And iirc, Coventry stayed up due to the Boro points deduction. Cov get away with cheating themselves, but also benefited when someone else got penalised for a transgression.

We managed pretty well but it's not going to help most teams.

Were there any warning signs that trespassers would be reported to authorities and any benefits from watching people have a kick about ? Did it state it was private land owner by Middlesbrough FC ? No cameras or filming allowed ? 46 Championship matches played. How many variations can you have FFs !Boro had more than enough chances to wrap up the game in first 45 mins at the Riverside !

Yes, but we have a much bigger fan base than Southampton. I watched the match in a sports bar in Bergen and there were about 20 Norwegian Sunderland supporters in there. No Sheff United fans seen anywhere.

I wonder how the spy was caught! Could a big movie studio turn this into a James Bond type caper? The story is right there.

Sort of puts Hull at a disadvantage, all of this carry on.
Both Middlesbrough and Southampton will likely already be training/prepping on the basis that they're playing Hull next Saturday. They are in limbo not knowing what is happening.

Or, on the other hand, all of the uncertainty means that Boro and Southampton are not fully focussed on the game as they are not sure if they will even be playing

Bob Murray knew before the play off final, they just let the game go ahead
Aye they do things like this quite often to go viral, can't remember if it was this season or last but they paid out on celtic winning the league in August recently

The fact that they're not allowing any ticket sales yet speaks volumes. You could theoretically let Hull sell all their tickets if you knew the game was taking place on the day no matter who they played. They're not, which likely means the final is going to be delayed.

I was just thinking exactly the same thing. I will say though that the likelihood is that they'll be taking a few days rest because its a long season and they have until next weekend to get back to 100%.
It'll be the data analysts and the behind the scenes people for Hull right now who will be working overtime.
