@DanSFC94 Yeah mate, this is what happens when cheaters make the whole thing messy and need to be disqualified. It's rarely clean - one of the reasons you shouldn't cheat
@AdamAzor@MarkJLittlewood Adam were you as upset after EFL v Swindon where effectively the same punishment was handed down? If not, why are you against the tribunal following precedent?
@stocksandsants The logical extension from that is I am unsure how you're able to say you won fairly over the two legs with uncertainty as how much the spying disadvantaged Boro.
I also think you have to accept there was benefit - otherwise why would you send a bloke to do it!
@stocksandsants Where I think this (generally good) analysis misses the mark is there is no way of telling exactly how much impact the spying had. It's entirely possible that certain tactics where thrown out which would have added extra benefit as it was potentially seen by Salt.
@AwayDaysFB Look at the overlap of key injuries and the downturn in form. It's almost perfectly correlated with Whittaker and Hackneys injuries. He came into someone else's squad, played exciting football and was very honest and open in a way Boro fans valued.
@_Afcbanks Premier League table positions are decided by points, with ties broken by goal difference, then goals scored, head-to-head record, and head-to-head away goals. If teams remain equal while competing for the title, European spots, or relegation, a neutral-venue playoff is held.
