Southampton spying compendium thread

[Hyltons finest]

So that means Boro have had longer to prepare for the final than hull. Gained an unfair advantage like Southampton did right?

This is also true. Boro guaranteed to play Hull would’ve been their mindset the full time

 

[Mackem2017]

It makes absolutely no difference man they all have 48 games footage kf each other. All players and agents etc talk team line ups aren’t surprise in this day and age

Not sure if you’re in agreement with me or not so thanks mate or piss off whichever is appropriate

 

[League Wan]

Great news. Fuck the cheats

 

[Darlo1973]

Wow, that’s a kick in the balls for the Southampton fans. It’s probably a fair decision though, I can’t see any other clubs doing this sort of shenanigans in the future if the FA comes down hard on them like this. Well done the FA

It was the EFL not the FA.

 

[Spargel]

Right decision and good for us because neither Boro nor Hull are any great shakes and don't have great riches or location to attract players.

 

[TB22]

How does that work for 'Boro, wouldn't most of their players have gone on their jollies now, or have they held off just in case?

Borough Been in full time training for the final while being spied on by Hull City ..

Matt le Tissier doing some serious thinking as we speak.

Cheaters never prosper!

Let's see the premier league deal with City in such a tough manner

 

[Roadhouse]

What everyone thought was an incredible run of form was actually cheating.

 

[Bacon]

What a sliding doors moment this could be!

 

[You can call me Al]

Ross Stewart in the World Cup squad, possible double pay gone. What a day.

 

[Mboma]

There must have been strong evidence of spying on Oxford and Ipswich as well as they surely wouldn't have just admitted to it?

Wtf were they playing at???...absolute muppets!

[Shibby Safc]

Its the right decision. Im just amazed they made it


Now i want hull to win final.

 

[Ron Swanson]

If Boro deserve to be in the final then it must be presumed Southampton gained an advantage. If they’ve done it to other clubs and beat them what about those games and what the loss of points might have done to those teams ??

If they spied on three other teams, lost to Oxford (I think were one) perhaps they drew and won vs the other so accounts for the 4 point deduction?

 

[Scotty 1978]

Tbf if they're bringing them back I'd rather they'd moved it. Give us time to prepare and I don't have to deal with their fans if it's midweek and I'm not going.

I think Wembley is fully booked so a midweek game might have to be moved

 

[Antidotes]

spied on Oxford hahahaha

 

[opv]

I’m not having that like, a bloke taking a video of them training Unless they set up completely different to how they usually played or made several changes from their usual team it likely had zero effect. Stupid for doing it but the punishment doesn’t fit the crime for me.

It's cheating and its in the rules to say its cheating and its states it will be punished. What can you not understand

 

[tenpins]

Keith on now.
Said he's been at the Boro training ground for days

 

[forever changes]

Class

Correct decision in my opinion. They admitted cheating against Boro, Oxford & Ipswich.

Oxford should appeal
