Great recommendation, really enjoyed it 😬😬😬

You should watch Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die. It's an important piece of art. The kind that makes you think about your present and our collective future. Thought provoking and valuable. Turns out not everything is fake right now. Some things are worth watching. GL, HF, DD.

@andyburnham @hawleyjacob how many times have you been tagged in this?

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Politicians who fanned these flames should hang their heads in shame.

Time and again we've seen this story play out. Single incidents used to fuel a far right narrative - and communities across the nation paying the price.

[Dave @davanelli]

Weird energy, pretty gross. I wonder how far they'd extend that rhetoric.

At some point, those running Southampton are going to have show proper accountability and some humility. Apologise to their fans, and reimburse them their Wembley expenses. Apologise to the clubs they spied on. And take their medicine. Then clear out those who sanctioned the spying. Only then can Southampton start rebuilding their damaged reputation.

They may well be waiting until after the appeal before making a statement and a proper show of contrition. But extended silence simply deepens the stain on the club's reputation. (Even a holding statement would have been something). It's not fair on their fans, the ones who will still be there long after current coaches, players, sporting directors and owners have moved on.

Southampton were traditionally one of the most-respected clubs in the game. Good support, developed players, attractive football. Saints. Not now. Not until there’s full accountability, publicly. Silence only adds to the shame. Pity. Good club but badly led on this. #SaintsFC

A message I got from someone at the EFL today about #spygate

“Do not go against Steve Gibson. Fuck me the bloke is a nutter for his club”

[Football Away Days @AwayDaysFB]

Taylor Harwood-Bellis celebrated like this in front of Middlesbrough players not long after making fun of Luke Ayling's speech impediment, Southampton have now been kicked out of the play off final 7 days later...

Karma is an incredible thing... 🤣

Southampton kicked out of Championship play-off final for spying. Correct decision, especially as it transpires they spied on three clubs in total. This is about more than a bloke standing behind a tree with an iPhone. It’s about how seriously the game should take cheating. EFL independent disciplinary commission have struck a blow for fair play, for integrity, for the need for respect between clubs, for coaches to have an expectation of privacy in training. 25% of goals scored in the Championship this season were from set-pieces. Clubs practised them. Understandably, coaches don’t want their plans revealed. EFL sending a strong message with this punishment. 

Spygate 2 different from Spygate 1. Rules tightened and punishments introduced since Leeds United’s offence. Appeals, of course. It’s tough for Southampton fans to be denied the trip to Wembley and the chance of a return to the Premier League. It’s particularly tough that many have forked out for tickets, travel and accommodation. Their frustration and anger should be directed at their club. Southampton should recompense fans. It’s not the fans’ fault. 

The stupidity in all this is that Southampton would probably have beaten Boro anyway. Better team, stronger bench. But this is so damning… “Southampton admitted breaches of Regulations requiring Clubs to act with the utmost good faith and prohibiting the observation of another Club’s training session within 72 hours of a scheduled match,” says EFL. “The admitted breaches concern fixtures against Oxford United in December 2025, Ipswich Town in April 2026 and Middlesbrough in May 2026.” So the punishment is proportionate. It should act as a deterrent. Honesty matters.

Good evening, #SaintsFC supporters.

No team has ever had fewer points than #Wolves (2 points) after 17 games in all four English football league divisions since 1888.

Remember the big Worcester sauce crisp drought? 🙏

[Dave @davanelli]

Why is everyone pretending that Worcester Sauce crisps weren't a thing?... Makes you think.

[Dave @davanelli]

@art_fashy @anon_opin No they all disappeared for a few years. It was awful.
