Southampton

Then I would assume Hull would lose their legal action, because the EFL didn’t do anything wrong or more importantly, anything outside the rules of the competition. Yes they were disadvantaged, but Southampton caused it by breaking the rules.

That's what I've been reading, they're very unlikely to have a case.

The Hull chairman's comments puts me even more firmly on Boro's side this afternoon. It will be worth them winning just to see how much angst that causes Southampton, Hull, etc...

I think they feel disadvantaged because they've only known who their opponents were for three days.
Southampton and Middlesbrough have know throughout that they were playing Hull.

Should have sent someone down there sharpish to watch their training

Yes credit to them They've capitalized on a very poor year im not taking that away from them.

But how they play isnt sustainable it was just a fluke season. Very much back down to mid table again. On the other hand I only see Boro getting better.

Whether it's sustainable or not, they have managed to achieve what every other team in the championship wanted at the start of the season, promotion to the promised land . As i said earlier, you don't need 4, 5 or 6 seasons to build a squad capable of getting promoted.

Having a shed tons of money your able to chuck at player wages also helps aswell.
