I'm still trying to deduce the significance (if any) of us not posting anything on social media about Ross Stewart's international call up... That's completely the opposite of what they usually do... Make of that what you will... The media team under instruction from up above not to post anything today...?

The person who posted about his ex-analyst friend several days ago, mentioned that the 'analyst community' was tight knit and most of them knew eachother... The same ex-analyst that said "most clubs do it and largely ignore the 72 hour rule" (paraphrasing).... ergo, it might not be that far fetched that he was recognised....?

Who?

Plot twist: Salt refused to go at first, telling whoever sent him there that it was wrong, but he was eventually 'bullied' into going, and he's submitted that as evidence to the enquiry, in response to the club submitting that they didn't instruct him to go...? Not one of my better conspiracy theories to be fair, and it's a pretty low bar! 😉

Yep... another 'tick' for the set-up theory...

Well, someone had to give it a go, but WTF is chatgpt smoking here...?!

Source?

Just as well I've got a new supply of "told you so" medals in stock, ready and waiting for the lucky smart arse(s)

I think we've been led to believe it's "all" of the football world...?

He's referring back to an article he wrote 4 days ago, which I think ties in with Boro's "throwing toys out of pram" press release?

Hmm... I think I've seen that foliage somewhere before on this thread.... #fullcircle (literally)

Same output as working for a national newspaper then...?

C&A?

Yeah... and their spelling deteriorated too... Edit: damn... Beaten to it... Difficult to keep up with this thread!

Source?

Probably nothing to read into this but, the club haven't put out a twitter or Facebook post* on this yet...usually they're all over an international call up like a rash on social media... Why not this time? Maybe they're just avoiding the flack that their tweets are attracting at the moment? (* They have published an OS article)

Even a seasoned conspiracy theory enthusiast such as myself would struggle to support that one... 😂

Named in the Scotland world cup squad. Congratulations Ross!

Yep... This does feel the way things are heading now...

Yep, I agree ... I was just repeating the alternative point of view, which some people seem to believe/ advocate

Isn't the prevailing argument on this one that the play offs are a separate competition to the league, so if someone was caught during the season doing it you would then have to set a new precident for that, rather than apply the precident being set for the play off competition in our case?

Too much information...

# change of mind ahoy klaxon #

Indeed, and that might help explain why the club are coming across as pretty relaxed about the whole thing on social media...?
