Who needs PR when you are marching triumphantly into the most glorious era of your history?

If there is some interesting mitigating information it makes our defence even more pathetic.

The FA announce their lead investigator...

I'm Rento does come through but he's still young - 18 I think. So hopefully he'll recover and go out on loan again. Probably Goztepe! Does seem to have something about him, so fingers crossed.

So we’re continuing to dither along thinking Tonda will be our manager, when there is a high probability the FA will make an example of him and get rid of him anyway? All on the basis some players, who won’t be at the club anyway, want him to stay. Sounds like a superb Sports Republic strategy to me. Asterick can fuck off as far as I’m concerned.

Understandable when you've got nothing better to do than spend your life smoking crack and drinking meths while waiting for your next benefit cheque

No they dont have to be but worth utilising if players are available. He did a decent job of helping Sunderland get promoted two seasons ago. So is a decent option to look at if Saints are being proactive.

A few days ago playing for 2nds vs Surrey he took the wickets of Burns and Sibley with his first 2 balls and finished with 3 for 13.

I get it that Saints cheated. The 72 hour rule was broken and we gained knowledge to our advantage. However some of the vitriol is laughable and a little unhinged.

Why are you pretending this is an ongoing trial or investigation? It's over, it's finished, we admitted guilt. They are "guilty already". What the "accused have to say" was heard and what they said was "yes, we did it". I hope i never get picked for jury service with you, as you'd be formulating the argument to acquit on your bus journey home 2 hours after the accused had already been sent down.

So you don’t think the PR needs to be improved?

He is 24 and didn't have a great season last year Replacements don't need to be free transfers

He was gash in his loan spell at Ipswich though, but then that could be down to the system he had to play in.

Capsize

How many times do we deserve to be punished as a club? Surely enough is enough now! Stop the bloody witch hunt.

Gibson will be running another media campaign to get Tonda a lengthy ban, this time we need to challenge it and take some control of the narrative. Boro had far too much to say, too much influence at the EFL and a hand on the tiller of the independent panel. IF we do now have a sensible legal team they need to be reminding the football authorities how things work in the real world. We tried humility and guilt, it got us royally shafted, perhaps it's time to advise them of the legal flaws in their processes, to stop listening to bitter Gibson and to wind their fucking necks in. #enoughisenough

Not only that, Boro considered banning all board members but decided against it. So the plan was to keep them apart BUT our Phil went out of his way to tug Steve Gibson on the arm to go somewhere for a quiet chat. The witnesses around said they heard his cheating confession so it was hardly quiet. It’s a real shame Phil couldn’t of said to the court of appeal that he thought Gibbo was a gobby twat and he told him privately to shove his spying accusations up his arse. We would never of got kicked out or docked 4 points if he took this route.

Indeed. Surrey, didn't find them to be an impressive team at all. Their bowling looked distinctly average.

They did a piece on this on the news last night. I particularly enjoyed the damning evidence that one of their apple watches registered the crash and then dialled 999 automatically without them knowing, ensuring that their conversation about removing all evidence of drugs and running away was recorded and used against them

Dan Neil would make sense if Jander/Charles off. Free, only 27 etc

I cannot believe what I am reading. He fessed up to the accuser IN FRONT OF OTHERS... What kind of dimwit does that? Gibbo wouldn't have done that. You do not need to read a crystal ball to know to STFU in a legal preceding. He has had every opportunity to pull back the curtains and speak to the charges... "Oh but he cant do that while the commission is meeting or the FA charges are pending." The same guy that spoke in front of others to hang us... unreal.

They are a weird crowd, quite why they're still going on about us I don't know. They're fools as well, all they are doing is adding spice on our favour for the next match - they got out of the whole affair with everything they wanted from us - whereas us as fans (and the players), and indeed the whole squad will be going for them all guns blazing. You think they'd stop feeding that fire at some points but no 😅

Just your daily reminder that they accepted all charges levied against them. So yeh, I’ve decided they are guilty. You are right.

Still a lot of self righteous boro fans on Reddit continually calling Saints scum. Although I think there are fair few skates mixed in there too.

I am right. You haven’t heard what the accused have to say yet you have decided that they are guilty already. You are no better than “Gibbo.”
