I think they could disqualify them if they are found guilty. But it has to happen quickly. How can they justify a points deduction next season in a league thats not even the efl and southampton go on and get £180 mill or what ever it is. Its rewarding cheating. But thats if they are found guilty. |  |

There’s been conversations of cross sanctions since the Leicester debacle I believe. |  |

They got charged immediately I don’t think there’s much doubt at this point. I just can’t imagine them chucking them out, maybe if there’s evidence of previous this season. |  |

Think thats key. I imagine many clubs are looking at cctv footage What is it 21 games unbeaten since he the manager took over. I dont know what legal case boro have too. Yes theyve lost the game and there would still be a final to play but they've lost out on a load of money potentially to a club who cheated. |  |

There’s a legitimate argument that spying handed them enough info to win. In either case, I would be pretty certain that by the weekend we hear of potential legal action by Boro. |  |

Even without an identical anti-spying regulation, the Premier League has broad rules around: - utmost good faith - integrity of competition - conduct bringing the league into disrepute So hypothetically, if: Southampton were found guilty by an EFL commission then promoted ... the PL could potentially argue: “This conduct undermined sporting integrity and is incompatible with league standards.” Then: - a PL independent commission could impose its own sanction. |  | |  |

They’ve also picked the wrong chairman to do it to. |  |

I’d imagine championship clubs will be happy for Southampton to be promoted. |  | |  |

It’s more than conversations - both the EFL and the PL updated their rules to allow sanctions to follow the clubs. So the rules now allow it in both associations. |  | |  |
