I can’t believe people still want Tonda to stay, and some even want Parsons to stay? To move on from this it needs a complete reset. They have literally brought the club into disrepute through complete stupidity. They have single-handedly given me the worst feeling I’ve had in football in almost 40 years. Besides this the FA will take that matter out of our hands. People seem worried we won’t replace Tonda. It does not need to be a generational reset, the vast majority of players who leave would have left if we lost to Hull regardless. We will still have a competitive side next season. The footballing world will soon move on from this shit storm, starting next weekend when Boro steal promotion and Hull become the story, Sunday we will see Spurs or West Ham in the same league as us. England will fuck up the World Cup in less than 6 weeks, people need to realise this is fish and paper next week to the footballing world. We have every opportunity to re build and go again and we will still be a decent option for good players because we can still offer more money than our competitors in this league. Sponsors will soon come back, again, we can still pay for them and money talks. I know it doesn’t seem like it now but we will win more games than we lose next season, there will be laughs next season too. People will hammer Boro when they get smashed every week next season if they go up, rightly pointing out they shouldn’t be there. The club can re build, but it needs to with a complete reset. It also needs to offer fans more than a 10-14 day refund on play off final tickets.

He may not be a talented manager, and we have no proof now he is. He should be referred to asterisk, and that’s being polite.

Alex Crook really is a prick, claiming the players will be branded cheats now. You can’t even use that word in the same sentence for them after this shit show. Tells you all you need to know when an ex Pompey player is saying it’s ridiculous (o hara) and I see Merson has too.

Tonight’s verdict really has made a statement of intent to stamp spying out of the game…..up to 73 hours before kick off.

This is just common sense to you and I and any sane individual. I don’t work in PR but the first thing should be recompensate fans, and not just for Wembley. You watch them hold onto the booking fee too. Complete lunatics out of touch of all reality. The second sentence should be announcing an internal investigation with those accountable facing investigations. Neither of that was in that statement.

Why has nobody been sacked yet? The dickheads still can’t get it right. We expect more refunds than just Wembley.

The whole narrative is wrong. Sky sports now, it has to be done quickly. No it fucking doesn’t. Make the correct decision. If it means Sky lose their showcase final, then so what!

That statement from Parsons is a fucking piss take. Has he missed the point we may not have beaten Hull? Not one comment in there about recompensating fans for this fucking stupidity. We all know the sanction is harsh, nothing in there of any relevance at all.

Instead of this pointless appeal have we found anyone with PR expertise yet? Still no comment from the shambles that is SFC.

I’ve taken some time to compose myself from this news, my initial reaction was anger and complete shock. I didn’t see this coming at all. My immediate disappointment is for my son, 8 years old, in tears tonight because of my own football club. Not because we have lost in the last minute, but because of the single handed most stupid decision a professional sports club has made. We have beaten Arsenal and almost Man City, two clubs we couldn’t possibly spy on due to the measures in place, that should show how ridiculous this whole decision was. The results of the 3 games we have admitted speaks volumes of the decision we have made. The club seriously needs to come out with some PR, forget appeals and lawyers, that ship has sailed. A complete refund to the fans of the whole season is the first thing that should be brought in. I sit here tonight becoming more frustrated at my own club than anything or anyone else. I want to know who is accountable for this. Assuming it was Tonda who sanctioned this he can fuck off. I do however take huge anger at the fact Hull have not just been promoted. Middlesbrough being reinstated is a complete kick in the bollocks. EFL couldn’t possibly not play the most expensive game in football. The questions I have unanswered. 1.)Have Oxford and Ipswich come out with evidence, if so, why did we admit it? 2.) Who authorised it? 3.) Are we at risk of being taken to court by our own players? Imagine running through a brick wall like they have the last 21 games, to be let down by the club like this. They have been robbed of premier league wage increases etc. 4.) logistically how do they play this game on Saturday? Hull are at a huge disadvantage now having prepared to play us,

I assume we’ve got a 24 hour delay to proceedings because the panel spent the first day pissing themselves at Middlesbrough?

Great news for Ross. Would love to see him score to get us up and get some World Cup minutes. Deserves it after what he has been through to get back to this point.

Yes, sorry. 552 and 526 are the last saints blocks top tier. Going with the lad (block 526) so prob wouldn’t have selected on the segregation if I chose and didn’t just chose best available, but it will be a good experience for him nonetheless. My mate is a Hull fan and the blocks against current segregation haven’t been sold by Hull yet, so it possibly will move along a bit if we sell before them.

Think that’s allocation. Not sure any left in bottom tier now. I could only get top today.

Answering my own question based on the marvellous AI. Maybe useful for some of you. Says we have blocks 522-547 in upper tier. 232-252 level 2 125-144 bottom tier.

What blocks do we have? As in what range? I picked my category and got them to auto select as was booking for a few. Look good seats but on half way so assume right by Hull fans?

What a great football day, Middlesbrough are continuing to make themselves the laughing stock of the footballing world, and Gary Neville’s lot are ballsing it up again at Salford.

Can someone with more brains and pull than me organise a huge tifo depicting Middlesbrough as a bunch of cry babies. I’d love to see our end unveil that at Wembley.

Honestly this is getting pathetic now, I’d genuinely be embarrassed if I was a Boro fan with these pleas and begging to be reinstated. Were obv going to the final, but in the incredibly unlikely scenario we are thrown out, Hull go up directly. The small solace from losing to Hull will be playing these fucking morons next season and giving them another beating.

You can’t compare the play off final and the repercussions of that to that pointless trophy. Plus their error is far easier to prove.

The statement tells you all you need to know. We are not being thrown out. They state they want the final on the 23rd and the hearing might be heard as late as the 19th. There is therefore no chance we are kicked out, as the fallout from changing the opponent for Hull at such short notice would be far worse. I would be pretty confident all 3 sides involved no for certain that the final is Saints Hull and the EFL are putting on this stunt to look serious. As usual it’s the fans that suffer, logistical nightmare now to sort transport and tickets etc with such short notice.

People surely don’t still think we’re being thrown out or the date is changing do they? Absolutely no chance. Unless Gibson has information he has not released, which I doubt as the press up there have leaked anything they good (including illegal information about Will’s spending) he has no chance. He will get a small pay off which is what he is after.

Will is going to be absolutely loaded after this. He can sue Middlesbrough and take a pay off from Saints if he takes the brunt and denies anyone giving him orders to go. Saw people wanting him to have sympathy, he’s laughing his way to the bank.

Starting in the Prem on minus might mean we at least beat the Derby record next season then. 🤣

Assume any points have to be applied only if we are in EFL? So can’t see that happening if we beat Hull.
