I would kick Southampton out over spygate.
Also Harwood-Bellis mocking Ayling.

Disgraceful behavior

Peter Rodrigues in particular I remember

I was only a kid and I don’t remember that much to be honest, only having my heart broken, the Chelsea game and the semi final were my first major games supporting palace, I’d only known run of the mill 3rd division games up to then

as soon as story surfaced i thought 100% southampton in huge trouble ,
its worse than our situation with europa last year , massive decision for efl etc but they need to be kicked out here i dont know if that means hull straight up or Middlesbrough re instated but southampton ain’t going up , deleting ticket info , hull delaying ,
and they defo deserve it stupid mistake why would you ? like ? risk everything for i can’t understand but it’s efl law and they’ve broken so stupid plus the absolute idiocy from players abusing ayling speech impedement then scoring and making glasses with eyes , i really hope they kicked out , i remember last time at selhurst when we played boro and i had a few pints with a few they fans absolute top boys

So does going to see them play a league match count as spying? Surely you'd learn more from seeing them play a real match, than you would watching them train?

Let's face it, had it happened to us we'd be just a bit miffed.

Good point. Maybe Tommy Tuchel is a middle man - he must have a library of dossiers on different clubs.

No, it's called scouting in an open arena available to the public.
