Jason Wilcox going to Southampton

[Alfie Budd]

Why would you leave City for Southampton?

Director of football is a significant step up from his role at City. Admittedly it’s at a club that looks to be on a downward spiral but he probably looks at it as a stepping stone to better things.
He probably thought he’d reached the glass ceiling at City.

he'll be at Chelsea by the end of the month

Why would you leave City for Southampton?

Because he’s going from Academy director to Txiki’s level.

His first big decision is when to sack the new manager.

The old Lawrie McMenemy joke doesn't work with Liverpool as that was the ship's home port.

Shame, think he's done a great job and always speaks well when interviewed.

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Shows that we must be doing things right if other clubs are constantly looking to employ our coaching staff.

Good luck to him.

Well we can’t improve job credentials here because we have people in those positions and it’s a big step up for him this job offer! Maybe in the future we could offer him the job here if and when those in that job leaves! Good luck to him..

Our staff retention in certain areas does raise questions - given our position and set up, buy hey, people move for all sorts of reasons..

Ambitious people wanting to test themselves in different situations is not so unusual imo
