As suspected, Tonda and most likely Spors at the centre of this. Dragan might be fuming but for him to let this happen/not know is negligent at best. Time to sell up.

They probably thought admitting it would get them a lesser punishment like it helped Leeds. Clearly the EFL want to set a precedent. Putting Boro through reeks of corruption though but it's hardly surprising given their Chief Exec is on the board.

There was text message evidence

The Athletic reporting that some players are looking into legal action against the club.

At the end of the day Spors has to carry the can. He appointed him and they are close. Unfortunately both will be gone now.

Interesting that Boro get to benefit from all of this but not Oxford or Ipswich

I'm not a season ticket holder anymore but no chance I'd be renewing if I was. Absolute shambles.

Yep, that shouldn't have anything to do with this case

Football Martin is an absolute weapon, wouldn't listen to anything he says.

I would be tempted to stick with Wood. Stephens is better on the ball but we've really struggled with McBurnie this season, especially in that first game. Wood is our most physical defender to try and counter that.

If anything it was probably the opposite. Their manager claimed he had to change their system because of it. And they battered us! (Without scoring)

Well it does matter in the grand scheme of things. Do you think the punishment would be the same if we still had the footage and used it to help us beat them 5-0 in the first leg? Surely the panel would use that against us.

Not sure how anyone can think that what we've done is worse than Leicester cheating for multiple seasons, gaining a huge advantage over every other team in the league (when they won it that is)

No doubt this will be part of the mitigation in relation to proportionate punishment

Because other teams don't give a fuck. And as I said earlier, most of them have probably done their own spying in one way or another before. Or we just haven't actually done this before...
