37 year-old Georges Santos who's been recently released from non-league Farsley Celtic is currently on trial at Scumdee.

Santos was one of three Sheffield United players sent off in the notorious Battle of Bramall Lane, a match against his former club West Brom that was abandoned with United down to six players. The match turned truly ugly in the 65th minute, when Georges Santos, whom United had just brought on seconds earlier, was sent off for a two-footed sliding tackle on Andy Johnson. Santos never played for Sheffield United again.

Obviously just the sort of player King-Knuckledragger Rae wants to reflect in his "youthful" and "good footballing" philosophy.

Has been mentioned in other threads.

Does it really need a new thread of it's own??

I hadn't heard so yes, yes it does.

And to be honest I wouldn't expect anything else from a club that employs Alex Rae as chief in command.

The more thugs and hatchet men we can get in the better.

Comin from a supporter of a team that had both DE -Vos and Kevin McDonald delibrtly hatchet caballero - and end his career.....

wheres mcdonald now!!!!!

rest my case!

DAB

Some people don't care who Dundee are desperately breaking the bank over this week, but they would care if they knew it was Georges Santos
The guy is a disgrace to football.

as for old, was stanic not like 48 playing for the fermers!??!?!?

Santos - touch of grit that wee need!

Apparently George had a bit of previous with Mr Johnson, and West Brom were his previous club. According to my sources Santos 'got the ball' but being 6' 4'' and 14 stone it looked much worse than it was - a bit like Mr Rae's Champions League incident when he was clearly going for the ball.
My blades source says GS played center midfield for them, is a pretty good passer and that you never got bullied with him in your team.
We have got to do whatever is necessary to get out of this league and I would make no apologies if this means getting down and dirty.
By the way a bit of discussion on the official site this morning - what was the name of the arab butcher, or should I say butchers because if memory serves we well Jason de Vos had a go at him as well, who effectively ended the career of Fabian Cabellero? On of the most naturally gifted players ever to grace the SPL until that terrible tackle.

Derek McInnes scored an absolute pearler in that game and then one of the United players stuck the head on him!

Battle of Bramall Lane

He was 34 at the start of last season!




Wind up, right?

Fifespud, watch the replay on the video Radford's posted and then tell me Santos won the ball. As for Rae, he clearly booted the opposition player in the head in frustration.

0.40 - got the ball min

SU v WB

EDIT: Sorry didn't see Radford already posted it.

Watch the replay. He clearly went over the ball.

Aye. yer probably right.

nobody got that game on video - when cabs career more or less ended? Never seen a dundee team look so brilliant as they did that nght......

It is going to be so amusing when the greengrocer and his family stop pumping money into you lot.
I cant wait.
So who else would you ban for life?
Alec Rae
Roy Keane
Eric Cantona

No!
Well Ok yes!!!!

like to see hm got through innes !

Miles doesn't support anyone FS. He changes his team to whatever will annoy the team he is trying to annoy. At this moment in time - us!

Defend the indefensible.

Who?

Ha Ha I've been looking for that.

Funny? For the record, I thought it was hilarious when Caballero was crocked.

De Vos got the ball.

I wish somebody would kick you right in the pus.

Just watched it - definitely got the ball! Or maybe balls!
You have to admit the next time you faced him you would be a bit cautious.
Come on Sainties, Queens, Thistle - fancy facing Georgie Boy?

I might be mistaken, but I thought Caballero was playing for a team in Chile. I think the fact he was a fat bastard when last sighted has more to do with his slide down the footballing scale.

Cabellero's career was never ended it may have hindered his career but he's still playing. At the moment he's playing at the top level of Chilean football with Provincial Osorno.

Feel free, hard man.


An ancient crock in the centre of midfield? Yes please. I'm sure we'll all be worried about the prospect of coming up against Dundee if big Jim Lauchlan's playing behind him, too.

Put it this way, if he put in another challenge like that we wouldn't have to worry about facing him for a while.

That's because you're scum.

I meant ha ha as in "ha ha I've finally found it"

Suuuuuuuure you did.

Maybe this was the big signing Dangerous Dave was banging on about. A casual browse at this board confirms the majority of Dundee fans that post here are full-blown idiots, so I don't think it's a stretch of the imagination to think Dave would have thought the word 'Celtic' would be enough to get the morons frothing at the mouth.

To be fair most 'commited' players have a few tackles in their careers they wont be proud of when looking back over things. Maybe Alec feels that way about this incident, maybe not - maybe he was, or has convinced himself that, he was going for the ball.
Nobody was seriously injured in the Battle of Bramall Lane - had there been - I wouldn't be joking about it like this.
I have never celebrated a player getting a career threatening injury. Having seen Duffy crocked and Lee Wilkie twice crocked it is nothin to crow about.
I felt sick at Tannadice when Billy McKinlay broke his leg.
You should apologise for that Fabian remark before it becomes a permanent stain on your P and B reputation.

I did. Me and a Dundee supporting work colleague were talking about it the other week and we wondered if it was as bad as we remembered.

I tried searching for 'Rae kick' and all that but couldn't find it.

I remember the same colleague sending me a text the night it happened saying simply "SCUM".

I think any rational P&B user knows I was taking the piss. If you and the rest of Dundee's legion of twats can't grasp that then I really couldn't give two fucks.

On Subject.....ahem....

He would be a quality signing if his fitness is good.....
He was never the quickest, but was hard as nails and could tackle like F*ck when at Tranmere....

I enjoyed watching him back then and was disappointed when he left.....

Nizzy I am sorry you feel that way. What have we done to deserve this vitriol. Sure there are some twats in the Dundee support - does it have to get so personal?

There are some topics beyond the pale - which you should not take the piss out of.
You are disrespecting yourself and if you dont give two f's that's up to you.

A bit harsh

Anyway I think MB will be in a full w**k fury at the carnage he has caused. Starts the thread and sits back to admire his handywork.

Well done that man.

Best of luck with him if this major coup comes off for you, lads. He was last seen with the world famous Farsley Celtic, and before that the legendary Alfreton Town. And at 37, I suspect that up against the likes of Martin Hardie, Jody Morris, or any player from Clyde, he'll be completely lost.

Surely Jody Morris should be banned for life as well!

For what it's worth I think Dundee, you guys, Thistle, QOS, DAFC, or even Livvy could win this league. Despite what has been said in the 2 Macs we have an incredible strike force, the likes of which we haven't had since the Cobra and the Mongoose (although at 1st Division level) and hey could take us a long way to the title if they stay fit and not suspended.
Battle commencing soon - cant wait.

Highlights Hardie not injured again yet?

for what?

So lets get this straight. there are incidents in football that youre not prepared to make light of, yet youre prepared to make excuses for thugs like rae and santos and will welcome them and their down and dirty tricks into the dumbdee fold with open arms because you have to do whatever's necessary to escape this division?

Someone should kick your soapbox from out under you, you preaching pious prat.

you got the biggest dirty b*****d out of the lot as your profile picture!!

LMFAO

nothing wrong with a bit of dirt, but I actually think the tackle on Cab is the worst ive ever witnessed.....

Faced him before. Played for Kilmarnock against us in a pre-season friendly a few years ago. I think he scored actually.

Albeit only on trial, the question has to be asked whether or not this guy can improve a Dundee team that has lost much of its creativity in going forward. The ability of the defenders themselves being a side issue, are their any good young boys coming through the YTS? And will they get a chance this year?

Firstly, I think it is hilarious how you think by cleverly calling Dundee, Scumdee you actually think you are being big / clever.

Has it not occured to you that you also are from Dundee so therefore any derogatory comments are also associated against your own team

Secondaly, it would be a great signing. Oh diddums he has been sent off in his career. Get a grip pal.

Why do you want to know what your squad will be in 2011/2012??

Found it. 2002 at Palmerston

He scored twice in fact!
