How can they appeal when they admitted to spying on other clubs including us? There is no way any appeal is being upheld. SB |  |

They've lodged an appeal already. The EFL should double the points deduction. edit. The appeal has to be held by three new people and not the three who gave today's decision. So could go either way. [Post edited 19 May 19:14]

| Saints out on 19:15 - May 19 with 1165 views | J2BLUE | Wow. I am stunned. I know it's not possible and would never happen but Hull should start with a one goal lead. They have been preparing for Southampton. Boro have been preparing for Hull. |  | |  |
| Saints out on 19:18 - May 19 with 1112 views | IpswichTownBlue | Rightly so. Looks like they spied on us too! Makes Harwood-Bellis's celebration look just a little bit silly now! |  | |  |

Hull now have the same preparation time for ‘Boro as they would for any league game following a Tuesday evening one - slightly more in fact. |  |

Yes but Boro have known if would be Hull they were facing if reinstated. I doubt Hull expected Southampton to be expelled. |  | |  |

Town weren't aware, from what I'm told. EFL confirmed shortly before announcement. |  | |  |

But Boro have had a lot longer to prepare as they have been training in the hope Saints would get expelled, and they knew the opposition, Hull have just found out. |  |

I really doubt that professionals are unable to adapt within 3.5 days! |  |

Hull should get to see the footage that Southampton took of the Boro training sessions, to even things up. |  |

They will appeal the sentence rather than try and defend the 'crime' |  | |  |

Pretty weird to appeal against an offense you've admitted to. Reflects even worse on them in my opinion. SB |  |

I’m less rigorous in requiring evidence than you, I’m pretty bloody sure it did! |  |

They are appealing the punishment as being disproportionate to the offence. |  |

Also drew against us and Boro. He should be sacked for incompetence. |  |
