He gave a much longer answer than the one line I've pulled out, but yes he did say the assurance he could give is that there were no more allegations beyond those three

Spors: We had a long conversation with Jay Robinson. He didn't really get enough minutes last season. Now he gets a chance to go to a different environment and grow in his personality and his skills in a way that can develop his long-term career. We think he will come back a better player. I spoke to Ivan Juric and wanted to hear what his plan is. With Ivan's training compared to Tonda's training he will need to be ready to run more

It was so rambling. I actually thought the question was going to be asking if we can stop releasing new kits every year and alternate on home/away releases each summer. But no... it was about the stripes. Not sure how the preamble related to it

Absolutely going round the houses to ask the question as well

Parsons on what the medium to long term projects are: 'Your revenue level is tied to your salary level and without the increased revenue you can't drive your salaries into higher levels. We've been working a lot on some real estate projects around the stadium. We're not quite at the point of being able to publicly share those because we're in talks with some major developers. But I can tell you that they will be one of the biggest development projects around any stadium in the UK.'

Second Q was a bit of a belter: To you Phil, when this happened, the way the club was led, we were in an information vacuum in the wake of Middlesbrough out there releasing statements, photos to the media and leading a storm against us. You were left somewhat lacking in my opinion. You reportedly went to Gibson and said 'sorry mate' and that's about it. We just let it happen rather than fight our corner. We were very quiet. You say respectful but I say we were eaten alive by the people up north and have been left to live with the consequences of that.

'Phil, can you assure us there were no more than three incidents of illegal scouting missions?' 'I can assure you there are no more than three allegations'

Parsons saying at the fan forum that the club is expecting from the FA a timeline for the remainder of the process, then a specific date for a hearing and then a follow-up period. Blackmore asks if September is more likely than August and Parsons said rumours are rumours. Once we get more information from the FA on the timeline we will be happy to share it more widely, right now we don't have a clear timeline but we want it dealt with and to get on with it

Alfie House saying Saints never withdrew their offer of a 2yr contract, but Ross was looking for long-term stability and also had concerns over Tonda Eckert's future and the possibility that he could've got stuck at Saints with a manager who didn't fancy him and a shorter amount of time before becoming a free agent

Swansea have given Ross a contract until 2029

Or not

Away will be out at 10am tomorrow

The Stewart to Swansea report the other day is legit, according to BBC Wales: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/ce3qy349030o

BBC Wales now reporting that Ross Stewart is set to sign for Swansea City: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/ce3qy349030o

Jander is better in possession and contributes a lot to attacks in the way he wins the ball in dangerous areas and then drives forward into space before laying it off to the attacking players. Just because it doesn't show up on a stat sheet in goals and assists doesn't mean he doesn't play a part in creating those opportunities too

Yeah, me too. I like Larin but he did have games where he couldn’t do much right and wasn’t quite happening for him. I’m slightly relieved with Stewart going somewhere else as I was apprehensive about trying to get through an entire season relying on just Larin and Stewart

I’m assuming but that’s presumably the transfer Tonda was alluding to at the weekend when he said we’d made some progress and were hopeful of announcing another signing soon. When we sold Fernandes last season we announced Jander the same day (and also completed the Fellows and Azaz deals) so I’d imagine they’re aiming for a similarly quick timeline with this one
