Mbemba Youre A Womble Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Puel's sacking was more political/contractual than actual league performance. Have a few Southampton friends and whilst they always thought the football was boring as hell - especially at home - they we're happy enough with what he was doing there. Texted couple of them, neither want Hughes, Jokanovic from Fulham seems a decent shout Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye that was my reaction. Wouldn't be worst of appointments, would rather him than Hughes if I was Saints fan. Bound to be offered better deal than what he's on at Fulham (even if they do go up), plus decent bonus if he keeps them up would be a draw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sold a dream, given a lie :'( 8 games is enough time for anyone coming in to turn that around, and keep them up. As things stand their not even in bottom 3, no way cut adrift, and enough teams around there still for them to still be alive. Tough set of fixtures goes against them though, but any manager will back themselves to have an effect.

Mbemba Youre A Womble Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Can't be the only one that would love to see West Ham drop, so could be decent news if Southampton can have a little lift whilst WH are in a tale spin. Wouldn't mind Palace or Stoke going down with them tbh. WBA, WHU and Stoke would be my ideal three to get fucked No PL game until 31st, away at West Ham. So if board have done it right, and found someone ready to come in quick, they could have decent amount of time to prepare and get that 'manager lift' going. Win in cup against Wigan wouldn't be worst of starts either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win in cup against Wigan wouldn't be worst of starts either. Yup, would love to see London Stadium as the "best" venue in the Championship. Was chatting to a Hammers mate and said that we hate Ashley (with good reason), but the Porn kings are proper gangsters and thieves. Imagine being sat on the fence and yet so far from the action - there was a joke from the weekend about the stewards being so slow to react because they were winded running from the fence to the sideline. So yeah, fuck West Ham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimbo Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I laughed at the headline about this on the daily mails site this morning, "Mark Hughes set for STUNNING return to management". It's about as stunning as smelling a turd and discovering it smells like shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Too late for the Saints, is my prediction. Agree, they've been on the slide for ages. Should have acted a minimum 6 weeks ago. Only way they don't go down is if teams like Palace and West Ham contrive to be even worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
