Oh FFS. Whoever sanctioned this needs firing. Boro may feel cheated, but I feel just as cheated as a Saints fan tbh. We just can’t have nice things can we, we finally stop being **** and doing well for a couple of months and rug pull, just kidding. Our club is now going to be dragged through the dirt and have this label of cheats for years to come. And seriously, what’s the ****ing point? What massive advantage are you getting from doing this that you can’t just get from watching their games and trusting in your players to perform. No offence to Boro, but we’re not facing Real Madrid here.
I still don’t agree with points deductions as a punishment though as it doesn’t feel anywhere near as much of an unfair advantage as many clubs get for flouting the spending rules. But we’re Saints, so no doubt we end up with a bigger points deduction than ****ing Leicester got. Genuinely embarrassed and annoyed by our clubs behaviour here. If this was happening to another team, I’d think them scummy idiots, and want their opposition to win. So that’s what we’ll be up against now. Well done Saints.
