Southampton spying compendium thread

[Kenna]

According to SSN the FA can get involved now too and start charging individuals. So coaching staff, Eckert, etc for “bringing the game into disrepute”

Don’t see it happening but who knows

Southampton can sack him to try and make themselves look better I guess.

 

[The Beautiful Game]

It’s such a grim way to cheat.

Everyone aware of this should be drummed out of the club.

Agree with that. Not defending Southampton, but I feel for their fans and for hull

No way boro should have benefited like that. Hull should have just been awarded the result

The EFL won't want to miss a pay day from the final. Boro should've had to play Wrexham, then winner plays hull

Embarrassing all round. Getting beat and still getting through. Very messy.
-4 points is very lenient too imo

We got beat and got promoted

In the Olympic footy spying case, the head coach was banned for a year and then fired.

 

[Swindon On Tour]

If I was. Southampton season ticket holder I would want a refund and at least a free season ticket for next year

Like every Swindon Supporter. Don’t be daft.
Part of the territory.

Thought they might have put the final off for a week. Not much time to arrange tickets, travel and accommodation.

Wembley is booked up for all sorts over a year in advance. Moving the date of the game would likely have meant having to move the location too.

Sure I read they had them back in training just in case

They have been

Well I remember being at Wembley to see us lose to Swindon in the playoffs. I don’t recall being overly embarrassed when we were gifted promotion because of their financial sins.

 

[ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK]

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

Hull have been on the blower to him already trying to get info about Boro's tactics

 

[Dan..Dan..Dan..Dan]

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

 

[Fred Army]

Seems the right outcome to me.

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

Im guessing its simply any other way of working it would me rescheduling, and that seems incredibly unlikely

 

[chriswallace85]

Appalling decision really. Farce.

 

[Lord Potts]

Already appealed

The Football League must be absolutely raging with Southampton. They have thrown the FL's showcase tournament that's worth millions in to absolute chaos for the fans and the other Clubs in the Championship alike. I

They admitted the offences didn't they expect to be punished? There was no guarantee that they would have won the final anyway so all they are getting is a paltry four point deduction. All they have to do next season is win their first two games and they will still come off two points to the good.

Appeal? If the beggars had any self respect they would have voluntarily withdrawn from the Final last week when they were forced to admit what they had been doing.
