Spygate escalates. #Boro come out fighting ... demanding #SaintsFC thrown out of play-off final because "the observation and recording of our training session ahead of a (semi-final) fixture of such significance goes to the heart of sporting integrity and fair competition".

Southampton’s 2-1 win over Middlesbrough is under threat after a staff "spy" was identified via a bank card transaction at a golf course. The EFL is now deciding if they will be expelled from the playoff final. #Southampton #Boro #EFL #Spygate

Och plötsligt var det vår och varmt och shortsen skulle fram! Jag har ett par linneshorts, 3/4 byxor som jag älskar, men som vid en liten olycka för några år sedan fick ett hål vid knät. Det har av någon anledning tagit emot lite att laga det, kanske för att det påminner mig om skadan i knät som jag helst vill glömma.
Men hursom, nu var det varmt ute och shortsen behövdes lagas lite snabbt...
Lite snabbt... är kanske inte rätt ord. Det är varken litet (hålet är tumnagel stort och lappen 10x10 cm) eller snabbt, men bra blev det.
Från och med nu är detta ett boro- projekt där det kommer att komma fler lappar.

English:
And suddenly it was spring, and the warmth told me it was about time to bring out the shorts! I have a pair of linen shorts—three-quarter length trousers—that I love, but after a small accident a few years ago, they got a hole at the knee. For some reason I’ve been a bit reluctant to fix it, maybe because it reminds me of the knee injury I’d rather forget.

Anyway, now it’s warm outside and the shorts needed a small and quick repair…
“Small and quick” might not be the right words tho. It’s neither small (the hole is about the size of a thumbnail and the patch is 10×10 cm) nor fast - but it turned out well.

From now on, this is a boro project, and more patches will be added.
