Didn't they learn anything from the ticket sales for the all-star match mooted around the time of Saints Aid ?

 

EDIT : Apparently yes, because it's free. Even so, not sure I can be bothered.

 

Are they charging Cortese Tax on them ?

Well for one NC wasn't here then and secondly it wasn't free.

 

Having said that the line about "tickets flying off the shelves" is a tad optimistic I think.

Yais, noted, and already edited. I suppose if I've recovered from the BBQ...

Yep free, sorry. Apparently haven't got enough time to post tickets out so have to collect in person.

 

 

Although the OS is at fault as well, says that tickets are on sale rather than available.

Never mind, however I note that the official line has changed since yesterday as this is advertised as "getting the promotion party started" whereas yesterday we were "not up yet but in a good place".

A few of my mates went to Staplewood on the way home and met the players. Had a few drinks with them etc. Cortese told them that they have lined up a game against the FA Cup final 2003 team and entry is free. Not sure if its true or not but thats what I was told.

 

;)

 

Ok it wasn't an FA Cup Final 03 team but close enough.

When will they announce the names of some of the 'stars'

 

They already have...

 

"Some of the names on show include the mainstays of our previous stint in the Premier League such as, Claus Lundekvam, Jason Dodd, Paul Jones and Egil Ostenstad, who will all be looking to prove that they've still got what it takes to mix it with the best of them!"

No mention of MLT but that doesnt mean he is not part of it yet. Granted the bridges have been burnt so possibly not a part of it and would defo be a shame if not. But the names released dont make a full team so plenty of time to add MLT and others in there.

 

What names not mentioned do most want to see in there?

 

Shilts or Flowers in goal?

Obviously players still contracted to clubs wont be there but it would be great to see Bridge and Beatie in there somehow.

Shearer possibly?

Any more?

Saturday is the big game for me' date=' i will p*ssed off if there is no celebration on that day[/quote']

 

Agreed,i sincerely hope they don't curb the celebrations etc,i will be well miffed.

 

Although it will also be nice for people that cannot attend the Walsall game to get a chance to show there appreciation and vice versa.

Hopefully both occasions will be equally celebratory.

All in all a bit of a bonus for all the fans who are going to the UK just for Saturday's match,as well as all of the others of course.

Hope they get a great turnout,then again I guess the club will make a little bit from the vending points,unless the beer is free as well....

I imagine the club sort of expect the pitch to be invaded on Saturday, so at the time they may struggle with a lap of honour

Hopefully the club will have the balls to invite MLT, would be odd having this sort of game without him there.

 

...but let's also remember that it's possible he was invited and declined.

I personally expect to see him there, I think the silence from the Cortese-bashing press says it all.

pitch invasion saturday might mess the pitch up tho ?

 

They will ask the fans to stay off the pitch so the players can do a lap of honour on Saturday and I guess the wall of stewards will be around the touchline.

I hope people allow the lap of honour to take place, invade the pitch when the players have finished if thats what they want to do :-)
