Actually, Fonte working with Lallana and Spors, and maybe even Rusk, could be an inspired move. He was very good at motivating players around him, something that has been sadly lacking since he left. He understands English football at both Championship and Premier League level. Also, I think he still owns property in the city, retaining a link to the city. [Post edited 7 Apr 16:42]

Worth remembering: Only one country has ever asked for NATOs assistance. America. After 9/11. I think Trump and Vance are jealous of Zelenskyy - after all he's a real hero not just a motor mouth! [Post edited 4 Mar 14:57]

There is one word to sum up the players - cowards! |

Comparing the current squad of a Premier League team who have had not insignificant financial investment with the squads of a Championship club which was heading for bankruptcy is frankly a bit desperate! It's like comparing mouldy oranges with rotten apples. |

A great example of Parsons' running of the non-football side of the business was the FA Cup ticket pricing. To Nick's point, sensible pricing would have attracted more casual fans, which in turn would have boosted revenue from the shop, food & drink etc. The fact that the clear and obvious Swansea mistake was repeated for the Burnley game suggests that Parsons hasn't got really a clue about revenue generation. |

No chance of a protest - our fans are like cattle being quietly led to slaughter. It's one of the reasons I've stopped going - along with not wanting to give SR a single penny. |

I think the solution is for Sport Republic to stop this ludicrous multi-club model - which seems to benefit none of the clubs, with the possible exception of Goztepe who seem to be able to source players via Saints (although I think that this is a marginal benefit). I can't actually think of any multi-club models that bring benefit to all the clubs involved as a result of being part of the model. My solution would be for the clubs to be run completely separately (although they could still have the same parent company). Ankersen could then focus solely on Goztepe, Kraft on Valenciennes and Solak on Saints (his biggest investment) with a competent DoF who understands English football. |

Also, fitness takes time to build up and there is a clear correlation between lack of fitness and making mistakes - something Saints have been guilt of all season. Martin clearly was a very lazy manager - not just in this respect but also going into Winchester instead of watching Saint's next two opponents. I really pity whichever team he joins next (please make it Pompey!). |

I would change the words to: "We hate Sport Republic , we hate Ankerson too. We hate Henrik Kraft, but Southampton we love you.” |

As mentioned on a different thread, Saints are paying the price for a lack of fitness - 100% down to Martin. However, I totally agree with your views on Sport Republic - who I despise for what they have done to our club. [Post edited 17 Jan 10:30]
