I think we'll have to do a lot better than that. If we admit to sending a junior analyst and he didn't stick within the rules we are in the shit. The only argument is if we had no knowledge that he'd gone there.

They're worried that we'll beat them and their chance of the Prem will have to wait another year. That's what this boils down to. They want us thrown out so they have an easy ride to the Final. Maybe you stop moaning about something you have literally no control over, back your team as we will be doing, and hope your team is the best one on the night. Yes we did it. Probably. There's no smoke without fire. But trying to rush it through before tonight's game shows the amount of confidence they have in their own team.

Tough times ahead. Squeeky bum time tonight.

Who/

I still reckon our line of defence will be something along the lines of: "Yes, like a lot of clubs, we do send out our junior analysts to view opposition training sessions, where publicly accessible vantage points are available, but we always tell them to stick within the governing body rules in doing so. It's down to each analyst to make sure they adhere to the rules and we're disappointed on this occasion that this hasn't happened"

through the book and a humiliating defeat at them tonight!

Simon Jordan adding yet more hysteria.

Simply untrue; every football fan in the world hates saints with a passion and sr clamouring for the club to be dissolved. Maybe... 🤔

And a very long (professional) microphone capable of capturing audio from coaches on the field opposite. Oh and some (professional) (live) streaming equipment.

Boro to start hard and fast again, hope to nick a goal, then dig in.

I'm hoping Charles starts

I'm sure we could rustle up some clandestine equipment so Tonda could still manage the team 'remotely'...;)

I think saints have been incredibly professional since the story broke tbh, unlike Boro. We've tried as best as possible to ignore the surrounding media storm (that boro have been deliberately building for on/off field advantages), and instead just focus on the game. In terms of our first statement, it was exactly what i wanted to see given this was going to be happening whether we wanted it to or not - it gave boro nothing, inflamed the reaction on their side, and gave them an avenue to waste more energy on / distract themselves with etc. Meanwhile Tonda and the team have just been heads down focussing on the game. Ultimately this side will be won on the pitch. I trust Tonda to get the team as prepared as possible given what Boro have created off the pitch, and its on the fans to do their part tonight (i.e. lift the team and rattle boro's).

I've got nothing to do at work so came up with this to Johnny Cash - Hurt 😂 We watched you train today, We saw your masterplan, From bushes with a phone, You played into our hands Boro, don’t you cry, Saints were watching you To Wembley, here we come, The Premier League's in view

Aerosmith..."we're spying from the hedge..."

Bournemouth of the North East

Long shot, but is anyone on here unfortunate enough to live near the Hull training ground and is free/willing to stand outside it for a few hours with some binoculars and a camera phone?

Sounds like within reason we can do what we want to create atmosphere outside the ground, but inside it's a no go. And definitely don't go on the pitch regardless.

It was a false flag operation all along! They got scared they were going to lose so they sent their own guy in to do it just so they could start all this nonsense and try to get us chucked out I knew it

Presumably by buying the kit, we've helped them financially.

Hope Downes and Jander are on it today. Keep calm, play our game and hopefully Azaz, Scienza and the rest of the team are up for it from the off.

Boro section ready

They’re going to be found rocking back and forth in darks rooms tomorrow, murmuring “they’re going to be kicked out, they’re going to be kicked out”

TBF, that does explain why his first priority was changing his clothes.

I thought scousers were the worst when it comes to faux outrage and being hard done by, but these Boro fans are another level.
