    The actions are so basic lol

     

    'the club will take on board the feedback from FAB' 

     

    Such cop outs 

    Aye. No specific owner of the action. No expected next date of update, no measurables. I work as a senior manager in a corporate business and if I took actions away like this I'd he hung out. 

     

    It's also pathetic if the FAB dont challenge these actions.

    Another thought...

     

    Funny how you can handle 25 charges of spying faster than 115 financial charges

    always one person who bangs on about the 115 charges. 

     

    Completely separate ball game, no comparisons whatsoever. It's a silly comparison.

    Club statement: 20th May 2026 | Southampton FC Official Site

    A statement from Phil Parsons, Chief Executive, Southampton Football Club.

    We have appealed yesterday's decision by the Independent Disciplinary Commission to expel Southampton Football Club from the Sky Bet Championship Play-Offs, and to impose a four-point deduction for the 2026/27 season. Before turning to that appeal, I want to address our supporters, our players, and the wider football community directly and without equivocation.

    What happened was wrong. The club has admitted breaches of EFL Regulations 3.4 and 127. We are sorry to the other clubs involved, and most of all to the Southampton supporters whose extraordinary loyalty and support this season deserved better from the club.

    We have provided our full co-operation to the EFL's investigation and disciplinary process. Following the appeal, we will also be writing to the EFL to volunteer our participation in a working group on the practical application and enforcement of Regulation 127 across the Championship. Contrition without change is hollow, and we intend to demonstrate change.

    On the appeal itself: we accept that there should be a sanction. What we cannot accept is a sanction which bears no proportion to the offence. Whereas Leeds United was fined £200,000 for a similar offence, Southampton has been denied the opportunity to compete in a game worth more than £200 million and one which means so much to our staff, players and supporters.

    We believe the financial consequence of yesterday's ruling makes it, by a very considerable distance, the largest penalty ever imposed on an English football club. Luton Town's 30-point deduction in 2008/09 — to date the most severe sporting sanction in the English game — was levied against a club already in League Two, with no comparable revenue at stake. Derby County's 21-point deduction in 2021 cost them their Championship status. Everton's eventual six-point deduction in 2023/24 followed losses of £124.5 million, a figure dwarfed by what has been taken from Southampton in a single afternoon. The largest financial penalty ever levied by the Premier League, against Chelsea in March of this year, was £10.75 million, and was accompanied by no sporting sanction whatsoever despite involving £47.5 million in undisclosed payments over seven years.

    We say this not to minimise what occurred at this club, which we have accepted was wrong. We say it because proportionality is itself a principle of natural justice. The Commission was entitled to impose a sanction. It was not, we will argue, entitled to impose one that is manifestly disproportionate to every previous sanction in the history of the English game.

    Our appeal will be heard today, and we will provide a further update in due course.

    Whataboutery. What a surprise.

    Good on the EFL, and proof that cheating is not acceptable. Feel sorry for the fans, but hopefully they direct their anger towards those at their club lacking integrity. Serves them right.

    This is it. Far too many southampton fans claiming its a miscarriage of justice. Its not. You tried to unfairly gain an advantage. 

     

    I for once am glad the EFL and independent commission grew a set and provided the strongest possible punishment. If they don't, what message would that send? 

     

    Just dont do it.

    That's an absolute joke IMO. I think the stupidity of doing it for what could only be a marginal gain at best deserves something. But that is completely over the top.

     

    Sporting integrity eh. This season never stops giving. This gives Cov a better chance of survival as well.

    Its not a joke though is it? You have absolutely no idea what advantage they could've gained and what was seen and even if they didn't gain much its incredibly poor professionalism and needs making an example of. 

     

    Just dont do it? Its not difficult.

  7. My wife has recently given birth to our first born and im looking at upgrading my car as it struggles to fit our pram  alongside anything else (and need to bin off this shitty Puegot 208 with its crappy wetbelt that degraded at 27k miles..) 

     

    I like the VW T-Cross. Looks like you can adjust the boot space too which is good. 

     

    Does anyone have one of these and can give their opinion? I know very little about reliability of cars so any advice welcome!

    Yeah he's given up, but if it wasn't for him and JJ, we'd be competing with Sheff Wed for bottom spot. That smile, that enthusiasm has disappeared, just like for the rest of us.

    lol

     

    Yeah. We'd be competing for minus points wouldnt we???

     

    Can we stop the sensationalist nonsense please?
