I reckon Cortese actively discouraged season ticket sales in the last close season because he wants the higher income from fans buying tickets on a match by match basis. If he makes it so difficult to buy a season ticket again (no instalment plan, very narrow purchasing window, limited publicity, no half season tickets etc), I reckon there won't be a big increase in season ticket sales.

Well why don't you sign up here - it's only a fiver and all discussion is mature, respectful and literate. I am sadly only joking.

Huddersfield deserve to go up and I believe they will. As for Bournemouth they will do a Swindon next season and go back to their true level - I hated all that bile and bitterness from them this season. Until now I had quite liked them but not any more. As for local derbies I probably wouldn't get a ticket anyway.

Cheated yesterday too - blatant push shot he didn't own up to.

If we go up I don't want Bompey in the same division as us for the next 50 years. (at least)

Pathetic showing from the middle order yet again. 3 matches gone and Division 2 beckons already.

Or will we be saying: Brighton - what a bunch of c*nts. Should have been an option.

Arsenal haven't been promoted since 1904. They're not worried by this lack of success.

Presumably you lived here pre 1969 - I know you're no spring chicken

But you already have!

It was designed by a professional graphic designer who is also a Saints fan, not an amateur. Having said that it looks very dated now and needs redesigning to bring it (and the club's image) into the 21st century. I can see changing it would upset those mongs with the tattoos though

They will not let up against Saints or anyone else, nor should we expect them to. It's professional football. If the situation were reversed would you expect us to give any less than 100%?

Ah, Capstan Full Strength - a man's cigarette. And in all probability, a dead man's cigarette.

Durham now 220-3 second innings, 403 runs ahead. I know Durham are a very good side, but I think it's going to be a long, hard season for Hampshire.

Emperor's New Clothes syndrome strikes again.

You can keep them outside in a hutch - they're hardy - inside they'll stink the house out. Don't know about rats, but they'll keep rabbits down, you shove 'em down the burrows.

They bite and stink to high heaven. HTH

I have a tip. Don't put money on horses.

Lobster's what? Are you a greengrocer?

Get over yourselves, fill the fecking thing in and forget it It's really no big deal.

I think 86pts or possibly 85 will see us promoted - possibly on goal difference.

Newcastle aren't safe yet, now to see them go down again would be funny. Raising Ashley's popularity with the toon to new heights. And Pardew's reputation. Won't happen though.

No way is no.1 Channon, I thought it was Martin Peters, but he never played for us.
