I seem to be alone amongst folk I’ve debated this with. IMO it was a crass thing to do but really did SFC gain such a material advantage over MFC by seeing a few snaps of MFC players ‘training’ that affected the result?

SFC accept it was inappropriate but the crux is “does the punishment fit the crime?” The individuals involved should expect personal sanction but at the end of the day football supporters are the lifeblood of the game and SFC fans shouldn’t suffer by this and MFC fans shouldn’t benefit from this windfall.

My personal view is no, but I respect people who aver to the contrary.

Its a tough one. If its the rules its the rules, but hardly the worse footballing crime ever committed.
The timing of it is the big issue. Meanwhile Man City rack up trophies while their 135 counts are considered for a few years.
Im sure most teams watch training sessions of oposition. Its just Southampton got caught.
