Southampton Faces Investigation Over Spygate

Southampton is under investigation by the FA.

The FA is looking into Southampton's actions and will charge those involved.

The authorities waited for the EFL's decision and now they are taking action. Southampton admits they made mistakes but thinks the punishment was too harsh.

The EFL still says Middlesbrough will play Hull at Wembley. The coach of Southampton might get banned or even lose his job.

Other top people at the club might also get in trouble. The club could face legal action from its players because they lost money.

The EFL said the punishment for Southampton stays the same, including being removed from the playoffs and a four-point deduction.

Hull might start their own process because they think they should go to the top league without playing the final. They finished sixth and had to play different teams.

The owner of Hull is getting legal advice because the situation is unusual. The rules about spying on other teams were made stronger after Leeds did it in 2019.

The owner of Hull City spoke about the situation.

The owner said under normal circumstances, one team would be disqualified and the other would go to the final. His lawyers think Hull should go to the Premier League directly but they are still looking into it.

Hull had been preparing to play Southampton for ten days. Now they have to prepare for a new team with only one training session left.
