holepuncture Posted 30 July, 2014 Share Posted 30 July, 2014 Yes, pity we dont look like we have the substance and knowhow on the board to make something like this happen... FWIW I suspect we do have people at the top who would be capable of making something like this happen, though we also have a host of decision makers and committees now all with their own visions, agendas, personalities. I miss the Dons ruthless single minded vision. I also think Cortese would agree with most of that article, thinking back over some of his very limited comments over the years: Looking to emulate the Barca academy, our Southampton Way philosophy at Staplewood etc. Saying one day we could pay a player £200K PW (Regarding the FFP figures in the article, again, if Cortese really was able to deliver the CL, then he could increase the wage bill accordingly). Saying we can never compete with the financial wealth of the big six, and that we have to think of other ways to be competitive, such as the academy (football leaders thing). Recently saying that SFC will always find it hard to resist the big clubs due to the salaries that the players would be offered. Oh well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave Sir Robin Posted 30 July, 2014 Share Posted 30 July, 2014 (edited) Err.. That's the impression I've had all along. Surely that's why we set up a development centre in North Africa and packed Radhi Jaïdi off to be it's figurehead, and why Ralph keeps harkin on about branding and commercial operations? Ever since Cortese quite rightly stated his opposition to FFP but failed to convince anyone that it shouldn't be implemented, it was clear that we needed a new way to grow the club within the boundaries set by FFP. The only catch is that we'd ideally also like to keep playing in the Premier League as well as bringing the country's top talent through our academy, which is where things start to get complicated!

I may have mentioned once or twice that it's possibly the pesky FFP rules that have scuppered our ambitions.... I am left wondering whether the ultimate reason for Katharina and Cortese "falling out" was that Cortese wanted to flout the FFP rules, sticking two fingers up to the Premier League in the process (and taking any punishment on the chin) whilst Katharina wasn't willing to break the rules (her being Swiss and honourable and all that...) Anyone know what our 'punishment' would be if we did break the FFP wage cap? Points deduction? A fine? Slap on the wrist? If the punishment is a fine, does anyone know if the potential financial rewards of breaking the rules (e.g. Champions League qualification) could/would outweigh the cost of paying the fine? I'm just picking up on what Krueger said yesterday about the club switching its strategy, in the wake of Cortese's departure, from a fast-track route into Europe to a more slower organic path....

"The aforementioned are all ways of effectively increasing revenue, but that is without mentioning player sales. Like any club that gets taken over and improves its standing within the European game, there will always be players moved on who don’t quite fit in with the team’s plans any longer. Recouping a sizeable amount of the original fee paid for the player—or in other cases, turning a profit—is another part of PSG’s strategy. " So, by selling players some of our players at a profit we are simply emulating the PSG model of revenue generation..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Tone Posted 30 July, 2014 Share Posted 30 July, 2014 What I don't see explained in the regs that I've read, is ....... year 1: club exceeds the £4million pay increase by say £20million, raising its wage bill form say the £52 bear point to £72 million. It is punished. year 2 : is the club's base wage bill now £72million? So it could continue to pay £72 million, or indeed raise it by another £4 million, with no further punishment? if so, it may even be a sensible tactic for a club (with a rich backer) to deliberately break the rules and take even a points deduction one year, to allow it to compete with the big boys in future years.

Saint Fan CaM Posted 30 July, 2014 Share Posted 30 July, 2014 Perhaps the recent player sales are being completed to establish a war chest to pay the FFP fine? With the PL/Sky money this must be close to £160m, so even if the fine was £1m, it would be a small price to pay. Nah, too simple eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that scenario holds true, which I've no reason to doubt, then I can easily see how Cortese and Katharina could have come to metaphorical blows over this. Cortese strikes me as the kind of chap who would break the rules in the short term in order to achieve the longer term goal, but I would imagine Katharina wouldn't contemplate such a ruse. Just a hunch as always of course. Edited 30 July, 2014 by trousers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Boy Saint Posted 1 August, 2014 Share Posted 1 August, 2014 FFP certainly does look like it was put together in the Snug down the Dog and Duck after an afternoon on the beer, and written down on the back of a fag packet and ratified by another group who were on the Brandy and Cigar course of a very exceptional meal, the fact that you can be operating with many Millions of pounds of debt and still be able to spend money like water without recourse is barking mad. It certainly has all gone to the dogs. I just wonder when the football bubble will burst through pure apathy: sadly when you look at Barcelona and Real getting 55% of the TV money in Spain that day looks a very very long way off.

NewYorkSaint Posted 1 August, 2014 Share Posted 1 August, 2014 Fantastic article. And the incredible idea presented in the last few paragraphs of Saints launching a global football development school actually isn't that insane. Someone with vision could do that. It would be a gamble if the only purpose was to nurture talent for the club to play or sell. But if you add on to that the idea of building Southampton as a global brand that stands for giving every talented kid anywhere in the world a chance to realize their potential.. now that really would be something.

Funny how a relatively positive article (well, nearer the end!) only has a handful of replies compared to pages following the BBC article... sorry - not funny, meant normal round these parts! Everyone should read the article, interesting to know how many peoples minds it changes, and if people can be a bit more rational and stop hating Ralph/Les/KL etc, like we sold all the players just because we wanted to. I posted it directly in reply to someone saying that Saints purposely chose not to offer the leaving players the same wages they were being offered elsewhere...

angelman Posted 2 August, 2014 Share Posted 2 August, 2014 I do find the whole thing very interesting. But what I can't understand is what the Premier League is doing? If there is a European Super League (ESL), then wouldn't that mean that those that run the PL would have a severely diminished product, and they aren't likely to be running the ESL. They might have a finger in the ESL pie, but that would be less than what they currently have with the PL. So we have a situation where the Big 6 + Everton have basically made the top 7 a closed shop. The gap between them and us will get more and more as they make ever more money until it really will be meaningless to have the league in the format that it is currently in. To be honest, I already feel that it has reached that point, but it will just get worse and worse. So Charles Greeen's comments might well be prophetic, although hugely arrogant and ignoring the fact that it is smaller clubs that have allowed the big boys to get big. I do think it fairly inevitable that there will be a ESL to the detriment of football in all countries. As I don't support Man Utd or Real Madrid, I have little interest in seeing them play each other every year in a league. Having said that, football is an entertainment business. You do not have to have the highest standard of football to be entertained. Much more entertaining if teams are equally matched, so maybe an ESL won't be the worst thing in the world. As the article says, and as I have been banging on about, I really can't see the point of joining a competition that you have no chance of winning. What is the point of being an established mid table teams? Is it only so that you can get the rewards and watch the top 6 swan into town with all their foreign players? How often have supporters said that they would rather be in the Championship? While that might not be strictly true, I think that we all understand the sentiment. They/us can win the Championship. I guess you can say that we won the PL (section 2) last season. Wow - that's great. But as I say, I really can't understand what the PL is doing. They seem to be becoming architects of their own downfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
washsaint Posted 2 August, 2014 Share Posted 2 August, 2014 What a great article.......superb. Really interesting angle re. the Academy too.

Jackie@home Posted 2 August, 2014 Share Posted 2 August, 2014 Good article, and it explains Saints predicament well. I've always thought that it was not coincidence that Cortese left after the FFP rules came in. I can imagine that he might have wanted to flaunt the rules, but we know that the likelihood is that the authorities will come down like a ton of bricks on a club like Saints, but clubs like Man City will get a punishment that they are in a position to cope with quite easily. Fair play it certainly isn't, as even that tabloid idiot Martin Samuels has worked out. Too many posters on the forum ignoring the consequences of FFP!

KL, are you there? This would be a vision your dad would be proud of. The idea of a global academy is not insane, but the idea that it could be a Southampton brand is I'm afraid a little far-fetched. It is based on the idea that Southampton Saints (ughhh!) Academy is a world-wide phenomenon and would be well understood by fans of the PL, and therein lies the problem. We may have this grandiose idea that the Southampton Academy is the best there is, but in reality as far as the PL is concerned what (or who) has it produced. The only world renowned player is Bale, and he does not play in the PL. Even then most people would (wrongly) associate him with Spuds. Walcott and Chamberlain are hardly world superstars. Shaw? Really has not done anything of note as yet. Lallana, noting of any great note. These are all great products of our Academy, but there is no-one other than Bale who would be talked about out side of England. Whereas ManU for instance could easily point to the Beckham, Giggs, Scholes, etc raft of players who are all household names, and even Liverpool could boast more well known Academy products than us. Unfortunately the only Club that could really sell a global Academy brand would be Barcelona. In the USA Southampton is probably best known for the Titanic rather than any football connection, and many Americans would probably think you were talking about Southampton, New York rather than Southampton, England.

It'll be forgotten by all except a few, and you can guarantee that years in the future, people on here will repeat verbatim nonsense about KL attempting to sell the club and thats why she sold the players, or it being Ralph's fault coz he prefers hockey, or the players leaving coz they all had a secret pact, and the more plausible reasons for our players leaving will be ignored. I bet 95% of people on this forum if asked for the reasons for the players leaving wouldn't even mention the FFP. I still find it odd that the info contained within this article hasn't been picked up elsewhere and its barely been commented on here.

ENSKIED Posted 3 August, 2014 Share Posted 3 August, 2014 Good and in many ways informative article. However, now for the caveat, it contains one rather considerable flaw or misconception. The writer finishes his conceptual thrust with, "With the memory of Bale and co still fresh, there is a brief window of opportunity for Saints to grab a seat at football’s top table. Inevitably it will take a triumph of marketing, not football to get them there, but it’s got to be worth a shot, surely?" It is always good to end a piece on an optimistic note, however, the concept that in a sense negaes it is this, that UNLESS the Saints can keep hold of the likes of Bale, Lallana, Shaw, Lambert, etc. etc. in order to BUILD ON THAT type of foundation, they will find it nigh impossible to create a Global Brand and creating a Global Brand does not happen overnight and that is the key to compete with the Big Boys. [The Saints this coming season I think could have made the Top 4. of that I am convinced - that's IF the Saint's had NOT been 'pillaged'. Along with Liverpool and City the Saints IMHO were the most entertaining team of last season, wonderful stuff for the purist, of which I am one. I am gutted, I was hoping to see them continue on developing in the Prem this season. Maybe just maybe the miracle will continue on but it will take that - a miracle] Anyway back to the main theme - the teams that have the "marketable" BIG name players and thus 'win' things are the ones the non-grass root support WANTS to follow - let's get that straight! That's why of course the Big Teams are kings of the plassy supporters, you know 50,000 at the match 2,000,000 plus watching on worldwide TV and buying most of the merchandise, walking around far away high streets and thoroughfares sometimes almost with an air of flirtation and the touting of their allegiance often houses a subcutaneous taunt. Psychologically speaking, their 'by proxy' symbol "of hey you! Yes you! I'm as success mate - look whom I support!" To create a Global Brand which is the road to truly competing with the Top Table - the Saints MUST indeed HAVE to be ALLOWED - to hang on to their Greats. So something has to be introduced to stop them being asset stripped ever again. It's not sport and it certainly isn't fair - in fact it's finally become devolved to being ALL about the almighty dollar and the very SOUL of the game duly suffers.
