But conversely they never had a set punishment in place for the offence. Saints will likely argue that the punishment is too dynamic depending on the circumstances.

What Sky have referenced is that there can be no further appeal via the Court of Arbitration for Sport. What Parsons has done is to publicly mention worse crimes that have resulted in a lighter punishment, and then to put a figure on our potential losses and as such attempt to swing the court of public opinion back into our favour the way Boro have. He didn’t need to mention other clubs and punishments, we’ve already speculated on those privately on here for example. If the appeal doesn’t go our way it won’t be a legal attempt via the C.A.S., it’ll be direct legal action between the EFL and SFC, and that £200 million figure will be the crux of it all.

To say Tonda has bought the club, and the game, into disrepute would be the understatement of the century. There is absolutely zero chance he stays after this. He’ll be gone for Gross Misconduct alone, and that’s before the FA seemingly introduce their own penalties against him.

That statement actually smacks of laying the groundwork for a legal claim against the EFL IMO.

Somebody pointed out a few pages ago that by not stating the possible punishments as part of the rules and regulations to the playoff games, that the EFL had breached Consumer Rights Laws. Seems insignificant compared to all the issues going on currently but if a solicitor was willing to take the case on then yes, a class action lawsuit could be filed against the EFL for the cost of the playoff tickets to anybody that bought one. Including Boro fans.

Like most things in life my gut tells me this thing is going to get worse before it gets better.

Knowing that Peretz, Leo and THB won’t be here next season is a tough pill to swallow. Especially Peretz, keepers like that are hard to come by.

We’re already the leagues biggest laughing stock, let’s not make it worse.

If the club had even the slightest bit of sense, they would offer renewals at the absolute lowest price possible to win over the fans a little after this complete shit show. Knowing the imbeciles running our club though they’ll probably put the prices up.

Agreed. If there was a possibility of us being thrown out, then our semi final simply should not have gone ahead until the investigation and possible appeal. The EFL have made an absolute pigs ear out of this whole thing, and Hull are the ones suffering the most.

We’ve upset our fair share of kids tonight tbf.

Imagine being stupid enough to spy on Oxford to gain an advantage, but still playing Baz in goal.

At least amongst all this embarrassment and outrage, there is still solace to be had in the fact that at least we don’t live in Middlesbrough.

Yep. The players as well, all that blood sweat and tears, and for what? To find out some cunts behind the scenes have been up to no good and it’s all snatched away from you. I genuinely expect pretty much the entire team to hand in transfer requests after this. Why the fuck would you want to play for a club that does this to you.
