Yeah I can’t believe they’ve said so little. Pretty absurd way to treat the fan base.

It’s because deep down they know they lost the game, and the spying had barely impact on that.

We definitely should not have agreed to this. Pushing it back and delaying it for the full 14 days would have been the smartest move. Wonder what went on here

Tbf I thought they were one of the best sides we’ve played this season. They were really well coached. If they had some strikers they’d be a top, top championship side. Hope they lose tomorrow though. I certainly won’t be watching it.

Probably; their IQs are likely low enough that they can’t hold two coherent sides to an argument in their mind at the same time. For us normal people, we can have a discussion about how saints were in th wrong, but it wasn’t that bad, then Boro used it against us.

Ultimately, our intention was to see if Hackney was playing (he didn’t) …And they caught the spy before he saw anything. So how did it deserve such a harsh punishment? It didn’t materially affect the game in any way. It’s all from Boro blowing it out of proportion.

Im not trying to defend anything we have done. I agree that we are turds What I am saying if this was the other way around, Boro’s journalists would have been out in force saying the board is corrupt, the judge is an ex Saints player etc. They were weaponising all these little bits against us in a smart way. Public opinion and media outcry had a huge sway in this case and we let them win it with ease

Im not, this entire thing was trial by media in which Boro whipped up a storm to turn a minor rule breach into the crime of the century. That means we should have been doing the same. Instead we acted like amateurs

But boro were the accuser, the beneficiary and the main instigators. The entire process was of their design 😂 Again, it doesn’t excuse us. But if our legal team, club and PR department had anything about them AT ALL they should have been all over this stuff, pushing a narrative of corruption in the media. Instead they literally bent over and made everything as bad as possible for ourselves

There absolutely is something wrong with it. If it were an ex Saints player in there instead, the outcome could be different. Don’t know why you’re minimising that? it doesn’t excuse what we did. But it is also wrong.

It can both be true that we cheated, but that Boro set it up and played us like a fiddle. No one is excusing what the club has been doing. But Boro used it to their advantage. Which isn’t acting in good faith either.

Just saw this on Twitter as well: https://x.com/louorns/status/2057527758373199996?s=46 May even go back to 2014 when he was an analyst for German national team: ‘2014 World Cup. Germany and France were almost certain to meet in the quarters. Deschamps spoke publicly about what he thought was attempted spying at their camp during the group stage. Guess who was Germany’s chief opposition analyst?’

Good thing our Del Boy and Rodney legal team didn’t think to bring any of this up. They just thought they’d admit to as much as possible for the fun of it. Well done chaps, well done. We have the Gavin Bazunu of legal teams FFS

One of the funniest thins about the whole thing is Dragan used to have a reputation as this big shot who sued a government etc. Now look at this fucking shite that he’s presiding over. 😂😂😂😂 The most saints things ever: - Cheaters that don’t prosper - Dodgy Eastern European billionaire that’s not dodgy We can’t even be corrupt correctly

Yep. Kept it in their pockets, set the trap and got to the final because the EFL contains a load of their cronies. Insane lol. How stupid are to let this happen. Can’t believe it.

Absolutely ridiculous. Fucking bunch of idiots. The more that comes out the worse it gets. State of this lot running our club.

Of all the people involved at the club, I will probably be most annoyed if this stupid twat doesn’t go. Absolutely thrown us under the bus. Reading through the legal “defence” that he arranged and knowing how he behaved. Fuck off you stupid cunt

Jesus Christ reading through the document it’s absolutely fucking ridiculous how stupid and amateur we are. Fucking sack everyone. Absolutely pathetic. We could still have avoided being kicked out, even after being caught, if it wasn’t for everyone involved at the club being as thick as two short planks. Would be hilarious if it wasn’t so embarrassing

Don’t see it. Seems like clickbait. That’s never happened any other time a club has done something naughty as far as I’m aware?

The difference between how it was treated when Leeds did it, and now is absolutely scandalous. Very difficult to get over

Has he gone yet?

A fine and 6 points suspended.

It will have been all season. No way it’s just the three. But as everyone says, I bet everyone does it. Boro just used it.

I do. I’ve been done with him a while. Everything he touches turns to shit. The end of season run glossed over the clubs overall ineptitude, but here we are. They have lurched from crisis to crisis under his ‘leadership’ and never learn anything. Complete joker. It’s been said many times but I honestly don’t understand how Solak earned his money because he is a complete buffoon.

Yes. Absolutely. This lot are soft and inept and ill equipped to run a business in such a cut throat industry
