@Sanny_Rudra They both work for Barca rather than as agents, Deco is sporting director and Bojan is a football co-ordinator. Tweet still applies in it being football manager-esque!

A true showing of Teesside passion in the capital. Having this shits on success.

@trottski50 @peter_wink @SharonA73489522 @Boro Fair enough, it's a personal preference on whether it should be a thing, I think it makes the league more exciting but preferring the top 3 to go up is totally fair. I'd also point out that often it's the play-off winners that end up doing the best in the prem the next year!

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@trottski50 @peter_wink @SharonA73489522 @Boro Thinking Millwall should go up is also unrelated to what happened to Boro. That's a fundamental disagreement with the playoffs as a concept which is another argument, one that absolutely has merits but for better or worse, playoffs are here to stay

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@trottski50 @peter_wink @SharonA73489522 @Boro They were disqualified so the result is null and void, same as what happened to Swindon!

Your argument is like saying Lance Armstrong deserves to keep his TdF championships he won while doping because that's the result that happened and he probably would have won anyway

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@trottski50 @peter_wink @SharonA73489522 @Boro You can believe what you want, doesn't change the result. If Southampton were good enough then they shouldn't have cheated. If you get caught using PEDs you still get banned even if you don't perform any better with them.

Get those refunds OUT

[Southampton FC @SouthamptonFC]

We have this evening been informed that the EFL’s League Arbitration Panel has upheld the sanctions imposed earlier this week.

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@louorns Would be some logic to go "you know what, we spied against managerless Oxford and lost, since then we've gone on a 17 match unbeaten run in the league. Time to wheel the spying back out against Ipswich"

[Nick De Marco KC @nickdemarco_]

Delighted for Middlesbrough on this result. Good luck to MFC now for the final!

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@TodayJays And then he follows it up with that base attempt 🙃

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@MitchellT27 Saying in the comments he doesn't have the points, can only assume he's talking about the home game

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@Chris_BoroUTB Presume the rule is that you have to make your tickets available to away fans at the same price that your ST holders get, doesn't look like Southampton are doing different tiers for their pricing

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@Smithy_MFC84 People have too much time on their hands thinking up all this nonsense honestly 😂

You just know if we do end up missing out on promotion and selling Hackney that they'll take it as vindication as well

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@utb_smith @DarboEatsParmo Or maybe people are just choosing not to give up on the season until it's actually over? I get the frustration about the position we had but we've got all summer to bemoan it if we don't go up

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@Georgeturnerutb @Strickland__Ben I get the disappointment and people are allowed to feel how they want, I just don't understand why they do. We still have a chance to go up so to me you may as well focus on that until it's decided, you've got all summer to be gutted/miserable if it doesn't happen

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@TodayJays @SIASport I don't feel bad for him, but I'd still have him back in a heartbeat

[Jake @jakemmfc]

@BoroJessSteph @wallsendredicko You're completely right but I don't think you're going to make much progress here

Ultimately debate is only worthwhile if both sides are willing to change their opinion in light of new information and the guys on this podcast have repeatedly shown they aren't willing to 🤷‍♂️

@rob_fletcher_ The Boro 40+ fans aren't ready for that Rob you should know this

@BoroHistory @Smithy_MFC84 I wish you'd rest your account to learn what free speech means
