Not sticking up for the club in anyway as leaving it till a week before the 1st game to send out tickets is asking for trouble. However too many fans are quick to moan on twitter , facebook, forums when the answer is on the official website

Have they not made a statement on the club website? SOUTHAMPTON FC | Official Website of Saints – latest news, photos and videos

Then we crumble in the 2nd half and lose 3-1

Perhaps the poster believes that he would improve the 1st 11 if he signed? Why do you think we have to sign a 3rd or 4th choice CB as a replacement for Vestergaard?

https://www.evertonfc.com/news/2207784/tickets-for-southampton-clash-now-on-sale-to-official-members Everton are saying the following: As part of these measures to maximise safety, minimise the risk of transmission of COVID-19 and follow government guidance and Premier League protocols, fans should be prepared to present, if asked when entering the stadium, their COVID-19 vaccination status or proof of a negative COVID-19 test result within 48 hours of the match.

Every season we get this and i'm not sure why some fans seem desperate to have them when the 1st home game is still over 2 weeks away.

I wonder if all the fans that were moaning that the club did not take the full allocation of 2800odd and that they wouldn't get a ticket are now suddenly busy and unable to attend.

Perhaps this move now will convince some that Aston Villa is a step up from Saints Is Ings not the king of the scummers any more ..

Some idiot on another forum reckons he could play centre back for us . Not sure I’d want that to be honest as a regular thing

Have to agree that stats dont tell the full picture I have had many an argument at work on monday when told Saints had 15 shots etc or 60% possession - yes we may have but none were ever going to go in and all our posssession was in our own half etc. A player may have a good pass completion stat - but if he only passes 5 yards and along the back line than so he should.

How do you know that?

How do you know it doesn't?

Did you renew your existing seats in block 31 or did you opt to move?

Yes I think unfortunately you are right. We may get £45m if we are lucky .

Yeah I agree. Not sure what we will offer to a potential buyer too . We have an owner who wants a reported £200,000,000 for his 80% stake and then a team that needs the best part of £50,000,000 odd of investment arguably just to finish 15th again .

It will be intresting to see how they price the 500 odd seats in block 31 on a match per match basis. I can see them selling a large chunk at £65 odd for the likes of liverpool, Man U but cant see them having many takers for £50 for the lkes of Burnley, or Palace. How much extra the club are going get is questionable over a season .

Beating Fulham - stop their winning run ..... oh they never went on that winning run that some on here told us they were going to.

Every club outside the top 6 must be looking be looking at them with envy . You could probably throw in Tottenham too come to think of it .

Do you really think we have £80m sitting in the bank waiting to be spent?

Seeing as Wolves are losing , do you think we are going to catch them then?

I reckon he could be right.

If it goes to form then Leicester will run out comfortable winners (3 or 4 -0) , how ever football has a habit of not always following forn so you never know. Big game for Ralph and the team to show what they are made of, at the very minimuim i expect a honerable defeat at worse.

I thought it was his best game for us for a while , made some decent saves and his kicking / passing was good. Hard to criticise him for the 2nd goal to be honest , maybe Pope might have saved it but Pope is arguably England’s best keeper .

Have to agree , I’m sure Fulham should be above us by now to !

To be fair Ralph has had over 2 years to show the team how to break down teams with 11 men behind the ball. maybe somebody should teach Ralph how
