The most experienced manager out there who is available. There's a ton of jobless managers that could be worth a look at. No idea if any would consider us, but there's plenty of experience out there. Top of my head: Rudi Garcia (of Marseille, Lyon, Napoli fame) Benitez (of Everton fame :-) Sarri ( would love him... ) N. Lennon ( did ok with Celtic, since then not much) Klinsmann (if we can have Koeman, why not our fav German) Hjulmand (ex Denmark manager) Ivic (SR might want a Serbian in ... ex-watford if I remember correclty) Pretty sure Puel and Pellegrino are also available :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was planning on going to a fair few home games this side of Christmas but I haven't been to a single one - just not interested in paying to watch us play like shit when I can watch every game at home.

david in sweden Posted Monday at 16:32 Share Posted Monday at 16:32 Whilst bemoaning the potential loss of £12 million (in redundancy pay) ... IF.. we sack RM & Co. One might like to compare that to the astronomical sums squandered on "poor" signings in the last 10 years . These are some of the " cheapies" (those under 10 mill.) Carrillo, Boufal, Lemina, Djenepo, Elyounoussi, Hoedt... (should I include Vestergaard?). That lot alone cost a good lick over £100 million. (plus their inflated salaries) ..In comparison to that lot, dishing out another £12 mill. to get a new face in might seem like a drop in the Ocean. I don't like seeing managers come and go, but without the likes of a Tony Pulis or " Big Sam" (who were experts and keeping clubs UP), there doesn't seem to be any viable replacements on the horizon.... and everyone seems to be avoiding Potter like the plague (?) IF... RM doesn't change "something" in the formation there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel, and this lot need a good kick up the a*se from an S.O.B. who can get results - without pandering to their every whim and excusing their every failure.

Maggie May Posted Monday at 18:55 Share Posted Monday at 18:55 This thread sums up how vitriolic this place has become over the past few years. It seems the success we enjoyed in the mid-2010s has turned a lot of us into an entitled bunch. Saintsforever was a more enjoyable experience. Saints were shite, but they were our shite. Now it’s just embarrassing barbs at each other and one-upmanship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
