I have been saying for some time that Ronald Kooman is a unhappy manager, and If the report in the Mirror is factual Ronald Kooman should be sacked with immediate effect, you can't have a manager who demands 100% commitment from his players and openly criticizes them when they throw their dummies out of the pram having had their heads turned by so called bigger clubs, then tout for a job with another club openly on the radio and expect to keep the support of the dressing room . I genuinely hope that its not true but with RK body language and his comments regarding the clubs transfer policy and the standard of the academy players I just don't know.

You have been spouting a load of bile for a long time.

When has any report in the Mirror been correct, about Saints?

How are the academy teams doing this season? So, is RoKo wrong?

I would recommend Gaviscon,

Koeman was joking, it was only the tabloids making a big deal out of it. It looks more likley that he would move in the summer. I doubt that he will move away in 2016 though.

IN reply to Saint Martin

I would only say that if he had taken the time to read the post He would have noticed that I quantified my post with the beginning if the report is factual,

If Saint Martin believes that RK was a happy manager, through the December with his comments about the progression of the academy players, the team performances, also the players attitude to the clubs transfer policy, the downward spiral in their league position, he must be seriously deluded.

I don't confess to be a expert in body language but you didn't need to be to see he was having serious doubts about the clubs ambition especially as he was thinking about a new contract negotiations in the summer.

Why do you think it OK that RoKo has to waste his time telling the media such reports are "b****t"? Has he not got better things to do than explain to those who are totally gullible?

I would be surprised if he was NOT worried about the current "crop" at the academy, the recent performance of the first team and the attitude of certain players over the last few weeks. We have a manager who takes time and care to be open with supporters and the media-a rarity these days. Give the guy a break and believe what he says rather than what the media want him to say to sell a few more papers.

And why say "he was thinking about new contract negotiations in the summer". You are simply speculating. He knows when contract negotiations are due to take place, his own and some of his players. I doubt he will be spending too much energy considering his own so far in advance. A lot can change in 4-6 months, and during that time he has stated he wants to achieve Europa Cup qualification again. I think that is what he will be thinking about, and depending on how that goes then the summer could be adjusted accordingly.
