"The Saints" play soccer in the Championship, the second tier. Their stadium (capacity 32,380) is one mile east of city centre. Many clubs have been penalised for financial irregularities but in 2026 The Saints remarkably were sanctioned for spying. They won a promotion play-off but their pre-match research crossed the line between legitimate scouting and fiendish spying, so their opponents were awarded the victory. Saints were also deducted 4 points for the following season and can count themselves lucky it wasn't 007 points.
