I had it direct from Karl that he’d got Baptiste over something similar. His version was they were at the chairman’s summer jolly in Portugal when the Mansfield boss said he’d do the deal for £10k if Oyston tipped a fully clothed Ridsdale in the hotel pool. But Karl couldn’t lie straight in bed so I’d prefer the Baps version. Either way it shows what we all know that that sort didn’t give a fuck about the club and it was just a plaything to piss about with until they landed the serious money.
 
Good that. Thought Baps had a shocker in the 2010 play offs tbf but great that he's made a career out of it and is still going.

If you can track down DJ Campbell and get him on a podcast that'd be good
 
I can just picture the water all being displaced by that big urchin's arse cheeks landing in the fountain.😳

Mind you Koko would jump in to a pool of alligators if it saved him a few quid 🥴

KO told Mosser and myself the same story when I had to attend a settlement meeting with him

I'd heard the same.
 
I always remember when we signed him.. I was like why have we signed a defender from a club who have just got relegated from football league, zero ambition..oh well.. shows what I know about football. Lol

Top guy and player for BFC

This is the version I had heard also.
 
Excellent interview! Baps is a top bloke.
It's great to hear players refer to their time with us as their highlight of their career. It wasn't just us, the fans, on the best trip! 👍

That's the version I heard. But as soon as I read this I now instantly believe Baptiste's version of events over that bellend.
