The supervisor of Rishi Sunak’s favorite soccer workforce has delivered a brutal snub to the prime minister.
Sunak was on the St. Mary’s Stadium yesterday to cheer on Southampton as they beat Plymouth Argyle 2-1.
However talking afterwards, Southampton boss Russell Martin stated he had “no curiosity” in assembly the PM.
Sunak has usually spoken about his love for the Saints, who’re presently third within the Championship.
He was pictured being greeted by fellow supporters at yesterday’s match.
In his post-match interview, Martin was requested if the prime minister had come down to fulfill the workforce after the sport.
The supervisor replied: “He might need come down, I’ve received little interest in saying ‘hiya sir’. How’s that for honesty?”
Martin was praised on social media for his feedback.
One consumer on X (previously Twitter) described him as “an absolute legend”.
