Same old story....

Careful what you wish for....

Yeah, but what good is that if we can't spy on the opposition any more...?

Not that I'd have wanted us to match Swansea's 3 year contract, but there we have a direct impact of the FA's dithering over the sanction process. (Maybe he'd have settled for a 2 year contract with us if the uncertainty over Eckert wasn't a factor).

Probably pointless asking questions about "spygate" anyway as the response will no doubt be: "we can't comment whilst the FA investigation is ongoing"

Yep, agree. I was rather hoping that the club had finally learned it's lesson in January when, at long last, we had two top notch (for this level) centre forwards in the squad. Here's hoping we don't slip back into "make do" mode in the CF department this season...

Cheers 👍🏻🍻

Got a link to his comments, kind sir?

I'm sure our crack legal team are on the case to snuff out such bias...

IMO, no. I've got no evidence for this whatsoever, but I've a hunch he might have been a bit of a 'cage rattler' behind the scenes... Yes, he was one our best players, and probably better 'on paper' than Fellows, but team spirit and cohesion is often worth more than individual player ability...

Airside shops in the UK that ask you for your boarding pass when buying non-excise controlled goods (when there's no legal requirement to do so)... Just so they can reclaim the VAT for themselves (rather than passing on the saving to applicable customers). Gits.

You know you could've stopped the post after "Kids"...?

Although, FWIW, Canada only played 3 competitive matches in that 12 month period. #likeforlike

I still keep coming back to this post from @SaintlyAnd back in May... That coupled with the club's 'offer' to help set up a working group to look into the wider practice of 'spying' by many/most other clubs... Have the club now dropped their "it's not only us that does this, it's widespread guv" stance on the whole 'spygate' saga and, even if they have, why (seemingly) aren't the EFL and/or FA looking into it further regardless? (Rather than just dealing with Saints and then sweeping the supposed more widespread practice of 'illegal spying' under the rug...)

If only self-reflection was allowed on this forum...
