Of course there is no let’s move on etc! But having not posted here for some years I have to say simply, if some of the players decide to sue then let it be! We simply do not need that mentality in the squad right now and yes it will identify those who are most financially motivated over club. We had one of the best team in the Championship if not the best in the 2026 year and this can most certainly continue if we keep Tonda Eckert as manager. He is the best we have had in many years and I do forgive him unconditionally because even though he has been foolish and doubted his managerial ability by engaging in such dubious activity he can continue to be be the best manager in the Championship, I do hope we can keep him and move on!

The owner needs to root out those responsible immediately
Then the club that represents our city will need all our supporters to get behind our club for a re-boot and a re-build.
The going is gonna get tough, but this is when our city needs us.
I’ll support Southampton evermore! | | | |

And throw more money down the drain. All that money on Preston away, Boro away, Boro at home, the travel expenses and all the games before, total waste of money for meaningless games because Saints, yes our Saints f@cked us over by yes sending a known face from the SFC website to a place, several times where CCTV cameras are everywhere to spy. He didn't even bother covering his face with a face mask. F@xking idiots. Yes, the punishment was harsh, but it's like me walking through Portsmouth in plain sight in a Saints shirt, then complaining that I got some really harsh abuse. What do.we expect? Utter idiots.

You make it sound so simple.
Sport Republic’s record of managerial appointments:
Jones - disaster
Selles - disaster
Martin - great in Championship, not up to Prem
Juric - disaster
Rusk - hard to pass comment
Still - disaster
Eckert - brilliant, but ultimately the biggest disaster of all. Indulged antics which will haunt us for a generation
So what makes you think the idiots in charge of this club will remedy this shitstorm? |  |

With a minus 4 points deduction and a club in total disgrace. We won't be recovering.from this for some time. | |

Yes, agree with you but having witnessed the awful Premier league season of 24/25 I thought nothing could be worse and in my opinion it is still the case that the 24/25 season was the most awful we experienced. Just need a bit of time to overcome this extreme disappointment and hope we can continue the success of this (now last season) for 26/27! Also it was never a given we could have overcome Hull. They are on the assent and have a very good chance of beating Middlesbrough. Yes, I sure hope Hull win!! | | | |

Add to that how ineptly the Club has responded to this since it broke. Lambs to the f*cking slaughter before the Boro-friendly EFL. |  |

They won’t Pat it’s over for them.
Sometimes in business something occurs which has a catastrophic irreversible effect.
This is that time for Sports Republic and its owners.
The only way Southampton Football Club can now survive as a competitive entity is for it to be sold and clearly that’s not going to happen as the brand has been completely trashed.
As for Nick’s dust ourselves down and circle the wagons comments he’s entitled to his opinion. Perhaps he’s been watching too many cowboy films lately. Who knows ? | |

My guess is they will sell whatever they can to recoup whatever they can of their investment and jack it all in at the earliest opportunity. They've been atrocious so far and I can't see this jolting them into a high functioning elite football club ownership state. | | | |

There’s no coming back from this.
They need to sell up and get lost pronto so they can focus on Göztepe. |  |

I want to know what will happen now moving forward in regards to all forms of cheating. For example, someone dives and gets a match winning penalty. After the game it is proven beyond doubt to be a dive (cheating). Will the opposing side be given the points ALA Boro being given a bye in effect? If I was SFC management I would go after the EFL after every single cheating event that turned a game. They have opened up a lot of possible litigation for all 72 clubs in the future. |  | | |

They've made a rod for their own back, sure enough.
Ironic thing is that it feels to me like they the EFL have been played big time by Boro.
EFL has been forced up onto a high horse of football integrity when the real motive had been to give Boro an undeserved route to the final. A final they should be nowhere near. Where's the integrity and justice in that?? | |

I also cannot believe an EFL board member in all of this is also Boro's CEO? How can that be 100% impartial? A CEO has a duty to do what is best for his company. That should never be allowed. | | | |
