So annoying.  Queued the other day to get tickets up in the gods.  Now there's new tickets down the front

You could contact the club and see if they’ll let you swap, don’t see why they wouldn’t.

It says on the OS they won’t make any changes. Annoying as I’m in the same position.

Ticket booked, all very easy this morning. Looks to be great position near halfway line - glad I messed up the other day and got caught up in meetings and missed getting one of the last few up in the gods 😅

Do you have cheaper tickets in upper tier? Genuine suggestion offer them on here, tickets can be transferred on app. Lower price might help some people then perhaps you can buy lower halfway line, guessing need more qualifying customer numbers to do that though

Talking to a fellow Saints fan at my kids school this morning, said he was driving up "as trains arent running" , I told him about additional services being put on from Central to Waterloo, journey takes a bit longer thats all, he had no idea. So a reminder on here: 

FA Cup - ADDITIONAL TRAINS - SOUTHAMPTON CENTRAL 

The following additional services to London Waterloo will operate:

DEP 0825 ARR 1023
DEP 0844 ARR 1044
DEP 0925 ARR 1122
DEP 0943 ARR 1144
DEP 1025 ARR 1225
DEP 1044 ARR 1244
DEP 1125 ARR 1326
DEP 1144 ARR 1343

All services are direct calling at Waterloo only.
A queuing system will be place to manage the amount that of customers on the platform. 

There will also be additional services returning to Southampton starting at 2039 and the last being 2320.

There are 10 of us so probably more hassle than it's worth but a good idea!

Wonder if they'll be any freebies inside the ground like the league cup final with those scarfs.  Will look amazing with yellow & blue scarfs flying...

Hopefully they do, remember something similar at Villa Park randomly when Russia invaded Ukraine 🇺🇦

I’m taking some right vintage yellow themed merch with me to Wembley. I’ve got  jo Tessems actual 2003 yellow long sleeved shirt, which is absolutely massive and also my mums saints knitted yellow and blue scarf from 76”. Managed to find my son a 2001 yellow kids 3rd shirt from the car boot on Sunday.. so we’re proper prepared!!  Let’s just hope city aren’t prepared and fail to turn up.

How on earth is a direct train from Soton to Waterloo taking 2 hours?

Because it goes via Havant due to engineering works between Basingstoke and Woking. 

The train leaves Southampton Central and goes 'directly' to Waterloo

We were originally sitting in the penultimate row up in the gods but I have just now bought two more tickets on the halfway line down near the pitch using my daughter's membership.

This now means that we have two tickets for sale if anybody is interested. They cost me £85 for the pair so any offers?

I bet there will be loads of yellow and blue scarves, flags etc being sold outside Wembley.  

Anyone else taking yellow and blue balloons up there?  I might stuff loads in my pocket then blow them up when I'm in there

Got mine this morning, but the cheeky bastards insisted I buy the membership for me and the missus, before it gave me access, despite lots of games already attended this season. Still, at least we've got membership now for the FA Cup Final and should we need it for the play-off final as well.  £90 seats still seem to be available - lower tier. ....but you obviously need to be a member. See you all there. COYS

Good for you. I will be wearing a yellow goalkeeper's shirt from our Friends Provident days. 

Old merch is the best!!!

Does anyone know when we should see tickets in the app? I cant see mine yet.

Wednesday. 

 

I see tickets are now available to anyone who's been to a game since 2021. 

 

If these don't shift the remaining tickets they should allow season ticket holders to buy extras.

I didn't need to be a member for the premium seats, but for me and my three lads it was £330 plus the booking fee. As well as the club are doing right now and as much as I wanted to go, that's mental money for a 90min football match.

The club shop doesn't have anything in yellow in my size 🫤

The only yellow shirt I have is from our 2003 FA Cup final day, I was 5 stone lighter with a waistline a good 6 inches smaller as well.  Irrespective, I will be wearing that shirt on Saturday,  so if you cop an old codger wearing a skin tight 2003 shirt with splits up both sides, and his belly hanging out, that'll be me.  Can't wait, bring it on.

See Rodri is a doubt with a groin strain picked up against Arsenal. Hopefully Pep won't risk him against us which will be good news.

Then we just have to hope another 10 get fucked over against Burnley then

640 tickets left now from the additional allocation,  £90 lower tier , sales at roughly 35k

Man City sales about 22k currently 

Assume as ticket delivery via app sales can remain open up to match day?

Yeah, I get what you say but Pep has frequently come said Rodri is a key player and they do not generally operate as well when he's missing.

So my DH Gate special turned up last week. Bright yellow, suspect halo, clearly a knock off. My predicament is do I wear this on Saturday? I have little else that’s yellow, my MUSH 2003 shirt has sadly been removed from my wardrobe. Or do I just get a yellow scarf once up there… decisions, decisions!!

Interesting because mine is spot on.  I bought it before our 3rd round match.  Perhaps they've rush produced more recently.

Just get a yellow scarf surely. Does it even matter that much if you’re wearing yellow?

                   Larin/Stewart 

kinda harsh to think of dropping azaz but he has looked sluggish last couple of games and might be better to go with the high energy three of downes jabser and Bragg here .. genuinely don’t mind out of Stewart and larin larin has been absolutely awesome tbh but Ross is super clinical and has played a big part in us getting this far so I wouldn’t be begrudge him starting if tonda decides that
