Can't believe people actually thought that 🤣 As I said earlier just as batshit as some of the hysterical posts on their forum.

EFL charge came in quick! Clearly some compelling evidence. Never seemed likely it was completely made up.

Aside from the actual match I can see it being pretty dodgy around the ground post game, especially if we get a result.

No chance we say anything publicly until at least after tuesday night.

The idea that they've completely made it up to sell tickets is just as batshit as some of what their fans are spouting imo. I think we've definitely done something, the scale of what that is and how high up it was authorised are the unknowns for me.

Christ this just gets better and better. There's an apparent lawyer on there comparing us to those lads who cut that tree down in Northumberland

EFL probably have the discretion to change that if they want, but the idea that that they're going to summon our entire senior management and coaching staff up to London on Monday and Tuesday is Portsmyth levels of delusion.

I hope we're a bit more inventive with our songs than just we spy when we want. This could end up one of the best away days ever if we win.

Honestly what world are they living in when they think the above might actually happen? Ffs 😂

Some of them lot talking about the police is fucking hilarious 😅 Also the mush who's saying their owner should take legal action against us even if they beat us. This is gonna run well beyond these two games I reckon.

I find it harder to believe that Tonda wouldn't know. Matey taking a day off two days before the game deciding to go on break league rules on his own seems incredibly unlikely.

Seems a strange thing to make up though if they don't have proof. Surely he'd be all over CCTV? I reckon it's pretty likely to be true. Seeing as they're all out early for their coach I can definitely see ours coming under attack. Though given the stadium layout we could easily approach from the other side and not go over that bridge. Can't wait for this now, properly spiced it up.

I agree, it's daft and a bit shitty in my view. Plenty on here would just as raging as some of the Boro fans if it was the other way round. We've got no choice but to own it now as fans during these two games but it's not a good look. Definitely adds something to the games though which is good.

Wasn't explicitly against the rules then, think a rule was added after that. No chance we'll get expelled or anything that drastic but reckon we'll get a bigger punishment than Leeds.

Agreed. Will just fire them up even more too so don't think there's a huge benefit to us doing it. No chance the EFL will mess about with the play offs now.

Spy, spy, wherever we may be. We are the famous Southampton FC. And we've got some mush, hiding in your trees. And we'll spy our way to Wembley.

Club info says they won't be transferable. The situation you describe is one of the reasons there's a big push for digital ticketing.

Reckon you're right about the ticket app. A play off game going so low says to me that there's lots of high pointers who buy every game regardless but don't go to them all.

Wonder if they'll bother going 7,6,5 etc tomorrow and instead break it up more. Something like 4-1-all sth-members.

I can't actively want us to lose but I'm not going to particularly gutted after a day if we do.

I meant the away game, can see the home tickets. I think the concourses are an issue. In theory you could have half of 27 used for segregation and then the Saints fans can use the normal turnstiles and concourse and access. But I think an entrance makes up part of that block so you'd have to staff it inside the concourse to stop away fans using it.

Anyone buying at 2pm? Be interesting to see how many are left.

With the old setup though we could sell block 43 to home fans. Pretty sure we did that for the WBA play off two years ago.

Assume it's a combination of supporter clubs, players families and sponsors. Think supporter club members have to qualify in own right though, can anyone confirm?

Yeah bet hardly any players families or sponsors turned up for that one. Ended up being the best away of the season too.
