Sounds like they have a bit of a backlog. They'll get to us eventually when it suits.

Anyone know if Tonda is back from Germany? I'm assuming he would have gone home last week to see his wife and baby. Has he been seen at Staplewood? Asking for a friend.

Still, at least he's back early and, if he is fit, won't have to worry about jet lag.

I've heard Gibbo has asked for a bit more time to make his decision.

Remind me again, who is Tonda Eckert and what's he been charged with?

Haven't we been punished enough?

The silence is deafening.

It has to be today surely especially if it's a lengthy ban. The FA must give us at least the whole of this week to appoint a replacement whether that is a temporary replacement from within the club or a permanent new manager. The way this whole saga has been handled so far I'll not be holding my breath.

Does he not realise that, had it not been for us spying (I use the term spying in the loosest terms possible), they would not have been granted their second chance to appear in the Play-Off Final? Maybe he should address his disappointment to the manager of Boro who resided over a team who put in one of the weakest, most inept performances I've ever seen at Wembley especially considering the magnitude of what was at stake. He could then have given Kim Heldberg something to really cry about.

Cheers that was a great watch with two very credible guests especially the legal guy.

It was but the Independent Panel decided it was concocted later as a means to get off with the charges. They now hope a new panel will have a different viewpoint. My understanding is that the new panel will consist of very experienced high court judges.

I see the FA have spoken out against Man City following them being found guilty and stated they will step in where appropriate so sounds like they could well get involved.

Big own goal by Burnham and he really should know better.

They used this argument and it was kicked out by the Independent Panel so not sure why they're going with it again. I thought that anything in the original case could not be repeated now and they have to come up with new evidence supporting their grounds in the appeal.

Be interesting to see what happens in the next match Peretz is fit if Ramsdale comes in and plays brilliantly.
