Newly promoted to National League, Truro City play Southampton- Under 21s at Truro City Stadium at 19:00 in the National League Cup this week. if in Cornwall on holiday, part of the Cornwall fan club or frustrated at lack of Northampton tickets to tick off another stadium then worth popping along to this new ground and seeing the Saints youngsters. Check out the Truro City website. Believe game also be shown on YouTube. Leeds Under 21s won this competition in 24/25 beating Sutton United in the final. As I understand the competition is open to National league sides playing the U21 teams from Premier League 2 teams consisting of four groups of four National League and four Premier League 2 teams, with each National League team playing four home games against the U21s in their group. The top 2 teams from each group advance to the Quarterfinals. Saints group features Aldershot Brighton U21s Fulham U21s Sutton United Truro West Ham U21s Woking Good to have some other local games in Woking, Aldershot and Sutton!

On X, from highways agency showing M42 works closure cancelled due to weather.

Add to your list of issues, M42 closed all weekend Junctions 6-7!

For those being brave and travelling to Villa Park, when on M42 last week, noted M42 is closed the entire weekend between junctions 6 (NEC/Airport) and 7 (M6) for HS2 infrastructure works. Weather not looking great either.

That’s it. How many times, Can’t hold a lead. Time to show some character.

Trying to put a pair up on Exchange on my account. Both linked to same email account. I have listed one, however struggling to work out how to list the second ticket. I can see both tickets listed when using drop down names, however can’t get the option to list the second ticket. Anybody else experienced similar issues? BTW Saint

Yes in a similar situation, with 2 tickets in block 31 with son about to go to University and was already having the same dilemma, however they hold my carried over funds.. No incentive to renew. Will email the club tickets@saintsfc.co.uk.

Will those of us who decide not to renew or take am alternative seat, and generously did not demand a refund of last years ST back be able to obtain this now. Letter now includes prices for alterative seats in block 30 and 32 however until ST renewals sorted availability will be limited. I however expect a lot of fans will not renew at £999 for Kingsland Plus or £737 for the other blocks.

Have prices been announced for blocks 30 or 32? Is £999 the most expensive, at St Mary’s £52.63 a game, £105 for a pair. Central blocks were always more expensive. No consultation or phasing in of premium plus prices. If full of corporate then atmosphere will change, most of the seats around me have until recently been occupied by long term ST holders who had the opportunity to choose seats when moving from the Dell. You would think that 20 years loyalty would gain some advantage.

Have received my letters on two season tickets in block 31, I can’t see anybody around me taking this offer up. The seats were chosen when we left the Dell, friend choose them on the half way line and not looking into the sun. I took them on formally when he stopped going a few years ago as felt he was getting to old to continue. As they were such a great location, I was reluctant to let them go and have enjoyed taking friends and family for many years. Although no desire for a padded cushion, as my daughter says part of the fun is taking a fleece to sit on, I would have tolerated a small stepped increase as a long ST term holder, however not a hike of £250 in one season. The options for alternative seats is vague and like others I was generous and left my deposit with the club until the renewal. No comparison is offered to the proposed full price for the padded seats and no explanation as to the benefits of “the gasworks’ for an additional £29! I was planning to renew, however like other ST holders who were relocated a few years ago, looks like my protest will be not to renew.

From 2014 http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/southampton-manager-search-steve-bruce-3671371

In 2014 Steve Bruce was also in the running to replace MP at St Marys, when Koeman deal was in doubt. Despite promotion he is currently unsettled at Hull with a possible change of club ownership. I have also had his name mentioned re Saints managers job from another source. Not my first choice, however worthwhile checking out the Hull message boards. Anybody else heard of rumours about Steve Bruce?

Ballboy was hanging on to the ball, however Hazard kicked him and deserved red. Chelsea out.

into last 10 Minutes

Come on Leicester- Corner

Half Time. WHU 6 attempts on goal, 4 on Target and Leicester 1 attempt and 1 on target.

At the start when walking through the prerecorded section in the changing rooms he said 15 months ago we were getting over "the sudden death of Marcus", the depature of Pardew and "hanging omninously over the play off zone", surely should have meant relegation zone! Anyway, I liked the extended coverage, would have liked more goal action, however understand the limitations of the contract. My children enjoyed seeing back stage and my daughter (6) wanted to keep rewatching the little girl having a photo taken with Nigel in the corridor. Liked the Nigel quote on the future being red and white. One for the book.
