The Dragon has come out fighting…siege mentality here we go. Is it the right strategy - only time will tell- but as time heals I’m here for it #saintsfc
@kevinhatchard Eh? The clubs silence has been one of the problems in this whole thing. Whether today’s affirmation is the right strategy time will tell but as a fan I’m appreciative of the stance and transparency - and whilst I’m still very angry gives me some sort of hope for next season
@henrywinter Don’t disagree Henry but you’re repeating what we’re all thinking. Let us have a break from a truly traumatic few weeks particularly ahead of what’s going to be a very painful day tomorrow. The club will come back from this - it has to - and of course action needs to be taken
That’s me & football done for a while. Feel so let down by my club @SouthamptonFC & the actions of a few (now on club to show a response) we didn’t deserve to be successful in appeal but Punishment = Ridiculous & if expulsion is necessary then promote Hull. The match is a mockery
@AdamBlackmore We all need a detox from the club; a few days to reflect, switch off & bury the anger & disappointment then we go again as we - fans always do regardless which players are at the club, who the manager is, what league we are in. The worst thing is it didn’t have to be like this
Slept on it ( not much). Feel sick and angry and totally confused. What a stupid thing to do for so little gain. Fair to say the rollercoaster took its steepest drop yet. Only @SouthamptonFC
Heads need to roll regardless. Deep embarrassment of my club @SouthamptonFC regardless of what happens tomorrow. The last three months ruined. Time for the club to speak - the silence is deafening.
Fair to say Boro are becoming a bit embarrassing now. Wronged yes (and it was wrong) but any sense of proportionality or objectiveness seems to have gone out of the window. #saintsfc
Surprise surprise Boro have now enlisted the local MP; what next a petition to hear Spygate in parliament? Their lack of sophistication in comms strategy (and so called ‘bombshell’ leaks for clicks - despite how disappointing and unnecessary this has been from my club- is telling
What will be intriguing in the #spygate hearing is if the amount of back channelling and blatant spin doctoring Boro have been doing - is taken into account. Can’t help but feel silence is the best comms strategy here… #saintsfc
@AlfieHouseEcho Have you managed to get a legal view from a sports barrister Alfie as don’t think Biesla is the precedent- agree with you though - it would also spark the mother of all legal battles and not just from saints. Somehow doubt the EFL have the appetite for that
