@watts_mf@BearsBeyondGate From a personal perspective I love them to bits but this is a business and they are both expensive in what you correctly point out is a time of reduced budget. The issue is all about return on investment and this season it hasn't been enough.
An Independent Disciplinary Commission has today expelled Southampton from the Sky Bet Championship Play-Offs after the Club admitted to multiple breaches of EFL Regulations related to the unauthorised filming of other Clubsβ training.
In addition, the Club has received a four-point deduction that will be applied to the 2026/27 Championship table.
The effect of todayβs order is that Middlesbrough are reinstated into the 2026 Play-Offs and will proceed to the Play-Off Final against Hull City. The final remains scheduled for Saturday 23 May, with the kick-off time to be confirmed.

@SwedeHuge@BearsBeyondGate Such a shame that he wasn't deemed a good fit for our 'system' or was he too much of a maverick? Either way he has to be one of the best players never to be capped at senior level...

@RosbifsRugby@BearsBeyondGate We appreciate the crumbs and that is about as good an insight into the possible vulnerabilities of a team that are 60-1 on to win that you're likely to get. π
