This website seems to have used one of your photos already... http://www.artnouveau.com.gr/photo-gallery/cute-boutique-hotel-the-yard-hotel-milano/

Squad just landed at Malpensa (well, I assume its their charter plane)

Why does it have to be a matter of 'right' or 'wrong'. Opinions are just that... Opinions. If some people view this game as the biggest occasion in Saints' history then that's reasonable. It's equally reasonable if others don't see it that way. In my humble opinion of course...

That first goal is a cracker

6pm

7 ?

I'm flying in on Thursday morning so if you could do a recce of all those venues tomorrow evening and report back on their viability for Thursday afternoon that would be appreciated!

I did have him in the starting 11 instead of Yoshida up to 5 seconds before posting if that's any consolation?

Ok, time for a guess at the squad for Thursday (assumptions on fitness abound)... Starting 11: Forster, Martina, Yoshida, VvD, Bertrand, Hojbjerg, JWP, Romeu, Tadic, Long, JRod Bench: McCarthy, McQueen, Fonte, Davis, Classie, Boufal, Austin

Duomo certainly seems to be the city centre tourist hub (think: Trafalgar Square, I guess). Ok, so any bars/cafes/restaurants in the vicinity will likely be taking the p1ss with their tourist trap prices but at least they're guaranteed to be open.

Hope no-one was planning to go via Eurotunnel today... http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/eurostar-delays-trains-suspended-eurotunnel-france-uk-cancellations-latest-a7367926.html

Some interesting thoughts from Austin himself on this on TalkSport yesterday: http://talksport.com/football/i-have-heard-nothing-form-southampton-star-charlie-austin-plays-down-talk-england-call

Some info posted on the 'Away Supporters' sub-forum which will probably get a wider audience re-posted here...

1) Keep selling our best players every summer

There's nothing better than an FA Cup first round draw the same week we jet off to Milan to remind us of the chasm between the two clubs.

I've heard the Pope might be a Catholic too....

Boufal will struggle to get in this side

Burnley should've had a penalty there IMO

Won't you need your actual passport to get into Italy in the first place,?
