"Spygate" is my lowest moment in 20 years supporting Southampton.
The lack of clarity is troubling. Accusations of blatant cheating have been belittled. A lovely season feels tainted.
This all creates apathy, and that's worse than losing.

🏈 NFL Draft: No1 pick who played ‘Atomic Bowl’ in ruins of Nagasaki

The Seattle Seahawks are Super Bowl champions after a smothering, suffocating defensive display which rendered Drake Maye and the New England Patriots utterly ineffective
