Third best in the league for stats (i think) so not bad for a club as south as we are.. dirty Leeds and West Ham in front.

http://www.footballforums.net/forums/showthread.php/277307-Championship-Away-Following-2011-12 Interesting read, We have an average of 2,364 fans per away game, and this didnt include the Hull and Skate games. Well done Saints Fans !! Oh and by the way that's over a thousand more than the skates..

Interesting listening to Billy's interviw on saints player where he does say he wasnt as fit as the other lads when he joined at that was the reason he was left out of the proceeding games, very honest and hard working bloke tho. Looking forward to a "saints fit" Billy Sharp after a good pre-season behind him. Also, interesting to hear him say about the game against the boro, he said he's looking forward to it but not happy with it being on the tele as they havnt done to well recently !!, it does get to all of us then..very confident saturdays our day tho. coyr's

The Echo claim it will be a weeks trial. Hold on to your hat Mr Barnard it's gonna be a long week !

Christ, i'd like to see your'e missus then mate !!

I think Morgan provides something different to Deano and Jack Cork in the middle, When he got injured by the skates some of our creativity went out the window, Deano and Jack Cork (especially) are very good ball winners and passers of the ball. The palace game was a physical battle in the middle of the park which suited them both, thats why we all said they had a good game, Against Reading at times we looked one dimensional and needed something different, thats what Morgan gives a touch of class maybe or he see's a pass that the other 2 doesnt. But hey what do i know, we still should have beaten the skates three times over and scored at least 3 times againts Reading. Still, lots to be positive about....It's a funny old game....!!

For me it's got to be Watford, absolutely boring as hell atmosphere this season, i didnt here one song all game. it's a nothing club IMO.

Got mine this morning on Internet, it said you can only purchase if you bought the other previous 2 games. Pressed ok even tho I didn't and it still let me buy them so hopefully they will come thru !

Lallana made a great tackle for lambert to dispatch his second, but agree its good to see others pulling there weight today. Well done lads and and done saints fans, we were great today.

Totally agree about Guly. It's a tough life being a pro footballer, earning lots of money isn't it ? Crosby got hold of and gave him a cuddle, ah bless...get a life, take your criticism and make a difference when you come on, rant over !

Ditto, I'd like a little word with them as well

Cant remember what year but during early 90's we sang k Sara Sara put the champagne on ice were' going to wembley twice k sara Sara. pretty bad I know ! That was under the east stand by the tap !

Can definately confirm there are tickets for sale on line at Crystal Palace...Fill your boots people !!

Went on the palace site earlier and saints have been allocated the whole side but there are "strerile areas" at one end. Maybe we have been given more tickets ? http://www.cpfc.co.uk/page/MatchTicketInformation/0,,10323~2658389,00.html

Just picked my ticket up for the skates match and the TO said they only had a few remaining. So it will defo be a sell out. Sha lala...

Thought i'd brighten up a rather crap day in our house hold after yesterdays performance by listening to some old saints records, I'll start but please add to the list below: Just like 76 Southampton Boys Rather bad version of Oh when the saints 84 FA Cup Version Does anyone remember "we wanna goal" Early 80's ? Yellow (Coldplay take off)

Super Steve Moran hatrick and Ian baird got the other. God we were good against a very poor city side with Kevin bond at the back. Steve Williams was a fantastic player for saints even tho his arrogance went against him. Danny Wallace would be worth a fortune these days. Funny hearing the city fans shouting Tina Tina at Shilts (you have to be old enough to remember)!!

Theres nothing on the website to say the tickets are collection only, i also bought palace tickets so hopefully they will come togethor. Does anyone know if the skate game is close to selling out yet ? it must be fairly close by now.

Yes..

Strange...i bought mine online and they will be shipped via mail ?

For me he definitely sits in the bracket with tarrico and Michael brown. Hate all three of them. Oh and John Bailey if anyone remembers him !

Saints Player is crap today...keeps bloody stopping.

It's not St Patricks day it's St Lamberts day ...sha la la

Watching eastleigh lose (they were crap) only there cus nipper was ball boy. Then watching eldest running up and down celebrating the winner. Well done lads sha la la....

Its a tough one...i really really really hate the mockney skate c***s and want them to fold, but on the other hand Reading are coming up on the outside rails. I think a draw will do the job for me !
