Not many have made a wrong call that’s cost potentially £200 million though.

Whilst I am annoyed that the club has maintained radio silence since last Wednesday I must admit to thinking that perhaps a few days to process, take stock then let the clubs side of the story out when the dust Middlesbrough and their press lap dogs kicked up has settled might not be a bad thing. We’ll see but I’m encouraged by FF’s posts today.

Au contraire Rodney……I mean LD 🤣

I get serious Danny Dyer vibes from LD’s posts 🤣

Depends when season ticket renewals are programmed for I reckon.

To be honest he could run the operation anyway. I mean what are the FA gonna do, confiscate his phone and laptop and ban him from talking to anyone from the club? It’s not bloody school. It’s like those touchline bans with a manager sat in the stand, that’s totally pointless given the number of staff involved these days.

We could get old Woy Hodgson in on a short term deal 🤣

Yep fair point.

Well not being funny but if he’s banned for say 3 months or less aren’t they likely to have an interim manager like Lallana (no I don’t want him but he’s the only name I can think of) while he serves the ban? Obviously if it’s 6 months to a year that changes everything.

Don’t worry, they’ll remember us when they want us to renew Season Tickets and buy the new home and away shirts !!

Yes I have and it fills me with more dread than the backlash of keeping Tonda

So based on absolutely nothing at all do we think the club had decided to use this long Bank Holiday weekend to gauge opinions on Tonda after the initial anger had subsided? Or have they had to get their ducks in a row legally in order to sack him without having to pay him off due to gross misconduct? Or are they just bloody incompetent and don’t give a stuff about the fan base?

FFS Southampton, if you are sacking him or keeping him issue a bloody statement either way......the silence since last Wednesday night is deafening. I assume there have been no sighting of the lesser spotted Tonda in the past few days. Possibly gone back to Germany for a while, dont know if hes married and has kids but if so might be best to get them out the way for a few weeks.

Well you can be sure it wasn’t Tonda who signed off his expenses claims……

get out of the sun man ffs, its frying your brain. There isnt a chance in hell he comes here.

Sacked or not, I don't know, lets face it he isnt trying this again whatever happens and if the players want to play for him.... I think he'll be banned by the FA yes, but I dont think it'll be a long ban. If SFC did NOT make him aware of this 72 hour rule they are as much cupable. If this rule was in place worldwide then its a different story, and who knows, as a result of this it may well be going forward. I do kind of like the siege mentality angle, its something Fergie spent years on at United after all.

I think we are getting into the realms of fantasy here tbh

This Winnie guy probably didn’t show any bias, just like the woman who’s company had represented Boro in their case against ex Saint Gary Monk BUT surely to Christ they could have picked 3 people who had no links to them or Southampton whatsoever couldn’t they? FFS.

That’s bullshit. Had we played and won the final tomorrow then got chucked out fair enough but there’s no guarantee we would have beaten Hull.

Can they not keep their fkin noses out now please !!!

I’m afraid that report is pretty damming, no way he stays.

I take issue with his “every single game” assumption. Unless he’s aware of the set up of every teams training facilities many would not be visible to anyone to spy.

Yes but this is back to that ridiculous gray area where you can do it 73 hours before a game but not 71 hours before. Absolutely crazy

I think Larin will be here. What was the agreed price? 3-4 million? He’s Championship standard, I think the club will want to keep him.

He'll go on and become a great manager. This is all very raw at the moment, and its raw to us. I would think a German 1st Division club for example wont give two hoots. If there is a ban can the FA impose one outside of their jurisdiction? He may get a 6 month ban over here, doubtful he will in Europe.
