Good morning everyone

You'll have had a pop-up asking you to make sure you've read the rules to this part of the site. It's in your interests to do so as things are a touch different in here. If you've dismissed the notification, you're effectively telling us that you've read the rules. So saying "I didn't know" won't cut the mustard.

That's that out the way.

Last night I took my girlfriend out for a meal when, all of a sudden, I got down on one knee.

"Oh A&C" she said. "I can't believe this is happening!"

"Shut the fuck up" I said, peering over the table. "My wife's just walked in"

You want the ITK don't you? No flies on you lot. OK then….
First up Atlanta Yid on COYS told us that
Atlanta Yid said:
The Owner wants Pochettino, The Chairman wants a fat spanish waiter
And the fans want LVG, see you in 18 months.

Then someone called Trix on COYS gave us this
Trix said:
Just received a text, agent of a prominent Saints first team player told my mate this morning it will 100% be Poch, just compensation etc to be sorted.
I'm not sure there's actually much to be sorted, from what i've read in the rags, the compo is set at £2m out of Pochettino's pocket. "Pochs Pocket" hehe

Finally and again from COYS, on Pochettino
Hertyid said:
I don't know if they met today but I do know that he's def top of the list at the moment.
And that was the eyeteekay from yesterday.

Donations. I'll make a post in the thread when yesterdays numbers are in. A huge thanks to those of you who donated and a nudge in the ribs to those of you who didn't. Come on guys. Pleeeease?

And finally, I have a question: If you had the choice between your wife and winning the lottery,what kind of car would you buy first?

I like Les but I was unsure about him as a coach and then for him to say there was no need for a defensive CM.... I am quite glad to hear that he may be gone. I do like Freund and hope he stays though.

Storts' ITK doesn't really come as a surprise. One assumes that Baldyknees is safe for the moment, even though he's managed to make Comolli look a byword for acuity when it comes to transfer dealings.

I also hope Freund stays. He is widely reported to be an excellent coach and really has some passion for this club. I'm gutted that he didn't score during King's testimonial!

As much as I like Sir Les, i'm not going to lose any sleep over his departure from the coaching staff. His work with our forwards has been ... well ...

Baldini will be kept on until such time as Levy comes under pressure. At which point he'll be tossed aside like a macdonalds cheeseburger wrapper. He's so blatantly the fall guy we should rename him Lee Majors.

Pleased about the Michy Batshuayi news. He's the exact profile of striker we should have signed and been developing over the past couple of seasons whilst Defoe was fading.

I was shocked that Batshuayi didnt make the world cup squad. He is good signing but there is better out there that could make a difference now

If we want a physical beast to play in some games, then Batshuayi is a reasonably priced alternative to Lukaku and Benteke, he also is a better all round footballer from what I have seen. Yes there are better players out there, but I imagine the plan is to let Ade go and replace him, whilst giving Soldado time to rediscover his form.

I dont disagree with that but Batshuayi is further back in his development at the moment. Will be interesting summer if Baldini will be here as then we may be linked with Destro as well, apparently roma want €25million which probably means he can go for £16-18mill
