die Mannyschaft

Run in looks good so let's hope it doesn't take us a month or 2 to get a top 2 spot secured early.

Will be 3,000 initially although I wouldn't give Pompey more than 1,300.

Decent enough list as most months even spread of so called bigger and lesser teams. Lots of away games in first half season I've got penciled in. Be good to beat Wrexham and get off to good start. TV will talk about Wrexham all week before game so we won't be in spot light so can concentrate on a home 4-1 win.

I was in the upper East Stand and got a perfect view of the player, we all thought there was a competition for any Sunday leaque player to play for 5 mins on the Dell.

Perry Groves at Ocen Village when tge shops were there. He had a flat also another Ssints player. Before the big redevelopment.

Circus of clowns juggling managers

I guess that must be 19 to 21k sold or will be. Did we have 23k first season at St Mary's Seasons 23k Away 4k Corp boxes 1k Netting 500 Members, day tickets 4k

Not sure why it's taking so long to get the Eastleigh fc tickets on sale.

Yes that's right. I used to play at Fleming park for 1 hour to go over to Bishopstoke tennis club for hour. At evening mix in Chris used to turn up sometimes. Martin was also a very good player.

I went to a 50th party and Dave Peach was there. Great bloke chatted to him for a while.

Played in a SCC v ex Saints football match for stroke charity. I marked Francis Benali and he was too fast as I spent too much time chatting to him than concentrating on football tactics.

Wow, brilliant. Chris Nicholl one of the best players Saints have had and in the quality packed 77-78 squad. I played a few tennis matches for Fleming Park at Hampshire tennis club and Saints players were always in there. I did some tennis coaching for Reg Wilkinson in 90s and had some tickets for the players' lounge.

Do Saints publish a 1st team retained list? Don't think I've ever seen one on site or Echo.

Not players but football fans. At Gaumont Soton 1976 met Sabbath after gig in waited outside and we were let in 4 at a time. Ozzy gave us cans beer and during chat asked what team they support he said Villa. Met Steve Ignorant from CRASSpuj band at gigs and he is West Ham fan so we talk football each time. Got him to sign one of my tickets few years back Saints won 4-0 at Dell 1988 and Steve put 'a crass result ' On plane to Germany for WC2006 I was sat near Uriah Heep, they are Spurs fans so I said this is the highest you'll ever get. I got a Uriah Heep plectrum. Seen Cockney Rejects a few times and they are big West Ham fans. Lots of fights between fans at gigs, especially in London in old days!

Credit where due, he got us into a final at Wembley which many fans may not experience that for a long while. The 25 game unbeaten run again which may may struggle to get passed 7 or 8. Championship to Champions league in one easy move. Can't think of any team in Scotland that's better than top 4 in Championship so it's not going to be as difficult as managing in Prem. RM will probably win title.

Brilliant, just down the road, another 7-1 for Saints will do. Considering Eastleigh are mainly comprised of Saints fans will be another good crowd. Although a lot of subs last time, 1st half, 2nd half team hope all the staring 11 play, if Still knows thd starting 11 by then

Great to see Inter applying Russell Martin tactics, the style of football has gone international. It worked for Saints we got silverware in a final!

This is just what Saints need it will stop the opposition keeping an eye on our players as they stream forward. I can't look at it too long with my varifocals.

The performances went flat in the run in similar to all the newspaper noise of a transfer. Any deal should have been in motion before last 4 games. I think he will now stay and depending on performance Jan or next July window transfer.

At least v Brighton even if it's a run out with thier u21s, loans etc it's a bench mark for championship and see our tactics.

My son's mate wants to move from block 45 to 43 so that's useful.

If the rumor is good enough it can increase share price and interest. I think they will sell as must have made a big chunk of money. Or at least big director dividend.

It was a class pass, great vision.

An e mail to run on the pitch needs to be sent out for next season to the players. It's a dilemma for new manager as it's unlikely players who like slow walking passing football will be able to adapt to high press running football.

That's a lot of players still in contract. We could end up with the same team for first half of next season if no one puts bids in. Except Ramsdale and Fernandes.
