The Echo comments make hilarious reading - well worth a look 
The unfortunate truth is that Adkins will probably get the job but both the Scunthorpe and Bournemouth chairman have made Southampton look both arrogant and stupid (not hard I know with that prat Cortese at the helm). Why oh why do I get the feeling that it will all end in tears and they will be going bust again within the next two years.

Whatever your views on Southampton as a club, the manager's job there should be a really peachy one - good ground, good squad, plenty of cashola to spend, large crowds, lots potential for success at this level. But I get the feeling that there's something badly, badly wrong behind the scenes. That Cortese is a prize arse. Adkins would be wise to stay where he is truly valued. As for Martin O'Neill? More likely to get Neill O'Martin.
That's what makes the whole thing so HILARIO

It's been a VINTAGE week with Chesney Christ and Meade's Ball both in a rich vein of form. 
I'd forgotten about Meado
He was COLOSSAL last night

f*** nose whats going on. Bournemouth reckon Howe turned down the job. Well why the f*** go for the interview then?? The last time we stole a manager from a smaller neighbour, it went Pete Tong so Im relieved.
I'm gonna bury my head in the sand until a new manager is announced. And to be honest I would prefer Brown to Atkins or Howe.

howe probably went for the interview before realising what utter plebs he might end up working for. im sure its not the first time it happened - pwerson applies for job, goes to interview, gets a feeling that there is something wrong, turns it down
i think phil brown would be perfect for southampton. he was treated pretty poorly by hull and deserves a chance to rebuild his reputation

to find out whats on offer, what the job is about, meet those you'd work for... you know the same as in any other job interview. its a two way process, you might find out some of the details arent quite what your agent/contact told you.
though you should be rather worried if people are turning the job down given the funds and facilities. clearly somthing not right.

Dear oh dear, could Southampton make themselves look any more incompetent if they tried? Who is this clown Cortese? 
Whoever ends up as manager is going to wonder if he was their first choice seeing as how at least 2 people have already been offered the job and one has point blank turned it down. How embarrassing that a club the size and draw of Southampton get turned down by the manager of pisspot Bournemouth
Southampton FC the newly appointed laughing stock of the football league. Newcastle fans everywhere are relieved of that burden.

It's Adkins. Down here in the lower depths of despair, we try and get each others names right. At least for a potential manager.
Before Poyet, I was hoping for Wagner. He seems to get his young gents singing from the same song sheet.

Loud, well there are all sorts of times, funny is better.. "Your pissed in the Brian Clough Stand" at Forest raised a laugh... r the Hovis advert tune at huddersfield really got on their nerves, which as a result was funny but the best "Peter Beales" to the west ham fans with peter beale like hats on at Upton Park in the 90s was just genius. it made em sit down and shut up, not the song itself more the 3000 or so Albion laughing at them afterwards.. lost 2-1 gatting 30 yard own goal - lobbed Kaga goo goo Keeley in our goal

A lot of people are saying that whoever gets the job will have a mare working with NC.
You have to remember though that until AP fell out with NC (probably after trying it on with someones wife) AP was actually doing pretty well. Won a trophy and got on the brink of the play offs. Dont forget we started last season with NO team as well as the points deduction.
Any manager that's not up his own arse and not a general **** like AP, would do pretty well here. Brown could easily get us promoted.

Any half decent manager should get Southampton promoted.
