Southampton FC look set to appoint a British head coach
8:44am Wednesday 17th June 2009 in Sport
Mark Wotte
SAINTS would almost certainly look to appoint a British manager as soon as possible if Pinnacle’s takeover of the club is completed.
The Matt Le Tissier-endorsed Pinnacle’s 21-day period of exclusivity to complete their takeover expires in two days time.
If that is completed, the search for the club’s 15th manager, or head coach, in as many years will intensify.
Le Tissier has already met current head coach Mark Wotte a few times – their last meeting was two days ago – to talk about Saints’ future.
The Dutchman has not been specifically told yet if his services will be required in 2009/10.

Starts off as almost certainly, and ends up looking like guess work!

Lets face it, if the echo wrote nothing, most of you would not be able to moan on here and they would not sell papers which incidently is what there business consists of, I think that most of you just like to see what you have written with no real worthy comments to say!!

The next possible points deduction will come if Saints can't agree a CVA with the Football League/Inland Revenue, but if this takeover happens, that's not an issue.

Don't lambast me if I'm wrong, just reporting what happens.

Personally as with all things pertinent to Saints it will be dragged out to the last minute and beyond. My only hope is that Le Tissier's influence in football matters might have an impact

The problem is that SMS is public right of way to the underpass & bridge by the railway. The reporters & paps can sit in their cars waiting but as it is also private property they are not allowed to take photos or film without permission. The car reg spelt STELLAR as in the STELLAR group of sports representation. Might be the low profile, mystery money behind Pinnacle? Don't lambast me if I'm wrong, just reporting what happens.

Did Mark Wotte leave some of his breakfast or was that just the pattern on the plate.
An Echo reporter seen straining to remove his posterior from his office chair this morning. Sources not involved with the news desk however confirm that it did not happen.
My tuppence worth for the week :-)

what do you think
about Dave Merrington
being brought in to help with the youth
set-up,he was really good bringing our kids through. Maybe
with a couple of younger coaches,do you think it could work,or should we not go back,he was
Saints through and through though.
