The Press Box - Episode 1 - Next manager discussion

[Matthew Le God]

Southampton FC's Gordon Simpson sits down with journalists Paul Belverstone, Adam Blackmore and Adam Leitch to look ahead to the upcoming 2016/17 campaign.

 

It is official Saints media content; so this is club approved and on the Saints YouTube channel...

'everything is planned, we are comfortable with the situation. Nothing happens unless we control it'

[SuperSAINT]

Going to enjoy watching this later. Interesting move.

 

Have other clubs done similar?

[Saint Garrett]

Strange the club is commenting on gossip in such a way (i havent yet watched this)

 

A bit "West Ham". http://www.whufc.com/News/Articles/2016/May/18-May/The-Insider

 

The weirdest thing I've seen on an OS.

[Colinjb]

Fans want an inside track, this is probably as close as we will get. Sanitised and controlled by the club, sure, but great to have something/anything to get our teeth into.

True, thought they might just release it through Jeremy Wilson or Radio Solent though rather than through the OS

[Bewildered]

If they did discuss candidates for the job, the club decided they didn't want names being named on official club media and edited it out. It was just more of a general discussion about the club, how attractive a proposition the Saints job is and how disappointed all the journalists were with Koeman.

[Beckenham Saint]

From Blackmore's tweet, it sounds like Pellegrini was discussed, but his name doesn't make the final edit. Kind of interesting to watch but nothing groundbreaking.

 

Gist was:

Ronalds a bastard

attractive proposition for future managers

stronger league next year but we're a good team

away days in europa to look forward to and group stage qualification shows how far the club has come

fans want us to win something, should have won league 1

we'll be playing some premier league teams in the premier league next year

Cortese must have an itch.

Just needed Francis Benali signing a tenancy agreement in the background and that would seal it

[Restark19]

Nice idea, would probably make a good audio podcast if this is going to be a regular feature

[harvey]

Paul Belverstone!....remember him doing the sports news on either TVS or Meridian.

[niceandfriendly]

Get Will Cope in to complete the dream team.

[K,Billy's supersound]

Zzzzzzzz.

[SuperSAINT]

Zzzzzzzz.

 

I enjoyed it! - K.Billy, can you tell me whether I should be buying a French, Chilean, or German wine please?

German wine? The only decent German wine has cats **** as one of the flavour notes.

Vin von Klopp seems pretty acceptable.
