Football Special

I don't think all the seats have been put on sale yet , few blocks still to go

Might be a bit extreme but a good plan is for one of us to go down the panorama route as suggested, get a job in the ticket office and go undercover , then expose the corruption with an report published on here

We're not keeping a clean sheet are we

I've just emailed asking to book the roped off area for Saturday night , sounds like it's guaranteed

I loved his nickname Tommy Fourpast Fair play to the chap. Hope he used his football salary wisely for that short spell when he'd have been paid well, ultimately seemed like we agreed to sign him without proper scouting

I agree with you, but faced with two hours stood around at a cold Fratton Park having endured an early start and a bus journey along the m27 it feels inevitable that the offer of a beer will be too much temptation for even the most disciplined amongst us. Did I read it correctly that Saints fans can't even take food and drink for the journey? Mentioned earlier in the thread I'm told when Skates buses arrived at St Mary's they were greeted with a fully open bar with pre poured pints ready to go , commercial manager would have been rubbing his hands at such a captive audience and £7+ per pint!

Blimey you are right, odds on a Cov win seem generous , might have a few quid on that with both teams to score

Looks on course for a sell out on Saturday, big game against the league leaders, not many seats left mainly either side of the away end

Fuck sake. How many goals did we concede that season? We're stuck on groundhog day with this discussion but if everyone is honest we all know Baz isn't good enough

I've never seen P Dawson 69 at an away game thankfully with his wacky dance moves

I think the best Championship sides often pick up a couple of good loans, not sure if we have the right connections at the club to do the deals required. Coventry are a good example bringing.in Rushworrh in loan as keeper (from Brighton I think) , he's been excellent for them, shows you can strengthen without big costs, we should have gone for him

There was a tiny number left for 9 aways

You never know with saints, might put some tickets back on sale that weren't claimed by corporate or player comp, still not sold out now so you have a chance

Anyone able to see how many tickets are left now?

Felt a bit sorry for Royston!

Agree, made this point many times on summer transfer window , Spors managed to do an interview last week after hiding for last couple of months , but still hasn't addressed the recruitment failures

Not seen outfield players directing the keeper before

Some good points there, Cov have been so impressive, points accumulated and goals scored , they will be promoted this season Ipswich did show how to beat them, we should feel confident having won a few home games in a row but yesterday at Norwich has numbed any sense of confidence again

Not just the players, felt like their fans really made him a villain after the pen and were giving him loads of abuse, especially when he went over to take a corner, unlike Norwich fans to be so up for it

I watched the game last night, it was very disappointing, some technically gifted players but we were bullied physically by Blackburn who deserved the win. Shame to go out of the Cup so early as u18s (and u21s) have had a decent season in the league so far

Which ones?

Mads has been shite as well let's be honest

And when the cross comes in none of the three centre backs take charge, just get in each other's way or leave it for each other

Yes sounds like he won't be around for our packed festive schedule unfortunately. If we lose to Coventry, Middlesbrough and Millwall we'll soon find ourselves dropping back down the table

Said after the game today that's exactly the sort of performance I can see this weak as piss bunch of players putting in at Fratton Park
