Pamplemousse

Previously they did give a free voucher to every fan, I think they did it for a Fulham game a couple of years ago around Christmas. Presumably the Middlesbrough free pie was the FAB idea and naturally they restricted it to just travel users. Looking after their own. I've been to pretty much every away game; don't expect or want a reward but only giving a reward to a certain section because of how they travel is not on at all. I don't live in Southampton so I wouldn't be able to get the official coach anyway! I note in those minutes that there was a discussion about the Portsmouth game but no feedback shared about the fact a bubble was in place at all! So what's the point of raising anything with them.

Maybe Fulham told us we had to buy the whole block of tickets in advance and we declined.

Yeah it's annoying that it's on the same weekend as Easter. The issue is that the previous weekend is the international break which would be the usual slot for the Quarter finals, last week of March. They could've done in the weekend of the 21st maybe but that's only two weeks after the fifth round. And next year the international break falls at the same time as Easter so no Easter games at all for Championship teams

Hard to assess, lots of players under Will Still didn't look particularly good

If we had stuck with Ivan Juric for this season, we'd be runaway leaders.

The Championship is shit and I'd rather we were a stable Premier League team again, even if we don't win as many games.

Not a great performance but we got the job done, even if it we made it harder for ourselves. Atmosphere wasn't great, maybe it was down to the fact that it was taking 45 minutes plus to get a pint in the away end!!

This won't be a 5-0 thrashing. They'll sit deep and we always struggle to break teams like that down. We should win but it won't be simple. 2-0

It wouldn't surprise me if Hull dropped out, there's always a team in the top 4 or 5 that have a shocking end of the season.

Disappointing outcome but only one team was trying to win that. We did the same to teams last season as Charlton did and fluked our way to results (think Man City at home) - it happens. We played well, move on and win on Tuesday.

Blackburn last minute winner!!

Looks like there are about 1500 tickets available so should be near 30k crowd. Charlton haven't sold the full 3000 though.

Engineering works in Winchester that weekend as well for anyone getting the train up. I reckon we should still easily take 4000 plus.

We did pretty well against Liverpool earlier in the season, any they only just scraped past Stoke in the last round. They should win but we have a chance.

Because it's the Champions League the midweek after and the fixtures won't be known until a couple of weeks time, it's quite likely that all the games involving those teams will be on the Saturday. It depends how flexible UEFA are willing to be. Which often they're not. Not sure if they will schedule any games for the Monday (possibly West Ham v Brentford) but it might be 1 on Friday, and then 3 or 4 each on Saturday/Sunday I think every game will be on TV so it's more likely it'll be on the Sunday than Saturday, simply because more games need to be on a Saturday and ours can be on the Sunday. If cannot be Monday as we play on Wednesday. It also depends if TNT want each game in a unique slot or not. We'll find out by the end of the week anyway but I reckon it'll be the Sunday.

The worst possible draw would be Port Vale/Bristol City. They play on the Tuesday before the 5th round weekend so good luck to any club having to sort out away tickets in a couple of days

Have to be wary about them. They beat Ipswich 3-0 away, and there's absolutely no way they will be as open as they were in November. We should win but they seemed to have turned things around after a dodgy spell, much like we have.

Check his hard drive

Loads of tickets left, going to be a small crowd despite the cheap tickets. Hopefully the uptick in form will see a few last minute purchases

Opta's supercomputer now has us finishing 6th at the end of the season. https://theanalyst.com/competition/english-championship/table

If anyone fancies some bedtime reading... it is well recommended https://www.foxestalk.co.uk/topic/138785-southampton-match-thread-h-745/page/33/#comments From Stewart's goal

Just on the train home. The greatest game I've ever been to. Forget the first half, it was shit. The second half was incredible. We never do that. That stuff happens to us, not the other way around. I'm in complete shock but I love it. Apart from Portsmouth, that was the perfect team for that to happen against. That avenges the 9-0 and that awful last-minute goal last season. We're even now. And even better we get to rub it in their faces on Saturday. Hahahahahahaha. Fuck off you foxy cunts.

They were absolutely terrible when we played them at home. Just strange how uncompetitive they ate especially with Mavididi and Fatawu

It's absolutely doable - especially as we still have to play most of those teams. Wrexham and Preston away, Bristol City, Derby and QPR at home. But ultimately we just have to keep winning. It's in our own hands still.
