Meanwhile Streeting makes his first big speech of the shadow contest, he says leaving the EU was 'catastrophic mistake' and says the UK 'one day' ought to be back in the bloc

@DanSFC94 And what’s wrong with hull been promoted?

Genuinely quite baffled by this. They wouldn’t gain anything from it. If we end up getting kicked out the only sensible solution is to give promotion to Hull. #SaintsFC

@SaintsDanSFC As a Boro fan I’ll be delighted if they just promote Hull.

I hope they don't take our place though, I hope Hull City are promoted to the Premier League and that's the end of it. They can't get their own way because they lost over two legs of football. You lost end of... #SaintsFC

@SaintsDanSFC Why’s that Danny? Because we play by the rules?

I'm very slowly starting to hate Middlesbrough FC on the same level as I hate Portsmouth Football Club. #SaintsFC

@saintlavoo Or they want saints punished? And hull go up? That’s fair enough isn’t it?

They want a free pass. You lost over two legs after dominating the first. Move on. #SaintsFC #UTB

@Sawyertuide9257 @slbsn Well the premier league will want Southampton to go up, it saves the £m on parachute payments

@MattyCarter1984 @slbsn Again, they’re not cancelling their moneymaker. And I think the EFL wants Soton to go up so they don’t have to deal with it

I've literally got Boro fans trying to argue that Boro mean Southampton should be thrown out but DO NOT mean Boro should play in the final. I am happy to accept I jumped to a wrong impression and that Boro believe someone else should play in the final instead 🤪

@OpTic_MH Hull can be promoted for me! Aslong as the cheats are stopped !!

Brutal statement from Boro. They seem beyond determined to stop Southampton playing in the final. My question is, is it their intention to play in the final? #hcafc #boro

@SamMFCx @slbsn Put Hull up I say

@slbsn Which part says Middlesbrough should take their place?

They can say what they like but it isn't really true that the only appropriate outcome is to let Boro go through. Sabre rattling.

@SkySports_Keith I’d be happy if they put Hull straight up to the premier league…. Not even bothered about the Boro having the chance, more about Southampton not getting away with cheating/trying to cheat.

🚨 BREAKING: Middlesbrough call for Southampton to be banned from competing in the Championship play-off final: CLUB STATEMENT: 🗣️ “The conduct at issue, namely the observation and recording of our training session ahead of a fixture of such significance, goes to the heart of sporting integrity and fair competition. 🗣️ “In these circumstances, the only appropriate response is a sporting sanction which would prevent Southampton FC from participating in the EFL Championship play-off final.   🗣️ “We remain hopeful that the EFL, as regulator, will pursue such a sanction before the Disciplinary Commission in order to protect the integrity of the game, safeguard all member clubs, and deter any attempt in the future to obtain an unfair and unlawful advantage in pursuit of promotion to the Premier League.”

@TheFUTSBC @charliewring1 10% 🤣🤣🤣

@charliewring1 Brother… legally its an absolute minefield if the EFL choose the nuclear option There’s less than a 10% chance we do not play the final

Again, don’t want to sound like a conspiracy theorist but SURELY the media team would be told to keep quiet if a decision had not been made behind the scenes? #SaintsFC

@charliewring1 A genius ??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I don't care about the narrative being pushed on Tonda Eckert, he is my favourite manager since Poch and nothing will change that. The bloke is a genius. Viva la Tonda. #SaintsFC

@AdamCrafton_ @CallumNeeter That can see Hackney not training. Us training in a back 3, and our set pieces. What don’t you understand. Why’s he there if he’s not getting anything useful? Why risk it?

@CallumNeeter It’s a great story, a great row but it’s a fella with an iPhone 😂

@AdamCrafton_ I think you’ve lost the plot Adam. Fine then and move on, sets a precedent, and the wrong one. It’s cheating.

@StuartJones7 If he wasn’t getting any useful information, then what an earth is he doing there?

Well done #boro comms team convincing half the world that a nerd behind a tree 200m away can have a big impact on 210 minutes of football. 🤪 Same as us using our Academy U18 players and ball boys then not giving the ball back. Small margins - not £200m fines 😂🕵️. #SaintsFC

@BroadcastMoose @brucemillington He would know Hackney wasn’t fit for 1. You could see we were training in a back 3. Could see what we were practicing in set pieces. It’s cheating and against the rules. Not sure what you aren’t getting!

@brucemillington If they were going to gain so little out of it. Why do it? The risk isn’t worth the reward?

This Southampton spying thing is total nonsense. They sent a kid up to film a Boro training session on his phone. So what? How much could they possibly find out from this? If Saints get chucked out it’s a complete joke.

@SkyFootball Slimy twat!

Tonda Eckert reacts to Southampton being charged with a breach of EFL regulations after a member of staff was alleged to have spied on Middlesbrough's training 💭

@Keir_Starmer 🤡🤡

Together, we will build a stronger and fairer Britain.

@darrenpjones @Keir_Starmer 🤡🤡

The election results today have clearly been tough for Labour. I’m sorry that we’ve lost so many brilliant Labour colleagues across the country, and thank them for their service. And I’m sorry that so many voters felt unable to vote Labour at these elections. @Keir_Starmer has taken responsibility and committed all of us to delivering on the mandate the country gave us at the last election. The Labour Party shouldn’t waste a minute of the time we’ve been given to get on with that job. If we turn inwards the public will think we’re walking away from that challenge. The next election will have unity or division on the ballot. A Britain built for all, or a Britain for the few. Britain is at its best when we come together and rise to the challenges of our time. And Labour is at its best when our values of equality, collectivism and unity power our project for the British people. We can deliver a better Britain in the years ahead and beat the prospect of division at the next election, but only if we come together, get on with the job and face the future.

@RachelReevesMP 🤡🤡🤡

These are tough election results for Labour and I’m sorry to all of those colleagues who have lost their seats. Keir Starmer won a mandate to change our country. We must get on with delivering that mandate - and show how politics can improve people’s lives for the better.
