It feels a tad harsh to me, but they cheated. And the rules state that the punishment for spying could mean the opposition are handed the tie. It should have been dealt with ages ago though. It’s rumbled on too long and caused a lot of logistical issues

If Southampton did bend the rules, irrespective of by how much, then Middlesbrough didn't lose fair and square. Can't have both, as one affects the other!

May 19May 19 Just now, Lt. Aldo Raine said: Their centre-half Harwood-Bellis supposedly mocked Luke Ayling's stammer during the second-leg and then did the binoculars celebration when they scored I saw the binoculars thing.. Also heard about the incident with Ayling, but didn’t know what was said. That’s great. Pleased he’s not getting his promotion bonus. Fuckin prick. There’s gonna be some heads rolling at Southampton
May 19May 19 How the feck are Middlesbrough going to sell tickets and sort transport to Wembley for thousands in 48-72 hours?
May 19May 19 I can’t work out why they’ve done this spying. I’d say leaking a team sheet early is a bigger crime. Odd as fook

Especially with the train situation. Wembley is booked up on Saturday and Sunday the following weekend and then every Saturday now until July 23rd is literally the only time they can play it short of a midweek fixture

May 19May 19 The right decision, I’m sure, but the timing is an utter farce. Southampton fans must be going nuts on last travel costs etc. Similarly a nightmare for Boro fans trying to sort travel and tickets at this stage. Hope none of their players went on holiday 😅 Does also mean we might get rid of the dreariness of Boro away if we go up 🤣
May 19May 19 Middlesbrough have been training this week knowing if this happened they'd be playing Hull City But Hull City have had to prepare to face either Middlesbrough or Southampton That doesn't seem fair

Can't have both, as one affects the other! And Southampton didn't bend the rules. They willfully broke them. A minimum of three times including in the playoffs. They didn't give the EFL a choice. Mind blowing stupidity and I hope Southampton fans turn their anger on those responsible rather than circle the wagons. The EFL will be absolutely praying Hull win on Saturday though. Get your money on red cards and VAR penalties.
May 19May 19 Think if I were a Southampton fan I'd be writing the club a strongly worded letter, receipts included, demanding compensation for ticket, travel and accommodation.
