Nowhere near Redknapp territory...
Hand on heart Gibbo is worse in my opinion
I originally voted for keeping him under probation. But now I think that if we don`t sack him, we should back him 100% without any caveats or conditions. Assuming he doesn`t get banned somehow!
He (and us) have been punished enough.
Sure, he`s made a monumental error of judgement regarding spying.
But he`s young and will have learned the hard way. He`s hungry and driven. He got the best out of our squad.
I think he will be even more determined to make amends and bring success, and I want that to be with us.

Of course we are coming full circle, elevating him to religious status and embracing the hatred just in time for the 36 month ban to be announced and a rushed club statement saying that his position was considered untenable for a while and we meant to put this out a couple of days ago but forgot to hit send. We never get what we want.
The problem is if he goes SR pick his replacement....
Sounds like if Tonda avoids an FA ban he'll avoid the sack.
You must log in or register to see media
it's kind of how the silence was implying it to be - they are waiting on the FA to tip the scales - if they do.
if the club are prepared to back him then the team has to be too (or at least enough of a majority) and it likely also implies Spors / Parsons are not going anywhere either

Where there is no loyalty left in the game, it’s quite refreshing to hear they’re gonna give someone who’s made a mistake another chance & if he doesn’t get the FA ban and does take us back to the top tier, then you’d like to think he’d show loyalty back if someone wanted to poach him. This is essentially the making of his career if they give him this opportunity after such a huge, global media scandal
Also, it leads the example to any players thinking they’re bigger than the club. Could be massive in changing the culture of us letting players leave whenever they feel like it. Risky but if this pays off, it will really pay off imo

Might as well keep him, we can’t be anymore hated by the easily influenced public than we already are. As long as the players still respect him then I want him to stay and stick 2 fingers up everyone else. Unless of course we lose our first 5 games then sack him.
If the board want to back Tonda, then I`d like to see them backing him in the press and making a case for him now. A charm offensive aimed at the FA, much in the same way that Gibson did for the EFL.

Saints are not hated. Media went over the top for headlines, but most people were shocked by the punishment and couldn’t see how Boro deserved to be in final after being beaten over two legs. There will be banter next season…we have to take it and then give some back.
I propose we play ‘We are watching you’ as our new anthem

And instead of the slogan ‘We March On’, we should have, ‘Shaken, not Stirred’.Saints are not hated.

Oooo oooo oooo and we can play I Spy With My Little Eye as half time entertainment.
How about 'Oh when The Saints go Spying On'?Saints are not hated.

Why does Parsons have to go ?
I’ve not seen a reason ( admittedly I haven’t read this whole thread ) .
‘I wanna be behind the tree, oh when…’
I wonder if the FA will cotton on to the fact that a lot of their own members, supporters and players were punished that were totally innocent of any wrong doing?
