Lard

Ross was made of glass. Glad he’s going. we literally nursed him throughout his time here. always waiting for him to break down with an injury and be out again. now fill his spot with someone that can give a contribution for 90 mins.

Outstanding bit of business.

What a waste of time that ‘statement’ is. We’ve conceded and now we move on. big middle finger to the fans who appear not to be addressed thus far. I don’t want a kiss arse apology…just some ruddy form of contrition from the club.

Southampton. He met with Lawrie McMenemy at a local restaurant,the potters Heron, and was convinced to join us. one of my biggest footballing heroes joined us. It was magical seeing him play for us week in,week out. what side we had. And he was fantastic. Sad day to hear this.

If,and a big if, the players that remain give vocal support for Tonda to stay,I’m all for it. (FA investigation allowing). I think there will be a siege mentality if so. We are going to get vast amounts of vitriol thrown at us and I think that could work in our favour under Eckhert at the helm. The desire to prove our detractors wrong will be massive,and that needs to come from the top. someone who understands what this seasons complete cock up means and wants to put it right.

Ironically Take That kick off their ‘Circus’ tour tonight. they couldn’t of picked a better place to play for two nights. A stadium with a club that’s just like one right now. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Close this thread now. we cheated. Got caught. Got sanctions. lets move forward….into another abyss of humiliation and failure. I for one,can’t wait. it’s done. It’s dusted. we are an utter shambles. but we go together.

Boro will probably sue them for breaking the brick. 🤷🏻‍♂️

“Strongest on the bottom”….easily remedied with lashings of lubricant. Allegedly. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m going to have to give a swerve to all my socials this weekend. I’m constantly getting feckin Boro stuff come up. it’s so galling seeing them having a blast in Trafalgar Square,getting geared up for ‘their’ big day. fucking gutted. sometimes I really hate my club….this is definitely one of those occasions.

That’s one hell of a back four. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The four points deduction was put in the ‘punishment’ purely for this scenario. EFL can save face and Saints can say they fought the aforementioned punishment. Thats the whole point of the four points, as it was deemed a ‘disposable’ part of the sanctions for us.

More importantly,will Tonda have to give his manager of the month awards back? seriously though,what an absolute clusterfuck of a club. shameful. I want to see heads roll for this. club has taken the fans for mugs.

We are expelled.

Welcome to my world. I deliberately changed my colostomy bag to a fresh one with more capacity in preparation. go figure. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Certainly doesn’t. and I hope it stays that way. I just have my concerns.

WE may not see it as a ‘major crime’ but there will be some that does,primarily because they will be privy to the evidence. And WE aren’t. An example will be deemed necessary and you know the governing bodies are hardly consistent.

From that latest EFL statement I’m getting the feeling they are laying the groundwork for us to be kicked out and the final won’t take place when scheduled or if at all. And to prepare the fans for that outcome. making a point of the terms and conditions and highlighting the specific fact to be mindful when making travel arrangements etc,just seems they are covering the bases for any likelihood of us not being there or no final at all. 🤷🏻‍♂️ hope it’s just standard waffle from the EFL and we get to play on the 23rd.

Just imagine we win the playoffs. it will be tainted with. ‘Cheats’ fucking ridiculous situ to be in the cunts that sanctioned this need to go shameful

Yep. We have been charged by the EFL so some truth in the matter it seems. fucking disgraceful by Southampton FC. foolish shit. Casts a shadow over the season.

Anyone else think this ‘spygate’ saga is going be detrimental to the semi final for us? I do. either way,proven or otherwise, it’s distracted from the game itself. Boro now have something to rally behind even more. we on the other hand appear on the back foot having to refute the allegations. if we have been underhand,we are deserving of any punishment dished out by the EFL. I will fucking hate the club for this. it’s unforgivable,and will tarnish the amazing achievements from Ekhart,as they will forever be seen as cheating.

Stadium is like a morgue. seems to be a lot of tension in the crowd which is not inspiring at all. I think it’s transmitting to the players.

I’ve been to box park,albeit for a gig. they made it Linkin Park fan Park at it was epic. beer prices were reasonable,I was surprised. loads of different food outlets…they aren’t so cheap but the variety is vast. they laid on the best pre gig live entertainment…I’m pretty sure it will be damn fine for footie. it’s renowned for it. is a very groovy place before any specific event. just a short walk from the tube station and too the stadium itself.

This is some remarkable shit going on right now. incredible.

Manager of the month in consecutive months. can’t say he doesn’t fully deserve it. unfortunately not in the running for manager of the year. maybe the EFL are a little premature in announcing the nominations. 🤷🏻‍♂️
