"it seems crazy that @thecarolynmusic aren't on everyone's radar by now," concludes our editor-in-chief PP in his review of their latest album #PyramidSchemeOfGrief, which is out now via @Disconnectrecs. Read the full review here: https://t.co/byRyI9YFWO

🚨🎙️Thierry Henry on Southampton expelled for spying drama against Middlesbrough:

“I have to be honest, this is a difficult one. Spying on another team’s training is wrong. Full stop. It crosses a line, it undermines the trust that should exist between clubs, and I understand why Middlesbrough are furious and why the EFL felt they had to act strongly. Integrity matters in this game.

At the same time, I find myself questioning whether expulsion from the play-offs is the right punishment. It feels… heavy. Almost like using a sledgehammer when a precise scalpel was needed.

Let’s be clear: this wasn’t match-fixing or doping. It was analysts pushing boundaries for tactical information, something that, sadly, has happened in different forms across the game for years.

Marcelo Bielsa did it openly at Derby and Leeds, admitted it, and people called him a genius, not a criminal. Drones, analysts in trees, whatever, in the modern game with data and marginal gains everywhere, clubs push boundaries.

Southampton admitted it, yes, and they deserve punishment. A heavy fine, points deduction, maybe even a ban for the staff involved. But kicking the entire club out after they earned their place on the pitch? That punishes players, coaches, and fans who had nothing to do with one or two analysts doing something stupid.

What troubles me most is the collateral damage. The players who battled through a tough Championship season after relegation, who went to extra time and scored that late goal to beat Middlesbrough on the pitch, they earned their place in the final through merit.

Now that achievement is being erased because of actions taken by a small number of staff members. That feels disproportionate to me. A significant fine, a points deduction for next season, and sanctions against the individuals responsible, those would be strong, meaningful punishments that address the breach without nullifying an entire season’s competitive work.

Sport has to balance two things: protecting fairness and recognising that human error and ambition sometimes lead people astray. If every rules breach in high-stakes moments leads to rewriting results, we risk turning the disciplinary process into something more powerful than the football itself. I’ve sat in dressing rooms where we prepared meticulously for opponents. Everyone does. The difference is getting caught.

I hope Southampton appeal and that the final decision finds a better equilibrium. Middlesbrough deserve respect, they were wronged but the players of Southampton also deserve not to have their legitimate efforts wiped away. Football is emotional, passionate, and imperfect.

The response to this should reflect wisdom as much as outrage. We need clearer rules going forward so incidents like this become rare, but we must be careful not to let one mistake destroy what was built legitimately on the grass.

@SouthamptonFC Why does Sesay never get a chance anymore? Looked very decent in pre season and barely seen since, didn’t even get off the bench yesterday. Did something happen behind the scenes?!

[Disconnect Disconnect Records @Disconnectrecs]

@BanquetRecords I asked on another thread but how bad is the water damage? Are the sleeves really bad or is it fairly minor creasing etc?

[Disconnect Disconnect Records @Disconnectrecs]

@BanquetRecords How bad is the water damage on the RBF LP?

@MarkJor57565085 @SkyUK @SkyHelpTeam Awful for me too. Spent ages agreeing my house move and all confirmed over 3 phone calls (including where they read out the contract etc). House move installation date comes and no one shows up and was told “we can see records of the calls but nothings been booked in” 🤬🤬🤬

@SouthamptonFC No Sesay?

[Disconnect Disconnect Records @Disconnectrecs]

It’s probably very geographically swung and I’m aware that indie rock is a lot more popular than punk, emo, pop punk, whatever, but just a random dive into streams. Bookmark this for your next “which band is bigger on Spotify” quiz

[Disconnect Disconnect Records @Disconnectrecs]

Random monthly band plays on Spotify, just browsing through various bands:

NOFX: 1.01 million
Joyce Manor: 806k
The Gaslight Anthem: 499k
Tigers Jaw: 481k
The Menzingers: 248k
Saves The Day: 204k

Seems quite random, I know plays doesn’t necessarily equal popularity but…

[Disconnect Disconnect Records @Disconnectrecs]

But surely they’re not more popular than bands like The Gaslight Anthem or The Menzingers, but realising in streaming terms they are. Then checking “surely Saves The Day are therefore clocking more streams than Tigers Jaw” and not being close…
