[EFL Communications @EFL_Comms]

An Independent Disciplinary Commission has today expelled Southampton from the Sky Bet Championship Play-Offs after the Club admitted to multiple breaches of EFL Regulations related to the unauthorised filming of other Clubs’ training.

In addition, the Club has received a four-point deduction that will be applied to the 2026/27 Championship table.

The effect of today’s order is that Middlesbrough are reinstated into the 2026 Play-Offs and will proceed to the Play-Off Final against Hull City. The final remains scheduled for Saturday 23 May, with the kick-off time to be confirmed.

Charlie: Hi @kvlmason
What are the chances of you perhaps doing an inspirational talk at a Primary School for a Year 6 literacy unit? Mentioning Spurs in the talk is optional!

We took a lot of stick in the comments for saying this appointment would potentially cost Huddersfield automatic promotion back in July. The next decision is so crucial now, especially with second well up for grabs in League One! #htafc #Huddersfield #EFL https://t.co/9SHBo8AiCt
