Why? It's sounding like he heavily contributed to us getting ****ed, rightly or wrongly. Need people you can trust.
Stick with Tonda, back him and tuck the EPL where it hurts, I.e. get promoted next year with Tonda at the helm.

Let’s put it this way. Who would you rather start with. Next season:
1. Tonda
2. Russell Martin
1. Tonda
2. Russell Martin
Another of my daft whims, Tonda may have been in part responsible for some of the mess, but is still just as much a victim of it's outcome as the rest of us. Not usual for victim to help rectify a problem, but it could be good for everyone, if he could succeed by carrying on where he left off, without the need to go down the wrong road?
Not going to happen is it?

West Ham will apparently be looking for a new manager, so our options for a replacement could start dwindling.
Tonda is our best chance of getting promoted next season. We would be bonkers to let go of him. Who cares if some opposition fans sing some nasty songs about him, they will soon quieten down when they go 1-0 down
Rumours coming from SaintsWeb via The Ugly that Spors and Tonda’s desks have been cleared.
I just snuck over there in a Hazmat suit to have a look - the rumour seems to be that personal belongings have gone other than company laptops and car keys on the desks. So that sounds like balls to me, otherwise known as 'maybe they just went on holiday' etc.
This is SR. They're probably using the Scienza money to upgrade said cars and laptops.
Do companies still do company cars nowadays? Surely it is a car allowance on your wages and you buy what you want an di t belongs to you?
Lot less hassle for the company and more tax efficient.

The idea that a security guard would know that and happily pass it on but the press wouldn't have wind of it is for the birds imo.
Electric cars on salary sacrifice are pretty handy, too.
They are getting ready for the summer deep clean FFS.
No way Jose replacing Tonda, he signed a three year deal with Real Madrid.
We don't need a new ****ing manager. We have an excellent one already who is going to redeem himself by getting the team to perform way above expectation and getting us promoted.
We should split into two different planes of reality and see the sliding doors outcome. Realists see Tonda stay in charge and F.T.W. - best manager of our recent times and the key potentially to keeping this team together. And those who want to concede to the judgmental standards of others such as the media and other teams' fans and beg for forgiveness from the EFL can have Will Salt at the helm or let SR have another spin of the random wheel of manager choices that brought us Nathan Jones and Will Still.
Whatever all our differences in viewpoints on the ethics of this, why be turkeys voting for Christmas when it comes to our own club and its future? I just can't see how five years down the line - if we're languishing at the bottom of the Championship or lower because of the fallout from this - people can be happy with the sole prize of being able to hold their heads up proud and relish the fact the club did the right thing (which is a matter of opinion). I just can't see how some of our fans actually want us to be punished further. Absolute sub-optimal, non-rational, non-utility maximising behaviour.

I'd say realists think he'll probably be banned anyway anyway so the discussion is immaterial.
Tondas been brilliant, no questions.
But this is such as stain and black mark on our clubs history, and hes been a part of that. I just want to cut off anyone who was involved and start afresh next season.
Anyone involved have to go. Its that simple. They’ve bought shame and embrassment on our club, and the quicker they leave, the quicker we can move on.
I also realise im an increasing minority, but thats the beauty of opinons.

These hints and leaks that we'd like him to stay aren't coming from nowhere, so I suspect that's the club's reality. As Libs says, all depends on the FA now, but I'd like them to pull their fingers out.
Suspended sentence, and let's crack on.
