We have history with Southampton. We stole their manager and their then best player in Hoddle and Richards. And then we took a certain mr Bale from them. And now we are taking their manager/back room staff and potentially more players. I can understand there slight frustration at us

We came very close to taking Le Tissier from them too!

Yep, fat Matt had actually signed a contract with us but he went begging to Scholar asking him to let him stay at Saints. His wife didn't want to leave I think was the reason. So Scholar tore up the contract.
you are correct; and then MleT and his wife separated/divorced

I find a number of the ITKs end up being parodys of themselves in the end. Twitter doesn't help with its word limit and the buzz word nature of the hash tag but they all seem to turn into attention seeking fools eventually!

You know what?

I don't think there's anything much anything at all ITK can tell us about our coaching situation that we don't already know.
The Goat has tied up the loose ends: on with the transfers...

Our chairman has once again fucked up with another managerial appointment. We will once again be changing manager soon enough because quite frankly Poch is not good enough and we have failed to bring stability to the club by appointing the wrong man. GUTTED

You're the life and soul of the party, aren't you?

Come on mate. It's not that bad. Coming from Sherwood I feel anything is an improvement and Poch deserves our backing if chosen.

tbf he's under no obligation to be happy about this.

i'll support pochettino but it's because i have no other bloody choice, not out of a genuine belief in him. i'm pretty sure we're going to be here again in 18 months.

That's not what my Dad heard (direct from Scholar's mouth). Said it was all agreed but we had to pull out due to the mess we were in financially.

Sounds like something you'd say rather than admit you let a good player slip through your fingers.
