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 Clubsโ training.
In addition, the Club has received a four-point deduction that will be applied to the 2026/27 Championship table.
The effect of todayโs 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.

23' IT'S TWO!!
Jordan Gabriel wins the ball back high up the pitch, drives into the area, cuts onto his left foot and curls past Addai and into the bottom corner to double our lead!
#PVFCLive | 0-2
4' Sherif gives us the lead!
Ben Waine gets away down the left and sends a pinpoint cross into the path of Martin Sherif, who makes no mistake from close range!
#PVFCLive | 0-1
@ltfclouis I wouldnโt go for Kodua, since he signed permanently heโs fallen off a cliff. Would give it to Richards personally with Johnson close behind him.
