Yep, like nothing most of us have ever seen too... 🤦🏼

It begs the question...

Three steps ahead of who? 🤨

Ben Chorley.

Which probably explains why he's going!

[FredVaFC59100]

In April 2024, Ben Chorley stated in a video interview that "Joachim Kayi Sanda is the best CB in the world, I really believe that", then managed to sell it to SFC for 5 Me. 

The fact that he managed to remain in SR's org chart for 2 more years speaks volume about Rasmus vision.

Ben Wizard Chorley, thank you for invaluable contribution to Valenciennes FC success...NOT!

You got in before me Fred.

It's a bit of a blemish to even be mentioned in his leaving message, based on VA. 🙂

[SaintsLoyal]

He must of handed in his notice months ago and has hardly got a great CV

[LaptopSaint]

Huge loss

Norwich supporting mate says Chorley is on his way to them 🤷🏼‍♂️

Göztepe flirted with European qualification, arguably, had Ankersen been hands on at Southampton, there may have been someone in the club structure to tell Spors / Eckert (or whoever that was involved) that spying wasn't allowed

Fingers crossed he signed an NDA then...

Great. Another spying charge coming our way.

Wow. That's interesting.

Guessing he remains part of SR though?

Magnificent news.

Thought that meant we'd seen the last of him but apparently not 

[CSA96]

Just some overdue housekeeping apparently - retains his shares in Sport Republic but doesn't have an operational role at Saints anymore (and for a while now)

Fine with that. Just so long as he has no hands-on involvement with our club.

If he was going to resign anyway why didnt he just say the spying was all his idea and take the rap before moving on , no one will care in Turkey 

[Football Special]

Which transfer window was it that Rasmus personally took charge of? January 2023? 

Hopefully this change will free up some time for him to write more books about breaking things

I note Goztepe now bottom of the league as he continues to find new ways of breaking things
