@WrexhamFan3 Three. The three dumb enough to practice in public.
This is why there’s not a rule in the PL.

Not a crime at all in most leagues in Europe
Not a crime in the EFL 72 hours before
But one that makes us ‘vile‘ and ‘arseholes’ here

Wonder why we have a siege mentality

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@AndyHead02 ‘Arseholes’, ‘Vile’ - really? We have the ‘victim arc‘ because the football world has become hysterical about some kid looking over a fence.
The info we got was ‘is Hayden likely to play?’ not detailed plans for how every team would kick every ball

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@andydunnmirror You, Winter, Hayward… no nuance, no ‘they’ve already had one of the harshest penalties ever for a minor crime’

Wonder if you’ll be this hard on City

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@thederbydigest See the bit about ‘only three clubs’ is easy to believe. Sure, we WOULD have spyed on Arsenal, City, Cov, Ipswich (in Suffolk)….but didn‘t

Why? Because they have closed training grounds. Like proper clubs

@robin_ncst 🥱

@crablungs 100%

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@iagogod @h8cak @AdamBlackmore You can give us moral guidance if Boro have never pulled a shirt, wasted time or dived for a penalty. All ‘cheating’

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@henrywinter Minimal crime but maximum punishment

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@Griffinjohn38 @AdamBlackmore Absolutely John - good to talk to you

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@Griffinjohn38 @AdamBlackmore All wrong, but we’ve been punished enough

Financially cheat for several years = a 3 point hit.
Dive for a penalty and that’s worse imo

Yes I, like you, am annoyed at our club - but the balance for me is about 10% at SFC and 90% at the authorities and the media

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@Griffinjohn38 @AdamBlackmore The drone footage was of the facility not of actual training sessions. We didn’t film those with drones. This is just exaggerating the crime

We had an inexperienced manager and nobody in charge who remotely thought the sanction for breaking this rule would be expulsion.

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@Griffinjohn38 @AdamBlackmore Bullying is of course more serious. Ok - change the culture at SFC. But this is a problem in all clubs - how do you think Ferguson was in this regard? Morinho bullied the club doctor at Chelsea, never mind the interns!

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@SouthamptonFC Fans of other clubs: butt out - we don’t care what you think

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@SouthamptonFC Saints fans who are still moaning at the club: yes, it was a stupid thing to do. But a fairly minimal crime received maximum punishment - after Boro were allowed to drive the media narrative. How about you support your club now in fighting back?

[Duncan Holley @DuncanHolley]

Time for #saintsfc fans to take a breath, circle the wagons, hope many of last season’s players can be kept and then, with TE our manager on an improved contract, we rip up the Championship and shove two fingers up to the EFL and in particular Middlesbrough.

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@peckham65Grant Hahaha - paid back those local charities yet?

[KeithFray @keithmfray]

@footballontnt Watching Arsenal training sessions ahead of the CL final!!!!
Less than 24 hours never mind 72

But but but…..that’s awful. I feel so bad for Arteta - he must be so hurt…..

Will expect an interview where he’s fighting back the tears like poor Hellberg

😢😢😢
