dubai_phil Posted 16 August, 2008 Share Posted 16 August, 2008 Looking forward to getting txt weather reports from ericorarabia. Shame about the press speculation about Davies, the fans seemed to have an air of "hopefully" excitement about them before last night. Let's hope we get a big crowd, a result and something to build on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintjay77 Posted 16 August, 2008 Share Posted 16 August, 2008 Is this game on Satanta? Cant wait for kick off. Looking forward to our kids surprising a few people. Dont think the result will go our way but if they turn a few of the pundits heads and show we have enough about us for this season I will be happy. Come on you Reds!!!!

Let's hope we get a big crowd, a result and something to build on I'm not so sure about the big crowd, I've just spoken to the ticket office, 17500 tickets sold including season tickets. They are expecting a total with walk ups of about 21000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revolution saint Posted 16 August, 2008 Share Posted 16 August, 2008 Decided to drive today, haven't seen saints sober for years, it will be a nice experience. UP THE SAINTS!!!!!!! It's not pleasant. Anyway, I'll be going. I missed the 1st game of the season last year for the first time in about 17 years last season so clearly saints need me. I'm looking forward to not recognising a lot of our players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happiness stan Posted 16 August, 2008 Share Posted 16 August, 2008 If we beat Brum, I will be excited about this team That's how I feel at the moment too.

SaintRobbie Posted 16 August, 2008 Share Posted 16 August, 2008 Right .... bugger this protest against Lowe, I'm going. I can't resist it. And, the team need all the support they can get if we're going to give Fulthorpe - and most importantly Shearer - the chance to surivive in this league once they are able to take over. COYR!

madruss Posted 16 August, 2008 Share Posted 16 August, 2008 Apparantly the average age of Arsenal's team today is 23 The average age of Saints anticipated starting line-up is also 23. Coincidence?

Minty Posted 16 August, 2008 Share Posted 16 August, 2008 THAT is a very strong team It is indeed, and not devoid of skill either... on paper, a very balanced and capable side that I would expect to be at or near the top, if they can gel (sorry, shouldn't use that word after last season!) Frankly, I'll be happy with a point today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minty Posted 16 August, 2008 Share Posted 16 August, 2008 Another good cross, just over John's head.
