Straight out of the Jeremy Wilson/Les Reed blowing smoke up one’s posterior school. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/clyr6g4d0weo Quote The experience of Rasmus Ankersen, co-founder and chief executive of Saints owners Sport Republic, means he remains patient and strategic. His time at Brentford as co-director of football - helping to oversee the Bees' rise and Premier League promotion - has given him knowledge of how to build a sustainable model and a successful team. Jesus wept. Rasmus himself must've fed them that bullshit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been said before that the aim is to be in the Prem at the end of said 5 years and going up/down in the interim doesn't change that. Bloody hope not.

Galway saint Posted November 9 Share Posted November 9 Looks like we will be effectively down by Xmas as that was last chance saloon today. No shots on target in a must win game. I still think he will be here by Xmas but I can’t see him being here next season whatever guff SR might talk about ten year plans. Once we are effectively down the morale will drop like a stone and we will be on the end of some serious hidings and it will start to get toxic quickly. I just can’t see SR not capitulating before the end of the season.. They won’t of course act when it’s still possible to do something to change the outcome ( albeit with our attack I think most managers would struggle to keep us up) but I can’t se him getting through this season as it’s going to be pretty grim. We’ve already lost 9 from 11 and can anyone see it getting better ? There absolutely nothing to indicate it will. But as we keep saying who on earth will they appoint next. I have no faith in these guys at all and you get the feeling most decent managers will give us a wide berth. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Dragan grows a pair and deals with the fact his organ grinder is out of his depth so far that it makes the old Southampton Central Baths feel like the Atlantic Ocean, little chance of that. In his shoes, I’d be heading to a top sports partnerships law firm and seeing how I could dissolve his and Kraft’s shares, and get some practical football industry experience on the SR board. Dragan hasn’t shown much chance that will happen though or he’s got the backbone to execute it and restructure SR. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several posters shot me down saying that offering such a contract never happens and all Championship managers have a promotion clause that includes automatic extension on promotion. I think they are wrong and there was nothing to stop the club offering exactly what you describe. If RM insisted on a contract with a promotion extension then the club could simply tell him good luck with his job search elsewhere. It’s not like we were trying to hire Pep or Klopp. He was a championship nonentity manager who would be grateful for the job and a one time promotion bonus. In short, offering him the extension, or having it in the original contract, was yet one more of the multitude of Rasmus/SR’s balls ups.

If SR appointed Slaven Bilic, or a younger Neil Warnock or Harry Redknapp with a long record from promotions, that’s what they’d expect. But Russell Martin admitted himself post-match at Wembley he was a gamble. Dragan needs to dissolve SR as currently constituted, get some other high worth investors on board and definitely a proper DoF for the umbrella. He might think he’d be stuffed without Rasmus’s data and systems but a high profile agent like Mendez would have access to similar kit whilst the scouting network was rebuilt (which has been needed at SFC since Mitchell left). Wolves did well in their promotion season with a strategic recruitment to an agent. Why not try it? Rasmus and his mate/s are killing Dragan’s investments at all three clubs.

obelisk Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 Anybody buying into Martin's vision of football (fans, players or SR) must surely be having buyer's remorse by now. The bloke's obviously good at the sales patter but the players surely can't be enjoying getting turned over every week. Let's face it, the Everton game papered over the cracks of what could easily have been another defeat and yesterday normal service was resumed. This con-artist thinks he can re-invent football but his one-dimensional, plodding, backwards/sideways nonsense is easily countered by opponents. If SR really think that this geezer can get Saints promoted next time after this season's inevitable relegation they need to think again. Even Championship managers had begun to work him out last time round and they'll be well-prepared next season. Football is essentially a simple game. If only Martin could come to grips with the idea that it's basically all about scoring more goals than your opponent. Time to ditch him but I bet they don't. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF I would assume it is a clever clause to get out in by the agent, with the assumption that if he got us promoted then everyone would be happy and a new contract at a PL level for the Manager is reasonable. 10 hours ago, westmidlandsaint said: I've been told it would cost us £14m in compensation to Russell Martin and his coaching team if we sack him.

Toussaint Posted November 10 Share Posted November 10 The disallowed goal was wrong, but it’s shouldn’t distract us from the abject failure of Russball. Gary O’Neil absolutely schooled him yesterday. He didn’t give a flying farque regarding how much possession we’d have, he had a game plan to render us impotent, which was executed to perfection for the whole of the second half and a portion of the first. That was an awful, toothless , gutless exhibition of football by Saints! Regarding the second goal, why was Ramsdale the only one to passionately protest, they should have all kicked off, VAR may have felt compelled to look at it. We are pussies lead by a pussy, who’s more interested in licking and grooming himself than anything or anyone else. On a similar note, big shout to Gary O’Neil and Wolves for absolute shithousery, if that what it takes to give yourself the best chance of survival I’m 100% behind it. posted this on the match thread also 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We then played our normal game of keepball, had a goal wrongly disallowed and they had a 30 yarder to close the game out with a foul in the buildup. Managers don't plan for those type of goals.
