Have to say I'm a little concerned with the spygate regarding Tonda.

The way he wouldn't/wasn't allowed to answer questions shows that he was directly involved in it, otherwise surely he'd come out condoning it and distancing himself from those involved.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist in the slightest, but it is food for thought as to if this was a one off thing or wether the same spying of at other teams has played a part in the form we've been on.

I mean, a young, inexperienced manager appearing from nowhere and suddenly blowing apart the league ??.knowing the training and the way a team is setting up prior to each match would certainly help a lot with that.

Like I say though I don't think/hope it's not the case. It will be interesting to see how our form is over the next bunch of games under him though, to see if there is any change.

The whole debacle stinks, big stories like this are often a punishment or a distraction. Top teams are guilty of the same charges for decades without ever being exposed or penalised. The richest clubs have help from within the Premier League, FA, UEFA etc to conduct and execute military like operations for even the tiniest of details to gain advantage, a desired outcome for the club, the completion and its sponsors. It's so common and widespread but it's always big news when a team is highlighted or seen tot be made example of.
You know there is something more ro the story when it's a smaller club like Saints ( I think it was Derby or Leeds last time ) and not a Madrid, Barca and United etc.

The big clubs thirst for the smallest advantages and their capabilities to do so far outweighs the likes of Saints.
Just as smaller clubs are hit with penalty points for financial implications and teams like Man City are seemingly exempt from the rules and carry on regardless achieving titles, trophies and plaudits.
Speaking of Man City, has anyone seen a replay of Leo's disallowed offside goal at Wembley? It wasn't shown or spoke of during the match and only shown at halftime with same angle TV viewers had during live match. No slow motion, no different camera angle and certainly no VAR. Complete silence from commentators and pundits ?‍♂️
