Their local rag reports they've stuck to the plan they had if they'd won the second-leg

But the main point was they haven't just clocked off and been on the beers

[L/H White]

feel a tad sorry for arsenal fans, what a crap way to win the league with no one in the stadium 

real anti climax 

and away this weekend

So they haven't been in training since the second leg.

As you'll have read, they reported back to training on Monday and even that was just ticking over. Anything specific to Hull will be done later in the week.

What's still being argued here?

Take issue with the wording of  me posting that they've been in training since the second-leg ended if you like, but it doesn't alter the point I was making

They haven't changed their plans at all, so it's not the case that they've had to "switch from post-season mode with all its concerns/relaxation" or that "their approach to preparation will have been vastly different" as @Tonge moor green jacket claimed

Who the fuck is bothered about Middlesbrough, Hull or Southampton.

Hope it gets cancelled Saturday 

Wont watch it regardless when they play it and who faces Hull

So original KO time for the champ play off final was 4:30 but now as it’s hull v boro it’s been moved to 3:30. But if Southamptons appeal is successful it goes back to 4:30

What a fucking palaver 🤣

There's loads more to this than just hiding in a bush 

One lad dressed as Eastleigh staff when they played Ipswich

They're going to turn this into drawn out Netflix series, aren't they?

Last train back to Middlesbrough is half 7.  If they have extra time and penalties even at 3:30 that will be a rush. No chance even with no extra time if they kick off at 4:30.

There is a bus replacement from York too, the half 7 is scheduled to get back via coach just after midnight. 
 

It is a shambles.

But at least all the EFL officials who have organised this shambles will be sitting comfortably in their fully expensed hotel bar.

The irony of Arsenal winning the league this season is they were better in the 3 years they finished second.

Not quite spying on opposition, but this is very funny:

They'll just waive the 4 point penalty, which is probably why they put it in there in the first place
