Singapore Southampton Fan Club - Singa Saints

😢😢😢

A brilliant interview by Adam Blackmore with Saints owner and Chairman Dragan Solak. After listening to Dragan, we are so happy his thoughts are the same. Using the same analogy we made in our earlier post, of being a family member making a mistake and giving him (Tonda) a second chance, glad we have a chairman like him. Sensible thinking, did not crack under pressure, provided a clear direction to reverse Saints fortunes, and promised better days to come 👍🙏

Point proven. Our last post attracted more than 50% comments tirelessly 'educating' Saints fans that the club is a cheat, very often with profanities.

A warm welcome to Boro's Internet Brigade.

Hey, we get it. But was it so serious that we deserve the harshest punishment ever meted out? NO. Was it a mistake that the coach deserves a second chance YES.

The club has been punished, it's all over. But what we were appalled about was the behaviour towards us, fuelling social media, wanting us to be kicked out, sensationalising every moment, including the epic crybaby scene worthy of an Oscar.

The reality in our opinion is simply this. Boro fans realised this is the ONLY WAY to get to the finals! And of course we were told that we were living rent-free in your heads since 97. BUT, did we win on aggregate? YES. Did we cheat on the field or put in an illegal player? NO. Was there match fixing? NO. Did Boro go through on merit? NO.

So why are BORO fans so upset that they want our heads to roll? What else..... the final quest towards the Premier League, the only straw left they can grasp. Admit it. It's not so much about Saints' spying. It's that chance to get into the final loss to us, but with a glimmer of hope knowing someone from Boro is on the EFL board. Don't mess with Steve Gibson you say. Would a £100M fine satisfy you? You are neither angels.

Such a ludicrous and draconian decision made by EFL is also highlighted in an op-ed by ex-High Court judge Sir Nicholas Mostyn -

Can't blame us for being angry too.

Isn't it strange? Seems like the whole of Europe acknowledges such reconnaissance.

No one calls Bielsa, an experienced coach with an age double of Tonda Ekhert, a cheat. So why is Tonda one? Or were our semi-final rivals too sensitive or thin-skinned, FOMO, fear of losing to us in the 2nd leg after shooting blanks in the 1st, that resulted in a wolf-pack like behaviour akin to an Internet Brigade, to get us kicked out via the Court of Opinion swaying the panel to such a decision? Was it even worse than a dive in the penalty box at 90th minute?
