Sean St Ledger - cried when he signed for us

I know he played for his country & had a decent level but I would say he wasn't as good as Alan Ramage or Mick Baxter, TBH even Billy Ashcroft
 
He was a trier, and if there is one thing Boro fans love, its a technically challenged player who tries a lot.

Its our "go too" player type.
 
I interviewed St Ledger a couple of days after he signed and he did not hide how excited he was to be playing and learning from Gareth Southgate someone he really looked up to as a footballing defender, someone he would have possibly tried to model his style on. Obviously Southgate left very soon afterwards...
