@simonhartas What proof do you have of this claim prior to the hearing taking place?
English
We can't stop the frenzy, but we can slow it down.
Only one verdict matters - the one from the panel. They have the evidence, all anyone else has is speculation and spin.
This doesn't count for Alfie. We like Alfie. #saintsfc

Middlesbrough have apparently asked if the hearing can be held in North Korea so that the death penalty is on the table

🚨 Middlesbrough have asked the panel if they can participate in the Spygate hearing — ordinarily, an interested party can only make written submissions — if granted, it would be highly unusual & could create more tension with Southampton #saintsfc @TheAthleticFC
English
Thought the #Saintsfc initial spy thing was embarrassing enough but the boro reaction is becoming a real embarrassment - desperate attempt to get themselves into the play offs after bottling automatic #desperate

Wouldn’t have to kick us out the playoffs if you were better at football #SaintsFC

Went from 2nd (for ages) to 5th!
Beaten over 210 mins.
Didn’t buy a striker.
Can’t convert chances.
SFC have accepted the charge and are attending the Independent Review.
But apparently in ‘intern’ with an iPhone is to blame bcos they didn’t make the Prem?
😂😂
Match of the Day@BBCMOTD
Middlesbrough are demanding that Southampton are kicked out of the Championship play-offs over spying allegations.

#Boro well & truly scraping off the bottom of the barrel here!
Keep crying smoggys!!

It really does scream of desperation doesn't it. #SaintsFC

@Funkyhound Elephant in room? How about caught cheating twats who disgrace the great game of football.
English
The elephant in the room is that on Tuesday Boro could have won if they carried on playing. They scored early, rocked the ground but instead of playing football they decided to waste time, moan constantly at the ref, tried to rattle our players and sat back. #saintsfc
English
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

🚨 Middlesbrough are ‘furious’ that they will not be allowed to directly present evidence to the Independent Disciplinary Commission hearing the Spygate case #saintsfc @TimesSport
English
This has all been very convenient for Gibson and Hellberg. Completely distracting from their complete bottling of automatic promotion and then bottling the play offs. There should have been serious questions asked, but they’ve played a PR blinder and Boro fans falling for it 😂
English
@saintsfcmemes Or that u got 12 points in the premier last year. #superteammyarse
English
Whatever the outcome in spygate don’t let it distract from the fact that Boro completely bottled promotion this year. Choke job FC.
English
I’m getting bored of this now. Just let the independent panel do their job with evidence from both sides and then go from there. Statements and leaking biys to the press is just silly now. Should have battered us in the first leg and didn’t shite in the second simples #Saintsfc

Bauser being ‘in people’s ears’ and ‘involved’ despite a clear conflict of interest according to this well placed #Boro fan. Interesting take for the bastions of integrity. Couldn’t make it up 😂

Tom O'Neill@Tomoneill84
@papp_cs @YasWWFC @slbsn Oh he’ll have been involved. He’s 2nd in command isn’t he? Gave out medals at the last play off final. If people think he’s not been in people’s ears they’re just naive.
English
Is this not just a bit ridiculous now? Surely it’s just a fine like Leeds.

BREAKING: Middlesbrough say Southampton should not take part in Championship play-off final after being charged with spying ahead of semi-final first leg between clubs.
English
Southampton say they should, but even if they get kicked out, Boro shouldn't be anywhere near it.
Hull promoted on merit

Gibson throwing his toys out the pram again.
Original spygate Leeds v Derby is the precedent. Should be a slap on the wrist like it was for Leeds
They did all that and we still battered em 4-2 in their own back yard. Win your football battles and it doesnt matter lads.

A statement from the club.
English
That is one salty statement.
They lost fair & square as a result of their inability to even get a shot off let alone score.
It has didly squat to do with some young lad stood next to a tree in some baggy jeans with an iPhone.
Why should they be at the hearing?
Move on
