Might as well just book some train tickets to Croydon now before prices go up.

Went there for our FA Cup round 2 game in 2010 - freezing November afternoon/evening but good day out, won 3-2.

Be a proper scramble for tickets this.

Could well be, one or two extra away games might be the difference between getting a ticket for Portsmouth away or not.

The away end holds 972 seats, I reckon we'll sell out quite quickly.

I just meant because not many people will have done it before and it's a small allocation.

In 2010 we got some of the stand to the side as well and definitely more than 972 Saints fans there. Depends on how confident they are on selling out or not.

Kevin Nolan their manager these days.

They gave us extra when we played there in 2009, I'm pretty sure they gave us end behind goal and half side stand, I'd expect same again if needed as they won't fill it, was about 2000 we took up

They would have had to give them more for that though presumably as it was FA Cup?

All depends on how many they expect to sell.

[Mr Brightside]

Jeez I’m getting old. Just checked the team for the game in 2009. Graeme Murty! I don’t even remember him signing for us, let alone playing in that game - and I was there!

That was my memory of being there and it was 2009, not 2010 as I typed earlier.

Lallana scored one, Waigo possibly with the first and Hammond with the third. Defending was a bit sloppy at times. Good day out though. Our fans were singing to Akinfenwa 🎵 ‘you should have gone to KFC’ 🎵

Memories of my first ever game at The Dell in 1963 and a Saints 3-1 win. Did I really go along as a 9 y/o lad on my own? 🤔
