Could this be a turning point for them like when Girls Aloud sacked Louis Walsh?

I guess it depends who they can get in to replace their old manager...

I think it comes from Popjustice/GAM

But if you look at their twitter's they don't mention one another anymore. I mean their manager hasn't said anything about missing you

I wonder when they sacked him/her, because their songs are still shite.

This could be good news for them, but they should have done it after the Wordshaker fiasco. With Girls Aloud out of the picture and the Sugababes floundering, this should be The Saturdays' time, but if anything instead of moving forward, they've moved backwards with each release. It's time to take some time out, get some press and start releasing some catchy pop music.

Me thinks they've been reading Digital Spy and taken our advice Srsly.

Boo for me though as I wanted them to be dropped ones, not the drop-ers!

Is that the Jayne woman? That used to do all their flips for the website?

Janynecollinsmac or something on Twitter. I had noticed she'd stopped tweeting about the girls and tweeting the girls directly, too. Same with the girls tweeting her. This Jayne woman manages The Wanted now, don't they?

Hopefully this sacking will work to their benefit!

Agreed, they really need someone with a bit of marketing knowledge/experience.

Definately! She's worked wonders for GA and Cheryl. Hopefully they ask her?

I don't think she has the time to be honest, Cheryl is quite a big person to manage as it is, plus she still looks after all the other girls (bar Nadine)

They jsut need someone as good as her (or better)

Found this on Popjustice:



Just looked on Twitter and Rochelle tweeted "RochelleTheSats Listening to my sister @vanessawhite on Radio 1 introducing our new single #missingyou woo sounding good!! Go girl!! X ". After that Glee were up, and Jayne (their ex-manager?) tweeted "Jaynecollinsmac Glee sounding good!"

Ooohhh bitchy!
Am I being dumb because I'm not really seeing the bitchiness in that comment much?

I'm assuming the "bitchy" bit being ignoring the Saturday's new single (and making it clear she was ignoring it)

I think the saturdays are just a complete copy of girls aloud, but a not as good a version.

Well this could be good for them, and I hope it is. I like The Saturdays, but they have been very unfortunate with a lot of their releases so hopefully this will be a change for the better. They have some decent pop songs, not ground breaking by any means, but enjoyable - it would be a shame for their label to drop them although I can see it going that way if their sales don't improve - and hopefully this issue will be resolved with a new manager.

Bit above their station isn't it, they're a tweeny girls group and markets themselves (that's right they do, not the managers) as sluts in skimpy outfits and little to no brains between them.
