    There was loads of tickets still  available (about 1000), give Saints or Stoke a ring in the morning I'd be surprised if you couldn't pay on the day. Mine hasn't turned up so they're going to arrange one to be collected at the ground so should certainly be possible for you to get one 

    I called the TO at around 4:45 today and they told me that sales had closed at 4:30 and that he didn't think that tickets would be available on the day. I was.....annoyed.

    Will call Stoke tomorrow to see what's what and post if I get an answer but if anyone knows differently,shout.

  2. So from POL, what I can tell you is that they are under investigation for racist chanting by the police and their stewards are recorded as doing nothing about it and allowing it to continue, this surely is fairly serious?

    Racist chanting by the police?

  3. I know what the answer would be from the management and coaching staff (media trained codswallop) but I do wonder what their aims and objects for the club really are. Do they really care about CC position and status or is it actually all about limited over c cricket? Honestly...

  4. An important point worth making is that if roster becomes synonymous with squad, then we could end up with a large team/squad photo folded up inside the match day programme or the Echo, labelled as the Saints FC Roster Poster.

     

    It you wanted that to rhyme though you'd have to pronounce "roster" as "roaster", leading to a Saints FC Roaster Poster which, given the reputation of professional footballers, would be something entirely different :scared:

  5. I would like us to use some more old school tactics occasionally, like leaving men upfield at corners, booting the ball into row z if not sure etc etc.

     

    The amount of times, not just us, but other Prem teams should just hoof the ball into row z, but don't, is getting silly now. We see more and more errors like Lovren's because he didn't just clear it.

     

    In my opinion.

     

    J-Rod last Thursday, for example. Just stick it out for a throw or, once you've turned the man, hoof it up the line...

  6. I don't know for sure how Spurs fans view the Europa League (they probably expect that a such a massive club like theirs should be expecting to win it) but I imagine they certainly expect to have a decent run into the knockout stages - the lack of depth in midfield and up front is sure to hurt them before they have the chance to strengthen in January.

     

    Shame.

  7. The new TV deal kicks in next season so some of the bigger Championship clubs (Derby, Middlesbrough) are spending big this season in the hope of getting a slice of that £££ next season. I suspect that those clubs relegated into the Championship at the end of this season will receive an awful lot of money in parachute payments next season, so getting promoted will be even harder from then on.

  8. Just a warning Willow will be away on his wedding and honeymoon for 2 weeks, from Saturday and will have his partner looking after the site so his service may not be a quick to resolve issues while he is away.

    Won't she be at the wedding too?

  9. Corbyn is everything the Electorate didn't like about Ed multiplied by 10. He's very much the wrong choice for you red chaps.

     

    At least, he is if he survives until 2020. I don't think there's a cat in hell's chance that he will though.

  10. Aah I get you. You think appearance is far more important than principle. Fortunately a lot of people are less shallow than that. And dodgy links to shady characters? You mean like our current government that sucks up to places like Saudi Arabia because it wants to sell them arms even though that state funds terrorism?

    Well that's all splendidly naïve.
