We would have been faced with this had we not beaten Hull in the final anyway…..just need to make sure we get top dollar for those with a few years left on their contracts.

I think if Hull win I’ll celebrate harder than if we had. What a sudden depressing end to an incredible few months in the life of a Saints fan. Another breakfast coming up in silence, with my also royally pissed off daughter.

Because a serious relationship, where love is unconditional, always has its ups and downs... but that love conquers all.

Probably been answered - so it's spying 72hrs +.....what is before then? Reconnaisance? It's a ridiculous punishment for watching some fucking training sessions, and if rumours of players seeking to sue the club if we don't win the appeal (nailed on) then where the hell are we at next season? I'll be there regardless, as i'm sure most of us will. I'd just started to really like this group of players too....just in time for them all to walk off in to the sunset holding some other clubs supporters hands. We could still have lost to Hull and that would happen anyway i suppose.

Has anyone signed yet?

I’m going to have another beer and catch up on the last 5 pages. Cheers!

The situation we’re in is a virtue signaller’s wet dream….

Dm and can pass info on from my friend…

Sorted, but still had the issue of it saying I didn’t have permission to proceed or something once through waiting room. Then clicked on ticket link again and it worked.

Actually, even with a 6 point deduction next season if we lose to Hull....with 3 to 8 now competing for play-offs i'd definitely back us to be in the mix again next season, depending on the squad etc.

One positive that some of us can take from this saga is that is gives grounds to up the alcohol content until this deeply stressful situation is resolved.

I’d still be interested to know how on earth you prove it’s systemic …. Unless someone has kept a diary and/or there’s an obvious paper trail. Just cctv of someone at a game or training ground won’t be enough. How would you put anything credible enough together and for that to be reviewed and challenged on the timeframe available would also be impossible. Surely.

Appreciate your honesty, and no doubt he'll get done if obvious. Probably shows what i'd make up in my head given that situation..!

I don't disagree at all, but we've all stuttered in situations i'm sure. There's such a thing as coincidence, as in he doesn't get his words out and it's to someone with a stutter. If he's obviously looked at him and you can clearly see he's doing it to be twat, then banged to rights. I'm not for one minute saying he's not done it, i'm just saying you could say "It's a pressure moment, i've gone to say something to him and changed my mind while saying it which has lead to it appearing to be taking the piss". Again unless it's clearly enunciated and obvious to the contrary. I mean, he probably did it!

how easy is that to defend though? How many times have any of us got tongue tied or stuttered a bit when talking? "I was hot, lots going on around me, wasn't sure if he said something to me, lost train of thought, started saying something and then changed what i was going to say..." Unless you say it slowly and really enunciate it, you could say it was the pressure and the situation.

Need to get the fans together for a rehearsal of this - and sing it as “allez” rather than “ole”!

two things: 1. Get into them 2. Fuck them up. Amen.

As this isn’t a police investigation, or anywhere sodding near it, they surely can’t get hold of any texts / emails etc by force? How on earth would you even prove spying was done elsewhere anyway? Even if the same bloke is seen on cctv, that in itself doesn’t prove anything. just listening to the news this morning is winding me up already. Might need to bring the first beer forward about 8 hours..

Am I allowed to be a bit concerned over the ruling, or should I ask the wife to tell me to stop being a fanny?

Quite, it’s next level hypocrisy all round.

We all know that cheating happens throughout the game these days. “He’s fucking cheated there” has been rebranded as “he’s been clever there”.

Not sure how you’d prove otherwise, without being caught in the act. or unless teams have got clear cctv footage of the same bloke where he shouldn’t be. Then how do you prove it’s him/not doctored footage unless it’s crystal clear? maybe tech these days would make the search easier but that sounds more than a bit tricky.

Did they pass a spliff round the changing room before kick off?

Perhaps the excitement of the second half of the season has added a rose tint to the spectacles.
