CHAIRMAN RESIGNS

Nicola Cortese has resigned as Southampton chairman.

Owner Katharina Liebherr has installed herself as the non executive chairman.

The manager and his coaches have been in a meeting as well,they could be next to resign.

Pochettino said in the summer he's resign if Cortese left.

Could be an intetesting few days there.

i was told prior to our game with them......losing manager gets sacked........i took it with a pinch of salt,but the guy that told me tends to be correct about what goes on down there...............

Not sure what it is with football owners but when things are going well they seem to enjoy upsetting things.

Can we change that to Southampton chairman resigns?

Might be a bit misleading to people who haven't heard the news.

Read about it this morning, but sounded as if it might be at the end of the season. Surprised, to say the least. But then again, that's football. Always something unexpected!

Manager wi go next, as he stated he was brought there by chairman so wouldn't be right without him there

before i clicked on it, i was expecting 'Simon Lim resigns', gutted now!

Good fit for Malky?

Yes, that what it seems to be, unofficially i'd say it should be knobhead.

Only until they read the first sentence.

Don't be silly Cal, it's all about the site hits. Now if Carl had posted 'Southampton chairman resigns' not many would have bothered clicking onto the post as:

(a) We all knew anyway.
(b) Most people don't give a shit!

As it happens over 2100 have clicked on with 12 replies. Proving my point!

..........Sorry Carl!

The manager now would be mad to leave, to be doing so well and pushing in the top 8 of the Prem, could possibly get Europa League Football.

pathetic hit-chasing post.....why would we even be interested enough for this to be a sticky?

Owner Katharina Liebherr has installed herself as the non executive chairman.

Says she wants to reasuure players and manager and keep stability. Praps she should have done better to keep him there ...

Good read if anyone is interested.

"Then the 45-year-old focused on the environment. Now, when Southampton travel away from home, the hotel is often booked for two nights rather than one. On the first night, club staff arrive and clean the already pristine rooms. They vacuum up every particle of dust that might cause illness or carry a bug.

Then bespoke mattresses are placed on each bed, tailored to each player. The duvets, the pillow cases and the sheets are washed and ironed by the club, using the same washing powder and the same methods. Wherever the players are, their bed smells and feels the same.

The same applies to food, with the club chef travelling ahead of the squad to each and every hotel. Marginal gains were everything to Cortese.

On the field, the whole team, rather than just the defence and goalkeeper, were awarded clean sheet bonuses in order to promote a team ethic, rather than any division."
