Think Bielsa did it himself though.

Not sending a load of teenagers like some Fagan figure!

What you reckon Bielsa was shining up trees? Somehow doubt it 🙂

FFS SFC, get off the fucking canvas and do something. 

Shit at spying. Shit at defending ourselves. Shit at communicating with the fans. Shit at understanding why any of this really matters to so many people. Shit at knowing how angry fans are going to be until they’re all gone. Absolute charlatans. 
 

If I was a lawyer with time on my hands and some spare cash I’d organize a class action suit and bankrupt the fuckers before a fan-based buyout starting again in the Conference South. 
 

As for other fans, beyond the gobshite noise on social media, I’ve had loads of mates who support other teams get in touch and say it’s really harsh and sets a stupid precedent. 
 

Apart from all that I’m not angry at all. 

You clearly have never seen a Rocky movie.

Even if true he clearly can't reveal anything. Think it's a wind up myself.

Well he’s clearly not doing fuck all about it so might as well reveal it and let nature take its course.

The information I’ve seen is 100% true and is from a former senior high court Judge via a friend who is a KC and Judge. It clearly wouldn’t make us any friends though!

Any idea roughly what time we'll start to see the BAD GATEWAY message?

Big news. Injunction started. Lord Pannick has just arrived.

Maybe Mr Winnie didn't like me questioning whether as an independent panel member he should writing about this case and self promoting and questioning whether he was 'acting in good faith' on LinkedIn

No. 

This board is starting to go insane, like we thought of the Boro board about a week ago. Just a glimpse of how weird this place would have got had Boro been caught spying on us.

Nope. I'd feel pretty flat if the club pursued it to be honest, as it continues to drag our name through the mud. They need to take their medicine here and let Hull get on with it.

By all means, take some action in the summer if there is a case - but leave football alone now. We had our chance and we let them tickle our bellies.

Is this going to be a universally hated event, a bit like Cersei Lannister using wildfire to destroy half of King's Landing?

It certainly wasn't wise and that the optics don't look good, but it isn't a serious enough irregularity to bypass the arbitration only agreement we have with the EFL imo. 

WTF are 'optics'?

 

xG x xS x 5 tons of bullshit?

[Pamplemousse]

Maybe we can join forces with Milwall and Hull

It's quite clear Middlesbrough have unduly influenced this.

Yep... The number of people taking tongue-in-cheek banter seriously is indeed insane...

I was only kidding 😂😂 Could you actually imagine the KFC meltdown? 

Actually, that sounds quite delicious.

Got a feeling they will, the heat will neuter how Boro like to play.

Is there a way in which we can just allow the final to take its course if Hull are winning, but if Boro are ahead after 80 mins we can land a helicopter on the halfway line and declare the legal challenge then ?

Dragan has been here nearly two days and not a peep. Strange.

Plus the big pitch. They'll be running on fumes after 25 minutes.

I’m out in our back garden, lovely temperature, some GWatkin Perry on the go and reading CAMRA’s guide to Perry. Bank holiday, sunshine, enjoy it.

Just turn the Sky Sports/TNT apps off for a couple of hours tomorrow and then watch McBurnie’s winner at teatime.

I managed to put my plans in the smoke back just in case.

I actually want the Karen’s to go up, finally they’ll have to give up the seat at the EFL top table, plus Gibson won’t be moaning about parachute payments anymore.
