Anybody who is suggestion Lloyd James is played at right mid is mad! Yes he's got a great cross on him but thats about it as far as playing anywhere on the right side, be it in defence or midfield, is concerned. He has no pace & is simply not a winger! Put him back in his proper position as DM. Starting XI for Millwall at this stage would be: Davis Murty - Thomas - Perry - Mills Thomson - Gillett - James - Holmes Rasiak - Paterson/Saga/John Seriously need to strengthen at CB, LB & RM though. Shame we didn't sign Saeijs before Wotte left, doubt he'll come now but he'd be great in L1 alongside Thomas imo.

Anybody else for this one then? First away game of the season for me!

8,000 before the corners are opened i imagine, so 15k sold so far.

Nope, can't wait actually! The football is a minor part of Saturday for me, just being back at SMS & on the lash before hand with mates is what i'm looking forward to! Missed it for 2 months so roll on Saturday.

Starting to get a bit concerened with the way pre-season is going. We need a new manager & some players in ASAP otherwise we aren't going to be ready come the 8th August and will end up getting tonked by Millwall.

Cheers, hope to see it tomorrow then!

OS says release date is 5th August & fans can pre-order from next Monday.

Thought so, no harm in checking though!

Got my train tickets today in the post. This is probably a stupid question, but i've got 4 little cards, 2 of them say London Euston to Carlisle & Carlisle to London Euston on, the other says Carlisle to & from London Terminals. Does that mean they can be used as a ticket to get back to Waterloo?

Horrible imo, had asked the missus to buy me our new away shirt for me birthday but told her not to bother now. I do like some of the new training gear though, any news on when that will be on sale?

No Ajax ticket or ST in the post, got my Carlisle train tickets tho!

Same as me then. Not home yet but won't be expecting anything in the post when i do get back, then hopefully to my surprise it will have arrived!

Lol. When did you renew/buy yours?

Anybody received their ST's in the post today btw?

Great to see alot of new buyers for ST's, hopefully with them + renewals we'll go past double figures. 12 or 13k would be awesome, almost sure to be getting near on 20k crowds with that amount of ST holders. With no debts to service & 20k gates we'd be in a very good position even without Mr Liebherr's money.

Well there's me + 2 so thats 8. ianthesaint + ? & dan + 1. I've just had a look on national rail, 4 of us going all with a railcard each brings it out at £17.20 each including our tube ticket. PS If you guys are happy to do this, then we could also all do it for Charlton & the other London away days we have this season.

So how many are there getting the 6am train from Soton Central to Waterloo & buying their tickets on the day there?. I'm 1 + 2, ianthesaint & dan also appear to have a couple, hopefully we can club enough together to do 2 or 3 lots of 2 for 4 deals. As ianthesaint posts above, meet at Central about 5.45 and we can go from there!

Sounds good to me, we'll be the ones with the crates of carling in our hands!! No postage fee for me either, booked direct through Virgin.

Ground guide here: http://www.footballgroundguide.com/cheltenham_town/ Cheltenham away would be a good cup draw me thinks, not far too go, nice little stadium too.

Just over 9k i think it was.

Thats good so far, 5k in 3 days. Still about 4k to renew yet too. Double figues should be the target. Pleased there looks like being atleast 20k for Ajax too.

Free agent i believe?

Just emailed Mr Luker enquiring how many ST's have been renewed & sold, i'll post it on here when i get a reply. Also i emailed him yesterday to see if the club would be re-introducing the free bus with match tickets scheme. His reply was not this season although it can be reviewed for next season. Lastly, as i posted yesterday - ST's being posted out yesterday & today.
