Mark Wotte became the first casualty of the takeover of Southampton by Markus Liebherr yesterday when he was sacked as head coach shortly after praising the new owner.

 

Interviewed by a local newspaper, Wotte said: “I met Mr Liebherr and his representative four weeks ago. Immediately I had a good feeling with them. He is exactly what we need for the long term.”

 

Whether or not the Dutchman feels the same today, the new regime hopes to appoint his replacement within a week. “Our decision is part of a wider strategic plan being implemented to improve all aspects of the club’s operations, both on and off the field,” a club statement read. “In keeping with this plan we can confirm that the search for a new manager has begun.”

 

Kevin Keegan, the club’s former forward, will head a list of the usual suspects. The Times also understands that Tony Adams and Micky Adams have been under consideration by the new team, which includes Andy Oldknow, a former commercial director of the club, who has been appointed chief operating officer.

Not to worry if he does get the gig. He's not wanted here. Apparently. Backward step and all that. Apparently. Mind you, I have to profess to being a salmon swimming against the tide in that respect.

Make that 2 salmon.

Monkeys Fish?
