I will probably watch a few games to witness (hopefully) the poor attendances, thanks to all the things going on in the Good Old US of A. I really do tip my hat to all those from this country who are spending shed loads of money following England and Scotland to no avail. FIFA and the DJT cult have a lot to answer for.

Just the think, JF agreed to move from a Championship club to League One Saints, albeit as a consequence of a £1m transfer fee.

Or if his older brother had succumbed to drink

Not sure he would be a nobody, probably now in jail or bumped off by some guy/s he had frauded. Ironically he was led towards his way of life/doing business by Roy Cohn who was a homosexual who, apparently, had a 'thing' about Trump.

Goes right to the crux of the matter and fully represents the deep disappointment felt by all Saints supporters, many of whom will either give up going to St Marys or forgo following the Saints away from home. Those of us who blindly continue watching the team will carry the scars of the event for years to come and the Commercial team at St Marys will have a hell of a job promoting the club to sponsors. Likewise trying to convince new players to come here will be a challenge probably only overcome by offering larger payments within a restricted operating budget. I still firmly believe that the punishment did not fit the crime but we have to live with life's realities.

I am staying in a darkened room for the forseeable future having dreamed that Saints have been denied the opportunity to contest the Championship Play Off after one of their Green Party associates had been spotted exploring the Flora & Fauna on Teeside.

No way will Perez be here next season. He will have a queue of clubs both here and in Germany willing to pay decent money both in transfer and wages to sign him up. I put him in the same category as Shilton and Niemi in all the time I have watched Saints. He will be sorely missed.

Being a Saints fan for many, many years, I have experienced quite a few ups and downs. The downs have generally dominated but only served to make the occasional ups even more enjoyable. Playing so well at the end of the season, beating Fulham and Arsenal and going toe to toe with Man City in front of a magnificent band of supporters, looking forward to another shot at the Premier League at Wembley on Saturday and gaining the respect of a lot of neutrals, made me extra proud to be a Saints fan. I also thought that with a few new players, we could replicate Sunderland and Leeds performances in the Prem. Having reached that level of pride and expectation, it came as a massive shock to tumble back down to a feeling of despair, allied to a sense of aggrievement that the punishment did in no way fit the 'crime'. As someone on this forum has said, it is like parking your car on a double yellow line, paying the fine, and then losing your driving licence for a year or two. Like many on here I went through the turmoil of the Branfoot and Rupert Lowe eras and the club eventually moved forward. These things take time and I am at an age when I dont expect the good times to return in my lifetime. I sincerely hope the younger supporters do have the opportunity to once again experience the joy of feeling on top of the world supporting the Saints. I will renew my season ticket next year but expect to see quite a few empty seats as a consequence of this affair.

But Leicester had the glow of a Premier League title as has Blackburn who's fans have been up in arms about their Chicken Farm owner for some time. Throw Sheff Weds in the mix too.

If we had lost to Boro there is a chance that the 'Spying' may have been lost in the passage of time. Similarly if the dice rolled in our favour and we had made the second automatic spot there would have been no need to 'spy' on Boro unless Ipswich made a fuss. All 'IFS' and 'Maybe's' though.

Ridiculous reaction!!

Cant see how Solak caused the problem unless he was actively involved. Careful what you ask for as there are worse owners than Solak about.

Ramsdale wont return as he will be on twice the wage at a Prem club and we will need the money from his transfer fee.

Hopefully Hull win convincingly on Saturday It will really be interesting our two games against Boro next season

I wonder if there is anything in our Sponsors deal which means that bringing their names into disrepute means contracts are cancelled and repayments have to be made? Meantime absolute silence on the Saints website.
