Hull City owner Acun Ilicali said he would pursue legal action if the team does not win the Championship play-off final against Middlesbrough. Middlesbrough had lost to Southampton in the semi-final, but were reinstated after Southampton admitted to spying on Middlesbrough’s training session and were expelled from the competition. Ilicali stated that his legal team believes action is required. He said the club’s focus is on justice and that if justice is not upheld, nobody will enjoy football. The comments were made outside Wembley Stadium before kick-off in the final.
"“Our legal team says that we have to go for action, that's for sure,” Ilicali told BBC Radio Humberside outside Wembley Stadium before kick-off in the final. “So we have no doubt about it. Here, all we want is justice. If justice is broken, nobody will enjoy football.”"
