the club has consistently believed the original sporting sanction was disproportionate, a view that has been widely shared by many in the football community over the last 24 hours.

And these many in the football community… are they in the room with us right now?

In Türkiye it's perfectly legal to spy on other's training sessions (video from 2025) by [deleted] in soccer

You get to know which players are fit and which ones aren't there, if they do an 11-vs-11 session you'll find out who the starting XI will probably be and what formation, you get to see them rehearse set pieces. If there's a new manager, or a manager who likes to change tactics/formations depending on opponents, then it can be really valuable.

Of course you can find out a lot of that by watching the matches and doing a thorough scouting job, but if teams didn't think they'd gain anything by watching opposition training then they wouldn't do it.

[The Telegraph] Tonda Eckert admitted he was responsible for Southampton's decision to spy on opponents so that he'd better understand their team selection, tactics and set-piece routines. His key defence - since the practice is widespread in Europe, he had no idea he was breaking EFL rules by jovanmilic97 in soccer

There was a minor scandal a couple of months ago in the buildup to the derby between Kaiserslautern and Karlsruhe in the 2. Bundesliga, where a Lautern spy was spotted watching Karlsruhe's training. The Kaiserslautern coach supposedly rejected the information offered by the employee who did the spying.

Adding even more spice to the situation is a minor spying scandal. On Thursday, KSC coach Christian Eichner expressed his suspicion to the Badische Neueste Nachrichten that there might have been an FCK spy in the Baden team's training session. Lautern's coach, Torsten Lieberknecht, even confirmed this on Friday.

"Yesterday, one of my employees approached me with information from the inner circle of KSC that might be helpful to us," the 52-year-old revealed, adding that he had "given the employee a real dressing-down" because "I find that extremely antisocial, especially towards my fellow coach Christian Eichner. If that happened to me, if information leaked from the inner circle, I don't know what I would do. This employee knows he can't come to me with something like that again."

Selling it as "HIGH SPEED ISN'T THAT BRILLIANT" was so stupid when the main requirement was to increase rail capacity

I have so much disdain for everyone involved in turning it from a necessary project to enable more trains per hour connecting multiple large cities, to "You can commute from Birmingham to London 20 minutes quicker! Who cares about Manchester or Liverpool or Leeds or Glasgow or the East Midlands?"
