Block 5

Shout out fi Gibbo!

Hull's victory has saved me a fortune in therapy!

I've been on a wellness retreat for the last 10 days, where there was a complete screen detox; so nobody has had access to the internet. It's been incredibly relaxing, and I'm quietly confident of a Saints win. I'm about to set off for Wembley, and haven't caught up with any team news. Is Captain Jack fit?

I wanted to get seats with some mates who aren't ST holders or members, so I thought I'd leave it in the lap of the gods, and wait until the final window. I'd been checking the tickets situation for 24 hours prior to that final window opening, and the only seats left, were at the back of the top level. That was it. But at 1.30pm, when I got out of the waiting room, and on to the site, there were quite a few other seats available, all around our end of the stadium. And somehow, I managed to get 4 seats together in block 126... No idea what happened, but the football gods were clearly smiling.

Stern John's hat trick goal vs Hull in 2007 was pretty memorable for me.

Time for the chumps at SR to pull the trigger. Let's hope that they've used the time since the Bournemouth fiasco to line up the next guy....

Ok, I've sorted it. I have to assign to myself. The reason I couldn't.... I was trying to buy 3 extra when I I'm only permitted buy two! Thanks for your help @Jaime @JRM @trousers

@Jaime But that doesn't make sense. Why would a season ticket holder want to buy an additional ticket for a season ticket holder (who already has a ticket), or a member (who's already had the opportunity to buy a ticket in a previous window)? @JRMI tried assigning the additional tickets to myself but that didn't work. The system prompted me to assign to someone else.

Hopefully someone can help.... I've been trying to get a couple of extra tickets using the season ticket holder additional feature. When I get to the point where you assign a supporter number to the additional seat, all the people in my friends and family list are greyed out and cannot be selected. There's also an asterisk after their name. My own name is not greyed out. Am I doing something wrong? Why can't I buy additional tickets? Thanks for in advance.

Russell Martin, he's got Down's He's got Down's, he's got Down's. Russell Martin, he's got Down's So has Rasmus! {Note - the above post is quite clearly ironic, and does not constitute a hate crime.}

Mine arrived today.

Utter bollox. That game should have been over at half time. The second half should have seen Cardiff player's wandering around in fit flops. Spunked chances cost us the game.

Quite a few posters seem to be glad Wilcox is off. Who would they like to see come in as his replacement?

I'm looking forward to the red & white wall; it'll be totally awesome..... with smoke, flares, and world class tifos.

Does anyone know how the guy who fell at the foot of the block 5 stairs is doing? I stayed with him until the paramedics arrived. I think his name might have been Darryl? I just wanted to wish him a speedy recovery.

One centre back on the bench. No full backs. This is a bit of a worry.....

The Ironsides - The Web. From their 2023 long player, Changing Light. A great album, featuring eight instrumental cuts of lush strings and fat soul beats. Very reminiscent of Stefano Torossi & Armando Roelens or Ennio Morricone, or even David Axelrod.

My old man's a scummer, He's filled with bile and hate, He'll kick your fucking head in, If you're a dirty skate.

My old man's a scummer, He wears a scummer's hat, He fucking hates John Westw**d, Cos he's a paedo twat. To the tune of my old man's a dustman.

Sorry to hear that mate. He'll be watching today's game with Bobby Stokes; best seats in the house.

Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals!

6pm kick off on a Friday is utter bollocks. This is a normal working day for me, with a 5pm finish. That would give me an hour to drive from Andover to my car parking spot, and then walk to the ground. Thanks Sky, you twats. I shall have to spend Wednesday and Thursday coercing and convincing work colleagues into helping facilitate an early finish.

I got to know him a bit, away from the forum, and he was a really nice guy. And definitely one of the more interesting posters from the golden age of SWF.
