I dont see how they can postpone the match and then, subject to Southampton being found guilty, not kick out Southampton. The fairest decision would be to let Boro compete in the final.
The problem is, until then, Hull City wont know which team to spy on!
 
Yeah I just had a long back and forth with AI and the conclusion we came to is that we as fans are ****ed.

We could all contact the Independent football ombudsman. Eventually get a public censure and policy change recommendations.

But it can only get to that phase after going through a formal complaint with the EFL.

Just promote us and we'll call it evens.
If Southampton get removed then Boro should not play in place of them, Boro lost a semi final simple as that they lost it on the pitch, if they say well we was spied on and it gave them an unfair advantage Southampton could say we we spied on Hull if we are named as a club like that person said and how did that turn out home and away.

Only fair thing now is Promote us send players off on holiday and to the world cup and save the fans a lot of money, get Southampton to compensate all the Hull fans who paid trains and hotel.

And Still punish them further of course lol.
 
Boro fan in peace.

Just wanted to say how much I sympathise with you lot and the way this is all affecting your preparation, fans ability to make plans etc.

I wouldn’t even be against giving yous a bye as it all feels a bit rotten now if we go through, I just don't see how Saints can reasonably be allowed to contest the final given everything that has gone on.

It’s now looking more and more likely that it’s been systemic as it’s claimed other clubs also have evidence, and we’ve apparently also got a written statement from a former employee about the practice of spying at the club, so as far as I’m concerned the integrity of the league is in the bin if they go up.

The whole situation just stinks. I sincerely hope yous batter them if it does end up going ahead as planned. Will always have a soft spot for Crooksy and I’d love to see the big tree punish the cheats.
 
Not just 28 year olds

Imagine southamptons fate is in the hands of his phone records but he refuses to hand it over goes he’s got a video of some Aussie woman ****ing a fish.

Edit to add, I am not in possession of said video before my inbox explodes with share requests. Although I’m sure you’ve all already seen it.
 
Is there any ticket information? As a season ticket holder I'd like to know how to purchase one. What the hell is going on? This silence suggests to me there is a chance it is going to be postponed. If it is, I want to cancel my hotel booking before it's too late.

Hopefully after a lot of time and effort spent dealing with the EFL on the transfer ban the club has some really close legal contacts they can lobby to influence any discussions between the EFL and the 'expert' panel
 
Bet the Southampton lad is ****ting his pants having to hand his phone over. Every 28 year old lad is in a questionable group chat in possession of questionable content.
That Morgan McSweeney bloke who was Stamer's arse-wiper in chief, allegedily had his phone stolen, whats the betting the same thing will happen here?

One will be easy
The problem will be with friends and family linked but different attendance records

It's never easy Pete...I'm absolutely totally fecking clueless with anything to do with a phone and all the rest of it...I just want to get up at 5am, go to HU3 and get in a queue and meet up with all rest of us numpties.
 
Think Southampton just need to come clean. It’s going to come out anyway. They’ll just be detested even more..
If the upshot is that they still retain their place in the play-off final,I wouldn't think they'd give two hoots whether or not they are detested.

I think after reading some of the pro's and con's on here,I'm inclined to agree with those that think they are going to get booted out(it's clearly within the sanctions for the offence)and Boro will be given their place.

Therein lies the bigger issue,Boro being given time for their fans to make travel arrangements and the game being rescheduled...
