Oops. Those extra 2 goals just make everything fine and dandy!

I am a season ticket holder that has missed one home game in 2017, West Ham at home in August. That means I have seen Saints score 4 goals at home in 2017. Four. Goals. All. ****ing. Year. Yeah, it's fair to say that i'm losing interest.

Signed it but I agree with the points raised above about it probably making no difference. We stand up from block 2 round to block 38 anyway, and they aren't going to squeeze more of us in as we will still be allocated a spot to stand in. The stadium steps weren't designed to be stood on (not deep enough). This will never happen unfortunately.

He is being scapgoated for sure. He was doing plenty of good stuff in the second half against Utd which went ignored, but every time he didn't beat his man or didn't control a difficult pass everyone around me instantly shouts "HES A CHAMPIONSHIP PLAYER!" "CHAMPIONSHIP". ****ing melts.

Cool, so what we need is more people acting childish and being antisocial and then we can return to our amazing standards of yesteryear where the banter was off the chain and people all over the stadium were getting really "hostile" and swearing a lot at the opposition fans. Wey hey. Banter. Lads lads lads lads lads lads lads lads.

I agree with many of the points raised in this thread, however I don't have a problem with anyone attending a match turning up at SMS and supporting the team in the way they see fit and are comfortable with. However, the difference in atmosphere from our first season back in the prem to now is startling. So many factors as people have already pointed out, from the dross football the last 14 months to the tremendous churn in players to the change in demographic of our base (which I actually think is being overstated by people on here in all honesty, the crowd in block 39 where I sit is broadly the same as 5 years ago, its just impossible to get yourself up for it when the display is almost always utterly boring).

Wait...I would get £750 back wouldn't I. I did say I don't bet often!

Yea, 1/2 on Betfair to stay with us. I bet about once a year, but if we trust the club then surely I can turn £500 into £1000, right?

They beat Newcastle and Palace. Calm down.

We obviously can win this, but we need to perform a lot better than vs Wolves. Looking forward to returning to my old University stomping ground regardless - expecting a tight game but Saints to show enough quality to come out on the right side of a 1-2 away victory COYR

Sold out - good effort for the first game of the season, we usually don't fill the ground til' around September from what I remember.

Hoping this one makes it as far as Season Ticket Holders...!

Hope so, really want to go to this one!

1/4 of SMS stands already so I don't see what extra benefit to atmosphere safe standing would bring. The seats are just as wide, they just fold away better to give a bit more room to stand. Safe standing is a far cry from the packed terraces of the middle-ages.

He is not wrong though is he? Everything he says is true. I'd add "He needs to please Southampton's spoilt, trigger happy childish fanbase" to the list as well.

We have a winner.

The posters on here fapping themselves saying Puel's position is untenable when the club have said absolutely nothing and all we have heard is ragtag rumours from the tabloid press More than a few being lead by their dislike of the bloke than by any concrete facts. Have you considered that Saints simply don't think there is any issue with going forward with Puel and as such don't feel the need to come out and say anything?

Thanks for sharing MLG - sorry you get hounded by the mongs for sharing what you find interesting.

...Nope! Can't believe that this hasn't been sorted yet!?

Hope we win for you mate, that is some effort

He's doing a good job with the players at his disposal - especially when you consider the number of games we have already played this season.

Sorted mine today - moving from my seat in Block 39 to get a better view from the halfway line. Will be crap sitting down for the whole match, but meh.

We are going to get pumped.

Just come across as small minded to me. Life is too short for all that hate.
