Trav Le Bleu Posted 27 May 2025 Posted 27 May 2025 Breaking news on RL! Dan Cole is retiring. No matter how much people want this to happen cos they love wallowing in their gloom or need reaffirmation that people who have made poor decisions in the past will never make a good one, this isn't happening. Not saying we'll appoint someone better, but it's not RM. Not today, at least.

Unless the severance package with RVN is taking more negotiation than anyone thought, you have to question why both it and Martin's appointment haven't taken place yet if that's the plan.

The club just don’t have a clue. Bring in someone who does.

This stupid obsession with slow intricate play is doing my head in at this point. And that's where we are now. Forget the PL for now, we arent in it, and we may not be in it next year either. Teams will be sitting back against us next season so we need to play that style, our best players thrive playing that style, that's just the reality of where we're at, we arent going to play like the team of 15/16 whoever comes in

There have been other people mentioned that I'd have preferred (Rohl, for example), but I'll be behind him if he is appointed. Two things I'd be interested to hear from Saints/Swans fans - how was the fitness of the players and did there appear to be a good bond between him and the squad? Did they buy into his ideas or were they like us when Potter came in? Having a team with strong mentality and sense of togetherness is something I feel like we have lacked for years. I don't remember Potter's tenure. 3

Popular Post wurmer Posted 27 May 2025 Popular Post Posted 27 May 2025 I'd rather they just sacked RVN and then appointed RVN again. That would actually be less stupid than appointing RM. 4 13

The one silver lining on that cloud being that if his agent has put out the Rangers story to push us along, that means we haven't fully committed to Martin yet. 2

Have they acknowledged our relegation yet? Just our place in next years championship, are they ostriches? 1
Guest Bilo Posted 27 May 2025 Posted 27 May 2025 I am finding it strange that none of the usual reliable sources are reporting this as done or even close to done. Nothing from John Percy, Rob Tanner, Fabrizio Romano or anyone.

Atleast we know hes actually a good Championship manager He’s about the same as Martin just a less tippy tappy. He didn’t win automatic promotion. Really if we want a proper promotion expert get on the phone to Warnock, Pulis, Hodgson, Allardyce, Redknapp, Pardew or someone! 2

This is in context to someone saying they’d rather keep Ruud then Russell Martin. Im not being serious. But he took them from near the relegation zone to promotion tbf to him. Hes a better Championship manager then Russell Martin. Definetley a better Premier league one as well looking at their records Edited 27 May 2025 by South Shire Fox 1
