  1. Spoke to ticket office this morning, we have been sent an extra 300 tickets, and tickets will also be available for Saints end at Yeovil ticket office on the night
  2. It's just over an hour from my house in Salisbury to the ground going via the A303 NB when I leave work at 5PM in the center of Southampton it's normally 6PM before I get home
  3. Bus may be available to Yeovil (town centre) before the game, but that's 2- 3 miles form ground. I'd be surprised if any bus available after the game, so taxi is only option, which I would suggest you'll need to pre-book taxi to get back to station
  4. How times have chaged back in the 80's we let Graham Baker go to Man City, because Steve Williams prevented him getting into the first team on a regular basis.
  5. but we would have drawn if that goal hadn't been allowed correctly as per the rules
  6. I thought so at the time. Fonte was just about to head the ball when the bloke pushed him in the back
  7. True I bought tickets for seatrs yesterday for myself my lad and a couple of mates
  8. There nothing wrong with Nick and he's always asked for by the media because he is easy to get hold of.. and has a record of many years of generally giving sensible resposes to media questions when put on the spot. You may not agree with his views, but I don't agree with many of yours, so what
  9. I don't think many people are worried about getting knocked out of JPT and Carling Cup, but IMO many peoaple would be worried about the style of last nights defeat, when we were really poor, which given how well we played on Saturday with 9 of last nights starting 11 has to be worrying.
  10. Loads of decent pubs near Temple Meads, including Knights Templar (wehterspoons) very close to station and many others within 5mins walk form there http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/10/10235/Knights_Templar/Bristol
  11. Cup win 76 - In my lounge surrounded by my spurs supporting family as they cheered saints home. In Block D9 of East Terrace went absolutely mad when we scored and at Final Whistle, then hid my joy from Man U hoards on way back to car to aviod geting my head kicked in, got food poisoning after celebration meal at Sandhurst on way home Keegan signed - Finished a paper round and I could see the excitement in my mums face as I walked in the door, Keegan has just signed for Saints she said... Gob smacked was my reaction. At work in Salisbury just couln't believe it only way to check info was on radio or when I got home on TV as no internet Saints put the sixth past Man Utd when Egil scored- Outside some langdown flats doing a delivery as I was screaming with disbelief. Under the East Stand giving the Man U fans stick what a great day St Marcus passes away - Sat at home when I browse the forum and saw 350 users online, wow we have signed someone big I thought, but I was brought back down to earth. Now that did hurt and still does. Driving home from work in Southampton, was stunned, just couldn't believe it. Lasting memory of Supporting Saints was the away game in Marseilles losing game 2-1 but going through 5-2 on aggregate then after escaping a riot in the ground being on the coaches taking us back to the airport after the game where all the coaches were stoned by Marseilles fans mosts of the way to the airport many of their fans on on mopeds !
  12. Exactly people moaned about the Bournemouth prices, but we still had 13,000 of our supporters turn up which was more than we had last season for Birmingham in 2nd round when we charged £10 a head
  13. Don't forget you have to pay a tax to use motorways in Switzerland, which used to be a blanket charge rather than a toll as in France
  14. Interlaken is quite a way from where the two games are being played, Thun is closest but Friebourg is miles away
  15. When I purchased my season ticket at the ticket office last week, there were supporters who were not existing season ticket holders purchasing New season tickets.
  16. Renewed lunchtime at ticket office, where there were several people getting season tickets for the first time

    Away games

    Dagenham could be another problem game allocation as only 1200 tickets allocated to away fans
  18. At many away grounds last season they charged more for tickets purchased on the day of the game than those bought in advance
  19. There is a difference with these groups as these are all Official recognised by Southampton FC as are others such as Basingstoke Saints, Northern Saints, Maltese Saints etc; whereas SISA, and Perry's group are not.
  20. all the info is here http://www.havantandwaterlooville.net/news.aspws.asp
  21. They are also going on a pre-season tour of USA. Unless someones paying for them to go can't see how they can afford that either
  22. Lugana was the wine I drank most of at Lake Garda on the three holidays I'd had in Peschiera on Southern End of Lake. with it's own railway station with regular trains to Verona, Venice, Milan and Brescia.
  23. Burnley palyed a couple of games near Lake Garda two or three pre-seasons ago when I was on holiday. They played their games at Bordolino just south of Garda. I saw a few of their fans whilst out on a day trip on boat to Sirmione and later managed to meet up with a Burnley supporting mate who was over there for the games. Great location for pre-season tour IMO, although can be very hot end of July.
  24. I was among the 10 or so Saints fans at those games, the Club never let on where the games were to be played, fearing crowd trouble, but via a contact in Italy we managed to find out all the details. We had a great time in the Aosta Valley in North West Italy, including visiting the Italian side of the Matterhorn and mingling with the Saints players and directors in St Vincent. It was amazing when we took the lead aginst Juve but they were far too good for us which is not surprising given the players they had in their side that day.
  25. Your quite right I blame Hampshire County Council too
