I?m thinking Wrexham will be all over it if they let Boro go to final without a semi final again over two legs it?s a cheat - that?s what I?d think to be fair

I mean Boro lost but for me unfair advantage if they go through as wrexham would now be 6th I think in league standings.

Seems the Championship is as bent as our Premier League and Scottish Premier League.
Years ago corruption used to be associated with South American, Italy and Spanish football. Now it?s reached this country it?s even worse than the others.

The Saints admitted to the same offence in their Oxford and Ipswich games. Shameless behaviour and expulsion is the only option.

What a bloody mess this is

Boro players on the beach. Saints sold 37k tickets with fans booking hotels and Hull still not sure who they will be playing until after today's appeal, with just 72hrs to ko

I have a feeling that Southampton will have the decision over turned at todays appeal, if not the ko must be put back until next Thursday at the earliest

Was the training session an open session, if so anyone could have filmed the event or was there an element of trespass.

As I understand the law says tresspass is a civil matter, so the EFL should not be involved until any proceedings are held in a court, but I may be wrong on this.

If the session was open, there should be no case to answer.

To expel Southampton from the play off final in disapropiate and who would compensate their supporters for out of pocket expenses. If their appeal fails then is there time to invalidate the ticket sold by Southampton to allow Middlesbrough to re-sell the tickets.

It looks like the EFL may have given an unfair advatage to Hull in terms of support on the day.

The powers that be certainly know how to cause confusion.Southampton supporters with tickets,travel & hotels booked and Boro
supporters with nothing arranged.Game scheduled for this weekend? I don't think so.

All I know Vintage is if the eejits came down Gawthorpe to video what goes on in our sessions they would learn the square root of pfhuck all.

Yes VC, you are right. Trespass is a tort and a matter for the civil courts, not the criminal courts. You are liable, as with any tort, for the damages done on the property, with nominal damages awarded if there was no damage.

In my youth, playing around the mills, there always signs saying “trespasses will be prosecuted”. All incorrect but we didn’t know any better.

A mate of mine is a Middlesbrough fan and he says he's watched the team train from the other side of the fence and he says it is not private land.

I'm astonished the Saints went all "mea culpa" but having been warned twice before, are they bonkers?

[Swissclaret]

I think that there is a fundamental difference - a spectator is not governed by Article 127 that the clubs have signed up to. If you or I filmed them, there could be no complaint if it is open to the public.

A football club cannot plead that. They are in breach of their own rules and regulations and must, therefore, face sanctions.

It's all bollox, we've had nearly a full season (36 PL games) in which to watch and learn how to counteract, the admittedly very effective, Arsenal corner routines. Made no difference, they scored from one after just 37 minutes.

The answer is simple but very hard to put into practice mon ami. Think of two big, physically strong lads who can jump high and head a ball while using their arms like helicopter blades.

Think Mee, Tarkowski, Collins, Brian Miller, Tommy Cummings mon ami, sadly we don't have that skill set, plus we had a two game rookie in the nets and the Arsenal lads pull out all the tricks which referees have shown a blind eye to all season long.

[Vintage Claret]

It is a sad state of affairs when a Diving and whinging club that is ARSEnal can win the premier league with the assistance of the incompetent referee's and their video collegues. While the unfashionable clubs such as Burnley are unfairly punished for even a minor transgression.

We are by far to excepting of the poor standard of refereeing, Pace should be raising his / our frustration to the appropiate authorities when we see incompetance that was on display on Monday night.

They?d have learned we trained without goalposts. 😂
