Southampton claim spying on Middlesbrough did not change their tactics

Club showed EFL commission their training sessions

Millwall and Wrexham considering their legal options

Southampton have provided footage of their training sessions to the English Football League’s independent disciplinary commission to try to prove they gained no material advantage from the Spygate saga that has rocked the game.

Southampton have not contested the damning facts of the case – namely that one of their analysts, William Salt, was sent to film Middlesbrough in training two days before the Championship play-off semi-final first leg between the clubs at the Riverside Stadium.
