LGTL

Lower tier and upper tier tickets available at midday.

Saints aren't handling the ticket postage, it's being done by a company called Ticketzone in Exeter. Mine all came on Tuesday.

Yeah, think we'd go into the 3rd qualifying round

Email me with your customer number, surname, postcode (so I can add you as a friend) and your card details (if you trust me not to rob you) and I'll try do your ticket for you at midday. If you provide me with a UK address I could post it to, I post it there for you too. kaiser_7@hotmail.co.uk

That is going to be one almighty scramble at midday!

Looks like we were both wrong! The ticket website now stating that the additional tickets are open to members with 2 home games and members with 3+ aways.

I read it as only available for members with 3 away games or more.

And only 16 points between top and bottom.

I wonder if the extra tickets are upper or lower tier?

It does make me laugh how someone could have done Israel, Prague, Milan and every single away game, including all away EFL cup games, and be a member, but not get a ticket because they haven't done 2 home games

They've just dragged it out for so long. Should have been sold out and sorted by the end of last week.

So they'd leave tickets unsold, assuming they don't sell out tomorrow?

They won but Carlisle beat Donny, so they are no nearer to 3rd

Hopefully this can be the beginning of a PL revival. I would love Newcastle, Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds to replace the boring crap like Hull, Bournemouth, Swansea etc. Those three are proper clubs. Hopefully Forest can get a bit of improvement too although think that's unlikely.

For away day fun and frolics - Newcastle, Brighton and Reading If not Reading, I'd like to see Leeds (good night out) or Huddersfield.

Nice to see some humour. Reminded me of what this place use to be like before it went a bit soft.

Manolo is magic He wears a magic hat And when he came to Southampton he found the fuc*ing net He's scoring with his left foot He's scoring with his right And when he scores/scored at Wembley We'll sing his song all night Delete as applicable. Ignore after the final if he doesn't score/we get battered.

As a kid born in '88, I've only ever known Saints to be relatively rubbish up until very recently. All the others at school supported the likes of Utd, Arsenal and Liverpool but I never went through that weird stage as a kid (some of which are making up our group of 10 or so lads going to the final, they saw sense in early teens!) I've been Saints through and through though since I was old enough to walk and had a ST since I was 5. Block Q, Row 4 seat 197 at the Dell. Happy times. I can remember crying my eyes out whenever Saints lost, and it made for a pretty miserable childhood watching them, bar MLT. I went to Cardiff in 03 but at 15 I couldn't really do the day as I'd have liked. Having done pretty much every game home and away with the same 6 or 7 lads since L1, this game means everything to us. We are all now at the perfect age to appreciate what this means, and to know where we've been over the last 10 years to get there. Yes it's only a League Cup final, but the fact it means this much is exactly why I pity any glory hunting, armchair sitting big 4 club 'fan' who cheer on another premier league win through their TV every year. It'll be a proud day for the club, our brilliant city and 31,000 other Saints, and I can't wait to experience it with the same fellas who I go with every week. Up the Saints.

Boufal for JWP and I think we've actually got a chance.

So excited. Up the Saints

Absolutely. And our end will no doubt be full of people just looking to enjoy their big day out, moan about people wanting to stand and sing and covered in replica tat. Here's hoping we don't embarrass ourselves.

Not about whether it should be allowed or not. I'm just saying it's unlikely to happen. Every cup final at Wembley is stood behind the goal, pretty sure we were all stood for the JPT. All the Utd fans will be stood.

They can try and enforce it all they want, it isn't going to happen.

I'd say this is fairly accurate. I'll be drinking in central London trying to avoid said 'atmosphere'. 06.55 train for us, group save means only £25 return. Happy days.

Trains running from Central, replacement buses running from Bournemouth/Brockenhurst.
