Did we do no background checks on this guy? Bit of a silly question really 🙂

Rather than come here for a career in football why didn't he just join MI5?

Not sure but I don't think it was Salt because I believe I read he refused to do it. Might be wrong on that.

Ah fuck it....off with his head!

None of this gets mentioned in the press. I wonder why.

Oh I think they worked hard to find the judges they wanted.

No, I'm still in the absolutely fuming mode.

The reason I say this is because it's widely accepted this spying goes on among young analysts at most if not all clubs. It seems that it's almost an unwritten law that nothing is done about this, it is just tolerated as part and parcel of the game (and I've been told this by someone I know who started as a junior analyst and worked up to a high level position at a Premier league club). Therefore, the fact that Boro set this up and then reported it to the EFL and carried out their feeding frenzy of the press means they have blown this whole shit storm up for their own gain.

So the entrapment part of this is fine with you then?

No but it creates a shit storm for Boro to answer.

You missed out the main shit Boro got up to - it was a clear case of entrapment instigated by them so they could make mischief. And haven't they milked it for all its worth! Shysters. Worse than anything we've done.

I said at the start of this we should have done a forensic check on Salt's phone to find out who he'd been talking to and texting.

I honestly don't think the EFL is aware of this and, for whatever reason, we didn't make it a huge part of our defence.

He was there thanks to the tip off from the Boro guy who we sacked in December. This is the spot they chose for their photo opportunity and the rest is history. We walked into the trap but not sure why we aren't kicking up about this.

Not sure how this hasn't got into the public domain and been discussed on Talk Sport who have been across just about every aspect of the case except this.
