True. Outside these hours it’s tickets@saintsfc.co.uk

Have you tried calling the ticket office?

That's how I feel. The current situation also flags p the inequity in the coverage of teams.

Mine was paid back to my credit card last Friday and showed up yesterday.

Not tonight he isn’t

Ta muchly

That view cuts off the view of the ball being kicked which looked to me like it had already left his boot.

It would turn it into something like the American system of team franchises where the games are played purely for the TV audiences (and money). The link to the local communities would be gone forever. It’s not football any more.

Let’s hope the whole shebazzle is a complete failure. And we can help to achieve that by boycotting it.

Law 4 just says: shinguards – these must be made of a suitable material to provide reasonable protection and covered by the socks

Shin pads are compulsory- Law 4.

And a much poorer experience.

Trial and error. Every error is a trial keep up the good work Steve, much appreciated.

I got an email from the club yesterday: Your Season Ticket pro-rata refund for the home match against Tottenham Hotspur has now been processed. The amount paid will be 1/19th of your total Season Ticket cost and all money will go back to the card used for initial payment. Some supporters will receive multiple payments due to the separate orders that sit on their account. Payments may take a few days to appear depending on banking provider. If you have concerns payment hasn’t gone through please contact the Ticket Office call centre open every Tuesday and Wednesday via 02381 780780. The Club would like to thank all supporters for their patience in these difficult times. The Club has undertaken many tests to ensure all payments are complete and correct, which going forward, will help improve the speed of refunds as we continue into the 2020/21 season. The pro-rata refund process for the West Bromwich Albion match has already begun and we endeavour to return your refund in a shorter time frame. We will confirm once this has been completed. Thank you for your support.

He spends a lot of his time looking for fouls. He hangs onto the ball too long when a pass would keep our game moving in the hope of drawing in an opponent and then puts himself in a position where he’s going to get fouled. A great cross for our first goal though.

Brilliant from Ings. An overhead kick into goal from a few yards out.

Congratulations to him. I’ve always liked him when he played for us but we should not forget that he scored the third goal for Villa when they came back from 2-0 down to beat us in April 2005.

Yep. It’s not been too great today. Home page not too bad, lounge almost inaccessible but a search for unread posts is the worst.

My refund has shown up today on my credit card with a posting date of Monday 5th. One nineteenth of the gross price that I paid less £0.12 for some reason.

Is there enough lithium in the world? Motor vehicles alone will probably need more than the known resources can provide.

Me too. I feel for Steve and his colleagues. They must be tearing their hair out.

How can you tell?

True, but all these contingencies come at a cost. Regarding standby turbines, when I was studying engineering at university one of my subjects was power generation and we were told about a problem that arose with outdated generators that had previously been running 24 hours a day but were used to cover peak demands. They were going through two or three thermal cycles a day instead of one or two a year and were suffering failures due to metal fatigue of their casings. Energy exchange is a good idea and necessary with renewables like wind where the source of generation is widely dispersed. Let’s hope that we can stay friends with the French and Ireland. As you say, nuclear is very expensive and the reason for the fast breeder reactors was to provide fuel for our nuclear weapons. We are bequeathing a hideous problem to our descendants. I’m all for cleaner sources of energy but to expect to achieve total supply within ten years is cloud cuckoo land.

Renewables are useful and important but is wind power any good in a prolonged spell of high pressure in February?

Hoedt played in the 1-0 win at Swansea and the BBC gave him Man of the Match. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/43353971
