| Club statement. Finally 14:50 - May 20 with 1632 views | BuenosSaint | And the club has finally made a statement. A mix of contrition and highlighting the lack of precedence and the disproprotionality of the penalty. https://www.southamptonfc.com/ |  |

| Club statement. Finally on 15:26 - May 20 with 1396 views | Flamingbankers | Yes we're guilty but the club are correct, the punishment is disproportional. There may have been no rules at the time but Leeds did it all season long. Does anyone seriously believe Leeds and Saints aren't the only ones to have done this? There have to be occasions of other clubs doing this after the rules were made - no doubt other clubs are keeping silent at the moment. I think the EFL have a lot to answer for as well as the hypocritical clubs. If you want to discuss proportionality; why have we waited a year and a half after an FA internal inquiry to find out the outcome and charges to Man City facing 115 counts of 'cheating'. As for Harry Redknapp getting his tuppence worth - there could be a large volume, or several, of accusations written about his insalubrious football affairs. [Post edited 20 May 15:32]

What needs looking at apart from the obvious guilt on our part ,is the fact that the northeners have a bloke on the efl panel , and also the trial by media . The constant influences from gibson and pushing to get what he wants out of this dispite his club failure not only in the play offs .. failure to go up in 2nd spot .His manipulation of the press and his inside man needs an investigation in my opinion. |  |
