Field bindweed in Middlesbrough? 15:35 - May 21 with 7619 viewsdixiefrog

Sorry if this is a bit of a stupid question, but does anyone know the date that the photo was taken on the supposed spy next to the tree. I ask as the full photo published by The Times clearly shows two lots of White Field Bindweed (Calystegia sepium) in the background. Now Field Bindweed only flowers between the months of June and September (and later in the north), if Middlesbrough said that the photo was taken within 48 hours of the May 12th game, then that can’t be correct as the bindweed couldn’t have been in flower.
I can only imagine that the photo was taken in October the previous year, was photoshopped, or tampered with to provide a spurious creation date. Whichever is the answer it might be worth asking Middlesbrough FC how they manage to get their Field Bindweed to flower so early.

The BBC report where they show the tree from a couple of days ago there are white flowers on the adjacent hedging/shrubbery. It's at end of the piece they've now done about Eckhart.

Here goes with my response to your questions.
1. Witnesses can be manipulated (perhaps) especially when there’s 150 million hanging on the outcome.
2. I refer to the above, how much would you want to be somewhere/somewhen?
3. If you’re not a gardener then I would always recommend a nice bottle of single malt, after a while you no longer see the weeds.


Perhaps Will Salt in a plant and is being paid by Middlesbrough

Many thanks for your input but it’s pretty difficult to confuse the difference between hawthorn and bindweed. Quite correctly you state that hawthorn can flower in May, however the blossoms are small multi faceted and a off white colour, hedge bindweed flowers from June and produces single almost brilliant white trumpet type blooms.
The question here is not the difference between the two but what plant is in the photo. I recall from previous posts that we have an Ugly living not far from the spot, perhaps a visit and a photo would prove if we have a case or not.

Agreed and I’m not disputing that Saints cheated on a number of occasions. I am however trying to prove that Middlesbrough either lied or tampered with some key evidence and if they did, what else did they alter to suit their own objectives.

Sorry again to everyone on this forum but this is one I can’t put down, in my eyes I suspect that Middlesbrough tampered with some evidence to paint Saints in a bad light and gain an advantage for themselves.
I don’t know the correct etiquette for this request, but could our friend in the north Jackoetc perhaps shed some light and maybe confirm or disprove my idea that the shrub in The Times photo is (or is not) as I suspect. Apologies to Nick and the administrators if this isn’t the right route and if not, please feel free to block or bar this message.

Sky Sports and other outlets have had reporters at the crime scene. What have you seen in their footage?

As someone else stated the filming on Sky Sport taken this week shows the same flower in bloom. Maybe it's Hawthorn.
