  1. Assuming prices are broadly similar across the stadium, I'm happy enough with £30 (it seems to be the going rate?) Good opportunity to use up any Ticket Exchange credit, too.
  2. I'm surprised the club are seemingly just lobbing rails in front of the existing seats. Most Premier League clubs seem to be going down the fold-flat 'rail seating' route with their trials & rollouts. Granted, they'll have potential European football to consider (and so are more likely to seek to meet UEFA specifications). But it seems a bit shortsighted to do this half-arsed.
  3. I had to work the 2nd leg - but at Southampton Uni Student's Union, so it was on all of the big screens. Probably one of the most horrible, powerless ways to witness it. The atmosphere was decent, though I could only watch in snippets until the penalty shootout. The stunned silence after Idiakez's miss lives with me; a crushing moment in itself, but also the widespread feeling that things were only going to get worse.
  4. Do they? I saw the bolt-on page but there was a button to simply proceed to checkout if you didn't want any of them. Granted I was on a desktop, so perhaps different if you were using phone or tablet.
  5. At very least after Rotherham at home. It wasn't subtle; Downes was quoted fairly extensively on it. https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/23841575.downes-claims-southampton-didnt-deserve-boos-rotherham-draw/
  6. Depends to what extent people cram in, really. Save for some feeble efforts from the stewards in League One, we've never sat on my row. Yet it still feels pretty tightly packed; I don't actually know how people deal with sitting - I'm much more tall than I am broad, yet the seats seem tiny.
  7. If they stopped now - literally downed tools and refused to play - we *might* catch them in 4 or 5 games' time. Look how many fixtures are left. Stop this preposterous line of thought.

    Wi-Fi

    What was it - something like 3 goals conceded in the previous 10 home matches? Then 3 just yesterday. Wi-Fi OUT.
  9. You ask the question of us, but I don't feel you've bothered to stop and try to answer it yourself. Seems pretty obvious - they want him back up to speed, but don't anticipate him playing a big role in their first team this season. We're playing a high level of football and it's a low intervention, short-distance move to come here.

    Sekou Mara

    He may have a future with us; he probably won't. But bearing in mind the criticisms earlier in our run about not putting teams to the sword (and/or hammering them), he's now playing a role in that. Flat track bully or no, he's far from anonymous at present.

    Che Adams

    One of the more composed finishes we've seen from him. I'm not going to try to unpick the 'he's playing for a move' logic, because it's pointless. But he got us up and running today, then played a vital role in pushing on. If these are amongst his final contributions I'd rather it be this way.

    The 200 Club

    All joking aside, I'm actually quite impressed with Bednarek knuckling down after it looked like he was done here. Far from the greatest CB we've had - and yes, the PL looked a notch above him at times. But a good servant who's been key to our fortunes thus far this season. We've seen a decent return on that initial £5m outlay.
  13. Been mulling over these figures a fair amount this eve, set against some of the dafter caterwauling. Yes, we've dropped a few points from winning positions. Yes, that four game run fucked us a bit. But ourselves and Leeds are having a bloody good go at it. It's just that Leicester and Ipswich are simultaneously having utterly freakish seasons. You'd hope one (or both!) slips up soon. With nearly half the season gone who'd be brave enough to bet on it, though?
  14. Quite like the idea as it's something repeatable that'd build. The suggested words don't scan, unfortunately. This could work, though: "It's Walker-Peters on the right, The right, oh yeah The right back of my life"
  15. Yet we'll wake up tomorrow morning 3 points better off. No, a trip to St. Mary's doesn't necessarily mean guaranteed blockbuster entertainment right now. But it is meaning pragmatic results. Does anybody truly remember whether second division teams are entertaining or not? If Martin can get us out of this league, I'm to be convinced the manner of it is important
