I really dont understand what his advisors were thinking. In an ideal world he would have gone to the World Cup and scored two or three goals. That didnt happen and realistically under Steve Clarke was never going to. As it stands now a Championship or Scottish Premier League club may take a gamble on him but they hardly seem to be beating down his door .......but he would never be earning top dollar because of his injury record. The type of club who would look to sign him don't have big money to throw at a player with his injury record. The thinking behind it was stupid, he was playing, he was scoring and looking decent in a system and style that suited him......then his agent, and/or Ross himself just threw that away. Crazy

I’m still clinging to the firm belief if any of them do come good it’ll be Bereton Diaz, just based on his last two loans proving better than his time here.

Yes a friend told me the same with those FA Cup shirts from last season 😉

Yes and to quote Simon Jordan of all people, why would you shoot yourself in the foot by sacking a manger you obviously rate very highly?

A decent lawyer can string an appeal out for bloody ages, so yeah he could get banned but easily be in the dug out for months whilst it’s being dealt with.

Whilst we are jumping the gun a little here it’s a very interesting point. If they think Tonda is that good and the best man to lead us would they seek an interim manager for the duration of any possible ban? A Roy Hodgson type appointment that Bristol City made for instance (no I’m not saying bring Hodgson in before anyone jumps on it)?

Well that’s how you would hope a panel would view it, how much more does the collective have to suffer because of an individual? Slap him with a fine, some training courses and a suspended ban if you must but don’t make the players, fans and employees of SFC suffer anymore than they already have.

Yeah, racism is a different ball park to this though.

Because a 6 month ban on top of what the club had with the expulsion would be totally disproportionate……

If that’s a suspended sentence then it’s a possibility I suppose

Well this is precisely why Dragan has mentioned double jeopardy and why he will go big legally with an appeal should it be necessary.

Everything from a slap on the wrist through to a public execution at dawn in Middlesbrough next Friday !! 😉

What’s wrong with them ffs? Surely if he hadn’t been charged the EFL would have been in an awkward position legally so that was never happening

Can we please get a fkin ban on people posting “ChatGPT thinks this” ? Its totally irrelevant what a computer that searches the internet for what it thinks are corroborating facts comes up with !!

You certainly like running with an assumption don’t you? 🤣
