Locals not very happy. Our game against them is betwixt an away game at his old club Leeds and then at home to Leicester. I don’t think we’ll be seeing many regular first-teamers at St Mary’s.

Not bad is it. Get sacked by one club and probably get a couple of million severance. Then, quite possibly, get the same sort of wage you were on before.

It's madness. A manager gets sacked because his team is doing crap and is only just hovering above the relegation zone but then immediately gets employed by one of the few teams doing even worse!

I get that the young, upcoming manager route didn't work out for them with Jones, but this is an appointment with little apparent logic.

They might not even play the reserves, he'll might just play the kids as surely this really is just a distraction and a game Soton could do without.

Must say, all the ingredients are there for an upset. Obviously one materialising is quite another matter.

Bloody hell, we'll be favourites soon!










'I walked in the dressing room. The window was open and I thought that a sea fret had got in. Then I saw smoke billowing from a pipe in the corner of the room...it was my centre-forward. He looked seven stone wet through. He went on to score thirty-odd goals that season.' Lawrie McMenemy on encountering the legend that was Matt Tees.

Sometimes a manager's personality works with a different set of players. Also don't forget that Marsch saved Leeds last year when they were doomed. It's not totally without logic, but hopefully for us they don't get a bounce.

It’s interesting isn’t it. Southampton could probably get away with fielding a modestly weakened team and stand a good chance of beating us, but there’s certainly an argument that an FA Cup quarter final against a Premier League big gun, which would require the full deployment of their first team, is a game they really don’t need.

Winning the FA Cup, which would still be a long shot for them, would probably net them about £8m. Staying in the Prem meanwhile would be worth more than £80m. Genuinely makes you wonder if Marsch will be given the blessing of the So’ton board to play the yoof, doesn’t it?
