Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk well its definitely no reserved seating for tomorrow but I dont know about the stands all being open. I would guess not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 2 August, 2016 Share Posted 2 August, 2016 It's first come first served and no idea what's going to be open. I suppose you could go online for the Bilbao tickets and see how many we've sold and take about 10% off that for it being midweek and people being forgetful - though the only people I know who aren't going to one game are going Weds and can't make Sunday.

JRM Posted 2 August, 2016 Share Posted 2 August, 2016 well its definitely no reserved seating for tomorrow but I dont know about the stands all being open. I would guess not i was wondering that, have a ticket for the chapel stand for Sunday but would like to sit in the Kingsland tomorrow night, will see if it is open, and if so if my ticket lets me in there. there will be a small crowd, i doubt more than 8000 tomorrow night so would not surprise me to just see two stands open .

derry Posted 3 August, 2016 Share Posted 3 August, 2016 Asked at the ticket office when I bought mine on Saturday and the chap there said all stands would be open. That would make sense as the Sunday match seats were reserved for ST holders in all areas and the same ticket is valid for Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lets B Avenue Posted 3 August, 2016 Share Posted 3 August, 2016 That would make sense as the Sunday match seats were reserved for ST holders in all areas and the same ticket is valid for Wednesday. But not for the same seat. It's a free-for-all tonight, so I'm going to try for next to Claude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllSorts Posted 3 August, 2016 Share Posted 3 August, 2016 What size crowd are we expecting? Only 2 games and 10 weeks before Watford. Surely there will be a strong side put out with no exceptions bar the newest lads? Or maybe the likes of Cedric, Fonte and Bertrand will come on second half? Be interesting to see which youngsters still feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lallana's Left Peg Posted 3 August, 2016 Share Posted 3 August, 2016 With the squad nearly set I'll be very interested to see what kids get minutes over the next two games and who takes their chance. It is very clear to me from the Puel interviews yesterday that he has a remit to ensure there is a pathway to the first team for the youngsters so lets see who takes their chance in these games.

The9 Posted 3 August, 2016 Share Posted 3 August, 2016 I can see us going full on with the first team tonight (maybe with Fonte and Cedric sitting out though), it's midweek against European opposition and they'll probably be trying to manage the situation to get a routine for the group games. Also, because there's a reasonable possibility of us playing Athletic Bilbao in the Group Stages (they're definitely in the group stages and a seed in Pot 1, whilst we can't be in that Pot), I think we'll play a weaker side on Sunday. That does fly a little in the face of conventional wisdom, so maybe we bring Bertrand back tonight and give Pied his debut but but stick with Van Dijk and Yoshida in the middle, then bring Fonte and Cedric back on Sunday, with Hjobjerg in front in one game and Romeu in front in the other. We have enough midfielders and strikers to make up two separate sides for tonight and Sunday without overly relying on the kids anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also no sign of Florin still. Guess we will find out tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Johnson Posted 3 August, 2016 Share Posted 3 August, 2016 SAINTS: Forster; Martina, Yoshida, Van Dijk, McQueen; Romeu; Ward-Prowse, Clasie; Tadić; Long, Redmond. Bench: McCarthy, Valery, Stephens, Jones, Turnbull, Højbjerg, Reed, Davis, Isgrove, Rodriguez, Austin. I wonder how much we can take from that squad as to who will be his starting 11 this season? McQueen in at LB presumably because Bertrand isn't ready to play yet, I know Targett went off in his last game. Martina at RB because Pied\Cedric not ready to play Yoshida because Fonte not ready to play and Gardos still injuryed. Fully fit squad GK Forster LB Bertrand CB Fonte CB Van Dijk RB Cedric M Claise M JWP M Romeu M Tadic ST Long ST Redmond I saw a quote from Claude saying he thinks Redmond can play as a striker (link below) "Puel note Nathan Redmond’s potential as a centre-forward. "He played always wide but I think he is a very good striker"" http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2016/08/02/eden-hazard-alexandre-lacazette-and-thierry-henry-show-claude-pu/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
