Who said he wouldn't play?

He played every minute of their last game vs Spurs.

Carragher and Agger are hardly "quick".

The post I quoted says... "I'm guessing the building next to the stadium would be clad in Corten steel and, it wouldn't surprise me if it's a large banqueting suite, as AFL also incorporated a similar wedge shaped building into the new stand at Edgbaston." It then says "Corten Steel:" and shows a similar(ish) building (The Mcphail centre for music) to the one in the St Mary's building clad in Corten Steel. Discussing cladding may not be everyone's idea of fun, but it is still relevant to this thread however dull it might seem.

tbf to Chelsea it isn't their fault.

When would you have put the FA Cup replay? Made extra hard if Chelsea stay in the Europa League.

Well it is interesting to me, so

Back on topic, this is interesting...

No Turkish Delight?

Not good news if you had made plans for the Saturday. This game has now changed dates twice.

Game has been moved back to Saturday 30th March at 3pm ffs!

I have a spreadsheet you can use to analyse your findings.

I think you'll struggle to name many teams that would get over 74,000 people through the turnstiles for 3 games whilst in administration and heading for relegation. Pompey for example will get about 33,000 for 3 games this season.

Exactly! The 3 Championship home matches after Lowe left and relegation to League One a certainty = 23k, 27k, 24k

Does that matter? The fact they have a number of games in a 24k stadium not sold out is telling in itself that it isn't the best comparison.

Reading struggle to sellout a 24k stadium in the Premier League, Saints average over 30k and sellout a 32k stadium doe a number of games.

A planning application in next 18 months if we remain in the Premier League, possibly even at the end of this season if we stay up.

Like you, I don't know. But i wouldn't be so quick to rule it out being relatively soon as you and others are. I get the impression Cortese doesn't like waiting around for too long and wants quick progression. He is selling the club to player that we will be competing for Europe next season, perhaps on the face of it very ambitious, but that is the man at the helm. This is possibly the most exciting time ever to be a Saints fans, sit back and enjoy the ride rather than attacking me, even if you think I'm delusional.

So you think Saints might from 2015 onwards? Do you think an application might go in during the next two seasons?

Not sure why I need to respond, you listed fewer games than Saints have/will sold out this season during a relegation fight.

I don't know if you noticed but I was far from definite in that post, I was merely stating when the club couldn't do construction work and used the word "perhaps" for when it could. If you hadn't noticed, 2014 hasn't ended yet either.

You seem to assume if said "soon", I meant weeks or months. As we now have another set of more detailed images, does that not suggest something has moved forward since the season ticket DVD?

Why are you even asking that? You know full well I don't know. I wouldn't underestimate Cortese's drive to progress the club as quick as he can though, once survival this season is obtained I think we may see something more on this.

As I said, they don't own their stadium, nor have access to the matchday revenue. Saints do.

I don't know if you noticed but Coventry don't own their stadium, nor to they have access to the matchday revenue. Not the best example Mr Turkish!
