Saint Samuel Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Would've preferred it on the Sunday, but that will do I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquidshokk Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Noticed a lot of people saying they would have preferred it on the sunday? Why? to get out of a day with the missus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintkiptanui Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Excellent, glad it's saturday and 12.45 still leaves plenty of time for some beers, take the missus to the spanish place on the front after the game and stay at the De'vere, everyones happy.

Saint Dave Posted 26 January, 2010 Author Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Surprised it is at 12.45pm kick off as I would have thought Hampshire Constabulary would have wanted a midday kick off, at least the poopey fans will be herded in and herded back out to Southampton Central. I so want us to win this one to erase the painful memories of that 4 - 1 defeat at Crap Nottarf when we got relegated from the Premiership.

Rut Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Saturday. That'll do nicely. 7.45am here. 99% certain TV game on Setanta USA. Not too early for a few beers and then have the rest of the day to celebrate. What are you other USA Saints planning on doing? 4.45am on the West Coast - do you stay up all night or set your alarm clock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Dave Posted 26 January, 2010 Author Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Aha, The Football Association set the original time at 12.45pm, pretty sure Hants. Constabulary forced the change to 12.30pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saints_is_the_south Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Would have thought the pubs in the city centre will open? Maybe not Yates as they are close to where the OB will be escorting the skates from & to the station. Places like the standing order...etc down the bottom of town will still be open I'd imagine.

Barry the Badger Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 YES!!! Get in there! I am going away on the Sunday and whilst I would have still made the game I would not have been able to have a few beers and would have had to go straight after. Now I can make a day of it. Awesome.

hamster Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Doubt it'll be open TBH. Yep, the Fleming in Mansbridge reckon they'll be closed to deter people from having a quiet beer and a relaxing walk to the stadium through Riverside Park.

brianoneils slidingtackle Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Is there any thought that the attendance for the MK game will be affected, two important games in one week, I was hoping that we would get 25K + for the MK game, but that looks unlikely now...Im going to both because its my patriotic duty as a True Saint, but lots wont be able to afford both..v expensive this football business..

suewhistle Posted 26 January, 2010 Share Posted 26 January, 2010 Well, 12.30 isn't too bad. I was over for the first match of the season against Millwall with a 12.45 KO and managed two (er 3) pints. I suppose the problem will be finding one open, but if you are a regular will it be that much of a problem? Perhaps a drink beforehand and a quiet word with the landlord/lady? Anyway, Saturday is fine as I won't miss our away match to Cavallermaggiore.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think we will get 25k+ for MK Dons. After season ticket sales for the Pompey game, if the club have any sense then they'll state that to buy a ticket for Portsmouth you also need to go to 1 of Stockport or MK Dons, that would ensure full houses at either of those games.

My missus (Norwich fan) wants to go to this game, but I said I may only get one ticket for it, and leave the others for true Saints fans. Had it been on Valentines Day, I'd never have heard the end of it! I'll still be in the dog house (if I get my ticket), but at least I'll be able to dig my way out of it by Valentines Day!
