But why would an itk post as such?
This whole manager thing has got my head cabbaged as well but there's not a lot we can do about it, except wait.

If they put him on gardening leave they would be shooting themselves in the foot, since they'd be after the same managers as we would and we've proven we're the more attractive prospect.
 
I just had a quick look - what's the suggestion? That we would pay compensation, sign Koeman as manager in the knowledge he's going on gardening leave?

Please someone remind me when this has ever happened in football before? We're paying Southampton compensation for loss of their manager, that's it.
Stop talking sense!
 
Why would Koeman or any top manager sign a contract that contained a forced garden leave clause?

Surely it would all fall over in court anyway.

Makes no sense to me.
 

Come on lads lets get grip on reality here. If you put someone on gardening leave it effectively leaves you able to buy out the remainder of your contract. Therefore Soton would get even less for his last year of his contract than the reputed £5m. Aint gonna happen.
 
No idea mate and to be honest I'm not spending the rest of the say wondering about the motives of some guy on a Southampton forum.

More concerned whether the weather is going to spoil a Saturday afternoon at Lords.

Relax mate.
You based in London mate? Where?
