Took some time to mull this over. I know spying happens in football but I'm not happy IF we're doing it. Innocent until proven guilty and that but I wish the club would release a statement denying it and acknowledging mind games or something.

If we actually have been doing it we don't deserve promotion in my opinion. That's a big punishment but that's how strongly I feel about cheating... Probably where I'm going wrong!

This is my opinion too. I was really disappointed by this news and thought Saints were better than this.

I know a lot is resting on this match but it is still cheating which goes totally against the grain as to what sport is supposed to be about.

Despite reports that the so-called Southampton spy was found ‘hiding in bushes’, sources say he ‘simply stood at the top of the hill’, which slopes down to the training field & gives a view overlooking pitches #saintsfc @BBCSport

The big issue is not this, it's what equipment was used. If he was simply stood on the hill watching then frankly there's no case to answer. Maybe a slap on the wrist. But if we was filming it starts to get more serious.
