dune Posted 26 April, 2011 Share Posted 26 April, 2011 According to the online booking system blocks 44, 45, 46, 47, 48 (all upper) + block 1 (lower and upper) are on sale to home fans. Seems odd. Where will the wallsall fans be sitting? They must either have blocks 2 + 3 which must mean that block 1 can be accessed from the Northam turnstiles or they've got they're somewhere in blocks 44, 45, 46, 47, 48 (Lower) which would have to mean they've done something with the concourse to segregate away fans. Nicole has long wanted to move the away fans - is this it happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknrollman no2 Posted 26 April, 2011 Share Posted 26 April, 2011 I was told that block 43 was not being opened unless the demand is there.Also i doubt Walsall will take many fans,so perhaps they can be easily segregated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintmatt Posted 26 April, 2011 Share Posted 26 April, 2011 I wish they'd change it such that the only permanently and significantly empty section of the ground isn't always shown on the TV highlights!

They would never give blocks 2 and 3 to the away fans and sandwich them between home fans in blocks 1 and 4 - all four blocks use the same gates/concourse to start.

I was totally disgusted by a section in the top of block 42 and I am sure they drove a lot of their own fans not to sing second half. Waving their season tickets as they went up to their seats. Singing "sit down block 43" Shouting at that block that "your not the northam" when they dared to sing "we are the Northam over here." Singing "Nigel Adkins red and white army- we hate plastics" Are some of the examples...A bunch of total ****s who if they want to support a club that gets small gates they should **** off to Bompey as St Mary's would be a better place without them!!! They are so petty they will sing against their own supporters-even if they were there for their first game, who cares welcome to the fold and come back soon! To be honest I was fuming that our own supporters would do that sort of thing. Anyway block 42 was **** on Saturday and the Kingsland North consistantly outsung them..Probably as those knows were more interested in abusing their own.

This is not Man U plastic fans we are talking about here who don't even come from their home town, this is Southampton fans through and through who go to every game they can either afford or get time off work to attend or time from family commitments to attend so be nice to them and don't make stupid childish fools of your selves.

I'm at the top of block 42 and it was rather embarrassing. Quite how you can be a plastic when your watching Saints v Hartlepool in division 3 is beyond me. But hey... They were the bunch who thought that singing the name of Alan Pardew 4 games after he was sacked was support. We tend to have quite a good laugh most of the time, but I have got myself into bother on the occasions they have riled me. Maybe I should just be an Internet warrior and do what Saint-Fred does.

Pity we gave up on that really, would probably be 3 times as effective as an ASBO and half the cost. Bring back the stocks and the pillory say I.

This can be for loads of reasons not least available dosh travel costs where they live etc etc there was a guy in 41 Sat proud as fk to be there having his photo taken by his Mrs. I dont dont his circumstane but hope the attempted humour of a few block 42 has not put him off Rant over COYR lets make them all welcome ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problems being vocal from me. And there was me thinking I was the only unpopular one. "Hiiiiigh Five!" **SSOTN desperately fails in Borat attempt** JJ, 1086 here. Seems every man and his dog on here knows exactly who I am and thinks I'm a w*nker anyway, so those that didn't now do. I can't understand why they don't open up 43 every week, as barely any opposition beings enough fans to warrant it being shut and if it was a regular thing then it would get more and more vocal. The main problem of those who have a vendetta against anyone occupying a seat in 43 is that they sit down and are too busy eating their cheese and pickle sarnies to join in the super fast happy clap "I'm on speed so see if you can sing and clap as fast I f*****g can" 'Oh when the Saints go marching in'.
