| Championship play off final on 19:54 - May 19 by heatwave | What are they expecting from the appeal? The best they could get surely is the 4 point deduction removed after admitting the offences. |
Admitting the offences, they admitted spying on three teams this season. |  | |  |

They will be very experienced and qualified KCs apparently. Not that that matters much other than a fresh approach may judge that the punishment doesn’t fit the crime. Could be interesting. |  |

It was not a one off, spying three times this season says they are serial law breakers, they have got let off lightly. |  | |  |

The decision is the right one BUT the turmoil this is going to cause will be immense. Cancelling all the Saints tickets Reissuing to Boro supporters Fans cancelling their hotel and travel arrangements Boro fans having to arrange both Hotels / Rail operators having to generate refunds. Or do they? Saints fans suing the club for loss of funds when non-refundable All in a matter of days! It would be so much easier if Saints won the appeal????😏 |  |

| Championship play off final on 09:17 - May 20 with 1132 views | felixstowe_jack | Amazing how quickly they made the decision. Pity the PL can't make decisions with the same speed. How many years have Man City been waiting? |  |

Southampton have appealed the expulsion,even though though they admitted to the spying charges,AND other spying offences in a flagrant disregard of the rules and laws ,how can they hope to win any appeal If they are reinstated ,they are being rewarded for breaking the rules and laws of the EFL that were put in place to deter teams from this kind of cheating , this would destroy any confidence or respect for the rules and laws of football and the EFL in general and putting two fingers to every other team who abide by the rules and laws Cheating and law breaking cannot be tolerated or rewarded under any circumstances , they knew what they were doing was wrong and should accept the initial ruling Once again evidence that money is spoiling the game |  | |  |
| Championship play off final on 11:12 - May 20 with 1038 views | 1983 | What a mess to get into.... They reckon not getting promoted they lose out on £200 million pound. The fans could turn on the club,hotels booked, trains booked, time off work...etc. The club would have to at least sack the manager (their best for years & years) Laughing stock of the footballing world. Middlesbrough games will always be a grudge match now forever. Portsmouth fans..... cardiff city doesn't look that bad now |  |

I’m sure I could find a way they were implicated in this fiasco, somewhere, somehow. It’s got their trade mark stamped all over it😁 |  |

IMO they have been spying all season and by admitting to a couple of games they didn't win they were hoping for a lenient sentence. |  | |  |
