Lee On Solent Saint

I fully understand what you are saying, but someone somewhere would have raised a flag regarding this at some point. I just don't believe this is systematic across the leagues in the UK.

The club statement is hardly anything to really bother about either.

Nah, not buying that. If Millwall had been looking at Charlton's training sessions you think mad Nate would let that go?

Agree with that. It would have come out a lot sooner if this was rife in the game. We got caught doing something pathetically stupid, although its been handled it a shit way, the fact is we broke the rules.

Ok. We are going to have to agree to disagree. Neither of us have any proof either way.

If everyone is at it, am sure more teams would have got caught out way before we did.

How can it be worth the gain when we got kicked out of the play off final? We didn't need to spy on teams, we should have been confident enough in our own abilities to beat these teams. And this wasn't in his power to do, he cheated and broke the rules.

We got caught, doesn't matter how, we did it. The punishment far outweighed the crime though. But I would rather see him gone in all honesty. He is one of a number of people that aren't fit to represent this club anymore.

Probably signed off by one of those firms who always bug you asking if you've been involved in an accident in the past 5 years.

I was kind of faltering into him staying after my initial anger subsided about the play off. Although after reading that, I really don't see a situation where he comes out of this still with a job.

Did they ask Rishi Sunak to write that statement? True Polictian's reply.

Am in New York a week after the final, so am lucky am missing most of it. Although it would have been fun to see what the atmosphere would have been like.

Guess the truth will all be revealed in the coming weeks

Judging by the posts from Scienza and Pertez not sure they knew too much about what was going on. I agree that the punishment was harsh but the fallout from this is going to rumble on

Let's also not forget that Bielsa was adored by the media too. It was even laughed off to a degree
