Weston Super Saint Posted 24 April, 2023 Share Posted 24 April, 2023 It's definitely a saints fan reaction! People have been moaning that we've not produced any players from the academy for several years, but up in arms when the academy director moves on. Maybe there is someone better out there? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarehamSaintJames Posted 24 April, 2023 Share Posted 24 April, 2023 I reckon the majority are being pushed towards the door. SR have a lot of work to do to get this right. People might say “Well these lot leaving haven’t done anything” but that said we are worse off on a footballing side since SR came in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

washsaint Posted 24 April, 2023 Share Posted 24 April, 2023 Funny how all these people leaving (and according to our uber fans are not good enough anyway) are going on to bigger and better things. Anyone who has any confidence in the charlatan that is Ankerson is deluded. Every decision so far seems to have been horribly wrong. very worrying times 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garrett Posted 24 April, 2023 Share Posted 24 April, 2023 It's not necessarily a bad thing. (I have no idea) But clearly, SR are restructuring the club starting at the top. I was told a while back that Semmens was on his way out, but haven't heard much since. But basically SR are looking to consolidate some of these roles into their setup. i.e. Scouting team that is working on recruitment for SR, not necessarily for Southampton FC. This summer is going to be incredibly interesting for a lot of different reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusic Posted 24 April, 2023 Share Posted 24 April, 2023 If anyone is qualified to structure the academy and make some good hires its Jason Wilcox. The fact he is incoming is the one positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not against a clear out in the slightest, just very scared that Rasmus would be leading the charge on sourcing replacements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if you read Fabrice's post on the other thread then Semmens, crocker, Hale etc. are to blame for this season, and in actual fact Rasmus is the fall guy... So stop being mean to Rasmus, Ivan!!

niceandfriendly Posted 15 June, 2023 Share Posted 15 June, 2023 (edited) Bit of a strange one this, unless explained clearly by someone which I missed.

Saint Garrett Posted 15 June, 2023 Share Posted 15 June, 2023 It's just a complete reshuffle. Sports Republic want their own set up and own people. These people either don't want to be part of it, or SR don't want them to be part of it. I'm not concerned about it, the club needs a shake up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
