direct to Turin then.
igsey Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Would be hilarious, I'd be worried about losing Koeman to Spurs though!
Mowgli Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Would be hilarious, I'd be worried about losing Koeman to Spurs though! I thought that but I think he has more intergity than that. Poch too to be fair.
sussexsaint Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Poch too to be fair. hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahhahahahhahahhahahha
angelman Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Shame Southampton doesn't fly direct to Turin then. Plenty easy enough to get to Turin from Soton and a number of airports close enough to Turin Chambery - 135 miles away Verona - 160 miles Grenoble, Geneva and Nice - 180 miles away
angelman Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Would be hilarious, I'd be worried about losing Koeman to Spurs though! I know it's hypothetical, but would he go? How secure is the job (rhetorical)? He has his brother and respective families to think of and despite our recent number of managers, he and his (extended) family could be here for quite a number of years. But then this is football, so anything goes.
Bearsy Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Nick writes so many satire articles, i can't tell when he's serious anymore
OldNick Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Looks like a load of nonsense to me. As for MP not liking the fans i cant recall many songs singing his name or 'give us a wave Poch'. IMO he would have still some sentiment toward us and appreciation what SFC have done for his profile. He gave us hope, and sadly that has been dashed. Krueger did us no favours and i wonder if his words gave MP little faith that the club would be able to match his ambition.

angelman Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Yeah, that seems viable on a daily basis... Why does it have to be a daily basis? I know plenty of people who work away from their families all week. Sheesh, people on here are so narrow minded sometimes.
September Saint Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 My thought exactlyWould be hilarious, I'd be worried about losing Koeman to Spurs though!

There was the infamous 'We signed Pochettino' song that would be repeated a lot throughout many a game!?
trousers Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Why does it have to be a daily basis? I know plenty of people who work away from their families all week. I'm guessing most of those people don't have a game of football to manage at the weekend....?
The9 Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 There was the infamous 'We signed Pochettino' song that would be repeated a lot throughout many a game!? And "Pochettino's Renwhiarmy"
angelman Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 I'm guessing most of those people don't have a game of football to manage at the weekend....? No, but then it doesn't have to be the manager of a football team that does the "commuting" does it?
angelman Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Ok fine, in which case, it doesn't matter whether he lives in Chilworth or not either way. Suppose so, but as it isn't going to happen. Not much point carrying on. Just wanted to say that some people do some extraordinary things. Came across someone who commutes on a weekly basis to and from near London to South Africa.

cortee Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Maybe he could give his buddy Osvaldo a game there if he go's there
Sour Mash Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Pochettino chose to leave and didn't have to, stop trying to blame others. Exactly this, drawn out process over several weeks which did Saints no favours as well.
Sour Mash Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 The fact is, he thought long and hard over the move to Spurs - the family then decided to continue living in their Chilworth home (rather than moving closer to North London) so that his children can continue their places at University, school and the SFC academy, I can't imagine they'd entertain the idea of uprooting to a Italy at this juncture. He's got a lad that is still in the Saints academy? That's a turn up for the books! Fair old commute that, Chilworth to Herts, good two hour drive each way.

'00' Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Its as serious as the article about Rodgers buying a house in Marchwood so he can monitor the rest of the Saints side. The Unfunny Inside more like.
Window Cleaner Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Oh please God let this be true! The spuds will be the laughing stock of the premier league as they ferret around trying to get a new man in. Not at all correct though, just made up crap. Allegri will take the job at Juve
Ken Tone Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Not at all correct though, just made up crap. Allegri will take the job at Juve You're almost certainly right, but it would still be wonderful for this rumour to spread and give the Spurs fans something to worry about
Window Cleaner Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 You're almost certainly right, but it would still be wonderful for this rumour to spread and give the Spurs fans something to worry about If they worry about something as false as this then they must be stupider than even I think.Anti-anxiolitics all round necessary there.
CB Saint Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Whilst this is undoubtedly garbage, I really really really want this to happen. Pretty please. With an effing big cherry on top.
Window Cleaner Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Whilst this is undoubtedly garbage, I really really really want this to happen. Pretty please. With an effing big cherry on top. Allegri signs on this morning, hope it doesn't ruin your day too much though.
OldNick Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Pochettino chose to leave and didn't have to, stop trying to blame others. So have many others over the years. I have seen many people leave companies by choice and the new people being part of the reason. The club has been unsettled, mainly money and to a degree ambition or lack of it played a part as well.

The club has been unsettled, mainly money and to a degree ambition or lack of it played a part as well. In fact Conte left Juventus over a dispute concerning the recruitment budget. Happens everywhere apparently, managers and players want progress, if they aren't convinced that they can get it with one club then they'll look elsewhere.
Whitey Grandad Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Plenty easy enough to get to Turin from Soton and a number of airports close enough to Turin Chambery - 135 miles away Verona - 160 miles Grenoble, Geneva and Nice - 180 miles away Or Heathrow 60 miles or Gatwick 85?
Give it to Ron Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 He's got a lad that is still in the Saints academy? That's a turn up for the books! Fair old commute that, Chilworth to Herts, good two hour drive each way. Old Bagpuss did it from Sandbanks.....quite often saw him at Rownhams services
waylander Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Juventus have appointed a coach http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/9383781/serie-a-juventus-appoint-massimiliano-allegri-as-new-coach

Horley CTFC Saint Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Oh please God let this be true! The spuds will be the laughing stock of the premier league as they ferret around trying to get a new man in. Surely they've already lined up Ronnie K?!
St Chalet Posted 16 July, 2014 Posted 16 July, 2014 Given this is neither Saints related or true I'm taking the decision to close this thread.
