@LewisThompson7 Well if the club was that serious about it all they’d refuse to play whatever the charge.
No, played both and didn’t have the legs for it.

@AdamSaintJames1 Because we would get penalised by the EFL for not fulfilling a fixture, easy one that

Spot on from the club this, this has nothing to do with how the games played out, matters on the pitch, any advantage, it is simply cheating and breaking the rules, has to set a precedent, so that the risk isn't worth the reward, only way you achieve that, is kicking Saints out

Scruffy, horrible piece of work. On par with Hitler

Taylor Harwood-Bellis actually seems like a nasty piece of work doesn’t he?

@chazaustin10 @playnimbusapp Ain’t you the bloke who had a rant over a ref?

Saints fans can come at me all they want… but nobody can defend this behaviour.

Genuinely, if you give Southampton a £1M fine, watch nearly every team in the EFL take their chance knowing how much the reward is for promotion 😅

🚨🤓 Southampton Spygate personal view: 1. Expect the breaches will be straightforward to establish (ie liability) and almost certainly admitted to try and get some sanction credit/discount 2. Expect aggravating factors such as other examples of Soton spying this year to be raised 3. Fundamental question of how serious a breach of rule 127 and good faith is will be key. We know good faith alone was £200k in the Leeds case. The new rule makes it worse and spying obviously seeks a sporting advantage - why else do it? So that does point to sporting sanction of some sort 4. Being thrown out of the Play Offs appears excessive especially given Southampton finished 7 points clear of 6th and 9 clear of 7th 5. A 3-0 in the first leg would have been an option again excessive retrospectively unless 2nd leg re-playable (not feasible) 6. More likely sanction is points deduction next season in the Championship as much as that won't help Middlesboro 7. Unlikely that the PL will take a points deduction recommendation from the EFL (no fixed rule) - doubt EFL will push for it, so would apply in first season back in Championship (when and if) 8. My best guess is SIX EFL points in first season in EFL and £500k-£1m fine 9. Boro compensation claim can be dealt with separately subject to any claim brought by Boro - difficult claim to establish due to causation issues

@WayneEveri75947 @SaintsExtra @LukeEdwardsTele True, championship best league going. Not fussed either way. Hull good side also be a tough game.
If this was all the other way round I’d still find it all funny. Grown men actually crying about some lad with an iPhone taking a couple snaps.
End of it Boro wasn’t good enough

🚨 Middlesbrough sources are ‘confident they have built up a compelling argument’ for Southampton to be removed from the play-offs #saintsfc @LukeEdwardsTele

@AdamSaintJames1 @SaintsExtra @LukeEdwardsTele Wrong.
They threw there paddy on May 7th , 2 days before the first leg.
I suggest you start looking for hotels in Bolton or Stockport , because you ain't going anywhere next season 👍👍
English
@HuntyDJH @lillmatty90 Did you watch the first leg? Boro should have killed the two legs off in the first half. If they did, all this would be bushed under the carpet.
English
@lillmatty90 Also, Imagine this.
Imagine if Millwall was spying on us after the first leg, seeing us set up 5 at the back, do you think Millwall would have set up differently?
I 100% think they would done.
That’s what Saints could have done for Boro.

@sarahfinn8 We’re throw what we want. We are Southampton, we’re throw what we want.

@upthesaints14 @CarlDraper98 He’s a ref as well. You know he’s a prick then

All options are on the table, and that does include the final against Southampton (as it stands) being moved from next Saturday. Wild situation, and fast-moving. #hcafc

@KelvinLeGod1986 @robbieHCAFC @priv_756 They can’t afford the trip down south now already seen loads of messages crying about the train prices.
Up the saints

@robbieHCAFC @priv_756 Will Hull sell more than 20k tickets? Tinpot club.

@hcafctils I’m going to book up every hotel in the area to bump the price up.

I couldn’t have articulated this better myself, 💯 spot on.

"100% they should be thrown out." Gab Marcotti says Southampton be thrown out of playoff final for spying on Middlesbrough.
English
Southampton really are the scummiest of the scum, that’s disgusting, disrespectful. I hope they get done or I hope Hull absolutely smash them. Their manager, most punchable face.
Second Tier podcast@secondtierpod
Okay, it will be really funny if Southampton do get kicked out of the play-offs after this 😂
English
@smorgy13 A few are saying this & I get the logic but Boro (if it’s found to be the case) were disadvantaged by Southampton spying on them I can’t see how we could be compensated ahead of them. I’d love it but just can’t see how that would be the outcome
English
It’s a complete & utter disgrace how this is all being handled
Feel sorry for the 3 teams involved still with a stake in this final, yes I’d love to include #Millwall but let’s be honest, we haven’t got a leg to stand on with all this.
For me, it should be Boro v Hull. Simple
