It's also on you to sort out your (theoretical) behaviour Timmy

Spot on about Gibson, he’s been a great owner. Funny that the enshriners never mention people like him…

“ The onus surely should be on the club, and that's all clubs to protect their own "crown jewels " So if I shoplift it’s on Waitrose for not employing security?

EFL fixtures out 12pm Thurs 25th June

I'm of the view that the EFL should have dealt with the matter after the first leg and awarded Middlesboro a 3-0 win. After all, the transgression was before the first leg and 'Boro would have been able to adjust to suit as they would for a replay.

I'm still in the Southampton have been hard done by camp. I find it bizarre that people such as borough fans could be looking in on the training sessions and nothing would have or has been said. The onus surely should be on the club, and that's all clubs to protect their own "crown jewels " tactics they intend to employ, by ensuring it's done behind closed door. Why not inside the stadium itself? Or inside, as Trigger has said in an indoors facility. I know I'm in a minority, but have to say that if you are careless with your wares, don't be be surprised to get mugged.

Yeah you hear a drone you move the training session inside. These clubs have massive indoor facilities.

Training sessions are pretty noisy too, not sure that a drone would be spotted/heard very quickly and even then, would you be able to stop a session indefinitely? Is it illegal to fly one (I know there are regulations) and how could you know it isn’t a casual person piloting the thing and filming the landscape, as I’m sure you couldn’t prove who the user is, and guess the user wouldn’t necessarily be the recipient of the information.

*but drones go….

Yeah. It drones go FFFFFFZZZZZZZZZZ and everyone looks up at them.

Wonder if anyone has used drones to survey training sessions and pick up the info they want. I guess it would be hard to prove who is controlling a drone and link it to the recipient of the video/audio feed.

Exactly Spit. Big respect for the EFL for making a big yet firm decision and one that sets the benchmark. Anyone sending folk out with a camera probably now telling them to shelve that project for good. It’s so naff it’s unbelievable - such a stupid thing to do.

Mind looks like it happens quite a bit [Link]

Harsh to get kicked out,but that now sets a marker, no cheating if it slightly cheating.

I also watched both games and, yes, Boro' didn't deserve to go through.

Yes, Jack is an interesting bloke MPH and we have been mates for 45 years. He knows everyone in the music business. I once had a few beers with him and another bloke in a Fulham boozer, who I hadn’t realised was Mitch Mitchell until later and met loads of others while with him, Keith Emerson, Richie Blackmore, Ian Anderson, Roy Wood, Chris Farlow and of course all the Quo lads and John Bindon was always fun to be around. Jack even painted the white room where Lennon made the imagine video and he was hated by Chuck Berry for some reason. He appeared on the Old Grey Whistle Test and played to full stadiums in the US of A when he was vocalist for Savoy Brown. Amazing that people still remember him as the bloke who sung the hedgehog Song at the Reading Festival

Boro lost to a cheating team so their loss shouldn’t be held against them.

Also, if Spurs do get relegated, they actually will be playing in Europe next season, as they will have to play Wrexham, Cardiff, and Swansea… 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿😬

Just can’t bear Farah Williams voice, she shouldn’t be a commentator as she can barely speak English

OI - I don’t doubt that, but cheats are cheats, and if there are not stiff consequences, we might as well just allow spying. It makes a refreshing change to see harsh penalties imposed - as someone said earlier, fining them £200k when promotion could be worth £200m wouldn’t be a fit punishment - it’s a pity that Man City have managed to avoid all penalties despite all of the apparent rule breaches…

a4e - I watched both games, Boro deserved to win as much as Spurs deserve to be in Europe next season. Southampton were clearly better but other teams than Hull are available to support.

Postie - they’ll hitchhike or hire cars or anything they can… £400 sounds cheap compared to the cost of moving around North America during the World Cup…

OI - it’s hardly Boro’s fault that Southampton cheated or got thrown out, and for all we know, Southampton’s spying might be what gave them the intel they needed to win that playoff…. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Just checked out BA flight from Newcastle to Heathrow one way this sat just under £ 400 must be mad for borro and there’s engernering works on the trains as well might as well stay at home

I'm definitely Hull till full time on Saturday.
