I didn't know and in fairness he calls it how he sees it

Top referee. Great interview with Keith Hackett yesterday on Talk Sport about the state of refereeing.

Probably most of them as they'll have no appetite for the Championship.

Wonder how many of that side will stick around in the championship because on this form it's where we are headed.

Gave up my ST when moved north. I accept I can't get a ticket through normal channels. Fortunately I can afford one from a ticket site but therein lies my quandary. I don't like lining their pockets, football is just becoming all about money with no thought for the fans and l think we'll just play in a negative way with the hope of springing a surprise.

I have just spoken to them and after being bounce around was told they don't sell to the general hoy polloy and you have to go through the clubs. Who did you ring?

Just for those that are thinking of this, as I am, I've done a bit of research and looked at a number of sites. Worth viewing the web site safefootballtickets.com. Anyway it appears for a bog standard behind the goal at Saints end ticket your talking about £550 which includes delivery of £10 and a hefty £147 service fee.

I think the reality of football is coming home to roost. The attitude of Fonte, the bonkers wages, over supply on TV and this season very abject performances from Saints. A lot of fans probably realise we'll be taught a lesson at Anfield and having weird it up, especially with it being on TV, have decided to give it a miss. I so hope I am wrong about the result but I don't think I will be.

I think in the current economic climate more people have to consider whether such a trip is value for money and let's face it Saints are not good value for money. I want to be entertained, I want to be excited and I want to go home feeling that I haven't been subjected to a process by a team just to get a result. Sadly that's what Sainst are like at the movement.

Loved league 1 and The Championship. Gave me the feel good factor winning which is the same as the Prem but happened more often. Cheaper to see Saints and more games. For me if we were destined for mediocrity in the Prem with mid table finishes and no cups runs I'd plump for relegation and some excitement.

Personally I'd prefer some identity back. The feel good factor is seeing us win no matter what league we are in. I enjoyed the lower leagues, we played decent football, had more games and got some success. Saturday's gave me the good feeling of having seen my team win - it didn't matter what league we were in. We also played more games and weren't being ripped off just to pay silly wages. I'm going to be radical but if relegation meant that again I'd take it. I'm fed up with being treated like a mug by The Premier League and dare I say it our club too. I'm also fed up seeing players just come and go.

When you see the behaviour of Fonte, Berahino et al and then read an article like this it makes for very sad reading. Would also be nice if maybe his old clubs especially Villa and Saints could do something for him.

I think like me fans for the money they are paying want to be entertained. I get it the semi tickets aren't expensive but for me it's a 400 mile round trip and a day off work. I've done it for decades but now I'm starting to question it and have drawn a line on this one. If we were being entertained it'd be a different matter.

He'll be off to Hull..............

Little wonder so many tickets available for the upcoming games. We are boring

Brought this on ourselves with the changes.

Yep and we will follow that up on Wednesday and go out to Arsenal because we'll play a different side again. I for one am fed up to the back teeth with rotating players and hearing they need a rest. These are young fit men being paid a kings ransom and between games doing very little. I don't have those excuses in my job and am expected to perform week in week out. It is no different for them but this attitude has Krept in to the game and now it's in vogue.

I believe that what we are seeing is what is to come for Saints under this managerial regime. Unfortunately abject mediocrity will be the norm.

Absolutely but I'd suggest ours is at the upper end. Watching that video made me wince. It's mindless and nothing can be said to defend it. Football is being used as a vehicle for this sort of behaviour and it's unfortunate to say the least.

Saints have a scummy, nasty element that follow them. Dress it how you like but videos posted about the away trip to Milan sum it up totally

I love Saints and for me the feeling we get when we win was just as good in the lower leagues. Now though I am drifting away. The grotesque wages, uninspiring manager and non descript direction we are going leaves me bored. It's expensive to follow football so they need to ***** my interest and for me it's not happening this season.

This.........I'm staggered that a multi million pound business has such a shocking web site. I don't bother with it at all.

I did last season and was a waste of money. Not bothering this year and seeing as we will not be as successful as last time round there won't be a problem getting tickets.

Can we call him MaPel for short please?
