Easy to say, but keep your chins up. :emoticon-0150-hands

I've a sneaky feeling the EFL and the PL will want an end to this, so their best option is to get the ref to do us a few favours so we go up, so get some cash on a penalty or two to soften the blow.

I am staggered. Just desserts in my opinion and I am shocked that it was not a one-off. I would never have guessed this but for three matches to have been preceded by spying, the blame has got to go further up.

Annoying at it was so unnecessary but frustrating because I think this will destroy Tonda's reputation and will likely see him sacked. I can see other heads rolling too Staggering that Southampton have resulted to spying and soiling their reputation.

It's genuinely the most angry I've ever been at a football club. The fact that the EFL went with the nuclear option off of the bat does feel odd, they know Southampton will appeal, and then go down all possible legal routes to postpone and challenge the decision. I'm ashamed of our club staff and management, they've let us down, and the players trust must be gone with the staff now.

Even if we got reinstated and lose, players might well leave because of the broken trust, and Tonda is probably looking at an FA ban too. I thought last years nearly record setting relegation was the lowest we could go.

Serious question here - If Tonda was privy to all this or has even instigated these actions do you think he should be sacked? Surely he must have known this was happening?
 
Why would you need to spy on Will Vaulks and Mark Harris!!!

Oxford Utd!!

Better hope there's no more.

I still think you could win an appeal.

If he’s proven to be involved I’d imagine he’ll get some sort of ban anyway so he’ll have to go

I ****ing said this should land at SR door.

Utter shambles of a club. They must go.

I think the punishment is way, way over the top. We spied on 3 yea s and got the book thrown at us.

Leeds did half a season of it and got £200k.

Wasn't against the rules when Leeds did it.

Rules were changed the season after and those rules have been broken.
 
In effect the Club has been destroyed, it will take years to recover and the reputation will never change. No appeal will change it.
