@AndyWoodturner What's wrong with a 25% profit. That's how business works

[Glen de la Cour (leagueoneminus10) @L1minus10]

2 wins out of 14 for Hellberg. The only team in history to fuck up promotion three times in one season. See you next season. #saintsfc

[Marsden 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @R_J_M_11]

We have just witnessed the biggest bottle job in championship history. Over 200 days in the automatic places BOTTLED, knocked out of the Playoffs TWICE 🤣. Couldn't sell their wembley allocation 🤣. What a pathetic football club 🤣. #boro #utb #hcafc #sfc #itfc

[Mike Smale @MikeySmale]

Hang it in the Louvre.. 🤣🤣

[SaintsExtra @SaintsExtra]

🚨🐯 Official: Middlesbrough become the first club to lose both the Championship play-off semi-final AND final. History makers.

[David Austin @dkaustin87]

Instead of people sticking the knife in on little old Southampton, perhaps more questions should be asked about dodgy Steve Gibson determined to throw Southampton out because his team couldn’t win on the pitch. 2 people on the independent panel with links to Boro?! Wow #saintsfc

[James Oliver @Jim_Olly]

@AlfieHouseEcho @Tigs76 Alfie - Lydia Banerjee is a KC at Littleton. Littleton have a commercial relationship with Middlesbrough. Banerjee’s colleague at Littleton, Nicholas Siddall, represented Middlesbrough in a case against HMRC in 2020.

[Alfie House @AlfieHouseEcho]

Member of independent commission that booted Saints out of Championship play-off final has denied accusations of bias.

David Winnie, former footballer turned lawyer, spoke out after growing social media chatter. No objection to panel was made.

[James Oliver @Jim_Olly]

@Mr1ting @TheStatsSaint Definitely a conflict of interest with two of the people that sat on the hearing. Lydia Banarjee and David Winnie both have links to Boro. Lydia's company has represented Boro before and David Winnie played for them albeit on loan briefly.

[NZSaintsfan @COYSNZfan]

Middlesbrough have apparently asked if the hearing can be held in North Korea so that the death penalty is on the table

#SaintsFC #spygate

[Leigh Curtis @LeighCurtis_DT]

I watched the first leg and Boro should have blitzed Southampton. Was the spy's message to try to let Boro have a headstart? It's naughty and it should be punished, but kicking a team out of the playoffs after a two-legged game that went to extra time, by the way, is absurd.

[Jon Sopel @jonsopel]

Is the outrage over Spygate understandable? An act of crass stupidity, I’ll grant you. But this is less Philby and Burgess and more Laurel and Hardy. Some hapless intern is sent to film from 400M on his smart phone the Middlesbrough team kicking footballs. What searing insights would the Southampton side have got? ‘Ok boss they’re kicking the ball with both their left and right feet. Sometimes they’re heading it.’ It’s all so silly. Southampton look like a right bunch of Charlies. But in the pantheon of great sporting scandals, this is pimple sized

[Central @WestHam_Central]

Pathetic if they remove them.

Open field, using an iPhone.

Shouldn't be removed from a promotion final lol

[James Oliver @Jim_Olly]

@FPLMate Nonsense post for interaction

[Walthamstow Football Club @walthamstowfc]

We have been made aware of a distressing image doing the rounds today, suggesting Tottenham have beaten us 3-1.

This has clearly been photoshopped, and we will be taking this up with the relevant authorities.

Even we'd beat Spurs...

[James Oliver @Jim_Olly]

@jackjoeyy12 This wasn't great from Baz but the defending here was clearly awful.

[James Oliver @Jim_Olly]

@Pompey Lovely stuff

[James Oliver @Jim_Olly]

@SouthamptonFC Let's forget about the Villa loan deal where he tried to force a move...

[James Oliver @Jim_Olly]

@SouthamptonFC @officialAL20 Great bit of business, got his last payday from us for 50k a week and made 5 starts...

[Just Saints @JustSaints_]

Sack Juric, give it to Rusk until the end of the season and let Spors decide the manager for next season.
