Not sure the ST or Zeigler are particularly ‘sensationalist’.

From today’s Sunday Times… Interesting and worrying… so the FA could pick up charges against us after the EFL commission. Also worrying the EFL have the power to review phone/text records… (but wouldn’t they have already done that if the deadline is Tuesday?). Increasingly thinking we’ll have someone else at the helm next season, even if temporarily.

No.

I’d hope not - young coach with a promising future - maybe sanction him, short suspension from duty or something (over the summer😉) - and have him learn from the episode. Interestingly, this is apparently not ‘illegal’ in Germany so maybe there’s a cultural angle here too? The biggest issue, if he is proven to be involved, will be the reaction of the media to Tonda and how they continue to stir things up - which will amplify with other fans on SM and in away grounds. That could be too much of a high pressure environment for him.

TV, what else…

Can’t read too much into it, but still nice to see! https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/hull-city-vs-southampton-playoff-final-2526

Private eyes - Hall & Oates People watching - Sam Fender

Yes of course they are. I doubt we gleaned anything we didn’t already know.

🫣

The question we all have…Huge risk, little reward.

I think people are attaching *way* too much importance on the value spying brings… games are won by the 11 on the pitch. Tactics are important, but this sort of thing will only really really tell you who is fit & training, and marginal info like set-piece set-up - which you likely know anyway from watching their previous matches!

Why that song in particular?

Rumour had it that he was a Man U fan…

Yes it is.

Stupid question from Adam at the end I thought…

So if we lose all our best players, end up down the line as middling or worse team, who lose more than they win, playing in front of a half full stadium, you’ll still be loving it because “no VAR”? Right…

It’s fun when you’re winning, not when you’re Stoke or Blackburn…

What time is the Soton flight?

I really don’t like his habit of wandering upfield and hanging around the half-way line when we’re attacking. Makes me very nervous…

He’ll certainly be on the bench now….

Eh? Our GD +24, Wrexham +6, Hull +4.

Very annoying!!

At least an ex-Saint got a look in… Dom Ballard won L1 Player of the year, and L1 Young player of the year…

Who got goal of the season?

Thanks for that…
