Football Special

First half we weren't too bad, I thought unlucky with disallowed goal, BUT not good enough and I'm afraid he does have to go, 71% and no shots on target ffs

We won the real quiz.

Still impressed with numbers considering performance so far this season, every away game full allocation sold out. Every home game been sold out weeks in advance.

I do find that odd, considering tickets made it to members it's not like they are that difficult to get and as long as you've done a few aways as a season ticket holder you're pretty much guaranteed for any away game you want to go to except for Bournemouth which we've already had so can't see the incentive to go to the hassle of buying just to sell on

This came up as 11 years ago today https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2491656/Roy-Hodgson-delighted-Southampton-players-England-squad.html?fbclid=IwY2xjawGadAJleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHZHEEt_rCD5sfbYM7Z7_Oih3bGOBsIDtSTk-G6zgMuIm430LjLgxXQp7lw_aem_-A15jOPjAnBkfzeiUyPBNQ

Know you're joking but he's usually away with u21s anyway

KWP deserves a call up as well in my opinion

He's still young for a CB so nice recognition for the lad, adds a few £££ to his value as well , sports Republic will be pleased.

https://x.com/AlfieHouseEcho/status/1854452088710852972?t=Qm4z5PrGg2OFsgUpxIvpBg&s=19 Seems to be quite a lot of criticism of the pricing, I think club know the half and half scarf brigade will be out in force so don't care really. Should have been £20 season ticket holders and members, then £30 for others https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/24706653.southampton-fans-disappointed-carabao-cup-ticket-prices/?ref=rss

Suppose so, hopefully we sell out , just seemed a jump double the price of Stoke in the last round in a competition that devalued itself by fixing the draw to ensure big clubs made the later rounds

You never know! More likely a reenactment of the 1-6 quarter final defeat though

Date and ticket details confirmed, seem a bit high for the Carabao but it is Liverpool I suppose https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/southampton-vs-liverpool-carabao-cup-24-25

Stop being greedy, we've had our win

Still think that's likely, might depend on whether we have the Loch Ness Drogba back to fitness by then Tall Paul is becoming a cult hero though, gets a great reception from the fans when warming up along the touchline

Fair play to you chaps, would have been me few years ago but I'd opt for the 08.15 now, split ticket works well on that line, early start , still one of the joys of an away day boarding a train at breakfast time seeing the look on normal passengers faces when you casually crack open a can of ale.

I can't see it lasting, fans of National league clubs gave it a big thumbs down when announced, Eastleigh even opted out of it. Just rubbed salt into the wounds after they voted to stop replays in a proper competition (the FA Cup)

I don't think it's right. I've bought tickets for non-members for Leicester and Everton as "season ticket additional" and both times there were literally a hundred or so left when I got them

Do the team doctors assist in the incident and therefore unavailable if needed for a player requirement so play stops until they are back in position? That was the case Rotherham home last season at St Mary's.

I'll never forget the lack of effort he put in v Chelsea in the FA Cup semi final, always had potential but never seemed to have the right attitude when a Saints player Will be man of the match for sure.

I knew our record v Wolves was bad recently but it's even worse than I realised, bogey team that even managed to beat us with 10 men against Nathan Jones side Some opposition thoughts https://www.wolvesforum.co.uk/threads/southampton-h-9-11-build-up-match-thread.38659/

That's right, sold out at "season ticket holder additional " stage and not made general

To balance that I thought they looked good and were unlucky to lose against Man City.

Always a ground we seem to struggle at , last visit was Che Adams finest moment?!

As futile as it is, I think I'd take that

I notice Chelsea at home goes on open general sale this morning, think that might be the first time this season a game has made it to this stage for non-members to buy. Seems a bit short-sighted by the club to not restrict it to purchase history as there's loads of Hampshire based Chelsea who could end up in the home end. Just a heads up if any non-members were looking to buy https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/southampton-vs-chelsea-24-25
