Now Hull threatening illegal action if they lose the final against opponents known at short notice. They only had 2 to deal with man, and they've already played them twice....clowns.
If they don't feel it's fair to have to play Boro they can give their place to Wrexham who'd turn up at Wembley if they had to walk there ...
... Hull need to have some dignity and accept the position in good faith.
He needs it, but there's got to be questions about how much the owners knew. Sports Republic are a strange bunch when you dig in about them. One suggestion was that fans vote on who to substitute and who to replace them and the manager had to go with it. It's not out of possibility that they knew about it or even endorsed it.
Its confirmed they are officially out
And honestly, it has nothing to do with Hull. They get to play the winner of the other playoff which has just been determined. Plus, and this is not really relevant but helps, Boro have the same notice as Hull so the playing field is levelled for Boro too, who would otherwise have suffered unfairly due to lack of preparation time.
aye they reckon 10pm for manager being sacked
Just been on the Soton forum - Tees your very naughty but some of their posters are still on about legal action against the EFL 
but some of their posters are still on about legal action against the EFL 
A) The club knew so daren't sack the manager in case he blabs
B) The club didn't know so they can rip up his contract and boot him out
C) Ignore Option B - of course they knew and hoped they'd get away with it
You couldn't organise something, on that scale, without the owners knowing ...
... they're lying through their teeth and will keep doing it.
This is from their forum which shows the level of arrogance from some of them.

Well done Tees ladAww just been banned from their forum
Interesting to see what happens there in the next few days. The only way to save themselves and their credibility is to have a full inquest and root out the bad apples. An open and transparent one too. Appealing has imo, been a bad move, especially after admitting their guilt. All about greed.
To me, the longer the manager remains in place, the more I believe the owners knew what was going on.
Someone (and i dont mean the lad with the phone who has been hung out to dry) has cost Southampton the chance of a £200 million payday. If the owners didn't know what was going on, I would guess they would be pretty pissed off.
The manager is still in place.
They knew.

There's no way a club would keep the manager unless they knew exactly what was going on.
They could also be waiting to see legally where they stand with his contract. If they can sack him for nowt compensation then it's better for the club
If they genuinely didn't know, surely they could sack him on the grounds of gross misconduct.
Also, If they genuinely didn't know, they could possibly go down the line of actually seeking compensation from the ones involved...its possibly cost the owners £200 million.
FWIW, I dont think any of this will happen, I think they knew.
Now that their appeal has been rejected he should be contacting every newspaper/magazine in the country and get as much as he can for his story.
