Irrelevant really too, our fans weren't responsible for this either.

I sure as **** ain't being lectured on morals by some inbred pikey ****s who support a club who ripped off cancer charities though.

Even worse, one of the charities was one set up in memory of one of their own teenage fans who died of cancer too.

How the hell has Maguire not made it?

He has never let us down and in fact has been good for us.

He would be one of my first pics.

Experienced, proven at international level, had a good season.

When it gets tight and you're not creating much, you need guys who are good at set pieces - like Maguire.

When I saw Bwood say about it on here, I was somewhat surprised he's been left out, he's about as solid as they come - yeah he went through bad patch absolutely ages ago and made every effort to up his game, you don't get many players with that sort of commitment these days, I use to give him stick but got nowt but admiration for the guy in the way he responded. Think he deserves a bit more respect from that twat Tuchel, if we get knocked out early he's going to get so much ****.

Agreed.

I really hope we do well but there isn't a good vibe at the moment.

Very flat.

I'm wondering if the Southampton lawyers will take this matter further, though Southampton openly admit spying the EL measures have financial implications, and if the FA are investigating as well there could be more punishment coming their way.

As far as I can see there was nowt in the rules saying you risk being kicked out of a competition, it's not like Southampton are doing a Juventus and weren't involved in financial irregulatorities such as false accounting or as you allude, City.

Serie A: Juventus to pay £620,000 fine in settlement with Italian football authorities

Italian football authorities reach a settlement agreement with Juventus and order the Serie A club to pay a £620,000 fine.
www.bbc.co.uk www.bbc.co.uk

Is there even any evidence that Southampton gained any advantage from this nonsense, afterall all games these days are recorded somewhere, places such as Youtube or some sports channel.

Suppose the only problem is legal action can get costly and Southampton are probably happy to just get on with it.

Every single football game sees someone cheating, what the Saints did was just comedy value and a major over-reaction, because governing bodies and the third parties involved feel empowered in this nonsense world we now live.

... they were able to report back that when a Middlesbrough player pulled a foot backwards, whilst in the vicinity of the football, it likely meant that the foot, when then coming forward in a kicking motion, could potentially connect with the football and propel it forwards ...

Rules are rules .... and such prior knowledge obviously gave Southampton an unfair advantage ...

Maguire would be in the actual starting eleven for me. He's never been anything other than completely solid and rarely makes mistakes.

The one or two he did make a couple of seasons back were highlighted by Tic Tockers and such like, he was always backed by our actual support.
Social media though, eh. Put something out there and it becomes #fact.

It's great for us that him and Shaw don't go. Gives them a decent rest before next season.

Any manager who would pick Dan Burn over either though is seeing something no one else does.

Stones though! Played four games in a year, definitely ready for a world cup obviously.

No one will agree with every pick he makes.

He's made some wrong uns, and some decent ones.

He's right on Foden, wrong on Palmer, wrong on Henderson, Stones, Burn, TAA, Maguire etc.
 
There is just stuff we don’t see as well. Maybe Maguire doesn’t get on well with someone and he’s decided this will be a happier group. Probably not that but maybe.

I can’t have these chavvy Facebook mum tweets like your little Harry hasn’t been picked for the school team. He’ll take you to Dubai for a month instead you filthy oik.


Henderson is mental though. Take him as a coach if he’s that important.

I didn’t think the squad was being announced until today. You’re now doing what you constantly complain about?

It’s basically been announced by a combination of journalists and leaks from players. Poor of Maguire to put a statement out before the official announcement.

It may have even been leaked by the FA, but the point still stands. The squad, as I’ve now found out, is not announced until 9.45am today. Up until that point, it’s not fact just media speculation and certain posters are very quick to tell us not to believe the media bollox.
