Based on what @The Esk said this morning that we wanted a reply from Emery today and we were speaking to Koeman's agent then it looks like a knock back from Emery otherwise we'd have heard he's coming :(

That's the way it's looking to me, hope I'm wrong.
Good point, but I just feel if it was a no we would have heard about it, so to me it's still a maybe and they may just be finalising some details to make it work. Koeman is covering our bases.
 

Hate to bump my own post, but it appears that we have now sold 31k season tickets..
So me originally saying we have more ST holders than Saints have seats in their ground is nearly correct..

Not too tough a sell are we to a new manager.

Well, let's do this properly shall we? Since they're being so obstinate about it.

[QUOTE="Librarian, post: 4552940, member: 8871"]You could have a feeling either way, but it really is impossible to know which of the two would hit if off and get a bit of momentum leading to success. Lets just hope we get it right.[/QUOTE]

The Emery silence is sound imo. Nothing in the Spanish papers, nothing in our papers, just a radio silence as we near the end.

Koeman, once again, an Everton smokescreen.
Would love to think so but if Mole is correct Emery has turned it down and it looks like we are about to get Ronald :(
 
Difficult to say with much degree of clarity. A bit all over the shop at the minute, flicking between the Saville duo and Koeman. One thing for certain is that it's been entertaining.
