Thanks for sharing! Didn't realise there was a longer interview so it's interesting to see what missed the cut in the first release

https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/26577430.southamptons-eckert-fa-misconduct-hearing-spygate-scandal/?ref=rss This is a brilliant article from Alfie House. It has the nuance and, more importantly, context that so many other commentators miss. Blackmore, take note.

Anyone know if an appeal can be made to CAS this time around? I know it wasn't possible for the EFL charges

Anyone else listened to that episode of 72+? I worry if Jobi McAnuff has any part in the FA's panel. Blackmore also arse-licking the others: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0pc1trf?partner=uk.co.bbc&origin=share-mobile

I remember most of that narrative from the time and it sounds plausible but it is definitely speculative. Why didn't the Echo, at the very least, report on any of this? (They may have, I just can't find it)

Was this confirmed as fact? I can remember it being discussed at the time, but didn't know if it was just speculation. I didn't see it reported, hence the ask.

This doesn't just relate to the Leeds case, does it?

Can we pin this post? This is spot on.

Imagine spending your time waiting for someone to post about Bournemouth on another team's fan forum. You've just won your first ever European game – is this how you celebrate?

So: • Peretz is #1 • Ramsdale is backup #1 and training keeper • Long is #2 • Jones is training keeper All semantics, but good to know that Ramsdale will likely play if Peretz doesn't.

It was the original point, so not irrelevant. But you raise an otherwise valid point – is he in our top 2 CMs? Was Charles in our top 2 last season? I think most would say it depended on the scenario. And I think it's the same with JWP. I like Downes and Jander together – they were great at the back end of last season. I think Downes plays deeper when he's next to Jander, whereas next to JWP, he plays further forward. And others on here have said JWP makes those around him better, which certainly appears to be the case. Does that make him top 2? I'd personally rather Downes and Jander if I had to choose from a fully fit squad and with our current formation, but I'm certainly not going to complain if JWP is in the starting XI at one of the others' expense.

Getting the boring stock replies ready: "Yeah, but he's a skate cunt" "He plays crab football" "He's past it" Zzzzzzzzz. Good post – JWP easily in our top eleven players

Thanks! Always thought he was a bit of a dullard (takes one to know one) but he spoke well

Yep. Apart from Wood, Fellows and Manning.
