Also snagging Peretz for a good price might mean we lower the asking price for Ramsdale, attracting more buyers etc

I have long thought Steve should do a “best of SaintsWeb” segment on TSP. every episode he could share the the most embarrassing prediction, the most disproportionate insult, the most petty argument unrelated to the thread title or perhaps “Turkish’ Tips”, a simple recap of all your conversation defining contributions?

love him. fuck boro, fuck the EFL, give him a contract for life.

Highly recommend "Soccer Guy" on Facebook (and probably other places). Very funny. Summary of recent events: "Mac Birdie pays tribute to Brandi Chastain after his overtime goalshot sends the Hullcinatti Bengals to the EPL League after handing the L to the Middles Burgers at Wembley Arena. The Burgers weren’t even supposed to be soccering in this game after they got their asses handed back to them with fries on the side by the Southside Saints in their two-game series. It later transpirized that the Saints had sinned by sending some guy to their soccer practise to go hide in the locker rooms and take pictures of their guys’ butts to blackmail them into losing at soccer or something and everyone got kinda mad about it so they got kicked out of it. Anyway, the sheets in this one went unstained until after the overtime verdict tablet, when the goaltender messed up when he muffled a cross pass inside his danger box zone. It fell at the cleats of Mac Birdie, who inserted real good. Taking off his Bengals jersey, he could be seen mouthing the words ‘for you, Brandi,’ as he pointed to the sky, which is kinda weird as she’s not even dead. The striped cat franchise will now look forward to being EPL Freshmen next semester and, even though they’ll probably go get their butts kicked a bunch of times, their players will hope that playing soccer there will give them a shot at earning a move to MLS in the future."

There's actually 7 stages - shock first, and hope last. Not sure what stage i'm at but I'm a long way from hope. Anyway, isn't depression the de facto for us?

probably more enjoyable than the last week

Well, we can't even cheat properly so I don't know why I expected us to be competent in defending and appealing the charges. The biggest shame for me as it appeared for the first time in a long time we had a really good spine of a team for a few seasons to come. Our players will want to get as far away from this mess as quickly as they can, and who would blame them? Embarrassing at every level.

it was just a gag eggy

i think it would be funny to ignore the niceties around the evidence gathering process when the hearing is about breaching the niceties around our on field evidence gathering process 😆

Think Dragan’s net worth is about 100 times higher too, you’d think he can afford to keep the whinging prick bogged down in legal administration for the next 100 years.

this is honestly a hall-of-famer for me. so good.

what if you're standing somewhat behind but mostly next to a tree in middlesbrough waving your willy about and the club photographer snaps you from across the other side of the training pitch, then leaks it to the press? This is important - next time, if our Salty spy spies in the nude do we have a stronger defence?

Surely this is all Eric Black’s fault

Thanks for the leg work. This is great. These simple shots and video really undermine the outrage of our Boro friends. You would think a video taken from that spot, at full zoom on an iPhone takes a fair bit of the sting out of the "surveillance equipment" claims. PS email this to the club, they might pay you to be their next spy

Definitely would have had Manning in early, he takes and scores free kicks from a lot further out than the penalty spot
