Southampton spying compendium thread

[The Beautiful Game]

Hull fans will have booked for this weekend so that would have been unfair to them

This is unfair to them too like

That…is f***ing funny

Makes you think though.

Oxford mentioned as 1 of the 3 teams and were relegated - they will be looking to challenge the drop I expect or some coin off the Spies

It's a can of worms if there are any other proven cases. I suspect the EFL will be happy not to investigate it any further.

Not least, someone like Wrexham who may have had a chance at promotion if Southampton gained sufficient points from cheating.

 

[Horley Chorley]

Inevitable that Boro lose now mind

I hope you're right, but having been given a 2nd chance, I wouldn't be surprised if they made the most of it.

 

[Shambo]

If they spied on multiple clubs right up to the play offs, then there is obviously an advantage they believed they were getting from doing it.

 

[wrighty]

That twat Harwood Bellis pretending to look through binoculars when they went 2-1 up…..ha f***ing ha

 

[Swindon On Tour]

We get it mate you support Swindon

f***ing hell

And I’ve witnessed what it feels like to have it taken away as a Supporter.
You haven’t fortunately.

Or Millwall missing out by 1 point on autos

 

[Smiler]

I wonder if those hawking half and half scarves will be suing?

I'll buy one and give it my boss who's a Middlesbrough supporter. He can wear it down Wembley on Saturday

 

[Bg86]

Appalling decision really. Farce.

I'm as anti boro as they come on here and have been throughout this, but if they've legitimately been cheating for god knows how long since the manager came in they should be punted

I know mate you've mentioned it about 3000 times

Why does everyone have to be “fuming” on other teams behalves for imaginary scenarios that haven’t even happened?

FWIW if Boro don't beat Hull I'll be stunned.

Hull have had to gamble on their own preparation plans through no fault of their own.

 

[SAFC11]

Boro were directly cheated!

So were most likely many others is the point. Wrexham potentially could have finished in playoffs for example if it turns out theyve been doing it to everyone, and lets face it if they felt the need to do it to Oxford its likely more than 3 teams. Its a complete mess

 

[Swindon On Tour]

Whether once or twice it’s irrelevant.
After the Leeds fiasco they immediately updated the rules. That set the precedent.

Logon or register to see this image

 

[Cyprus]

Serves them right. From the statement it’s clear boro weren’t the only victims. Cheating bastards

Southampton are absolute idiots. Such a good team, no need to cheat

 

[southstander]

Can't imagine how our ticket office would manage with 3 days to sell 40+ thousand tickets.

Poorly.

 

[Bg86]

Spy team must have been fkn wank like if they lost to Oxford, barely drew with Ipswich, and needed Conway's poo finishing and extra time to beat boro

 

[Black_Cats1879]

Correct decision on the basis boro aren’t the only victims (interested to see which other ones are. Last I hear was canaries, Bristol city and Millwall). I imagine their manager is going to probably cop a ban or punishment for this as well. Imagine how the fans must feel? Arrogance to being blown out of the water

Owt could happen tbh
