@slbsn Agree with your views on Spygate generally. But surely it’s conflict of interest if a one member has been employed by Boro directly (D Winnie) and another works for a firm that has represented Boro recently (L Banerjee). Soton probably didn’t object as it wasn’t disclosed ?
@henrywinter You’ve been so vocal on this as if it’s such a big rule break. It’s not even against the rules in the premier league. Yet in EFL it’s met with the heaviest punishment going. Yes it broke a rule but it’s a minor rule and should have a minor punishment
@L1minus10 “We were thrown out because we cheated in it”. You realise there’s cheating in every football game. There’s a scale of low level cheating to high level cheating. Diving isn’t the same as bribing a ref so the punishment isn’t the same. Spying is low end,but we got highest penalty
@Aguirre115622@henrywinter Where did it say publicly in the rules that if you’re caught spying you’ll be denied promotion and docked 4 points the next season too?
@UNITE_d_LEEDS@henrywinter Yes but we’ve gone from something that was so minor it wasn’t even a rule to now being worthy of the largest punishment in English game history? Henry is a hypocrite saying it was no big deal 5 years ago
@henrywinter “Cheating is cheating” so all forms of cheating should be met with the most extreme punishment? Bribing refs should be the same punishment as time wasting or diving? Spying is on lowest end of cheating scale and been hit with highest punishment.
@secondtierpod The point is the punishment doesn’t fit the crime. Why don’t secondtier understand that? Do you think a player diving in a game is the same as a team paying a ref? Both cheating, both different punishments. There’s levels of cheating and this is on the lower end of the scale
@henrywinter You’ve gone from wanting to Leeds to get off with “just a warning” to thinking effectively a £200m fine and 4 point deduction is appropriate for the exact same offence a few years on.
@secondtierpod Not everyone has played same games. You’re basically checking a league table at half time😂 . If Sheff U win tonight they will have more points, if Coventry win they will have more points and if Ipswich just draw their game in hand they will have more points.
@SaintsExtra Not everyone has played same games. You’re basically checking a league table at half time😂 . If Sheff U win tonight they will have more points, if Coventry win they will have more points and if Ipswich just draw their game in hand they will have more points.
@SESWater Really? Volunteers? You’re not a charity. You are being paid for a service that you are not delivering to the residents of Sutton. And then you ask the same residents to volunteer? You couldn’t make it up.
