Not sure Russell Martin getting sacked after the Spurs game was glaringly obvious after it happened. It was obvious at 5-0.

He could have lurked for 19 years. That was my first thought, as there are a lot of people who definitely genuinely do that.

My first thought was that he's an alt for Glasgow, NGL.

How can a player change their mind after a deal is done (i.e. contract signed)... Unless by "done" you meant "almost done" rather than actually done...?

Deal agreed with other club, contract agreed & medical done, literally changed his mind 5 mins before signing the contract

Yes that's why I said unlikely to be them. I can't think of many itk people who acted like MB does unless it is thevman (which given that Lallana is back in the club in some capacity would make sense.)

Not a chance am I ITK but I received a message from someone last night that knows a certain person at the upper end of the club and he has given him the nod that there will be an announcement on Thursday and that it is only a fine that Tonda will get with no ban.

Don't shoot the messenger as things could of course change between now and then, with the way that this whole debacle has gone on but my man was quietly confident albeit, until that announcement is made nothing is 100% guaranteed.

I'd be amazed if he escaped a ban - even a touchline ban - but appreciate the information.

Could conceivably be a fine with a suspended ban?

[Pamplemousse]

It could explain the holdup in announcing it. The Disciplinary Panel were quite lenient and the FA appealed because they wanted a tougher sanction.

I see you've been ITK about our kit designs in the past, so I'm prematurely celebrating.

Why do all the things you say are happening eventually involve a change of plan?

[Fabrice29]

Not a chance the club would be posting Tonda images at the training ground if they'd been informed of a football wide ban, even if it was on appeal. Reckon the official line that the club have no idea is probably still the most likely as of 10am this morning.

I'd take that, all day long. But that would mean the wait has been the punishment. And I can't see them letting us off with that, because it will soon be forgotten. There has to be more, to set the example they clearly want.

Would love this to be true, mainly for the amount of piss it would boil.

Such a shame we are stuck with a manager that can’t win away matches.

I would be more circumspect but this has all the hallmarks of one of those Paul Allen takeover era pranks that everyone else seemed to be part of but me. All that "next Friday" bollocks and cryptic bullshit. I'll take it with a pinch of salt and move on.

 

EDIT - thanks for the anonymous DM, wow that changes everything. I stand corrected.

Tonda does not deserve a lengthy ban that could ruin his career. Good luck

This is going to be joyous if it's just a fine and/or suspended ban. I fear for the welfare and mental health of anyone living in Teeside...
