Heard a terrifying rumour that saints were interested in Felix penfold magatt for vacant managers post. Please god no. Haven't the board done enough to pee off supporters recently!

Before you belittle the guy check out his record. I for One would be happy to see him here. He had average players at Fulham playing some decent football towards the end. Also please tell me who could have saved Fulham.
Whoever the new manager is he will have my full support, until he proves himself or otherwise. just want the the board to get on with out
Southampton till I die

I'm with John on this one. Magath is a fine manager. The media had a fairly well coordinated campaign when he first arrived to discredit him, to create a controversy where there was none. Sure, he may not be a young, stylish, exciting young manager, but he's been around. Where this any other man who had won 3 Bundesliga titles and 2 DFB-Pokal's with Premier League experience to boot we'd be all over this. His time at Fulham tarred his name a bit, but he had extraordinary mitigating circumstances at Fulham and at good clubs and clubs striving to break through he has a great record. I'd definitely take him, if we can get him he's one of the best managers within our means at the moment. Unless these Frank De Boer rumours aren't just rubbish.

What frank de boer rumours? he's way out of our league

Any news on koeman rocket, my sources say we are least a week away from a manager.

Done deal mate

Rocket, who told you this and if it is a done deal, why wouldn't the club inform us about this? I don't believe if it true but I would love to be proved wrong.

7.) 05 Jun 2014
Hi ED will koeman be our boss? As his odds are drifting? ROckET when should koeman be confirmed then?

8.) 05 Jun 2014
They're just tieing up the loose ends lads. Takes a little while to get to a point where they can announce.

His son (Tim Koeman) has literally just started following saints on twitter. Check it out for yourself. No coincidence I can assure you

He is a dinosaur of a manager, completely wrong for both players and club. Big disciplinarian and won the league with bayern not really the hardest thing to do is it? His nickname is saddam and modern players won't relish his outdated methods.

10.) 06 Jun 2014
He also then went to Wolfsburg and won the league with them. That is an achievement. Koeman or McGath plus sides to both but I can't think of a single club where Mcgath hasn't ended up leaving on bad terms no matter how well he has done with that particular club, bit like Mourinho in that respect.

11.) 06 Jun 2014
So ROCKET when do u think it will be announced? Could he bring pelle with him.?

12.) 06 Jun 2014
I hope you have more to go on then his son following us on twitter! But genuinely hope it's true as he would be a great manager for us

13.) 06 Jun 2014
Part of the negotiation was that he assured the board that he would bring Pelle. i'm unsure though if the board will take up that offer.

The deal is done & dusted,

It will be announced by next Friday at the latest.

This is due to the fact that once the players are on int duty, they can not negotiate or discuss transfers.

This gives the board approx a month to work with the manager on outs & ins. And a chance for him to be well prepared when they return

Its still thought that Shaw & Lallana will go, but this clever bit of timing will give the club the best possible shot at retaining the players the manager wants to keep

14.) 06 Jun 2014
Ok I hope your right ROCKET, but surely we're be signing a striker? Could we see anyone else from his former club join?

15.) 06 Jun 2014
If rocket is who I think he is from old forums then he could well be right!

16.) 06 Jun 2014
Was he reliable then gregg01f? Could anyone else be joining from his former club then ROCKET? Also so 100% he will sign?

17.) 06 Jun 2014
Yeah i'd say 100% as he's already signed.

18.) 06 Jun 2014
Rocket, his sons also following spurs on twitter dose that mean he's going there too

19.) 06 Jun 2014
Yes he was reliable if the same person. My knowledge from within is that the manager situation is not resolved but I feel calmer after reading rockets note.

20.) 06 Jun 2014
Rocket never said it was simply because his son is following saints he was pointing it out.

21.) 09 Jun 2014
Hi ED is koeman having talks this week? ROCKET so you'd expect it to be announced this week? Could u see pelle joining.?
