This. Feels like complete catharsis. I’m over it now!

Really looking forward to playing them next season.

Lots of crying going on. 😂😂😂

Very VERY pleased with that. Those whinging cunts deserved NOTHING from this season or this game.

YESSS!!! LOL FUCKING L. FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING WANKERS.

No.

It’s all set up for Hackney to come on and score/assist the winner imo.

Yep, they should have let this all play out and then demote us back down to the champ if we had won it. Boro should not be benefitting out of this whatsoever, and Hull shouldn’t have been fucked about. As much as I don’t like what (a section of) our club has done, I equally dislike the way it’s all been handled.

Would’ve been ok I reckon, Big fine and likely suspended points penalty possibly bigger than the one we got. 6 maybe. It’s fact we were caught doing it whilst in a k.o competition. There’s precedent for getting chucked out of those as the punishment. It’s why - whilst my gut instinct told me we wouldn’t get thrown out because of the disproportionate ultra punitive effect - I always had a nagging worry that we would. On another note, I think we should’ve played the final, with the investigation/hearing being conducted in the usual timescales ,us being retrospectively denied promotion if we won it, and Hull being awarded promotion instead. Oh well, water under the fucking bridge now but still got a weird numb feeling about this whole embarrassing, tawdry episode. Bring on the head rolling.

Plus 1. I’ll add that I really wish I wasn’t associated with this club right now and it’s gonna take a looong time for that feeling to fully dissipate assuming it ever does.

If in doubt about anything regarding this Football Club, always go with the incompetence option.

That would be my exact reading of the situation. Tonda did it not knowing it was a problem, the club was too stupid to set him right or too ignorant to know he was doing it.

How thoroughly, thoroughly embarrassing this is. I’m not THAT bothered we don’t get to potentially have a crack at beating our own low points record next season (FWIW I don’t think we would beat it, although equally would expect us to probably not stay up). I fucking well AM THAT BOTHERED about now being damned by association with this wincingly embarrassing scandal.

Agreed HK my old pal. Which Middlesbrough fan are you specifically referencing here though?

It’s been a looong week.
