@MattPB_@jackwardpod I thought this exact same thing.
If we hadn’t played you and/or managed to scrape top two. This literally would have gone under the radar I think.
@alex_crook Dragon Solak should try and hire Nicola Cortese as director of football and get rid of everyone else.
Will never happen but if you want to turn this around then let’s get someone knows what they are doing
If you read the statement it sounds like the only evidence that they are focusing on is the spying on the Middlesbrough training session.
Which tends to suggest that all the other noise about Southampton consistently spying et cetera et cetera has been blown out of proportion.
I may well be wrong. I just think the statement doesn’t match the disproportionate amount of allegations that have been thrown out there.
This reads as: “we can’t put undue pressure on from the inside the room, so let’s put undue pressure on from the outside”
If they were so bothered about integrity then let the independent commission do their job, rather than trying to influence everything.
We have definitely not acted with integrity by spying but a complaint was made. Saints said they would cooperate, which one can only assume they have, otherwise they will be looking at a very harsh sanction, and since then boro have posted, some factual, but largely false information to the press. They have also whipped up a frenzy and tried to influence the media, other clubs and the wider public.
Both teams will need to take a long look at themselves after this…….
Embarrassing all round
@Cabbage_Face What would you want them to do. I’m not being argumentative I’m just interested because either way there will be a legal battle here and they don’t have time to deal with this.
It’s an absolute mess. And a shambles
@Furmo8 I think when our club does weird things we are allowed to be a bit weird.
Literally have no idea what to make of all of this. Absolutely mental.
Have fun tomorrow and enjoy it buddy
@boroliam1@SaintsExtra This is really embarrassing and really funny at the same time. Genuinely don’t know what to make of it 😂😂. Both sets of players must be really confused by it all 😂😂
@AdamBlackmore If @SouthamptonFC aren’t giving out red and white binoculars for everyone travelling to boro on Saturday then we might as well all give up. 😂😂
@The_InplayGenie I played all of the non winning slips but with very low stakes. Forgot to do the winning one 😂😂.
That’s life. Like you say. You don’t gamble more than you are willing to lose.
Keep up the good work
@OwenJones84 All this talk of cults and ultras etc. is deeply divisive from all sides. In a hypothetical situation in which Starmer wins the election do you think this would calm down or become even worse? I’m an interested outsider and have no idea if there is an answer.
@OwenJones84 If you like politics you might know. If you don’t like politics you can always look it up and put two and two together. Probably not the biggest issue for most people considering the cost of living crisis.
