They'll be resting players tonight so they're fresh for the final 😂

It will take an unprecedented shift in the laws of spacetime for us to win tomorrow.

I bet he is after stirring up all this shite!

If we go a few goals up I presume the chant will be 'Second, and you ****ed it up, second and you ****ed it up"? Which would also underline that where they are is not the result of one game and us drawing 0-0 against them..

Because they’ve deluded themselves beyond belief.

And managers, don’t forget. Managers don’t matter either. So to placate the mob we should assume Tonda knew all about it, give him the boot and just let Jack Stephens take over for the play-offs. All that matters is what players you’ve got, so you can stick anyone in charge and you’ll get the same results. Unless you’re Rangers of course. Or Celtic. Or Man Utd. Or Norwich. Or Saints. Or anyone

That's good, over confident and Boro definitely favourites to win they are the Hollywood of cheating. I am sure Boro have been involved in corruption but will research later.

My son plays on training pitch with Academy talent ID so reconnaissance no problem.

I think Larin and Stewart will be on form tonight. They need correct delivery and both give us option for tap in or header.

Eastleigh away ole ole Great thing about the National League is their training grounds will be more accessible

The rumour I heard was they are planning to put us in the Hampshire league with Blackfield and Hythe & Dibden.

Given we don't have to play in such a way as to prove we haven't gained an advantage from any training observed I think we're going to see a very different side tonight. We won't be as passive. They'll have emotionally exhausted themselves with all the drama they've created and their inability to take advantage of us not showing up for 45 minutes. 4-0 to Saints.

Boro fans (online) are convinced they will be playing in the final no matter what.

Hope everyone's looking forward to our last EFL game before we're booted into the national league

There's no upside to the club trying to control the narrative. Complying fully with the EFL investigation also includes not trying to prejudice the case in public. Boro have been loud and public which harms them later because Saints can point to the fact that they're trying to influence the process publicly including the outcomes of it. You would imagine the people they hire in to run the process are going to have legal backgrounds and will know this. There's also the reality that it might wind up in a real court of law if either side disputes the decision at which point some of Middlesbrough's public statements are going count against them.

The game will be won on Mannings set pieces. I totally understand why Blackmore gave his vote as player of the season. What a turnaround for someone who used to get a grumble from fans when he played. Massive game tonight and us being the 12th man need to give it our very best. Can’t wait for this game and let’s hope every supporter stays behind to give this brilliant team deserved round of applause on their lap of honour. 3-1 Stewart, Larin & Wood

Before the media go clutching their pearls about our spies perhaps someone should ask the question why media favourites Ipswich got over 60% more penalties than the next team and more than 3 times the number we got...

Hull beating Millwall was the best result for us not just because I fancy our chances more against Hull but that really match really was a warning to not underestimate any opposition just because we're now playing the home leg.

Given tactics don’t matter the surprise here is that anyone bothered doing it in the first place or that anyone even noticed let alone care about it

Using the word "bespoke" to describe things that are not bespoke. Or, to put it another way: fucking ignorant fuckers.

Makes a weird squeaky sound when you bite him.

Yes, I’ve been thinking about this. Whilst there wasn’t an explicit rule back then, they were simply charged (and fined) under a more general one, which oddly is also being applied this time round. There is little precedent here though as they were fined for multiple admitted breaches, whereas ours could literally be one act by a rouge employee. So we could end up with a slap on the wrists and a sacked analyst to a £500k fine and possibly even points deducted.

How’s this working out?
