We weren’t ready when he left after two years!
Honestly, you’d think the whole point of a pre season is to be at it from the start.

You can be ready physically and mentally and 100% should be if you're a professional footballer but tactically may take a bit longer if you've got a new manager and a few new players to bed in, even with a full preseason. Still, everyone knows this and managers shouldn't need to be using it as an excuse, at least not publicly.

After Saints beat Reading ...

Speaking after the game he said: "I'm really annoyed at conceding two poor goals.

“There’s going to be loads of mistakes along the way but we will help them through it."

"As long as they are honest mistakes and they remain brave all the time there will be some beautiful moments as there were today, and there will be some sticky ones."

He better have them ready by the October international break or he'll be down the job centre quicker than you can say smarmy cuunt. Those furckers won't hesitate to bring the process to a grinding halt at a moment's notice and make another fruitcake appointment.

Promotion or he's gone, if they drop out of contention they won't hesitate.
