| Saints charged with spying 09:48 - May 9 with 115619 views | KensalT | Southampton haven't yet denied these allegations! For anyone who doesn't know Boro caught someone with some very sophisticated cameras and recording equipment spying on one of their training sessions. Apparently Boro are looking into the possibility that Saints have done this to other teams this season. Nightmare timing for the EFL. I can't see any way for them to fudge this |  | | |  |
| Saints charged with spying on 09:16 - May 17 with 3660 views | mart_Goblin | I remember training with Rangers in the early 90’s at Barclays Bank sports ground on Hangar Lane and when we’re jogging around the perimeter to warm up, we noticed a man in the bushes watching us . As we came past him we could clearly see it was David Icke. He wasn’t there long as I remember, but a bit creepy all the same. |  | |  |

If true, that's hardly a deterrent for other clubs getting the same idea.... |  | |  |

Middlesbrough, beaten by Southampton in the semi-final, have been reinstated and will now play Hull City for a place in the Premier League. [Post edited 19 May 18:51]

If they’d changed their name to Chelsea or City they’d have walked away unscathed. Right decision though as it directly impacted their opposition. |  | |  |
