West ham away! Opening day 1-0 win to kick things off!!!!!

Love the guy. Ballsy. Brave. Doesn't give a **** what the press (or in fact anyone ). Makes important decisions. Stands by his decisions. Decisions are vindicated. All the characteristics of top businessman and top chairman to lead the club forward.

I was there too - for the love of God can we stop with the false rumours of goals! we had the same rumours vs Sheff Utd about Leicester on the final day of 07/08 - cut it out/get it right!

Will the game be on telly at all?

Incredibly underrated player and a valuable asset. The sooner he's back the better

But seriously though, I can understand being inhibited from going on the pitch after the Plymouth game as its their ground and it might be us who condemn them to relegation, but surely if we are promoted then theres nothing wrong with celebrating at our own ground on our own pitch

Who cares?! We'll never play there again! We'll never play them again!

The pressure isn't as harsh as we might think - as long as we match Huddersfield's result away at Brighton, we'll be on schedule. Even if the absolute worst comes to the absolute worst and we lose and they win, all we've got to do is beat Plymouth away and we'd still go into our final game of the season at home with it all in our hands. Having said that, if we can win, then the finish line is in sight.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what did i say about penalties in the half-time thread!!!!!!!

It sure has been a long time since we were awarded a penalty...

Mines on my order history and debit card statement but not delivered yet. I've only been to one away game this season

If Lallana can turn this game around for us, I've got a feeling it'll be his first massive game in terms of etching himself into a true Saints legend

Anyone with a radio link?

A draw tomorrow would be great - that'll put it mathematically in our own hands. Then its just so simple. 4 games to go. 4 wins garuantee it.

Y'know what - I couldn't care less about the result of tomorrow's game as long as we're promoted. Full stop. League 1 is utterly meaningless to a club of Southampton's size apart from as a necessary obstacle to achieve promotion into the Championship and subsequently the top flight. You think Norwich give a damn about the fact they won League 1 last year in relation to the fact they raped Ipswich last night? You think Leeds are crying to themselves about the fact they only came second last year in relation to their chase for a play-off spot this season? You think Forest even bother to remember the League 1 swamp that they had to wade through to achieve promotion to the Championship and target promotion once again? Of course not. Southampton as a city regards this league as little more than an irksome little chore to be done before the real job of getting out of the Championship begins. Tomorrow is NOT a derby. Its not even a more important game that Hartlepool at home or Brentford away. It is yet another complete nothing of a football match which we will be trying to win to bolster our own points total and nothing else. A victory tomorrow will not even be cause for any celebration but a satisfied fist pump before the journey home. A defeat will mean little more than an indifferent shrug before we crush our remaining four fixtures. Southampton are bigger than this league. Southampton are bigger than Brighton.

Woooohoooo! with my one away game this season (although I've been to a fair few before + I've been a STH for a few seasons now) I've got my ticket

Urgh...not looking too promising for me then. Fair enough as I've only been to one away game this season, although I am a STH and have been for a few years now.

When you say "order history" do you mean online or on your debit/credit card history?

Pfft. So nick a point at Brentford and we're on course to go up even in the mind of the most pessimistic of us!

Do we have any chance whatsoever of getting Schneiderlin back for the final few games?

Well Goberns obviously well over 6 foot and OC obv well under - just a mistake on the site

"Glory glory Markus Liebherr" it has to be. Sounds proud, triumphant - and carries the perfect tone for celebrating the life and contribution of our saviour "theres only one blablabla" is too boring

Does anyone know when we'll find out if we've been "picked" from the ballot? I'm a STH and i've been to a fair few away games in the past but only Sheff Weds this season so its kinda unlikely I know

Anyone know when the Brentford away tickets are on sale for Season ticket holders?

Radio link anyone?
