The9

I was told they weren't on sale to home fans anywhere in that stand as part of the bundle. Haven't checked myself.

So... further eligibility for Be'er Sheva released: http://www.saintsfc.co.uk//news/article/2016-17/uel-tickets-hapoel-beer-sheva-vs-southampton-29092016-3282427.aspx They ramped that up quickly. BTW a mate rang today, as suspected from my stellar guesswork, they've sold just under 200 tickets so far.

They won't have to open it up if it's already open... I can't see them being bothered to move people if they get in either, but you never know, they have lots of experience of visiting fans for European games.

Yep, and when either of them break, or people lose them, where are they going to have to go to buy replacements now rather than just using the numerous sets of headphones they probably have scattered around the house? It's the first step in getting rid of non-apple headphones from their products. They're probably building up to making them sealed units so if the headphones break you have to replace the phone. Jobs was big on sealed units... There are also concerns that you can't charge the device and use the headphones at the same time, especially for car users. On the bright side, it's only apple sheep who are going to be affected by it.

Strangely I haven't yet seen anyone say that.

Assuming that you can't get tickets via Saints allocation, (and that you're talking about the Inter end) you should have absolutely no problem getting into the Inter end with a Swedish passport and ticket bought directly from them, which has to be better than not being there at all. I do wonder if the Italian police might have a contingency in place to shift all the "obviously British" fans into the middle tier of the away end anyway, as apparently they're not selling tickets for that end at the moment anyway.

I can't see us outplaying Arsenal at their own game tbh, though as their defence is bloody awful at the moment we might have a chance if our finishing is any good.

Bigwigs and media requirements pretty much the same lot, but useful info.

They're being loaded onto the ST card, I think. I'm guessing At ST +2 aways as well, probably fighting for a small number remaining.

Given that the only Inter tickets on sale at the moment are from the multi match bundle and you can't even buy them directly yet, there are two possibilities: Italian bundle ticket with original purchaser name on it and speculative tout offering tickets they will buy later which will have the possibility of correct name of it.

One of my mates (who posts on here) bought tickets for Inter from viagogo last night. I absolutely do not understand the logic. It's the most expensive way, and also the least likely to get you in. Guaranteed to have someone else's name on it for a start.

If they'd introduced something major with the extra space they'd freed up with the headphone jack I could understand it. But they're just trying to make something else proprietary so you can't use anyone's else's and have to buy it from Apple. It's beyond comical now.

Good enough to get a few games here and there against less stellar opposition, he's in the twilight zone between write off and might come good. Gaston 2.0 but less dispensable.

What's missing is considering who he appears impressive against - other kids.

Why is there no expansive list of exactly the same features this year, so I can decide not to buy it again? I spent a couple of hours messing about with 3D kit textures in FM15 last week to recreate my Sunday team's kit from 1998 in the game, God knows why.

Doesn't exactly promote you as knowing what you're talking about though, especially given the amount of money the Premier League has thrown at rebranding specifically to stop people calling it anything else. The Premiership is a Scottish division and a rugby competition.

Incredibly hard to believe - but then the opportunity to get up to "top speed" in a football match is pretty rare so the data is dependent on who's actually had the opportunity to get flat out - Long's position and style mean he spends a lot of time chasing things down, and we've all seen Yoshida trying to get back chasing through balls or long balls over his head. Could be the data from this season only?

The club's already looking into it, doubt there will be many wanting to walk it but some will probably not bother planning and hope for the best.

Must remember to fly my car over, anyone know what Easyjet charge? Seriously though, useful map - there's a noticeably quicker route on foot as well. Not that half of my group can walk that far anyway due to various health issues, disability etc. This link MIGHT work (English language where Google allows): https://www.google.co.uk/maps/dir/%D7%90%D7%A6%D7%98%D7%93%D7%99%D7%95%D7%9F+%D7%98%D7%A8%D7%A0%D7%A8,+%D7%93%D7%A8%D7%9A+%D7%94%D7%90%D7%A6%22%D7%9C+2,+%D7%91%D7%90%D7%A8+%D7%A9%D7%91%D7%A2,+Israel%E2%80%AD/Be'er+Sheba-North,+Be'er+Sheva,+Israel/@31.2672312,34.7857491,15z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x15026680d5ba1785:0xe05b9df7aa64ee34!2m2!1d34.7797208!2d31.27339!1m5!1m1!1s0x150266f879d0c3e1:0x2e58887a229204b5!2m2!1d34.809287!2d31.262089!3e2

Yes, qualifying has so many small teams compared to the group stages that UEFA basically allows teams to get on with it until the group stages when the tv kicks in and everything's regulated to hell. For instance, Saints wore striped-back shirts against Vitesse and Midtjylland, there won't be any of that on Thursday next week.

They didn't actually say, but we'd shifted 7500 by 29th August: http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/2016-17/20160829-europa-league-bundle-tickets-update-southampton-3278496.aspx They went on general sale 2nd September, and we're down 1000 on the total capacity due to UEFA regulations (presumably either the ad boards being higher obscuring a couple of rows, or some weird segregation rules, or possibly media requirements, or maybe even the need to slap UEFA logos all over everything has an impact, I haven't looked but it's probably that we lose the front row or two).

They actually only asked "where we were staying" and then "would I be interested in a transfer from Tel Aviv on matchday". They still need to get the pricing right, anything more than £20 return and people will (again) find their own way, poxy train times or not. I'm guessing they'll run from one of the big hotels or train (or bus) stations in Tel Aviv.

He's worth his place in the squad at the moment and the potential upside keeps him around, but he's always going to look better against a bunch of kids still learning their trade than a full team of experienced pros. He does keep adding little bits to his game here and there, still one for the future, until he is either already there or isn't going to get there.

Incidentally, have we got anyone who bought tickets to Be'er Sheva today? If so, care to share when and approximate "seat number"? I don't think we'll have sold even 30 today to people with ST and 15+ away who didn't go to Midtjylland, but we'll see...

As opposed to "people paying money to their club to watch a match".
