StuRomseySaint Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 ... what will you be doing instead of watching Saints? I am thinking about playing football on Sundays, and generally more D.I.Y and walking the dog on a Saturday. Next season promises to be the most interesting for quite a few years. So..... what other plans do people have next season instead of wasting money on Saints? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StuRomseySaint Posted 16 March, 2009 Author Share Posted 16 March, 2009 How many season tickets will we shift? I reckon 5k next season at the most... I know most of the people who sit around me in the Northam are not renewing... I am looking forward to a football free season, I will go to a few of the decent away games and maybe a couple of home, but that's about it.

bjk Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 I'll still go whatever league we're in as i know when saturday comes i just cant bring myself to stay at home as despite how appalling its been for a long time now i'd miss it if i didn't go anymore.

Pat from Poole Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 I haven't been all season and haven't missed it at all. It's probably been less of a sacrifice given how poor the team are and the shambles of a board running the club being completely undeserving of any support. Depends on your circumstances, I guess, but being married with two kids, I've found plenty of other stuff to occupy my time. I still listen to most of the games on the radio (have to admit the coverage on Solent is superb) and retain a keen interest but doing this only takes up two hours on a Saturday, whereas the travelling from Poole, plus pre and post match beers meant that a home game used to take up pretty much all day for me. If I was single I'd probably still be going, to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Tender Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 It very much depends on whether Lowe and the Quisling still have anything to do with the club or not. If they are gone (fingers crossed), I will buy a ST and return to watching home games. If they are still here, I will probably go to some of the more local away games, Yeovil, Brighton, Swindon and maybe even Cheltenham and Bristol Rovers if they asre still in the third next season. If they are relegated, I can always catch them the following year when we are down in the fourth with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghq Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 I've just had a flashback to when Saints were relgated to the old div 3. Can't remember whether or not it was 3 south or not, but I seem to rmember the last away game of the year was at Notts Forest. We won 3-2 and the final game was against Blackburn Rovers and we won 5-1! I don't think I'm hallucinating, perhaps somebody will check. I also seem to remember that the average crowds in div 3 for Saints were around those we are getting this season. Which brings me to the thought that if we are relegated and draw crowds lower than those past days, it can only add to the further glory of the chosen one if he's still here. I hope if Lowe does go, that crowds will increase, but have a really bad feeling that we won't be rid of him for some time to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aintforever Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 I wont be renewing if Lowe or Wilde are still running the club regardless of what league we are in. I'm not too bothered about watching crap football. I refuse to help finance any more of Lowe's experiments, I think those who renew will actually be helping the demise of the club. The only way forward for SFC is to force these idiots out, admin or not IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Duckhunter Posted 16 March, 2009 Share Posted 16 March, 2009 I thought I was going to have to work Saturday, but in the end I didn't. It was too late to get tickets (not that I tried that hard) so decided to have a round of golf with a couple of mates. Had a throughly enjoyable day,*****il the football results came in), a few beers afterwards and it cost me less than a trip to SMS. The Mrs was happy as I was home earlier, and in a better state than normal, and my blood pressure was proberly a lot lower as well. Obviously the weather being nice made the round better( and I played ok) but started me thinking that there could be nicer things to do on a Saturday.

So..... what other plans do people have next season instead of wasting money on Saints? I can't think of anyone who Saints playing in L1 would affect less than you Stuey. Since when has quality of football got anything at all to do with how much enjoyment you get out of a Saturday afternoon. Your day is all about drinking at some god awful place like the Zeb bar before the match, arriving (late) at the match drunk. Leaving before the end of the first half to get a drink, getting back to your seat for the secnd half after the kick off and then leaving the match before it is over to get back to the pub. What goes on on the pitch is of far less interest to you than the excitement you gain from hearing that some of the yoof have been a bit 'nawty' as your role model Danny Dyer would say.... The rest of us will still be watching Saints play next season come what may. I'm sure you will only be missed in the Zeb bar..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
