En skiljenämnd inom ligan har avslagit Southamptons överklagan mot uteslutningen från Championship-kvalet efter att ha spionerat på rivaliserande lag. Middlesbrough kommer nu att möta Hull City i finalen på Wembley Stadium på lördag.

EFL bekräftade på onsdagen att panelen har förkastat överklagan och fastställt de ursprungliga sanktionerna mot Southampton. Dessa inkluderar uteslutning från kvalspelet, ett avdrag på fyra poäng för säsongen 2026/27 samt en tillrättavisning för brott mot EFL:s regelverk gällande obehörig filmning av träningar.

Vad folk säger

Användare på X uttryckte blandade känslor: vissa ifrågasatte huruvida straffet för spionaget var för strängt och undrade om politik spelat en roll, medan andra försvarade beslutets slutgiltighet och stödde att Middlesbrough går vidare för att möta Hull City.
